Just like in our faces, we start to lose collagen and volume in our buttocks as we age. And sometimes, you might just desire more volume than you currently have, more roundness or projection, or improvement in hip dips. Sculptra and Emsculpt are two treatment modalities that, when used alone or in combination, can help you add more volume to your buttocks. When it comes to enhancing our derrières, most people have heard of the surgical Brazilian Butt Lifts. However, did you know that there are now relatively easy and effective ways to enhance your buttocks without undergoing surgery? A combination of Sculptra ® , Dilute Radiesse , and/or EmSculpt ® can help you achieve your booty goals with minimal to no downtime.

DILUTE RADIESSE

EMSCULPT

Sculptra, or poly-L-lactic acid, is an injectable product that stimulates collagen production to enhance volume where placed. Sculptra for the buttocks is typically done in a series of one to three treatments, depending on the amount of build the patient desires. It typically only takes around 30 minutes for the procedure, after numbing. Downtime typically is 1-2 weeks and consists of swelling, redness, and/or bruising at the injection site. You can expect to see the results of Sculptra for approximately 2 years plus, depending on the amount injected, lifestyle, and maintenance procedures. With Sculptra, an expert injector can customize the results by placing the product in certain areas to give the results the patient is after.

Dilute Radiesse injections can tighten saggy, crepey skin in areas where exercise and other treatments are unable to correct such as the neck, décolletage, buttocks, thighs, arms, abdomen, knees and elbows. By stimulating the body’s own collagen response, patients notice long-term improvement in skin texture, firmness, and laxity.

EmSculpt is a completely noninvasive way to increase muscle by 25% in your buttocks. This device uses a combination of HIFEM and radiofrequency energies to cause supramaximal muscle contractions, in addition to skin tightening and collagen stimulation. With EmSculpt, a series of four treatments is typically performed five to ten days apart. Each 30-minute session is equivalent to doing 20,000 squats! There is no downtime with EmSculpt, and you can resume any activities immediately after.

While Sculptra and Dilute Radiesse have a little more downtime than EmSculpt, both are relatively easy and effective ways to build the booty. Depending on your goals, you may be a better candidate for one of these treatments or a combination of both. For the best build, doing both in combination will yield the best results because you can focus on collagen and muscle. The best way to determine the ideal treatment plan for you is to set up a consult with one of our providers so we can customize a plan that will help you grow that booty and rock it with confidence!
