Introduction to Buttock Lift
When it comes to the buttocks, volume is only part of the equation, since skin quality plays an equally important role. Over time, or following significant weight loss, the skin can lose its ability to retract, leading to sagging, flattening, or an uneven contour that no amount of exercise can fully correct.
