I had my buttock implants done about 8 years ago. I'm having them replaced. I'm also getting a butt lift and full body lipo. I'm not nervous. This is literally my 3rd surgery. 1st surgery was in costa rica 10 years ago and i had fat grafting and it didn't work, next butt implants...it was fine for a while but i should have done more research on the surgeon and i didn't. implants have shifted (more so with me working out).. I'm very happy i have friends have went to Gongora so im excited!! I was actually thinking of going smaller (i know that sounds crazy) lol but i have 480 cc implant and the way they were placed makes my butt look pointy. I get tons of attention and it's getting annoying honestly to always be known for my butt! ugh idk. i wish it was maybe 400cc. I'm 5'11 so it looks great but the attention sometimes isn;t. Also if i i stand a certain way it looks overly fake and super pointy. i think it's either due to shifting or the placement idk.. but anyway im happy to get it corrected!!!

Hi Fari!! I'm getting implants April 1st SOO excited!! I have some questions for you since you already have implants. What style do you have round or oval? Did you originally want just projection or an overall hourglass? Will you get a replacment and fat transfer this time or just implants. I am torn between round and oval currently so any feedback is so helpful. Please post pics if you are comfortable. Thanks in advance!

Hello, and thanks for sharing. However, I am 5`10" and I am planning on getting round 500ccs implants, however, I don't have a visual about how big it is. Lke mentioned earlier, if you feel comfortable with posting pictures, we will appreciate it and it will also be helpful. Thanks again,

congrats on surgery! i have round i originally wanted an hour glass. i don't believe the last surgeon placed them in properly it's very visible also you can feel it. If i stand at an angle i look like nicki minaj lol and it looks fake. i possibly would want to go a little smaller or have it look natural. i will get lift also to help with loose skin.. i will possibly get fat transfer unsure yet..

Thank you so much for the picture.. I have an better visual.. I might be going to dr. Gongora, but I don't want a butt lift and he's the only doctor that has told me that I needed one ought my other consultants.. I'm confident that you are going to get the results you want.. We deserve it.. keep us posted and I appreciate your time and story. I will do the same. I'm going to post some before pictures, but I want have mines dne until April..thanks again.

i understand i didn't want one either but i have cellulite so im happy to get one. Also if i go smaller i would have to get a butt lift due to extra skin. I don't want to go too small maybe about 420 cc or something..
February 26, 2014
U look good... I think what you have is perfect for ur frame... I'm impressed and confident now that I see you that I will be good with 500cc round. However, I won't be going to Dr.Gongora, one girl on here mentioned that she went to him, and his work is great, buthe didn't give her what she wanted... But she's a trooper... I'm sure that you will be in good hands and ur results are Going to be good..

I just had butt implants done. They are intra muscular. They are also breast implants. Ive been told they cant shift. but I don't trust that. I do a lot of heavy weight training. Lifestyle. Im only 7 weeks in . Where were yours placed ? I already believe that at some point Im going to have to have them redone. Just paid a lot of money and the pain was awful. still in recovery obviously. Can you remember where yours were placed ? How long did it take for them to start shifting ?
