Buttock Lift
Lift, firm and reshape the buttocks surgically
A buttock lift removes the sagging skin and tissue that develops after significant weight loss, pregnancy or ageing. Unlike a Brazilian Butt Lift which adds volume, a buttock lift focuses on firmness and elevation — producing a tighter, more defined posterior contour.
The procedure involves an incision placed in the natural crease below the buttocks or at the upper buttock-waist junction, through which excess skin is excised and the remaining tissue is elevated and secured. It can be combined with liposuction for additional contouring of the surrounding hip and thigh area.
Key Benefits
- Significant lift and firming of a sagging or flat buttock
- Removal of excess skin following weight loss
- Improved contour across the buttock, hip and upper thigh
- Lasting result maintained with stable body weight
Is This Treatment Right For You?
- Patients with excess, sagging buttock skin after significant weight loss
- Individuals whose buttocks have lost firmness and position with age
- Post-bariatric surgery patients seeking body contouring
- Adults at a stable, healthy weight with good skin elasticity remaining
What to Expect

Excess skin excised and remaining tissue elevated and sutured; typically 2–3 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where are the scars placed?
Scars are positioned in natural body creases or along the underwear line, making them easily concealable.
Is a buttock lift the same as a BBL?
No — a lift removes excess skin and tightens; a BBL uses fat grafting to add volume. They can be combined when appropriate.
