Buttock Lift

Advanced Gluteal Lifting Techniques with Dr. Puyana

Buttock Lift Designed to Restore Position, Tightness, and Youthful Contour

Over time, changes in weight, aging, pregnancy, and gravity can lead to buttock ptosis – the downward descent and loss of firmness of the buttock tissues. Even patients who maintain a healthy weight and active lifestyle may notice sagging or flattening that cannot be corrected with exercise alone.

A buttock lift is designed to restore the youthful position, tightness, and shape of the buttocks, improving overall body balance and lower-body proportions.

At Puyana 

Plastic Surgery

 Dr. Salomon Puyana approaches buttock lift surgery as a highly customized procedure. The technique selected depends on the type, location, and severity of buttock ptosis, allowing for refined lifting while keeping incisions as discreet as possible.

What Is a Buttock Lift?

A buttock lift is a surgical procedure that:

  • Lifts sagging buttock tissue
  • Removes excess skin
  • Improves buttock position and firmness
  • Restores a smoother, more youthful contour


Unlike fat grafting or implants, a buttock lift focuses on elevating and tightening existing tissue, making it ideal for patients whose primary concern is sagging rather than lack of volume.

Dr. Salomon Puyana carefully evaluates buttock anatomy, skin quality, and ptosis pattern to determine the most effective lifting approach.

Why Choose a Buttock Lift?

Patients choose buttock lift surgery to:

  • Correct buttock sagging (ptosis)
  • Restore youthful buttock position
  • Improve lower-body proportions
  • Enhance tightness and definition
  • Achieve a smoother transition between the lower back, hips, and buttocks

When performed with the correct technique, a buttock lift can significantly improve contour while maintaining a natural, balanced appearance.

Buttock Lift Techniques

  • Bikini Incision Buttock Lift

    This technique places the incision along the upper buttock or lower back line, similar to the “gaviota wing” shape.

    • Best suited for upper buttock ptosis
    • Allows significant lifting and tightening
    • Incision can be concealed by bikini bottoms

  • Miami Thong Lift

    The Miami thong lift uses a hidden incision placed at the top of the buttock crease, near the natural separation line between the buttocks.

    • Ideal for central or lower buttock ptosis
    • Incision is concealed in the thong/buttock crease area
    • Provides discreet lifting with minimal visible scarring
