How can I shape my buttocks without surgery?
Flat buttocks, sagging or lacking curve: the gluteus is a muscle — and like any muscle, it can be built. But the buttocks also depend on the skin (firmness) and on any dimpling. Our protocol works on all three, without surgery or injections.
The driving force: EMS or Ultra-Shape (HIEMT + radiofrequency), which trigger supramaximal contractions impossible to achieve at the gym — the equivalent of thousands of squats per session, with no impact on the joints. The muscle gains shape and lifts over the course. Alongside this: radiofrequency tightens the skin, and shockwave therapy smooths dimpling on the upper thighs and buttocks.
Whether you are a sportswoman looking to break through a plateau or getting back into exercise, the protocol adapts to your starting point, with photos and buttock measurements taken at every stage. Programme and timeline at the free body assessment (prices; see also the Firm Buttocks package).
The aesthetic assessment comes first
The assessment identifies what makes the buttocks “drop”: lack of muscle (flat buttocks), local excess (under the buttocks, saddlebags) or skin that is slackening. Whether you exercise but don't see your efforts paying off, or your glutes have never been toned, the answer is not the same.
How we work
Day 1 — assessment + profile and back photos
Shape is judged in profile: dated photos, palpation of muscle tone, choice of programme and schedule — because this protocol demands consistency.
Weeks 1 to 3 — the heart of the protocol: 6 sessions, every 3 to 4 days
Each appointment combines deep electrical stimulation of the glutes (tens of thousands of contractions per 30-minute session — the equivalent of hundreds of hours of squats), followed by radiofrequency to tighten the skin. The tight schedule is non-negotiable: it is what builds the muscle.
During the programme — shockwave therapy on dimpling
If the assessment revealed cellulite in the area, shockwaves smooth the skin's texture while the muscle builds up underneath.
Month 1 — first comparison photos
The buttocks lift and gain shape from the end of the programme — and the effect of the muscle stimulation keeps improving for a further 2 months after the last session.
Month 3 — final result and maintenance
Final photos at the peak of the result. Maintenance: one stimulation session a month, or your own squats — your choice, but one or the other.
Who it's for, and when to avoid it
Electrical stimulation is contraindicated with electronic implants, metal hardware in the area and during pregnancy; aching glutes in the first few days = a sign that it is working.
This is an aesthetic comfort treatment: it does not constitute a medical procedure, a diagnosis or a therapeutic treatment.
Possibilities and limits
What we do not promise.
This protocol builds muscle and tightens: it does not make you lose 10 kilos and is not suitable for significant excess weight without physical activity — in that case, we start with the excess weight protocol, and you come back to this one afterwards.

Frequently asked questions
Can you really shape your buttocks without squats?
Yes: the supramaximal contractions of EMS work the muscle far beyond voluntary effort. Combined with your own physical activity, if you have one, they multiply the result.
How many sessions until the buttocks lift?
Firmness can be felt from 3–4 sessions; the visible curve is judged at the end of a course of 6 to 10 sessions, with photos to back it up.
Does the result last over time?
As with sport: muscle needs maintaining. One maintenance session every 3 to 4 weeks is enough to keep the shape you have gained.
Does the protocol replace volumising injections?
It does not create artificial volume: it builds YOUR muscle and firms YOUR skin — a natural, gradual result with no injected product.
