Buttock augmentation helps those who wish to enhance the appearance, size and definition of muscles in the buttock area. Buttock implants are stronger than breast implants and are made of an elastomer that cannot leak. Doctors place implants in the area using a small incision atop the muscles above the sitting area and below the surrounding fascia to secure them. The incision scar will normally heal and it is barely visible after approximately one year after surgery. In some countries, doctors use acrylic beads of glass for buttock augmentation. A surgeon injects the beads in the same way as doctors obtain fat through liposuction.
