Trend: Bigger buttocks and more shapes

Bigger buttocks and more curves, who doesn't want that? Bigger buttocks are a real trend, making us look at our butt in the mirror more besides our face. In Africa and Brazil, it was always popular to have a big butt. But now we are seeing it more and more in the West too. From Jennifer Lopez's muscular body to Kim Kardashian's butt, there's really no avoiding it. Some choose the gym and others opt for a treatment, we believe in the combination. We briefly list the most popular treatments with all their pros and cons:

Bigger buttocks and more shape with Lanluma X:

Lanluma X is an injectable polu-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulant. It can be used in two ways to activate natural collagen: either to increase fullness and add volume to both the face and body; or to create a more youthful appearance by helping the body naturally correct medium to deep facial lines. This way, you create bigger buttocks and more shapes, but in a natural way.

+ The result is gradually visible

+ The end result is very natural

+ The treatment lasts an hour and is virtually painless

+ The treatment has no impact on the body

+ Your body is put to work itself

+ You can sit immediately after treatment

- The result is not permanent

- First day buttocks may feel sore

- No sauna or sunbed for the first 2 weeks

- How fast collagen is produced varies from person to person

+ You see results almost immediately

+ Your body breaks down the product (if it is hyaluronic acid-based) itself again

+ Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally occurring in the body

+ You can repeat/maintain the treatment

- It stays on average for 1 year

- The product is not always a body substance

- It is not permanent

Liposuction:

Liposuction involves suctioning subcutaneous fat away from localised fat deposits. This involves using a thin tube to suck away the fat. In most cases, fat is removed from another area of the body and injected into the buttocks. This could be the abdomen, arms or legs, for example.

+ It is a permanent solution

+ It looks natural (depends on the amount of fat used)

+ You see results quickly

+ It uses the body's own fat

- The recovery period is a lot longer

- You have to go under general anaesthesia, which is quite an assault on your body

- The treated area is very sensitive

- The fatty tissue may start to accumulate/ stick together

- You cannot sit for the first week(s)
