Understanding Butt Lift Surgery

A butt lift, also known as gluteoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten the skin around the buttocks area. Plastic surgeons remove excess skin and reposition surrounding tissue to create a more pleasing and youthful body contour.

Procedure Overview

Dr. Taylor Theunissen specializes in personalized buttock enhancement procedures. The surgery involves making an incision along the lower back region, removing excessive skin, and contouring the buttocks to achieve a desired aesthetic result.

Ideal Candidates for Butt Lift

Candidates for a butt lift typically include:

  • Non-smokers in generally good health
  • Individuals with stable weight wanting lower body improvements
  • Patients with skin elasticity concerns after significant weight loss

Surgical Technique

During the buttock enhancement surgery, Dr. Theunissen will:

  • Make an incision along the lower back from hip to hip
  • Remove excessive skin and extra fat
  • Reposition surrounding tissue for improved contour
  • Administer antibiotics to reduce infection risk

Recovery Process

Buttock lift recovery is typically straightforward. Patients can expect:

  • Initial recovery period of 1-3 weeks
  • Gradual return to normal activities
  • Wearing supportive garments for several weeks
  • Full results visible around six months post-procedure

Important Considerations

The procedure may not be recommended for individuals with:

  • Chronic health conditions like heart disease or diabetes
  • Body mass index exceeding 30
  • Unstable weight or plans for significant future weight loss
  • Active smoking
  • Unstable mental health conditions

Cost and Consultation

The average cost for a butt lift ranges between $4,000 and $8,000. Factors influencing price include surgical complexity, surgeon's expertise, and geographical location.

After being diagnosed with breast cancer, I believed I was making empowered decisions about my reconstruction. The Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act (WHCRA) gives women the legal right to breast reconstruction following a mastectomy, and at the time, it felt like I had "options." But what I’ve come to realize is that these so-called options can be a carefully constructed illusion—one that some plastic surgeons use to prey on women when they are at their most vulnerable. I trusted Dr. Cusimano and Dr. Theunissen to help restore my body and my sense of self. I underwent a DIEP flap reconstruction, which failed. This led to an abscess in my left breast and significant damage to my abdomen that required hernia repair and reattachment of a damaged muscle. When the DIEP failed, I was recommended the latissimus dorsi flap, which has left me with chronic pain and permanent loss of range of motion. These surgeries have not improved my life—they’ve altered it in ways I never could have imagined. The physical and emotional cost has been enormous. What was offered to me as help and healing turned into years of additional suffering. I’m sharing my experience because I want other women to be fully informed. Just because something is legally available doesn’t mean it is the right choice for you—or that the people offering it have your best interests at heart. Ask every question, get independent opinions, and don’t let anyone pressure you into surgery just because you’re scared or searching for a way to feel whole again. Your vulnerability should never be a business opportunity.

Thank you Dr. Theunissen! After I had my children, my stomach had loose skin. No matter how much I worked out, nothing helped. I came to Dr. Theunissen Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of Baton Rouge for my tummy tuck and couldn't be happier with what a great job he did! He exceeded my expectations! During my first consultation, Dr. Theunissen was very down-to-earth, and I knew this was the office where I wanted to get my surgery. He answered all my questions and concerns. Brandy and the nurses were so friendly, and the office atmosphere was so calm. I plan to go back for my breast augmentation later this year because I'm so happy with my tummy tuck results!!!

Dr Theunissen did a beautiful job on my tummy tuck. The results are excellent! Before my surgery, I had sooooo many questions. Dr. Theunssen was so kind and patient with me in my consultation. I never felt uncomfortable or rushed at all.  He answered all my questions and concerns and addressed my expectations so I knew exactly what to expect.  They gave me all the information I needed to make a confident decision for my tummy tuck. I would highly recommend him if you're considering plastic surgery in Baton Rouge. I was referred to him by a friend from New Orleans, and I love my results! I would give him 10 stars if I could!

Dr. Theunissen is one of the best plastic surgeons around. I’ve had multiple procedures done by him, and still go for laser treatments done by his staff. Everyone there is amazing and very knowledgeable. Dr. Theunissen has remarkable bedside manner, and you will feel like you’re having a conversation with a friend. I’ve known quite a few people to get procedures done by him, and I’ve never heard one complaint.
