Urbinati adds that Gucci and Brunello Cucinelli make the slimmest suit pants, while stylist Jeanne Yang (who dresses Christian Bale, Robert Downey Jr. For the no-butt issue, I take the crotch up and the butt in, but it’s trickier.” Says stylist Ilaria Urbinati (who dresses Bradley Cooper, among others): “Men feel self-conscious if they have no butt or if they have sizable hips and bums, but that’s an easier fix: You let the fabric out of the pants. VIDEO: Tina Fey, Amy Poehler Promise to Go ‘Grand’ in Promosīody shapers are a go-to for women - Octavia Spencer confessed to “triple-Spanxing it” in 2011 - but men must rely on their tailors. “Patients who wear tight gowns are treated the day before or the day of so their glutes are tight for the red carpet.” “The Titan laser by Cutera causes an immediate collagen contraction,” he says. Laser treatments are preferred by dermatologist Peter Kopelson for tightening. But I have a feeling the next generation will be even more effective.” Koplin also has a treatment he calls Lipo F.E., for fat equalization: “On top of lipo, we massage the skin and knock off some of the fat, and the skin tightens.” These machines are from Israel and are used all over Europe. I like the Viora Reaction machine I’m testing now - four to eight treatments for about $3,000 to $5,000. It’s like a controlled injury: In a two- to six-week healing period, collagen smooths out the area and the skin tightens.” Lancer rarely uses one machine on a patient, instead harnessing a mix of heat sources: “It has a decent cumulative result but requires maintenance, from three up to six to eight treatments in two to three weeks.”Īdds plastic surgeon Lawrence Koplin: “It’s all about making the skin firmer, which can only be accomplished with radio frequency. They transmit heat a half-inch deep in the skin. “Now we use radio-wave machines to tighten: VelaShape III, Ultherapy, Exilis, etc. ![]() “What works for flabby skin on the derriere is fat transfer - but that takes a gallon of purified fat, which often people don’t have,” he says. Dermatologist Harold Lancer says 10 of his 70 patients each day ask for body-shaping procedures. In Los Angeles, dermatologists and surgeons have perfected combinations of heat, lasers and injections to round and smooth out the situation. Everyone agrees old-school lipo is not the answer: It creates uneven skin, and the fat inevitably grows back. The “Brazilian butt lift” - lipo followed by fat injections to contour the curve - might be popular in Rio de Janeiro and New York City but leave nasty surgical scars. Regarding medical options, not all are created equal. Increase water intake and cut out alcohol. Support that with high vegetable intake, and go for the cleanest selections to help you tighten up by omitting fried food, salt, dairy and gluten. Clippers, has diet recommendations for gluteus minimus: “Increase protein to avoid losing muscle mass. ![]() Meg Mangano, team nutritionist for the NBA’s L.A. “Muscles need time to recover.” Do as much cardio as you can, he adds, though “diet is two-thirds of the equation.” Pasternak also encourages movement throughout the day, particularly in gluteal-targeting sneakers (he has a line with New Balance, natch). ![]() But “don’t train your glutes every time you work out - maybe twice a week,” he says. ![]() But don’t look for one perfect ideal, says famed trainer Harley Pasternak (whose clients include Halle Berry, Rihanna and Katy Perry): “To some, it’s Jessica Biel to others it’s Kim Kardashian.”įor men and women, Pasternak recommends a workout of three sets of 20 reps of resistance exercises: lunges, steps, hamstring stretches, face-down arm and leg lifts and hip thrusts. Thanks go to booty trailblazer Jennifer Lopez and Daniel Craig (those Tom Ford rubber-glove skinny suits in Skyfall!) for undeniably highlighting this erogenous zone in both sexes. The daring cuts of gowns from the spring 2014 fashion shows - with their sheer, perforated fabrics, peekaboo lace and fishnet paneling - and the slim fit of men’s tux trousers by Gucci, Prada, Dolce and Valentino mean women and men must think about bringing up the rear. And given the va-va-voom nature of Golden Globes gowns the past few years ( Kate Hudson and Sofia Vergara come to mind), glutes are a major focus. Let’s hope not, because in Hollywood, both must be in fighting shape.
