Achieving a more defined buttocks is a common goal, especially after weight loss, which can leave excess, sagging skin and a lack of contour. Below, our Atlanta plastic surgeon, Dr. Tom Lintner, discusses options that can help you achieve the firmer, more defined buttocks you desire.
First and foremost, exercise is key to naturally toning the buttocks. Moves like squats, lunges, and glute bridges help strengthen the gluteal muscles, improving definition over time. Consistency in strength training, paired with a healthy diet, can lead to noticeable improvements in the shape of the lower body.
For those seeking additional enhancement, body contouring with the Exilis laser is a non-invasive treatment option. Using radiofrequency technology, Exilis helps tighten mildly sagging or dimpled skin and reduce targeted pockets of fat, creating a smoother, more lifted appearance in the buttocks and thighs. It can be an excellent option for individuals looking to complement their fitness routine with a treatment that requires no downtime.
For those with significant skin laxity after weight loss, a lower body lift might be necessary in order to reduce redundant tissues and reveal your slimmer, more toned physique. This surgical procedure removes excess skin and tightens the underlying tissues, resulting in a more contoured and toned lower body.
