Butt Lift in Pakistan

Butt lift is most often carried out under general anesthesia. An incision is applied along your lower back from one butt to the other. The excessive skin and adipose tissue are removed through this incision lifting your butts up. The rest of the fat is redistributed and the skin is tightened. Incisions are stitched and surgical tapes are used to provide additional support. Bandages are applied to the wound. Drainage tubes are inserted to remove excess fluid and blood.

Butt lift is a 2-5 hours long surgery and will require at least 1-2 nights stay in the hospital, although in some cases you can be discharged on the same day. Even after being discharged, you have to stay in Pakistan for at least 10-14 days for follow-ups. During this period, your health is strictly monitored, you are given medicines to help you with pain and to prevent infections. Stitches are removed after 7-10 days. If everything is fine during this time, you are free to travel home.

In total, 4-6 weeks of recovery time is required before getting back to your normal routine, so avoid excessive and unnecessary activities during this period. There will be bruising and swelling around the operated area which subsides gradually after a few days. You can start office work 10 days after post-op if your job does not require long periods of sitting time - if it does, just be sure to move around as much as possible.

The recovery time can vary according to your health, environment, and daily routine. You can start driving after 4-6 weeks but do not travel long distances as it will require you to sit for too long. Scars take much longer to fade away. In 4-6 months, you should expect to have fully recovered.

The following are some points which should be considered for your aftercare:

• Quit smoking and drinking because tobacco and alcohol slow down blood circulation hence slowing down your recovery.
• Avoid sitting for long periods for at least a week after the procedure.
• Avoid such positions which can put a strain on your scars. It can re-open your wound.
• Change your dressing regularly to avoid infection.
• Take prescribed pain killers and antibiotics to relieve pain and prevent infection.
• Wear some supporting garments for the early few weeks.  
• Use scar cream to massage your scars. It will speed up their fading.
• Do not lift children and heavy objects.
• Avoid climbing up the stairs.
• Avoid exercise, gym, swimming, and other strenuous activities for several weeks.
• Abstain from sexual activity until allowed by your doctor.
• Start taking small steps the next day after going through the surgery to prevent blood clot formation.

Butt lift is a highly successful and long-lasting procedure. An ideal weight should be maintained to keep the results of your surgery consistent. It is found to be far more successful than the Brazilian butt lift surgery, which has lead to patient deaths - unlike the Butt Lift surgery, which has not recorded any fatalities. The vast majority of patients are extremely happy with not only the results of the procedure but with the entire process leading up to and following the surgery. 

The operation should never be the foremost option and consider all other options first. Following are some non-surgical alternatives to butt lift surgery:

• Fillers: these are getting a lot of fame these days. Fillers such as Restylane, Sculptra, etc. are injected into your buttocks, making them look plump and lifted without surgery. They induce collagen production in your buttocks. Sculptra is found to be most effective for this purpose. It is advantageous as it has no downtime.
• Hydrogel buttock shots: hydrogel injections give your butt a rounded contour along with a lift. But they are not usually recommended.
• Liposuction: in this method, adipocytes are removed from your butts through injections to give them a more toned appearance. This fat can be injected at other places of your body if required.
• Exercise: some exercises, such as squats will help to change the shape of your butts, tighten them, and lift them up without surgery.
