What is a gluteal lift?
A gluteal lift, also called a lift gluteoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and firms the tissues to improve the shape, projection, and firmness of the glutes.
It is indicated for people who have sagging in this area due to weight loss, aging, or lack of natural tone.
Unlike a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) or implants, the lift focuses on firming rather than adding volume.
At COLSURGERIES, we perform this procedure with aesthetic, technical, and safety criteria, seeking a harmonious, long-lasting, and natural result.
How is it performed?
It is performed in an authorized operating room under general anesthesia and has an approximate duration of 2 to 3 hours. The procedure follows these three main phases:
Surgical evaluation and marking
The surgeon determines the excess skin and tissue to be removed, strategically marking the upper gluteal area or along the gluteal fold, depending on the case.
Resection and lifting
An incision is made to remove the excess skin and tighten the deep tissues, lifting the position of the glutes and improving their firmness and contour.
Suture and final shaping
The incisions are carefully closed, minimizing the visibility of scars. Compression garments are placed to promote tissue adherence.
At COLSURGERIES, we prioritize minimally invasive techniques and discreet scars, achieving harmonious results with total support at every stage.
Gluteal Lift – Recovery
Recovery from a gluteal lift is progressive. It is normal to have swelling, a sensation of tension, or mild discomfort during the first few days.
Most patients can resume light activities between 10 and 14 days, avoiding prolonged sitting positions or pressure on the area.
Physical exercise should be avoided for 6 weeks or until the surgeon authorizes it.
The results are noticeable from the first few weeks, but they are consolidated between weeks 8 and 12, when the tissues heal and adapt.
At COLSURGERIES, we provide in-person medical follow-up in Medellin and virtual assistance from your country, taking care of your recovery and well-being.
