ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Over the past 4 decades, gluteal augmentation has increased enormously in popularity, and numerous techniques have been developed to provide patients with the best possible outcomes. The submuscular technique has been shown to be a reliable option for a broad cohort of patients.OBJECTIVES:
The main objective of this retrospective study was to describe the characteristics and clinical outcomes of a group of patients who underwent gluteal augmentation by the submuscular technique.METHODS:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 80 female patients who underwent submuscular gluteal augmentation with silicone implants between August 2019 and May 2022. All of the patients were operated on by the authors of the present study.RESULTS:
Information about patient demographics, implants, complications, and treatments was analyzed. Moreover, the satisfaction of the patients was assessed by means of a short survey. The most frequent complication was wound dehiscence. Only 7 patients required surgical revisions, and 2 required isolated antibiotic therapy. All complications were effectively addressed and no implants had to be removed. Furthermore, the retrospective analysis revealed a noteworthy association between the size of the implant and the occurrence of complications.CONCLUSIONS:
The submuscular method provides the best aesthetic results and adequate safety for patients. It significantly minimizes the possibility of complications, such as fluid collection due to muscle fiber dissection or implant exposure/extrusion.
