What Is a Non-Surgical Butt Lift?
A non-surgical butt lift is designed to enhance the shape and volume of the buttocks by using injectable filler to stimulate the growth of collagen in the treatment area. This minimally invasive technique provides a low-risk alternative without downtime, compared to a butt lift with implants or butt augmentation using fat transfer, such as Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery. Our team at Richmond Aesthetic Surgery offers the non-surgical butt lift treatment using Sculptra, an injectable poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator, that works from within to add fullness and curvier contours to the buttocks.
Am I a Candidate for a Sculptra Butt Lift?
A Sculptra butt lift is ideal for patients who are in good health and interested in a natural-looking, gradual enhancement to their buttocks. You may be a good candidate if you are looking for:
- A subtle butt lift and fuller gluteal area
- Restored volume lost from weight loss, aging, or pregnancy
- Non-surgical treatment with no downtime
- Smoother skin affected by cellulite
Other candidates may be those who don’t have enough fat to harvest with liposuction for a surgical BBL. The result of a Sculptra butt lift is not immediate or permanent, so it is important that candidates understand realistic goals of this safer, non-invasive butt enhancement procedure.
What Does the Sculptra Butt Lift Procedure Involve?
A non-surgical Sculptra butt lift has the benefits of a fuller buttocks without the need for downtime and months of restricted seating that can accompany a BBL surgery. To begin treatment, you’ll lay on your stomach and a topical numbing agent, such as lidocaine, may be applied to the injection sites to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. When the treatment site is ready, Sculptra injections are placed strategically around the buttocks for optimum development of volume. The entire process, including numbing, takes about 30 to 60 minutes, after which patients can drive themselves home and resume their daily activities. For the best results, it is usually recommended for patients to complete a series of two to three Sculptra injection treatments.
How Long Does a Sculptra Butt Lift Last?
Results from a Sculptra butt lift typically last for two years, although some patients have reported improved results for up to five years. As with all injectable treatments, the formula will dissolve and naturally absorb into the body, causing the effects of Sculptra to fade over time. For those wanting to prolong their results, follow-up treatments can be scheduled for a longer-lasting enhancement.
How Much Does a Sculptra Butt Lift Cost?
The cost of a non-surgical butt lift with Sculptra injections can range from $4,000 to $7,000. Each patient’s cosmetic goals and physique are unique, so the cost of treatment can vary based on their specific needs and goals. The more volume the patient desires, the more Sculptra formula is needed, which is calculated per vial. Our team will provide a cost estimate based on your specific information and can discuss payment and financing options available at our practice.
