Butt augmentation without surgery

Sculptra^®, butt lift without surgery

The "Kardashian butt lift" – enlarging the buttocks by injections with Sculptra^®, completely without surgery.

Having a beautiful, full and round bottom is the dream of many women – Kim Kardashian lives it. The method of choice is buttock augmentation with autologous fat, but there are many slim women for whom autologous fat removal is not possible. Until now, there was no other way of enlarging the buttocks of such patients apart from implants.

Now, injections with poly-L-lactic acid stimulate the connective tissue to build up the body's own tissue. Dr. Simon Ourion made this method known worldwide under the name "buttock augmentation without surgery". The substance used is called Sculptra^® – a product that has been firmly established in aesthetic medicine for many years and has undergone extensive scientific research. Sculptra has been used for over 20 years to build up volume in the face. Unlike a filler, Sculptra^® stimulates the production of the body's own collagen and leads to natural, long-term tissue build-up. The result is therefore always completely natural and there are no surgical scars.

The buttock lift without surgery takes 30 minutes and the injections of Sculptra^® on the buttocks are virtually painless. As a rule, 3-4 treatments at four weekly intervals are necessary to achieve a beautiful result. Approximately 4-8 ampoules are usually injected per session. It should be noted that it takes 6-8 weeks to achieve the final result, as the body's own processes need time to build up the desired tissue. However, once the result has been achieved, it lasts for many months to years.

Treatment with Sculptra^® has the advantage that no "downtime" is required: You can return to work, exercise or even go outside in the sun immediately after treatment. There are no side effects as with implants (only with general anesthesia), and liposuction is also not necessary.

Lanluma X

Polylactate (PLA), also known as polylactic acid, has been used for many years in many medical products such as thread lifts, implants for bones or skin threads for operations. As a result, the effect of PLA in the human body has been very well studied. In aesthetics, polylactate is used in the biomodulator Sculptra, for example, and the company Sinclair has also recently launched the product Lanluma.

While Sculptra^® is primarily known for its use in the face, Lanluma X was developed exclusively for modeling the buttocks. Dr. Linde was involved in the development and market launch of Lanluma as a member of Sinclair 's Advisory Board.

Based on initial experience, Lanluma is expected to show its effect more quickly than Sculptra and also achieve more volume. However, precise studies on this are still pending.

Lanluma X is a natural collagen activator, a substance that has been used in surgery for decades. Lanluma X is not a "filler" that breaks down again, but stimulates the body to build up its own new tissue – i.e. the body's own volume. The result of the treatment is therefore always completely natural, the skin becomes firm and full.

The advantage of Lanluma X is that the substance consists of specially fine particles dissolved in water, which are injected into the subcutaneous fatty tissue. This means that they remain exactly where they have been injected and only work there, without migrating through the tissue. This is precisely why treatment with Lanluma X is so safe: The tissue always feels completely natural without "lumps" or hardening. There are no side effects apart from possible bruising from the injection, which disappears on its own after a few days.

The treatment takes about half an hour and is painless thanks to the use of local anesthesia and ultrashort sleep. Immediately afterwards, patients sometimes feel a slight burning sensation, but nothing else. After just 2 days, you can return to sports or sunbathing.

Normally 600-1200mg Lanluma X is injected per treatment. We recommend 600mg of substance on both sides as an initial treatment, corresponding to a volume of almost 100ml. In most cases, 2-4 treatments at intervals of 4 weeks are necessary to achieve the desired result. The body needs around 4-8 weeks after each treatment to build up its own volume. Once the result has been achieved, it lasts for 2-4 years (or even longer) and usually only requires a small amount of top-up treatment.
