Whatever your reason or goal, liposuction can provide stunning results that will leave you smiling. While men tend to gain weight around the waist, women tend to gain it in the buttocks. The procedure known as liposuction can make you smile instead of groaning when looking in the mirror.
Liposuction, Reshaping The Buttocks
The buttocks are one of the first areas to go out of shape on both sexes, but with women in particular. If you are in this situation, liposuction may offer a solution.
Anatomically, the buttocks act as a protective fatty pad that allows each of us to balance and sit.
The Greeks in particular produced numerous statues and paintings prominently featuring the buttocks as the aesthetic of the art. They even had a word to describe the perfect buttocks: callipygian, which came from the Greek words for beautiful rump
There are a variety of reasons to consider liposuction on the buttocks. One problem area of the buttocks includes the sacral fat pad, a bulge of fatty material located just above the buttocks in the lower back area.
Surgeons consider this pad to actually be part of the buttocks, and liposuction can remove unsightly excesses in the area.
Another problem area on the buttocks is the banana-shaped bulge, located just below the buttocks above where the hip meets the buttock area. Doctors will use a small cannula when working on the area, as larger tubing can cause ripples and bumps in the buttocks. A third area people look to address is the crease in the horizontal plain of the buttocks to create a more defined look.
