I want a larger, rounder, fuller butt. What are some possible procedures I can try? I've heard of fat deposits and implants but I'm not sure how these procedures work. Please advise!!!

Buttocks augmentation can be performed with fat injections, special implants or both. Fat injections can be very successful if you have enough fat to appropriately fill the buttocks. The fat is often obtained from the hip area and sides to further enhance the shape and appearance of the area. If additional augmentation is required, then specially designed buttocks implants can be placed below the gluteal muscles. If the fat does not sufficiently survive in the area transferred, the results may be limited. Implants risk extrusion from pressure or inection.

I don't understand what "risk extrusion from pressure or inection" means, can you please explain. Also, can you recommend a doctor that does both procedures in Southern California (Riverside County). Thank you
