What Is Gluteal Enhancement?
For male patients looking to enlarge or re-shape their buttocks, gluteal enhancement augmentation for men in NYC may be the right procedure for them. A buttocks implant allows for fuller glutes; offering a more balanced profile by making up for a deficit of fat deposit. Gluteal augmentation can be achieved with injections of the patient’s body fat or with silicone implants.
Commonly, body-builders seek gluteal augmentation when they are unable to naturally develop gluteal muscles that balance with the proportions of the rest of their body. However, many men in NYC of all shapes and sizes seek gluteal implants for a boost in self-confidence and/or more youthful-looking glutes.
Male Gluteal Augmentation with Fat Transfer
Fuller glutes don’t have to mean using silicone implants to give you a natural effect. Body Banking, one of Dr. Steinbrech’s unique cosmetic surgery techniques, allows you to transfer body fat from one area of your body to another with minimal healing time and minimal risk of rejection. The overall effect will give most patients a more proportional and defined body, with volume in all the right places.
The most common method of buttock augmentation is fat transfer. Fat injection or fat grafting has grown rapidly in popularity as a safe and effective filler offering natural results.
Fat transfers require needle injections into the area requiring a volume enhancement. This procedure is a two-part process; first requiring the liposuction of one area to collect the fat that is secondly transferred as an injection to the desired region. Fat transfer involves harvesting the fat from one area of the body to be washed and purified before being injected into the desired area.
The procedure is safe, long-lasting, and offers natural-looking results.
Gluteal Enhancement with Implants
Buttock implants are unique in size and shape to be custom chosen by Dr. Steinbrech in his NYC office to best achieve your desired result. Silicone implants provide the right natural result and feel. The silicone implant is placed in the ideal position for comfort and aesthetic outcome, providing a fuller gluteal region that is permanent unless removed.
The surgical gluteal implant procedure in NYC requires general anesthesia and the time in surgery is two hours. Experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Steinbrech, places the incisions in the best possible areas of the buttocks for virtually invisible marks.

The Recovery Process for Gluteal Augmentation
After gluteal augmentation or butt implants, you can expect to avoid sitting down or lying on your back for up to three weeks post-procedure. Special compression garments are given to reduce swelling. Swelling during post-procedure is normal as is some bruising or discomfort. However, male patients in NYC typically return to work two to three weeks after buttock implants and gluteal augmentation when swelling will cease completely after six weeks.
