RESUMO
There have been various studies and literature reviews about gluteal augmentation, possibly due to the high complication rates associated with the procedure. But in the recent past, there has been extensive work in an effort to reduce the complications and various different methods have been developed for this purpose. This article brings to view the procedure followed in our surgery centre for fat grafting and implants for gluteal augmentation. We have compiled the complications we encountered with these procedures and the lessons we learnt to prevent them.
