Bad Butt Implant for Male

I had Butt Implants surgery 5 weeks ago. When I go to sit down or bend over, you can see the pronounced outline of the implant. When I squeeze my butt cheeks together, it looks like I have something implanted there. Also, when I touch my butt, I can feel the implants. I am muscular, lean and in great shape. Is the leaness of my body affecting the outcome or have I had a bad implantation? I would like to send a photo if I can.

Butt implants complication

The first reason is that if I use an implant, the implant will be less disguised by the overlying tissue. The second reason is that if I want to use fat, the fact that the patient is lean means that there is little fat donor tissue available. In your particular case, the implant placement appears to be either sub fascial or subcutaneous instead of... more

Being thin is a problem.

Being thin is a difficult problem when deciding to use buttocks implants. The implants need to be broader with less projection and they need to be placed into an intra-muscular position. I agree that your implants are either subcutaneous or subfascial. Ask your surgeon which plane was used. Because you are only five weeks post surgery the implants are going to be firm for a while longer. You will only know the full extent of the outcome when you reach six months... more

Rotated Buttock Implant

The picture shows that the implants do not have enough coverage, and at least the right implant is rotated. You probably are not a good candidate for that butt implant. You are lean and that poses a problem in offering you many options. However you have some options 1. Liposuction to the illic crest and love handles and may be the posterior thigh will define your bittock, AND FAT TRANSFER 2.
