Having a full, round buttocks is considered highly attractive, but not everyone is naturally blessed with a voluminous backside. Patients who wish to augment their buttocks can choose to undergo a gluteal implant procedure to improve the size and shape of their derriere.
Dr. Ravinder Jarial is a board-certified plastic surgeon in West Palm Beach & Fort Lauderdale, Florida who has helped many patients to achieve their dream proportions with the help of these implants.

Benefits of Gluteal Implants
Patients choose buttock implants for a variety of reasons, which include:
- Improving the way the buttocks looks in pants or a bathing suit
- Changing the appearance of butt cheeks that seem too flat or square
- Augmenting the butt after weight loss has changed its size
- Boosting self-confidence and social opportunities
What to Expect During Gluteal Implant Surgery
To begin, Dr. Jarial uses general anesthesia to keep the patient comfortable throughout the surgery. Next, he makes two small incisions on each butt cheek close to the midline (often referred to as the crack) where scarring is easily concealed. Through these incisions, Dr. Jarial inserts the butt implants, positioning each one within the butt muscles. This intramuscular placement requires advanced technique and precision on Dr. Jarial’s part, but it is the optimal way to avoid some of the problems that arise when doctors place implants above or beneath the muscles. Typically, the entire surgery is completed within 90 minutes.
Gluteal Implant Recovery
Rest and relaxation are key when recovering from this procedure. Unfortunately, the location of the implants can make it trickier to do this – it is critical to avoid sitting or sleeping on the back to avoid putting pressure on the implant which can cause it to shift out of place or change shape. By sitting on a special butt augmentation pillow (which puts the pressure on the thighs) and sleeping on the stomach, the patient can help the buttocks to heal more successfully. Most patients take two weeks off from work to allow time for the bruising and swelling to subside. Pain medication may be taken to help alleviate lingering discomfort.

Gluteal Implants vs. Brazilian Butt Lift
In more recent years, Brazilian butt lift (BBL) has overtaken gluteal implants as the more popular butt augmentation procedure. Not all patients prefer or are candidates for BBL, however. BBL requires fat to be harvested from one area of the patient’s body and then transferred to the buttocks. If the patient does not have excess body fat, implants may be the better choice. Implants come in a variety of sizes (usually from 100cc to 800cc,) which gives patients more predictability in the size of their buttocks after the surgery.

FAQs
You may be a good candidate for buttock implants if you’re in overall good health, maintain a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about your results. This procedure is particularly beneficial if you desire a more contoured or voluminous backside but do not have enough excess fat to qualify for fat transfer procedures like the Brazilian Butt Lift. If you’ve always had a flatter buttock area or have experienced volume loss due to aging or weight fluctuations, implants may provide the lasting enhancement you’re looking for. During your consultation, Dr. Jarial will assess your goals and physical anatomy to determine whether implants are the most suitable option for your body type and desired outcome.
You may not be a suitable candidate if you have certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes, autoimmune disorders, or a history of poor wound healing. Additionally, if you are currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning significant weight changes, it’s best to postpone the procedure. Smokers and individuals with unrealistic expectations about surgical outcomes should also reconsider or consult closely before moving forward. Ensuring that your skin has sufficient elasticity and your gluteal muscles are structurally healthy is also essential for a successful implant placement. An in-depth evaluation with Dr. Jarial will help determine whether this procedure is safe and beneficial for you.
Buttock implants are designed to enhance volume and improve the shape of your glutes. If you feel your buttocks appear flat, uneven, or lack definition, implants can create a rounder, fuller, and more lifted look. Common concerns like hip dips, asymmetry, and overall lack of projection can be corrected through implant surgery. You may also benefit if previous procedures like fat transfer didn’t provide your desired result. Implants offer consistent volume and are especially effective for individuals seeking a dramatic or well-defined contour that fat transfer alone may not achieve.
Buttock implants are available in a range of sizes, volumes, and shapes—typically round or oval (anatomical). The choice between these depends on the look you’re trying to achieve. Round implants provide a more prominent lift and projection, while oval implants create a more natural slope and fuller lower buttock area. Sizes can vary significantly, and your choice will be guided by your personal goals, gluteal anatomy, and overall body proportions.
Dr. Jarial will work with you to evaluate your gluteal shape, skin elasticity, and overall frame. Your implant size is not just about adding volume—it’s about harmonizing with your natural proportions. Choosing the right size involves a balance between your desired enhancement and what your body can safely support. You’ll discuss different implant options using models or digital simulations, and together, you’ll arrive at a size that enhances your body’s contours without appearing overdone.
Your incisions are typically placed within the gluteal crease, which naturally hides scars in the fold where the buttocks meet the upper thigh. This strategic placement makes scars easier to conceal, even in swimsuits or underwear. Over time, with proper healing and aftercare, these scars tend to fade significantly. Dr. Jarial uses precise surgical techniques to minimize trauma and promote smooth healing, and you’ll receive personalized instructions to support your recovery and scar care after the procedure.
