Butt Lift Case Study

A posterior butt lift is designed to tighten the skin and eliminate the loose skin that hangs above the buttocks. Tightening this skin elevates the tissues in the buttocks; thus, improving its shape. A butt lift can be performed alone or with other procedures that are commonly included in a total body lift.

Dr. Thomas S. Guillot frequently performs posterior butt lift procedures in Baton Rouge to address low hanging buttocks and/or loose skin directly above the buttocks.
Traditional vs Brazilian
Guillot recommends:
Upper Butt Lift Surgery
This surgery involves an incision across the top of the buttocks. This incision allows Dr. Guillot to access underlying tissue. During the procedure, he will remove or reposition excess tissue.
Butterfly Butt Lift
This lift gets its name from the type of incision plastic surgeons use to access underlying tissue. The incision begins at the central crease of the buttock, moving up and outward. Dr. Guillot can tighten sagging tissue with this technique; however, repositioning or actually lifting the buttocks is typically performed using other butt lift techniques.
Lower Butt Lift Surgery
Individuals suffering from mild to moderate sagging may be a good candidate for a lower butt lift with Dr. Guillot in Baton Rouge. During this procedure, Dr. Guillot removes unwanted tissue through an incision at the bottom of the buttocks. Once complete, he moves the crease at the bottom of the buttocks upward. Although a traditional lift leaves scars, Dr. Guillot places the incisions in less visible areas.
