Redefine Your Profile With Butt Augmentation in San Francisco

For individuals who desire a more sculpted, curvier figure, butt augmentation in San Francisco offers a safe, effective way to enhance the shape, size, and projection of the buttocks. At The Maas Clinic™, we help patients achieve refined and balanced results through expert surgical planning, advanced techniques, and the highest standards of care.

What Is Butt Augmentation?

Butt augmentation is a cosmetic surgery that enhances the volume and contour of the buttocks using silicone implants or fat transfer techniques. The most common surgical approach involves placing biocompatible silicone implants within or beneath the gluteal muscle to improve fullness and shape. In some cases, the procedure may be combined with a butt lift to reposition and firm sagging tissues, especially after significant weight loss or aging-related volume loss.

Butt augmentation is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Incisions are placed strategically within the natural folds of the buttocks to minimize visible scarring. Once the implants are placed and positioned, the incisions are closed with sutures, and a compression garment is applied to support healing.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Buttock Lift?

Ideal candidates for a butt lift in San Francisco are healthy adults who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their buttocks due to volume loss, sagging skin, or asymmetry. Many patients seek this procedure after major weight loss, pregnancy, or aging has altered their body proportions. Non-smokers with good skin elasticity, realistic expectations, and a commitment to following post-operative care instructions tend to achieve the best outcomes. Individuals with poor skin tone or those with medical conditions that may impair healing should be evaluated carefully to determine their suitability for surgery.

Your Consultation

Your experience begins with a private consultation at The Maas Clinic™, where we take time to understand your goals, review your medical history, and assess your body contour. During this appointment, we will explain the differences between implants and fat transfer, discuss surgical techniques, and help you decide which approach aligns best with your anatomy and preferences. We will also review before-and-after images, talk through potential risks, and provide guidance on preparing for surgery and recovery. The consultation is a critical step in designing a personalized surgical plan that delivers beautiful, natural-looking results.

What to Expect During Your Butt Augmentation Procedure in San Francisco

On the day of your procedure, you will be placed under anesthesia and prepped for surgery. If you are receiving silicone implants, your surgeon will make an incision in the gluteal fold—an area where scars can be well concealed. The implants are then inserted into a pocket created within or beneath the gluteus maximus muscle. The goal is to achieve smooth contours and even, symmetrical volume that complements your natural body shape.

If a butt lift is included, excess skin is removed and tissues are tightened to elevate and firm the buttocks. Once the desired shape is achieved, sutures are placed, and a surgical garment is applied. The entire procedure typically lasts one to two hours, and most patients return home the same day with detailed aftercare instructions.

“Dr. Maas is the best! He understands that his patients want a natural appearance and want to look their best. He is mindful of the potential issues which are more medical, such as skin health. I am grateful to have found him. A big plus is Dr. Maas's wonderful staff. Thank you!”

What Is the Recovery Like?

After your butt augmentation or butt lift in San Francisco, you can expect mild to moderate discomfort, swelling, and bruising for several days to weeks. These side effects can be managed with oral medication and supportive garments.

Light walking is recommended within a few days to promote circulation, but all strenuous activity, heavy lifting, and exercise should be avoided for a month or more. Your surgeon will monitor your progress with follow-up appointments and provide guidance on when it's safe to resume regular activities.

It is crucial to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for at least two to three weeks to ensure proper healing and implant stability. Instead, patients are encouraged to lie on their stomachs or sides and use special cushions when seated.

Most patients see their final results within 8 to 12 weeks, with continued improvement in contour and scar fading over time.

How Much Does Butt Augmentation Cost?

The cost of butt augmentation in San Francisco varies depending on the technique used, the complexity of the procedure, anesthesia fees, and surgeon experience. On average, pricing may range from $8,000 to $15,000. During your consultation, we will provide a detailed quote that includes all associated costs, helping you make an informed decision.

Butt Augmentation FAQ

How long do butt implants last?

Buttock implants are designed to be long-lasting, often remaining in place for 10 years or more. However, they may eventually require replacement or revision due to aging, changes in tissue, or complications.

What is the difference between a butt augmentation and a Brazilian butt lift (BBL)?

A butt augmentation typically uses implants to enhance volume, while a BBL uses fat harvested from another area of the body via liposuction. BBL results depend on how much fat survives after transfer and may vary from person to person.

Can I combine a butt augmentation with other procedures?

Yes, butt augmentation is often combined with body contouring procedures like liposuction, tummy tuck, or thigh lift to improve overall proportions and results. These combinations can be discussed during your consultation.

Will there be visible scars after surgery?

The incisions for butt augmentation are placed in discreet locations, such as the natural crease of the buttocks. With proper care, most scars fade significantly over time and are easily hidden under clothing or swimwear.

Is it safe to sit after surgery?

Patients are generally advised to avoid sitting directly on their buttocks for at least 2–3 weeks after surgery. Special cushions and sitting techniques can help reduce pressure and protect your results during healing.

Are there risks or complications associated with butt implants?

As with any surgery, risks include infection, implant displacement, capsular contracture, and asymmetry. Choosing an experienced surgeon and following all post-operative instructions can significantly reduce these risks.
