Recently there has been a dramatic increase in the number of patients seeking buttocks enhancement and in the degree of augmentation requested. To fulfill these requests,aesthetic plastic surgeons must understand the patient's personal requests and ethnic identity, as well as any universal ideal of proportions and contours that create the impression of beautiful buttocks. "Universally" perceived ideal buttocks are 1.4 times the circumference of the waist, which is consistent cross-culturally and throughout history. Beyond this are important ethnic differences in the image of perfect buttocks shape. The combination of autologous micro fat grafting and liposuction is the best and possibly only way to obtain various ideal shapes, and offers a lower incidence of complications compared with buttock implants.
