Gluteoplasty is the intervention to lift the buttocks and is used in cases of significant weight loss (post-bariatric).
Gluteoplasty or buttock lift is performed when there is an excess of skin and fat in those areas of the body, produced as a result of a significant weight loss, and is done through surgical excision of skin. This surgery is performed to elevate this area of the body, rounding off its shape and giving it a slender appearance.

Gluteoplasty or buttock lift is indicated in all patients who have previously undergone bariatric surgery or surgery for obesity and present an excess of skin and tissues that produce significant deformities.
Our recommendation is that the patient has already stabilized his weight, leads a healthy life, combining a balanced diet and physical exercise. After this intervention, a higher proportion is observed in that part of the body and an increase in self-esteem.
Dr. Jesús Lago has extensive experience in this type of intervention.
No. Augmentation gluteoplasty in people who have elastic tissues is performed with prosthesis by intergluteal and intramuscular route. In a person who has a massive loss of weight we use autologous tissue (skin and fat from the same patient) to avoid the placement of prosthesis which will help us to raise the subgluteal fold.
Generally, yes. The most common interventions when there has been a great loss of weight are usually mastopexy and abdominoplasty, but if the person has suffered a massive loss of weight and needs a gluteoplasty it is because he also needs the rest of the post bariatric interventions and they are usually combined in the same surgery.
Basically rest and avoid significant physical activity for a while as these are delicate operations and sutures that require long periods of healing.
The fundamental advantage is that no prosthesis is used, thus avoiding the long-term risks of wearing a prosthesis (breakage, encapsulation, etc.). By using autologous tissue, in the long term this tissue is integrated and forms part of the organism like any other tissue.
