How a buttock lift works

Four stages — from the initial assessment to the follow-up check. You’ll know in advance how the preparation, surgery, and recovery unfold.

  1. 1

    Preliminary assessment by the doctor

    Send photos and describe the changes you’d like. The doctor will assess your anatomy and the possible scope of correction. An online consultation with the doctor is also available.

  2. 2

    Consultation and preparation in Istanbul

    Before surgery, you’ll have an in-person consultation with the doctor and the necessary preoperative workup — its scope depends on the type of surgery and anesthesia.

    Preparation and tests

    Before your trip, the coordinator will send a short list: which medications to stop in advance, what to bring, and how to prepare for the flight.

    In Istanbul, before surgery, you’ll have blood tests, an ECG, and a consultation with the anesthesiologist. The doctor examines the buttock area, and together you agree on the surgical plan. If the test results suggest it’s better to postpone surgery, you’ll know in advance.

  3. 3

    Surgery

    The length of surgery and the type of anesthesia depend on the extent of the correction — the doctor will specify them after the examination. After surgery, you stay one night at the clinic under medical supervision.

    During the surgery

    The doctor removes and tightens excess skin and tissue, improving the contour and position of the buttocks. The placement of incisions and the extent of correction are planned individually.

    Whether a lift is right for you, whether it should be combined with other procedures, and where the scars will run — the doctor will tell you from your photos and confirm at the examination.

  4. 4

    Recovery

    After discharge, recovery continues at your hotel, and the assistants stay in touch with you. On day 7, the doctor performs a follow-up check.

    After surgery — one night at the clinic under medical supervision.

    1

    An examination before discharge and transfer to the hotel. Swelling, bruising, and a feeling of tightness can be a normal part of recovery after surgery.

    2–6

    Recovery at the hotel and following the doctor’s instructions: the doctor will explain your routine and how to position yourself when sleeping and sitting before you’re discharged.

    7

    The final check before you leave. By this point any drains that were placed have already been removed, dressings have been changed and stitches taken out. The doctor makes sure that healing is going normally and there are no signs of complications.

Risks and contraindicationsPatient safety is the priority at every stage. Before the procedure, the doctor assesses the patient’s health.

Risks

As with any surgical procedure, a buttock lift carries possible risks, including bleeding, infection, swelling, temporary changes in sensation, asymmetry, and variations in scar formation. In some cases, an additional correction may be needed. The possible risks are discussed with the patient before surgery.

Contraindications

Acute illnesses and inflammatory conditions, blood-clotting disorders, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and certain chronic conditions may be grounds for postponing surgery or for further evaluation. The decision on whether surgery can proceed is made by the doctors after assessing the patient’s health.

Questions and answers

Ask a question →
How much does the surgery cost?

The cost is calculated individually. The doctor provides it after reviewing your photos. Send them on WhatsApp — you’ll receive a plan and the full price.

Will the scars be visible?

Any lift leaves a scar. The doctor plans the incisions where they are least visible and shows you in advance exactly where yours will be.

When can I return to work and sports?

Timing is individual and depends on how your recovery goes. The doctor will give you personal recommendations at the follow-up check and will stay in touch with you after you return home.

How does a lift differ from buttock fat grafting?

A lift removes excess skin and tissue and improves the position of the buttocks. Fat grafting adds volume and reshapes them using your own fat. The doctor will tell you which is right for you after an examination.

How many days do I need to be in Istanbul?

For surgeries under general anesthesia we recommend 7–8 days in Istanbul — from arrival to the follow-up check; under local anesthesia, 2–3 days. The coordinator will agree exact dates with you after the doctor’s preliminary assessment.

When can I fly home?

After the follow-up check on day 7. The doctor clears you to go home once he’s confident your recovery is on track.
