Before & After Buttock Enhancement
*Actual Patient Disclaimer: there is no guarantee of specific results and the results can vary.
In Dr. Morwood's Words:
part of the goal is to give someone a more narrow waist and flanks, as well as a more hourglass figure as we harvest fat from those areas and transpose to the breast or buttocks.

Enhance Your Curves and Improve Body Proportions
Buttock enhancement improves your body proportions by increasing projection, refining contour, and creating more balanced curves between your waist, hips, and buttocks. Dr. Morwood evaluates the foundation, focusing on shaping the lower back, flanks, and abdomen to narrow the waist and enhance the silhouette. From there, enhancement may include fat grafting using your own living, breathing fat cells, lifting procedures, or implants. Each technique is selected based on your anatomy, goals, and desired level of projection.
Buttock Enhancement Treats:
- Flat or under-projected buttocks
- Loss of volume following weight loss or aging
- Poor body proportions between the waist, hips, and buttocks
- Lack of curves or an imbalanced silhouette
- Excess fat in the lower back, flanks, and abdomen
- Contour irregularities or asymmetry of the buttocks
- Sagging or descent of the buttocks due to skin laxity
- Small contour deformities from prior injections, injury, or infection
Common Techniques Included in a Buttock Enhancement Performed by Dr. Morwood
Shaping
Shaping focuses on the foundation of buttock enhancement by improving your proportions. Dr. Morwood uses liposuction to sculpt the lower back, flanks, and sides of the abdomen, removing redundant fat pads and narrowing the waist. 360 liposuction enhances your silhouette, making your hips and buttocks appear wider and more defined through improved balance.
Augmentation
Augmentation with fat increases projection and volume using your own tissue. After shaping the surrounding areas, Dr. Morwood uses the harvested fat to enhance the buttocks, creating fuller, more natural curves. This allows for a customized increase in size while maintaining balanced contours that complement your overall body proportions and desired aesthetic outcome.
Fat Grafting
Fat grafting involves transposing living, breathing fat cells from one area of your body to another. These cells are carefully processed and placed into the deep subcutaneous fat space of the buttocks, where they can take root, regain blood supply, and become incorporated into surrounding tissue. Over-correction is typically performed to account for any volume loss.
Lifting
Lifting improves position and firmness when sagging or skin laxity is present. Dr. Morwood may use an open approach, removing excess skin through a carefully placed incision to elevate the buttocks. In some cases, underlying subcutaneous fat is preserved and repositioned to add projection, resulting in improved contour and a more youthful, balanced silhouette.
Buttock Enhancement FAQs
How Do You Determine the Right Size and Shape for Your Buttocks?
Choosing the right size is a personal decision. Dr. Morwood considers your body proportions, including the relationship between your waist, hips, and buttocks. In general, a narrower waist with balanced hips and bust creates an attractive silhouette. During consultation, you will discuss your goals so a custom-designed approach can be developed.
Will Fat Grafting Results Last Over Time?
Fat grafting uses living, breathing fat cells that take root in their new position. These cells regain their blood supply and become part of your body. Approximately 67% of the transposed volume will persist. These cells can increase in size if you gain weight and decrease if you lose weight.
What Happens After Fat Grafting to the Buttocks?
After surgery, you will rest for the first three days and gradually increase activity. Sitting on your buttocks for more than 20 minutes at a time is prohibited for three weeks to allow the fat grafts to take root. You may lie on your side or stomach during this initial recovery period.
