What Is Buttock Cupping?

Butt cupping, or vacuum butt therapy, is a non-invasive therapeutic treatment that uses suction cups on the buttocks to boost circulation and lift the tissues for a toned, smooth result. By suctioning the tissue, the layers of skin and muscle are drawn upward, promoting blood flow and lymphatic drainage and relieving muscle tension, resulting in a non-surgical butt enhancement.

What Does Butt Cupping Do?

Butt cupping is sometimes called a non-surgical butt lift, but that’s not exactly true. It primarily improves blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, both of which help flush toxins and reduce the appearance of cellulite. Here are some possible effects of butt cupping:

  • Increased blood flow: Suction stimulates circulation, which helps deliver more oxygen and nutrients to the skin and tissues. This can result in healthier skin and a reduced appearance of cellulite.
  • Increased lymphatic drainage: Lymphatic drainage is the body’s natural process for removing toxins and excess fluid. When the lymphatic system is working properly, the body is less bloated and puffy. The suction encourages the lymphatic system to function more effectively, reducing swelling and bloating in the area.
  • Muscle stimulation: The buttocks contain strong muscle groups, and butt cupping can help stimulate them, similar to a deep-tissue massage. This can help tone and firm the muscles, providing a subtle lift.
  • Temporary lifting effect: Immediately after butt cupping, the buttocks look more plump and lifted.
  • Improved skin texture: The health benefits of butt cupping include an improved skin texture, as increased blood circulation helps cell turnover. It also breaks down fatty deposits, resulting in a smoother appearance.

What Will My Butt Look Like After Butt Cupping?

Before your butt cupping session, your behind may be flat, pale, and lackluster. You may have an uneven texture or noticeable dimpling due to cellulite and fat deposits.

After your butt cupping appointment, your buttocks will appear slightly more plump, rounded, and firm, with a noticeable flush from the increase in blood flow. Your skin may appear smoother, but long-term reduction of cellulite and fat disruption requires multiple sessions. Your skin will also be softer and smoother, as the treatment exfoliates it.

Butt Cupping FAQs

Can butt cupping increase the size of my butt?

Not exactly. Butt cupping can temporarily make your butt rounder and more lifted, but it does not increase fat or muscle. A Brazilian Butt Lift is recommended for those who want more permanent, noticeable results.

How does butt cupping compare to surgical butt enhancement?

Butt cupping is non-invasive and provides temporary, visible results, including lifting and plumping. If you are interested in improving circulation and reducing muscle tension, butt cupping is ideal.

Surgical butt enhancement is entirely different. A BBL is ideal for patients who want a permanent increase in the size and roundness of the buttocks. This procedure permanently relocates fat cells to the butt for a permanent enhancement.

A BBL is the ultimate procedure for reshaping, lifting, and contouring the buttocks, as transferred fat remains in the new location, unless removed by liposuction or diet and exercise.
