Certain exercises can help improve the appearance of the buttocks, but these efforts do not always produce the volumizing results that people want.* Fat grafting, also known as “fat transfer,” is a revolutionary procedure that removes unwanted fat using liposuction from one area of the body and transfers it to another area for augmentation, such as the buttocks.*
This procedure has the double benefit of slimming particular regions of the body while providing volume to another feature of the body.* A study titled “Gluteoplasty with Autologous Fat Tissue” published in October 2013 in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery®, the official Journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, found that fat transfer produces highly satisfactory results for buttock augmentation.
The Study
The participants of this study were 58 women who underwent butt augmentation procedures with the fat transfer method. Liposuction was used to harvest fat from the flanks, thighs, saddlebags, and sub-gluteal region. The fat was then purified and strategically injected to add volume and definition to the buttocks while improving the shape. The patients were asked to report on their level of satisfaction with the procedure.
The Results
No major complications developed from the participants’ procedures. And all the women achieved more shapely and attractive bodies. Of the 58 participants, 57 of them (98 percent) reported being “very satisfied” with their results after the procedure. One patient was unsatisfied with her results because the injected fat was naturally resorbed by her body and did not provide the desired volume. However, after additional fat grafting was performed, she reported that she was satisfied with her results.*

What is another Option for Patients with Not Enough Fat for Fat Grafting?
Harper’s Bazaar was America’s first fashion magazine when it debuted in 1867. And it continues to be a prominent resource for sophisticated insight into the world of style, beauty, and popular culture. On April 4th, 2014, Harper’s Bazaar released their Bazaar’s Hot List: 24 doctors on the cutting edge, and Dr. Mendieta is humbled to be on this list of “The Best Beauty Surgeons.”
Personal reference is one of the best ways that people find reputable plastic surgeons. This is because someone they know and trust is evidence of the doctor’s skill and experience.*
According to the article, “this list is composed of doctors whose names are currently being whispered at dinner parties and texted between friends,” (which means these surgeons have provided exceptional results for their previous patients and are experts in their field).*
The Butt Doctor: Mendieta
The first of the three doctors listed under Florida’s best surgeons, Constantino G. Mendieta is called “a pioneer in the field of buttock augmentation.” Dr. Mendieta integrates traditional approaches with the latest in procedural and technological advances to provide superior butt augmentation results.
As a world-renowned plastic surgeon, Dr. Mendieta has studied under global legends and innovators in the field of plastic surgery. And he has also taught on body contouring techniques all over the globe.
The introduction to this list of the best plastic surgeons correctly states that, while non-surgical treatments are on the rise, “going under the knife remains the gold standard if you’re looking to significantly rejuvenate your face and body.”
If you are interested in undergoing plastic surgery in Florida, please call 305-860-0717 or fill out our online consultation form to schedule your consultation. Dr. Constantino G. Mendieta is board certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and a member of both The American Society for Aesthetic Surgery (ASAPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). He is experienced in performing a wide range of procedures and is dedicated to providing his patients with safe and effective results.
When will we, as a society, learn? Only a qualified plastic surgeon should perform surgery, especially when it comes to a delicate, complex procedure such as butt augmentation.* Unfortunately, however, in the past few years more and more cases of illegal surgeries have popped up. In December 2009, I addressed the saddening death of Miss Argentina, the then 37-year old Solange Magnano, after undergoing a butt enhancement procedure. Although the circumstances that surrounded this event are unknown, there were reports that a liquid-type injection was used for her enhancement.*
The Black Madam in Philadelphia
A few months ago we learned about Philadelphia’s Padge Windslowe (a.k.a. “The Black Madam”). As reported on USAtoday.com back in mid-May, Windslowe “used silicone from Thailand and Krazy Glue to perform at-home cosmetic surgery that left an exotic dancer with a plump derriere — and potentially deadly complications…”
This article also reported that Philadelphia police believed Padge performed at least 14 cosmetic surgery procedures (at “pumping parties”), moving locations to avoid being caught.*
There are so many dangers when going to a non-plastic surgeon for a surgical procedure.*
Some of these so-called ‘doctors’ lie and say they are surgeons. While others openly admit it. In both instances, there are individuals who still undergo surgery with these people. Either these prospective patients are unaware of that person’s background (due to their lack of research), or they do not understand the risk they are putting themselves at if they decide to go to a “doctor” with a lack of experience, knowledge, and skills.*
A Botched Job Could Cause Disfigurement!
I am very passionate about providing my patients with a safe, rewarding plastic surgery experience. Which is why I want everyone to understand that a board certified plastic surgeon is the best person to go to for buttock augmentation.*
I have extensive experience in this procedure; having lectured throughout the world on my signature fat grafting technique. The saying “Your body is your temple” is true! So please consider this before turning to a non-medical practitioner just because they offer you a cheap procedure. A botched job could cause disfigurement, a medical problem, or even death. Do your research and be smart!*
