best procedure for wrinkled bum
.Wud I be better with a butt lift- but thought this was what a LBL did- or because so mch skin do I need a butt augmentation? If any of you identify with my butt description and have had work done I wud love to see before and after and what procedure you had done. I don't care about no bum but hate all the wrinkles so if an augmentation fixes it I wud do it. Also- I have heard of fat injections as the augmentation- does this last? How far out are you?

This describes what I had done:
Lower Body Lift (with Buttock Autoaugmentation)
A body lift is a combined procedure that addresses the contour of abdomen, the lateral thighs and the buttocks. It is essentially an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), a lateral thigh lift and a buttock lift. It leaves a lengthy scar that goes completely around the waistline; however, we design the incision to be hidden beneath underwear or a bathing suit. This procedure is also commonly referred to as a lower body lift, a circumferential body lift or a belt lipectomy.
It is important to realize that all plastic surgeons do not perform this procedure in the same fashion. A circumferential excision can sometimes result in the loss of buttock projection and the appearance of a “flattened" buttock if all of this tissue is discarded. To preserve this desired buttock contour, we use the existing excess tissue that is normally discarded and shape it into a tissue flap that is rotated inferior in a way that will preserve projection or add volume to enhance your buttock contour. This is called buttock or gluteal autoaugmentation. At the time of your consultation, your surgeon will discuss whether your anatomy and goals are appropriate for this procedure.
I don't have any before pics. Once my ps takes the final pics in November, he'll give me both the before and after pics.
