Butt Augmentation or Implant for a Plus Size Woman?

Hello Doctors! I have a question about buttock implants / augmentation. I am a plus size woman (5’7” 200 lb) who is not interested in losing weight. I would just like rounder larger buttocks. I love my thick figure, but my butt is a little too flat. What is your feeling on this? Would any of you help a Diva out? Thanks in advance!

Lady Dee, You could be a candidate for either a fat transfer or implant buttock augmentation.

Be sure to discuss with your board-certified plastic surgeon what your expectations and goals are. more

The fat is then treated with antibiotics and carefully injected into the area of your buttock which needs more fullness. This would give you a much better and more natural result than gluteal silicone implants, which are reserved for very thin patients who do not have much fat to... more
