• The expertise of the plastic surgeon.
    • It is preferable to have a specialist buttock surgeon inject buttock filler, rather than a general doctor who is not a cosmetic surgeon.
  • The volume of filler required.
    • Some patients underestimate the amount of filler required and the cost of this expensive procedure.
  • The type of filler being injected.
    • The brand of hyaluronic acid being injected is very important to the quality of the result. Harley Buttock Clinic uses HYAcorp filler.
    • Less expensive fillers will reabsorb quickly and may leave lumps.
  • Whether to have the procedure while awake using a local anaesthetic, or whether to be put to sleep.
    • Having the procedure when sedated avoids the pain of filler being injected, and also allows the surgeon to reach deeper areas of the buttocks, improving the result.
