Buttock lift with threads. What is “filament lifting”?

November 12, 2020

Every woman has had dreams of large and attractive buttocks at least once in her life.

Especially after watching the video with the fiery mamba. So rhythmic, so sexy, so inviting, you can’t take your eyes off it. I wish I had one like this... Agree, these thoughts visited your head too.

But let's be honest with ourselves, mamba, samba and lambada are not so much about size (although it does matter), but rather about the structural features of the body, strength and proportions - thin waist, flexible back muscles, legs obedient to the rhythm. And then yes, you can’t take your eyes off the buttocks, that’s for sure.

The body of a woman of the Caucasian race is of a different build, and large buttocks sometimes only make the figure heavier, making it pyramidal not only in structure, but also in massiveness and fundamentality. This is good for the Egyptian pyramids, but why do we need it?

Actually, many men agree with this, it’s not about size, but about seductive shape, elasticity and mobility.

What is lipofilling?

This is a non-invasive, gentle and low-traumatic procedure for transplanting the patient’s own fat tissue from one area of ​​the body to another. Typically, the donor areas are the waist (lower back), abdomen and hips. It is in them that the most fat accumulates, which requires removal. In this way, not only the lack of shape in the desired part of the body is compensated, but the rest are also corrected.

The essence of the procedure is simple. It comes down to the fact that the required volume of material is first selected, and then filtered, clearing it of impurities. And only then it is used to model the buttocks, distributing the implanted fatty tissue in the subcutaneous layer. The aesthetic effect of this method is stunning, since the preliminary result is visible almost immediately. Using this method, you can easily and quickly become the owner of appetizing shapes.

Types of threads

• Made from polylactic acid (absorbable). Gradually dissolving in the tissues, these threads form lactic acid, which stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin, as well as metabolic processes. After the thread disintegrates, a collagen-elastin framework remains that supports the tissue. The resorption process takes about 9 months.
• Polypropylene (non-absorbable). They have microscopic notches, due to which they reliably hold the tissue in the desired position. They are hypoallergenic and non-rejection free.
• Mesothreads (absorbable). They are used not for correction, but for the prevention of tissue ptosis, since they do not have notches. During the resorption process, they stimulate the production of elastin and collagen, creating a natural supporting frame.

The effect of lipofilling on the human body

This procedure has a positive effect on the condition of the body. Firstly, body shapes are corrected and ideal proportions are modeled. Secondly, a biologically compatible substance is introduced - one’s own fat cells, a natural material. As a result, after lipofilling of the buttocks, no allergic manifestations are observed, and recovery is relatively quick and easy.

Plastic surgery with one's own fat deposits is recognized as one of the safest cosmetic methods. The beneficial effect of this technology is the involuntary correction of the figure in those places where fat is taken from. Therefore, the result of the work done is not only the correct contours of the upper third of the legs, aesthetically attractive shapes of the buttocks, but also a slim body.

Buttocks for a year or two

Let's tell you a secret, at conferences of plastic surgeons they usually show the results of “fresh” lipofilling operations. In reality, two or at most three years pass and the buttocks often take their previous shape. However, you can still have time to take photos at the Brazilian carnival.

The result of installing implants is much more stable, but there is one problem with them - they can only be installed in the upper part of the buttocks.

This is exactly what you should learn about at a consultation with a plastic surgeon if you decide to have a “Brazilian butt.”

Performing lipofilling of the buttocks

This procedure can be performed starting from the age of 25 (or even earlier) for persons who have:

• smoothed buttocks (not convex);
• lack of fat deposits in the gluteal area;
• abnormal shape of the buttocks due to illness, injury or hereditary factors;
• ugly and shapeless buttocks due to a deficiency of muscle-fat tissue;
• asymmetrical shape of the buttocks;
• flabbiness of the skin.

In addition, lipofilling of the marked area can be carried out according to personal requirements, so that the buttocks get a more fashionable and attractive shape. To do this, the material is first taken, then it is cleaned and uniformly injected. Access is through pre-prepared mini-punctures under the buttocks or between them (in natural folds).

What problems can be solved and what methods are there?

The main indication for the use of buttock lifting is sagging skin, ptosis (drooping) of soft tissues. If the problem is severe, it will, of course, not be possible to cope with it without sports activities; a complex intervention works best. Consult a cosmetologist - he will help you choose the best solution for your case.

Thread lifting and injection of fillers based on hyaluronic acid are very popular. These methods work in different ways - lifting the buttocks with threads allows you to give the tissues the desired position and fix them in this position. Fillers effectively fight sagging and help fill the missing volume.

In addition, preparations based on hyaluronic acid significantly improve the quality of the skin - if you are worried about “orange peel”, wrinkles, stretch marks, this method is best suited. Buttock augmentation with injections will not give the same pronounced effect as surgery, but it will lift “tired” tissue.

RF lifting also shows good results - in this case, the deep layers of the skin are exposed to radio wave rays. Aikun laser gives a similar effect - after exposure to radiation on the deep layers of the dermis, the skin becomes more elastic, smooth, scars and stretch marks become less noticeable.

Separately, it is worth dwelling on the myostimulation procedure. As a result of the action of the current, the muscles to which the electrodes are attached contract, resulting in a load comparable to sports. Blood supply improves, tissues receive more oxygen, and the appearance of the buttocks noticeably improves.

If necessary, correction methods can be combined - they do not contradict each other (but you usually need to pause between procedures).

After the procedure

You should adhere to strict restrictions: do not wear high-heeled shoes, do not sleep on your back, do not exercise, do not visit steam rooms, saunas, baths. It is also necessary to wear compression garments (medical compression shorts or tights), apply compresses to the operated area, and follow a diet.

At first, swelling and discomfort occur, but they disappear within 2-3 days. After 5 days, all complications disappear, tissues begin to recover. In some cases, the rehabilitation period takes 1.5 weeks, in others - 1 month or more. It all depends on the amount of work performed, the age of the patient and the condition of the skin.
