Lower Limit

1 or 2 cm below the infra gluteal fold corresponding to a convexity

Differences Male vs Female

Males

As the majority of males wear jeans with pockets getting over the infragluteal fold  or banana fold to end under the infragluteal fold,never lift the infra gluteal area .

Females

Most women wear jeans with pockets ending over the infragluteal fold or banana fold . Thats why a convexity of the infragluiteal area below the infra gluteal fold should not be allowed for any feminilisation of the butt. 

Therefore the lifting of the infragluteal area towards the banana fold has to be done systematically .

Exceptions

If men wear jeans for females or women wear jeans made for males, ask the patient what he/she wishes for the infra gluteal area, explaining him/her the differences .
