Buttock Augmentation Surgery – Butt Implants – Chicago, IL
OVERVIEW
Whether a patient wants an improved look or to get the look of their favorite celebrity, butt augmentation can be the right choice. With this surgery, the butt is enhanced through a silicone implant that is designed to add volume and roundness, resulting in a fuller, shapelier butt. Our surgeons advise implants for thinner patients who don’t have enough natural fat for the fat transfer method. Implants also provide more dramatic results where the butt can be enlarged quite extensively. Overall, the implants will have a natural look and feel to them.
SURGICAL TECHNIQUE
During the initial consultation, the body will be evaluated to determine if the patient is a better candidate for a fat transfer or implants. For those who are thin with low fat volume, an implant will be advised. During this process, the buttock is fitted with a soft silicone implant on top of the bone area, and under the muscle. We will discuss the type of implants during the consultation before any decision is made. The decision for the shape and size of the gluteal implants is made based on the individual desires and the general body type of the patient. For those who are wondering how implants will look and feel, the technology advancement of today produces implants that are natural and safe for long-term use.

Restylane Refyne and Defyne Injestions – I think Dr. Gutowski and his Managing Partner Ellen are the best Med Spa & Plastic Surgery team in Chicago area. I lost 45 pounds in the past year and was very unhappy with my sagging skin around my mouth and the nasolabial folds and marionette lines were really getting deeper and visible. Ellen was so kind and helpful to schedule my appointment around my busy life and is “M.”

I had a wonderful experience with Laura on my first DermaSweep treatment. While providing a soothing, calming environment, she took the extra time to explain the treatment and its effects on the skin. My skin appeared clear and smoother than ever before…even days after – I will definitely be back!

The number one thing needed after deciding to do a major surgery, is being 200% comfortable with your surgeon. We couldn\’t be happier we found Dr. G! After reading up on what procedures there are, the types of surgeries we may be looking at, healing times, etc (thank goodness for this site!) we began searching for the right surgeon. No way was I going through something so hugely important in my life, and so incredibly “Sam”

Still getting used to being flat! 🙂 – Dr. G has been amazing. He has confidence in his profession. He speaks to you as an individual and makes recommendations on how to get the most from your procedure. From the consult to the procedure and follow up visits, he takes his times, focuses on your questions and you never feel rushed or as though you are just another patient. He takes pride in what he “I.”

I was at the Med Spa recently for the Melasma laser treatment and had the best experience! The Spa is gorgeous and the staff went out of their way to make sure that I was comfortable every step of the way.

Drainless Tummy Tuck, Easier Than What I Was Expecting Recovery!
Wow! Wow! If you’re going to do a tummy, you absolutely have to see Dr. G. He does a drainless tummy tuck, which is in my experience has been an effortless recovery. I was preparing for the worst, and am beyond ecstatic with my recovery. Unbelievable, I told his staff that sometimes I think I’m just dreaming…… If it hadn’t been for that first sneeze, though! He’s a very skilled and talented surgeon! He has “Drainless Tummy Tuck, Easier Than What I Was Expecting Recovery!”

Rating: 5 Your Feedback: I’ve had a few consults with other plastic surgeons, all of whom were nice and professional, but there was something different about Rejuvenate Med Spa and Dr. Gutowski.

Dr. G is an Artist!! – Dr. Gutowski is absolutely fantastic. He is an artist and an expert at what he does and he prides himself on delivering the best outcomes possible.

My first procedure with Dr Gutowski was a few years ago, a Mommy Makeover that changed my life! The tummy still looks great and my breasts feel natural. But then my face needed some work.

The photos looked fantastic, so I contacted Dr. Julia Kerolus, a facial plastics surgeon, to meet with me and explain the procedure and the science behind it and the expected timeline for results. After that i underwent the procedure at her outpatient office in Glenview. The entire process, from “Julia Kerolus”

“Great Determination to Solve the Problem – Northbrook, IL – Scars can happen overnight, but to fix them takes years, I have been to few doctors before I came to Dr. Gutowski, and almost all the other doctors were more determined to clean my wallet then to fix my problem. Dr. Gutowski set the price and kept the promise. Even thought I went many times for the follow up. My problem was deformed lower lip “T.”

Dr G was very respectful about my concerns. The options he offered seemed like they were selected just for me. I’m glad I had my surgery by him. His staff was very supportive. I later found out that the hospitals where he does surgery are ranked very high.

Dr.Kerolus is amazing! I have never looked or felt so good. She was so patient, kind and competent. She took her time to explain everything and follow-up with me to ensure I was happy with the result and I was. My eyebrows are more arched, my lips are full (but in a totally natural way), my jaw line is slimmed all in just 1 short visit with Dr.Kerolus. I cannot recommend her more. I will “Zrria Richardson”

I had neck liposuction and (neck) skin tightening done by Dr. Gutowski. Dr. Gutowski is not only very skilled and knowledgeable, but also patient and understanding. He explained all the steps, what to expect and talked me through the procedure. The procedure and recovery were quick and relatively painless. I love the results!! I would highly recommend Dr. Karol Gutowski!!!!

I would recommend Dr. Gutowski to anyone! Total professional and artist! Wonderful bedside manner, caring, and skilled! Dr. G went above and beyond with my procedures. I had a body lift, breast lift, lipo, and fat transfer to breast. I was up the same day. I believe due to no drain use and a great surgery center- River North Surgery Center! Ellen, his business manager, makes everything…

Couldn’t be happier! – Could not be more grateful that I choose Dr. Gutowski to perform my explant. Long story short…I have always wanted breast implants and then one day decided to do it. However, they came out bigger than what I had wanted and after 3 years and just couldn’t do it anymore. Hard to sleep, workout, breathe..just wanted them out. I chose Dr. Gutowski because I felt comfortable with him and his…

Dr. Gutowski is absolutely the best! He rescued me after another doctor completely botched my surgery. He kept his promises and really restored my faith in doctors. He’s the same concerned doctor after you pay him as he was before and he clearly and genuinely wants to help his patients. I’m convinced that he’s one of the few doctors who did not decide to practice medicine just for the money. Go to him and avoid “Anonymous”

A no drain Tummy Tuck for the Holidays – Northbrook, IL – Prior to meeting Dr. G I had two consultations with some very high profile North Shore surgeons. One of them was ok but way too expensive. The other was very highly recommended but something about him creeped me out and I didnt feel comfortable. I found Dr. G on Real Self and since the consult was free I thought I would give it “F.”

I’ve used aFresh for Botox/Xeomin and general skincare. Everyone on staff has been wonderful, organized, accommodating. I once showed up a week early for my appointment, and they offered to try to fit me in then and there. I could not be more satisfied with the Xeomin injections I got from Dr Gutowski. He gave me the perfect amount, and drastically improved some asymmetry in my eyebrows. I also really appreciated the skincare consultation with “S.M.”

So far I’ve had one Brazilian LHR session with Michelle. She was so professional, and the place was very clean and quiet. I felt very comfortable here despite the fact that I was baring my lady parts. Will definitely be completing my 5 additional sessions, and I will try to report back on the success. The machine they use is new, large, quick, and powerful, so apparently they’re having great results so far.

Just had a Body Lift/Circumferential Tummy Tuck with Lipo Included , Feeling Excited! – Chicago, IL – I’m having a body lift/circumferential tummy tuck in 4 days with Dr. G. After having lost 108 lbs, I’m finally getting rid of the loose skin hanging around my abdomen and back. My final goal is to at last be able to show my full six pack(only my upper abs are visible now ), which I feel is “B.”

I had a consultation for breast augmentation and liposuction with a few surgeons. I could tell that Dr G and his staff were the most caring and experienced after just a few minutes in the office. They did not pressure me into having anything done. Dr G explained my options and Wendy worked with me to make the cost affordable.

Best PS in Illinois – Chicago, IL – After consulting 4 other doctors I knew my search was over when I met Dr. Gutowski. His bedside manners were impeccable, he asked the right questions, was realistic with me, and kept me informed the whole time. I knew my case wouldn’t be easy because I have a pre-existing condition that causes Chronic Anemia. For my story to be a success I needed a PS who excels “X.”

Dr. Kerolus has done Botox for me 3 times now, and her technique is honestly painless. She is very thoughtful and precise, and the results look completely natural. Not to mention, she is very knowledgeable and listens to the beauty concerns you want to address overall. I’ve had filler and non-surgical nose job with Dr, Gutowski, and could not be happier. He is slow and meticulous about shaping where he directs the filler, and takes “H.R.”

Great Doctor, Friendly Staff, EXCELLENT WORK! – Chicago, IL – I highly recommend Dr. Gutowski. His office in the Chicago area is easy to get to and the service is terrific. I drove 2 1/2 hours to have this procedure, and would do it again in an instant. More importantly, I will continue going to him any time I need special cosmetic care….and I highly recommend you consult with him to see what he can “N.”

I am very impressed that he actually takes the time to talk me to via email and phone for any questions I had which is very rare for busy plastic surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Gutowski. – – I was always self conscious about my thighs and tummy. Those areas are where I can easily gain weight esp the “J.”

Very happy with my results- I had a great experience with Dr. Gutowski. He really listened to what I wanted. After going to several doctors that kept telling me to go bigger, Dr. G really understood my vision and he helped me achieve the look I wanted which was figure enhancing, and supportive of my athletic lifestyle.

I saw Dr Gutowski in the Champaign office. He is awesome. He listens to you and what you are wanting to acheive. I have always had a hollowness under my eyes and it has gotten worse with age and medical problems. He gave me Radiesse under my eyes. He has a special technique that gets the filler where it needs to be with very little pain. It looks great! I also had Restylane Lyft for “S.”

Needed Fillers – Dr. Gutowski has the latest products and technologies. He also is great to work with. Highly recommended.

56 Year Old Women. Lost 90 Pounds on my Own – Chicago, IL – Dr. Gutowski was so passionate about his work. I felt safe and informed at all times. I had received all my before and aftercare instructions immediately. I had almost ten hours of surgery and walked out of surgery center that day. The recovery took awhile but the pain was manageable. The doctor answered all calls and emails personally. Amazing job!

“Just LOVE them 🙂 – Office and staff were very welcoming and helpful. I felt well taken care of and important to my Doctor. I did not feel rushed into anything and decisions were up to me. So far I do recommend them and I am hopeful that I will continue to recommend them :)”
DURING/AFTER SURGERY
Recovery from a butt augmentation procedure where implants were used generally has a 2-3 week recovery period. Swelling and bruising is common but this will only last for a few days. During this period, the patient must avoid putting weight on the buttocks. When sitting or lying down, the weight must be on the thighs or abdomen until the buttocks are fully recovered. The scarring will be mostly concealed as the incision is usually positioned in between the buttock cheeks. The patient will be able to go back to a normal routine after 1-2 weeks, and exercises may be resumed after 6 weeks.
BUTT AUGMENTATION FAQS
HOW NATURAL?
The quality of the implants used and the expertise of the surgeon are very important factors when it comes to the aesthetic satisfaction after the procedure. The implants should look and feel natural especially after the swelling subsides. When done correctly, your buttocks will look as natural as someone who spent weeks at the gym.
NATURAL OR SYNTHETIC?
This will depend on the patient’s body and personal goals. Natural method of fat transfers is advised if the patient has enough fat deposits that can be grafted and reinstated in a deflated butt. However, if the patient is thin, an implant is recommended as there may not be enough fat to transfer. It is also important to note that fat transfers do not last forever, and eventually the body will reabsorb some of the fat. An implant offers a permanent solution. The pros and cons of both techniques must be discussed in detail so that the best decision can be made to meet the patient’s overall goals.
WHAT ABOUT SITTING?
In the first couple of weeks after surgery, the patient must not put any weight on the buttocks and should place the weight on the thighs instead. Once the pain and swelling subside, the patient will be able to sit and go back to their normal routine. A soft pillow in the first several months will help ease some pressure. The implants are placed on the upper part of the buttocks and so patients must not be anxious if they are sitting on the implants. Over time, the implants will take on a natural look and feel.
WEIGHT GAIN?
Any significant weight gain after a cosmetic buttocks surgery may compromise the surgical results. This is a concern especially after a butt augmentation because fats are deposited in the buttocks area first, which will affect the shape and contour the surgery already achieved. It is best to maintain a healthy lifestyle with good diet and regular exercise to ensure the long-term effect of this procedure.
