If you're reading this, chances are you've already seen the buzz around non-surgical butt lifts. Scroll through Instagram or TikTok and it feels like everyone is showing off their curves. But behind every glossy photo, people want the same thing: real, honest before-and-after results.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are often chosen for patients who want instant volume and definition. Results are visible immediately after treatment and can be tailored depending on the amount injected.
Patient 1 – 200 ml total (Macrolite )
100 ml injected into each side to correct hip dips.
Patient 2 – 80 ml total (Macrolane)
40 ml per side, focused on projection rather than overall size.
Patient 3 – 50 ml total (Macrolite)
A smaller dose of 25 ml per side was used for a petite frame.
These cases show that HA fillers don't always require massive amounts. Even 25 ml can make a visible difference, especially for smoothing hip dips or correcting mild sagging.
Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fillers work differently. Instead of instantly filling with gel, they stimulate the body's own collagen production, meaning results appear gradually but last longer. This makes them popular with patients who prefer a more natural, progressive enhancement.
Patient 4 – Devolux (5-10 vials)
Initial injections created subtle changes, with volume gradually increasing over the following weeks as collagen built up.
Not everyone can go through surgery like a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). It's invasive, comes with higher risks, and requires a long recovery period. That's why many people are turning to a simpler, more convenient option: butt fillers. This treatment is non-surgical, meaning no incisions, no fat transfer, and no scars. Recovery is quick — most patients can go back to normal activities right after their injections (just avoid intense exercise for 24–48 hours). It doesn't disrupt daily life, which makes it much easier to fit into a busy schedule.
Another big advantage is flexibility:
A small amount can smooth out hip dips or refine curves. Larger amounts can create a noticeably fuller, rounder shape. With hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, adjustments are even easier — if you don't love the outcome, the product can be dissolved. That's why we often recommend starting with smaller volumes and adding more over time for the most natural look.
Besides HA and PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) fillers, some people also choose CaHA (calcium hydroxyapatite) fillers. While CaHA is an option, HA and PLLA remain the most commonly recommended because of their safety, versatility, and reliable results.
Not all fillers are the same. Here's what's most commonly used today:
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers (Macrolite) - Immediate volume, smooth texture, lasts around 12–18 months. Great for patients who want visible results right away.
Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA, branded as Devolux®) - Works by stimulating your own collagen. Results appear gradually (4–6 weeks), but can last up to 2-3 years. Often called the “Sculptra Butt Lift.”
This depends on the filler type:
Hyaluronic acid fillers: 12–18 months
Devolux (PLLA): 2-3 years
Maintenance sessions are common, especially for those who want to build volume gradually.
Like any cosmetic procedure, butt filler treatments come with considerations. Temporary swelling and bruising are common, and some patients may experience mild discomfort or small lumps, which typically resolve with proper technique.
And let's be clear: butt fillers aren't for everyone. If you're looking for dramatic Kardashian-level curves, surgery may be the only way. But if you want a safer, faster, and more subtle approach? Fillers fit the bill.
