Buttock augmentation by injection is an aesthetic procedure designed to increase the volume and improve the shape of the buttocks without the need for cosmetic surgery. This technique uses injectable products to sculpt and shape the buttocks. The results are natural and harmonious.
Contrairement à la chirurgie, cette méthode ne nécessite pas de temps de récupération, est moins risquée et le traitement peut être personnalisé.
Buttock augmentation by injection is an increasingly popular technique in aesthetic medicine because it can achieve curves more voluptuous without use the surgery. Injectable products such as Sculptra and Hyacorp, Hyaluronic acid specially designed for the body, are used to improve the volume and shape of the buttocks in a natural and sustainable way.
These injections transform the silhouette: depending on the patient’s wishes, the results can be subtle or more pronounced.
Non-surgical buttock augmentation is a safe and effective method.
Having perky buttocks has become very trendy in recent years, to the point that some magazines have run headlines such as “buttocks, the new face” or “get the buttocks of Kim Kardashian or Jennifer Lopez.”
Flat buttocks are due to several factors.
There is an ideal buttock shape.
The ideal buttock is firm, round, and attractively contoured.
From the back, the ideal buttock has an outward convex curve.
In profile, there is a noticeable curve between the buttock and the lower back, with most volume concentrated in the upper third of the buttock.
In women, there are four buttock shapes :
Men tend to have flatter, square-shaped buttocks. The volume is located in the upper half, and some men have a dip on the outer side of the buttock, which gives a muscular appearance.
Buttock augmentation by injection is an increasingly popular technique to quickly achieve fuller, more sculpted buttocks without surgery. This procedure involves injecting hyaluronic acid (Hyacorp) or Sculptra into the buttocks to improve their shape and volume.
The injecting physician must be an expert with thorough knowledge of injection techniques and anatomy to avoid potential complications such as infections and surface irregularities.
The shape and projection of the buttocks play a crucial role in the beauty of the silhouette.
These characteristics depend on the size of the gluteus maximus muscle and the curve of the lumbar region, often referred to as the “small of the back.”
According to beauty standards, the buttocks should be full and rounded, and the waist narrow and well defined.
Flat buttocks can cause psychological distress, affect self-esteem, and become a real source of insecurity.
Skin laxity and poor skin quality in the buttock area may be associated with lack of volume and worsen the patient’s perception.
The desire to enhance the buttocks may be motivated by personal aesthetic goals, fashion trends or fitness icons.
Any adult patient is eligible for treatment, unless there are contraindications to injections or unrealistic expectations.
An initial consultation with the patient is essential. This consultation allows to :
A 15-day reflection period (between the initial consultation and the injection) is a legal medical requirement.
The steps are as follows:
Hyacorp injections are the treatment of choice for those seeking significant volume enhancement of the buttocks. This hyaluronic acid, designed specifically for the body, is highly volumizing. Compared to implants, it offers the advantage of being placed throughout the entire buttock area (implants are limited to the upper two-thirds), allowing for sculpting of the outer convexity — an effect that implants cannot achieve.
The injection is performed in-office under local anaesthesia.
Depending on the patient’s anatomy and buttock shape, Doctor Romano will propose the most harmonious and suitable filling plan.
A cannula is used to treat the area safely and evenly. The session lasts about one hour.
Normal activities can be resumed immediately after the injection.
The cost is significant due to the amount of product required : twenty to thirty syringes may be used.
Hyacorp is a resorbable product, so the result is not permanent.
Maintenance sessions are needed : every eighteen months, two-thirds of the initial amount must be reinjected.
Sculptra injections are very popular in the USA and Brazil, where the Sculptra butt lift is a common procedure. This product stimulates collagen production, which improves skin quality and enhances the shape of the buttocks.
This technique offers several advantages over Hyacorp injections :
The downside is the moderate volume that can be achieved.
Hyaluronic acid injections and buttock implants are two different methods for increasing buttock volume.
Injections are a non-surgical solution, less invasive and without downtime. Results are natural, can be adjusted over time with additional sessions, and are fully personalized — allowing any desired shape or volume.
Injections need to be repeated, as the result is not permanent.
Buttock implants are a surgical procedure, with major complications including infection and implant displacement.
Recovery time is longer, and general anaesthesia is required.
Results are permanent, and a greater volume is achieved in a single session.
However, the procedure is not fully customizable since the shape depends on the form of the implant.
Injections and lipofilling are two different techniques for increasing buttock volume.
Lipofilling, or autologous fat grafting, involves harvesting fat from another part of the patient's body and injecting it into the buttocks.
This method has the disadvantages of cosmetic surgery : general anaesthesia, risk of infection, and a recovery period.
Results are not immediate — patients must wait for post-operative swelling to subside.
Many patients complain about the durability (which is not permanent) and surface irregularities due to uneven fat resorption.
In contrast, injections involve using a product to increase volume. Results are immediate but temporary, requiring maintenance every 12 to 18 months. There is no recovery period, and daily activities can be resumed immediately.
Yes, it is possible to enhance the buttocks without surgery through injections of Sculptra or Hyacorp.
These non-surgical methods are ideal for those who want to improve the shape and volume of their buttocks without undergoing surgery.
Sculptra injections stimulate collagen production for progressive and long-lasting results, while Hyacorp injections (a hyaluronic acid designed for the body) offer immediate but shorter-lasting results.
These procedures allow treatment to be tailored to the patient’s preferences. Results are natural and harmonious.
Buttock injections with Sculptra or Hyacorp produce visible, natural results.
Results are tailored to the patient’s wishes — the treatment is personalized.
The duration depends on the product used.
Sculptra injections offer progressive results that last up to two years.
Hyacorp injections give immediate but temporary results — about twelve months.
Longevity also depends on the patient’s lifestyle, metabolism and anatomy.
Maintenance sessions every eighteen months are recommended.
The cost of buttock augmentation by injection depends on the product used (Sculptra or Hyacorp) and the quantity required.

Reviews from patients who chose Sculptra or Hyacorp buttock injections are generally very positive.
Satisfaction is high due to the natural results, speed of the procedure and quick recovery.
Patients appreciate the visible improvement in volume and shape, and the balanced, harmonious look of the silhouette.
The absence of scars and low risk of complications are seen as key advantages.
The results of Sculptra injections can last up to two years, while Hyacorp injections generally last between six and twelve months.
Recovery is rapid, with minor side effects such as redness or swelling, which disappear within a few days. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the session.
Sculptra injections are not painful. For Hyacorp injections, a local anaesthetic is used to make the procedure more comfortable.
The two products can be combined, depending on the patient's specific needs and the doctor's assessment, to obtain optimum results. The period between injections is 2 months.
To increase your buttocks rapidly, combine targeted exercises such as squats, lunges and hip thrusts and opt for a protein-rich diet.
Hyacorp and Sculptra injections immediately enhance the buttocks.
No, the results are not definitive. The effects generally last between 12 and 18 months.
Yes, the alternatives are Sculptra injections, buttock implants and lipofilling (fat transfer).
Hyacorp is a hyaluronic acid and therefore biocompatible. Sculptra is made from poly-lactic acid, which has been used for many years in medicine.
Injection of these substances is safe if carried out by an experienced doctor.
It is generally recommended to avoid strenuous physical activity and sport for 48 hours after the injection.
Yes, it is possible to carry out several Hyacorp injection sessions in the buttocks to achieve the desired volume.
The results of a buttock augmentation with Hyacorp last for a year and a half. To maintain the result, the 60% of the product used for the first injection must be re-injected every 18 months.
Side effects are minor if the injection is carried out by an experienced doctor: redness, swelling, bruising and pain at the injection site.
