In our society, having a youthful and attractive appearance can be highly beneficial – and this doesn’t only apply to women. The consensus that plastic surgery patients are all women is no longer true; due to a large increase in the number of men who have undergone plastic surgery over the last few years.
In fact, according to The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, men underwent almost 1 million cosmetic procedures in 2012, and male cosmetic surgery has increased over 106 percent since 1997.
The most popular surgical procedures for men in 2012 were:
Most Common Reasons Men are Getting Plastic Surgery
The most common reasons why men undergo plastic surgery are to improve their appearance; and to stay competitive in the job market. Men often desire to look more youthful, fit, and masculine to improve many areas of their lives. And plastic surgery can help achieve these goals.
Improvements in appearance can boost self-confidence. As a result, confidence is often noticed by others and met with positive reception.* People often judge others based on their appearance, whether consciously or subconsciously. Studies have shown that more attractive people have better odds of landing a job or promotion. Men are increasingly turning to cosmetic surgery to get an edge on the competition and enhance their lives.
Dr. Mendieta understands the difficulties his male patients face in regards to their appearance, and his extensive training and knowledge allow him to tailor the procedures to meet the individual needs of his patients.* He offers a variety of aesthetic procedures to improve the appearance of the chest, love handles, stomach, and butt specifically for men.*
Butt enhancement surgery can be performed to achieve a rounder, voluminous buttocks with a more attractive contour.* There are a couple of different techniques that can be used for the surgery. Patients have the option of butt augmentation with fat transfer; or butt augmentation with implants.
Liposuction and Butt Fat Transfer
The fat transfer lipo method (aka: “autologous fat grafting”) involves removing fat from one area of the patient’s body via liposuction; and then injecting it into the buttocks. However, patients without enough excess fat to be used for grafting will need silicone butt implants to achieve the more voluptuous derriere they desire.*
Once the method of butt augmentation has been decided, I will also give my patients the option of further contouring their buttocks; and surrounding areas with liposuction. Liposuction can be combined with butt augmentation surgery for a more comprehensive enhancement of the patient’s posterior.
The Mendieta Technique
When I was studying under the doctors who developed the Brazilian Butt Lift technique, they did not offer liposuction on areas of the butt to further contour it. Rather, they just took fat from other areas of the body and used it to augment the buttocks. I realized that if certain areas of the buttocks and legs also had liposuction (which could also be combined with the butt implant method), it would further enhance the overall appearance of the patient’s backside.*
A more shapely rear can be achieved by removing excess fat from above, below, or on the sides of the buttocks.*
Patients that have a flat backside (with excess fat in the upper outside part of the buttocks) can benefit from liposuction. This will help to improve the wide appearance of their behind. And will also draw more attention to the round projection of their resulting rear-end; and a more attractive shape.*
Some patients who desire more volume in the buttocks have excess fat in the inner and outer thighs. This detracts from the aesthetics of their posterior. Liposuction in these areas can provide more slender legs that lead up to their newly shaped backside.*
If there is a droopy appearance from excess fat in the lower butt or upper outer thighs, liposuction can be performed in these areas (concurrently with the butt augmentation procedure). This is done in order to correct the “dirty diaper look” and procure a more lifted appearance.*
La cirugía del aumento de los glúteos se puede realizar para adquirir un una parte trasera más voluminosa y redondeada con un contorno y atractiva apariencia. Existen un par de técnicas que pueden ser usadas en este tipo de cirugía: los pacientes tienen la opción del aumento de los glúteos con la transferencia de la grasa o el aumento de los glúteos con implantes.*
El transferencia de grasa o “injerto autólogo de grasa”, es un método que consiste transferir grasa de una área del cuerpo del paciente a través de una liposucción y se inyecta en la parte de los glúteos. Sin embargo aquellos pacientes que no cuentan con exceso de grasa para que se pueda injertar, necesitaran implantes de silicona en los glúteos para lograr un derriere mucho más voluminoso, como el que ellos desean. Una vez que se haya decidido por el método del aumento de los glúteos, también se les da la opción de una liposucción para ayudar al contorno de estos y las aéreas alrededor de los glúteos.*
La liposucción se puede combinar con la cirugía del aumento de los glúteos para tener un aumento más integral de la parte trasera de los pacientes. Cuando estaba estudiando bajo la dirección del doctor que desarrollo la técnica de Levantamiento y Agrandamiento de los Glúteos Estilo Brasileño, ellos no ofrecían la liposucción como parte de la cirugía en el área de los glúteos o aéreas cercanas a este. En lugar de esto ellos solo tomaban grasa de algunas aéreas del cuerpo y la utilizaban para aumentar los glúteos. Yo llegue a la conclusión de que si algunas aéreas de los glúteos, y las piernas se sometían a una liposucción, combinándolo con la técnica del injerto o transferencia de la grasa, esto podría ayudar a realzar la apariencia en general de los glúteos.*
Para poder alcanzar una apariencia más atractiva, se puede lograr a través de la succión del exceso de grasa de la parte superior, inferior, o de los lados de los glúteos.*
Aquellos pacientes que tiene una parte trasera plana y con exceso de grasa en la parte superior de los glúteos, se pueden beneficiar con una liposucción para mejorar la apariencia ancha de la parte trasera. Esto atraerá mas la atención a la apariencia mucho mas redonda de su trasero, resultando en una apariencia mucho más atractiva.*
Para aquéllos pacientes que desean mucho más volumen en los glúteos y tienen exceso de grasa en la parte interna de los muslos, la cual le resta atractivo a su estética de la parte posterior. La liposucción en esta área proveerá unas piernas más esbeltas lo que realzara sus nuevos y atractivos glúteos.*
Si existe una apariencia de glúteos caídos por el exceso de grasa en la parte inferior de los glúteos o en la parte superior de los muslos, la liposucción es la respuesta para a este problema. La liposucción en estas aéreas en conjunto con el aumento de los glúteos, para poder corregir esa apariencia de “de pañal sucio” y procurar una apariencia más elevada de los glúteos.*
Con todas las técnicas y procedimientos del levantamiento de los glúteos, yo realizare una evaluación completa del cómo y el donde los glúteos deben ser arreglados en relación con el resto del cuerpo del individuo para, que pueda adquirir los mejores resultados estéticos. Para conocer más acerca de las técnicas del aumento de los glúteos o para programar una consulta, por favor llame a mi consultorio el centro de cirugía en Miami, Florida al (305) 860-0717 o llene una forma de consulta.*
