The search for an enhanced behind can lead to a gorgeous figure, but patients need to be careful. BBC News reports that a growing number of women in the US are getting plastic surgery to enhance the aesthetic appeal of their behinds. The American Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons reports that the numbers of people undergoing the procedure every year doubled in 2013. This is great news for fans of the voluptuous booty made famous by celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj, and offered by our beauty specialists at acclaimed facilities like Beverly Hills Physicians. However, the rapid increase in demand for treatment has also brought out a dark side – a growing market for dangerous, illegal bottom injections.

FBI statistics show a rise in the number of people posing as doctors to perform buttock augmentation, and the issue is particularly pervasive in Florida, New York, Texas and California. Instead of medically safe options like fat that has been transferred from other areas of the body though liposuction; some scam artists actually inject materials like olive oil and super glue into a patient’s bottom. Perhaps worst of all, it can take months or even years for the symptoms of a scam butt augmentation to appear.

Tragically, victims of the butt augmentation scam will often have already come to fully embrace their new bottom and the confidence boost that comes with it when they start to experience potentially painful and disfiguring side effects. With the risks so high, what inspires so many people to seek out treatment from these fraudulent docs? Often, plastic surgery quacks will make big promises of spectacular results at a cut-rate price. However, the truth is that it’s impossible to achieve the desired aesthetics without the trained precision and artistic eye that comes from years of focused study in the field.
