Sagging Buttock Correction in Seoul | Gangnam CDU Plastic Surgery Clinic & Cost

What is Sagging Buttock Correction?

Sagging buttock correction, also known as a butt lift or gluteal lift, is a cosmetic procedure that lifts and reshapes the buttocks to restore a firmer, more youthful contour. Buttock sagging can result from aging, weight loss, or decreased skin elasticity, leading to a flattened or drooping appearance. The procedure involves removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues, and may be combined with fat grafting (Brazilian Butt Lift) or implants for added volume.

At CDU Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, our board-certified surgeons specialize in personalized buttock lift procedures that enhance body proportions and restore firmness. Using advanced techniques, we minimize scarring while achieving smooth, natural-looking results that match your body shape and aesthetic goals.

Who is a Good Candidate for Sagging Buttock Correction?

You may be a good candidate for buttock lift surgery if you:

✔ Have loose, sagging skin or a flat appearance in the buttock area
✔ Experienced significant weight loss leading to skin laxity
✔ Desire a firmer, lifted, and more sculpted lower body contour
✔ Are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight
✔ Have realistic expectations and prefer a long-lasting solution

At CDU Plastic Surgery Clinic, we perform a full lower body assessment to create a customized treatment plan. Whether performed alone or with fat transfer for volume enhancement, our goal is to restore youthful curves, improve skin tone, and create a balanced, confident silhouette.

How is Sagging Buttocks Correction Performed?

1. Consultation & Evaluation

• Physical examination and 3D body scan to assess the degree of sagging, skin laxity, and fat or muscle volume
• Identification of causes—aging, significant weight loss, poor muscle tone, or genetics
• Discussion of desired outcome: firmer projection, lifted contour, or enhanced volume
• Evaluation for surgical or non-surgical methods based on skin quality and lifestyle

2. Treatment Approach

• Depending on severity and goals, one or more of the following techniques may be used:

– Surgical Butt Lift (Gluteal Lift): Excess skin and tissue are removed, and the buttocks are lifted and reshaped for a firmer, more youthful contour
– Fat Grafting (Brazilian Butt Lift - BBL): Fat is harvested via liposuction, purified, and injected into the buttocks to restore volume and lift naturally
– Thread Lifting: Special lifting threads are placed under the skin to elevate mild to moderate sagging with minimal downtime
– Energy-Based Skin Tightening (e.g., RF or Ultrasound): Non-invasive treatments help tighten skin and stimulate collagen for subtle lifting over time
• Procedures may be performed under local or general anesthesia depending on the method

3. Recovery & Aftercare

• Surgical procedures involve moderate swelling, soreness, and limited sitting or lying on the buttocks for 1–2 weeks
• Compression garments must be worn for 2–4 weeks to reduce swelling and support healing
• For fat grafting, only light pressure on the buttocks is allowed during early recovery to preserve fat survival
• Non-surgical methods require minimal downtime with only mild soreness
• Regular follow-ups monitor healing progress, contour symmetry, and scar fading

Recovery & Aftercare

Recovery Timeline:

• Surgical Lift/BBL: Swelling and tightness last 2–3 weeks; avoid sitting directly on buttocks for 10–14 days
• Thread Lift: Mild soreness for 2–5 days; return to normal activity within a week
• Non-Surgical Methods: No downtime; mild redness or tightness may occur
• Final Results: Become visible within 1–3 months depending on procedure type

Following aftercare guidelines—especially movement restrictions, posture, and skin hydration—is key for optimal shape retention and natural healing.
