Abstract:
Gluteal augmentation is rapidly gaining in popularity and this is driving aesthetic surgeons to gain experience and develop techniques to meet patient expectations. Currently, the 2 main techniques - gluteal fat grafting and gluteal implant for augmentation have significant limitations. Autologous fat grafting seems to have a mortality rate significantly higher than other aesthetic procedures. Implant based gluteal augmentation is equally difficult. This is a broad review of all the complications associated with both types and autologous gluteal augmentation. Society and individual surgeons are developing guidelines for the procedure based on theoretic etiologies. Gluteal implant augmentation is also fraught with problems.
