Buttocks (backside)
Large backside as painted in Rubens’ paintings is not celebrated as much in modern times as it once was. According to recent criteria, the accumulation of fat around the buttocks and their unwanted enlargement, even in textbooks, is considered to be an abnormality of a beautiful figure. Even the person who is slim can have voluminous buttocks. This can be caused by unsuitable diet, wrong lifestyle, but also geneticly.
To change the shape of the buttocks is not easy but it is possible. The first step is to exercise and change the way of living, which should be tried even before seeking professional medical advice. On the other hand in Asklepion we can help the client to design the individual programmes and to maximise the pathway to this change.
The shape and smooth skin of buttocks can be improved with body programmes and cosmetics. Individual therapy and certain products, in our clinic Orlane and Decleor, can help the results. Frequently sought procedures are wraps, massages and peelings.
The excellent results in shaping and toning these problematic places are achieved by body machines such as Dermosonic or Aerosonic. With the combination of ultrasound and the vacuum massage the body improves the circulation and shape as well. We recommend programmes of minimum six sessions.
If the client does not have a general overweight problem and the slimming would not therefore be successful, it is indicated to consider removing the excessive fat by liposuction. The method used in Asklepion is the vibration technique when a machine hammers out the excessive fat cells. It is performed under sedation, with the patient being asleep. The liposuction cannula is introduced by the surgeon into the buttocks through small, about one centimetre long incisions into the skin. The areas purposefully chosen are later hidden under the underwear or swimwear. The scars heal well and the overall skin is not badly affected. For a successful outcome, the post operative phase and patient’s care of the treated areas are very important. It is necessary to wear special compressive underwear for about 4–6 weeks, which further models new shapes of buttocks where fatty tissue was removed.
The buttocks are the typical place for cellulite signs. With treatment of this condition we have excellent results with body machines, in addition there are special cosmetics and body cosmetic procedures, specifically Orlane and Decleor and also specific food supplements, e.g. Imedeen and Cellasene.
