The procedure can be performed using your own body fat. This way, it eliminates the risk of any major complications. The procedure is as follows-
The technique involves:

• Fat extraction using Liposuction
• Processing of the fat
• Reinjection of fat droplets
• Fat extraction is performed using Liposuction. Liposuction extracts fat from certain fat deposit areas. It is usually done with the help of a sterilized, hollow, thin, surgical tube inserted into the body to extract fat. This fat will later be used to graft the buttocks. Smaller fat particles allow better fat grafting. Therefore, usually a 3mm cannula is used for the grafting process as compared to a 5mm one. It allows finer results though it may take more time for the extraction process as compared to a bigger cannula.
• Liposuction alone can give you a leaner, more attractive outlook. During fat extraction, the buttock is first contoured in the areas around the buttocks to make them look more prominent.
• Fat processing involves decanting and centrifugation. The fat sucked from the unwanted areas of the body is carefully processed and purified by the process of decanting and centrifugation. Only a certain amount of fat qualifies to be re-injected into your buttocks. In most cases, not more than 25% of fat cells are qualified to be re-injected. Only the best donor fat cells are re-injected back.
• The fat is transferred into special cannulas. To make the patient achieve the highest permanent absorption rate, these small amounts of purified fat cells are re-injected using cannulas at various depths. The fat cells are usually injected into the subcutaneous regions, avoiding the deep muscular regions. The subcutaneous region is the area above the major blood vessels and helps to avoid the risk of fat embolism. Usually about 580cc of fat is injected into each buttock, but if patients have a healthy distribution or more amount of fat, about 1000cc of fat can be injected into each cheek.
