The Miami Thong Lift is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin from the lower buttocks and reshapes and lifts the area for a firmer, more youthful appearance. It is ideal for patients with sagging lower buttocks due to aging or significant weight loss.


During surgery, strategic incisions are placed in the natural gluteal crease to remove excess skin and reposition tissue. Fat transfer after liposuction or alloClae injections can be included to enhance volume and symmetry. The procedure is completed as an outpatient surgery.


Primarily the lower buttocks with subtle enhancements to the upper buttocks and upper thighs for a smooth, rounded silhouette.





Good candidates are in good health, at a stable weight, and seeking natural, discreet enhancement. Patients with poor skin quality or insufficient fat reserves may require alternative procedures.


Results include a firmer, rounded lower buttocks contour with natural-looking curves. Swelling subsides in a few weeks, and scars remain discreetly hidden. Combining fat transfer can further enhance volume and symmetry.
