Surgery
Under general anesthesia, the necessary procedures are performed to obtain a natural appearance with an incision to be made between the two glutes in 1-2 hours. implants are placed in the pocket to be opened in the lower layer of the gluteus maximus muscle, the largest muscle in the buttocks. It is just like breast augmentation surgery. However, the implants used here are denser. Since they are also placed under the muscle and have a thick layer of fat on them, they cannot be felt by hand.
