Hey ladies! So I've been researching butt implants...

Hey ladies! So I've been researching butt implants & reading all of the reviews on real self for months but I just recently created a profile. I have always been unhappy with my backside. No matter how many squats or exercises I did, my booty was still small. The only time I have any sort of butt is when I was pregnant or gained weight & even then it was still really small. It seems my butt is the last place I gain weight & the 1st place I lose it. I've been thin most of my life, but gained a lot of weight with 3 pregnancies & then after a car wreck due to medication. I lost the weight immediately after but the fluctuating turned my small booty into a saggy flat mess. I've tried squats & dead lifts & nothing helps. My back, butt & thighs all line up without any curve, just flat. I have to wear padded panties (my 5yr old calls em "mommy's butt bra" lol) just to look somewhat normal in my jeans. So after years of being insecure I finally made the decision to do something about it & get butt implants. At 5'7 1/2 & 120lbs I can't do the BBL & I'm wanting permanent results. I chose Dr. Ladd Atkins in Tulsa bc he's only about 1hr 45 min from where I live & he has all of the credentials & positive previews I was looking for. I had my consultation feb 19th. The staff was all very nice & Dr. Atkins was awesome. He was very professional but he's really laid back & instantly makes you feel comfortable. He answered all of my questions & fully explained the procedure, different placements, implants etc. So I paid the deposit & scheduled my surgery for June 12th. I'm gonna go crazy waiting til June!! But my husband works & I know I won't be able to drive for awhile so I wanted to make sure my kids were out of school. I'm doing the round implants & based on my measurements of 13.4 I can go between 275cc - 450cc. I'm not sure what I want to do. I don't want anything crazy like vanity wonder but I also don't want to be disappointed bc I went too small. It's not like boobs where u can compare by cup sizes. One size might look huge on someone & small on someone else with a different body type. Like I said I'm tall & thin but I do have breast implants DD. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated:) & I'll add some before pics & wish pics.

Woot woot! You're gonna look great & be healed before summer! I'm not even gonna lie, I'm jealous lol. I wish I could move my date up so bad. If I could still drive my kids back & forth from school I would so do it. They get out at the end of May & since dr Atkins only does surgery on Thursdays I just made it for the 2nd Thursday in June bc I have something already on June 6th. I may rearrange some things tho & see if I can at least move it up a week or so.

I'm three weeks postop with Dr. Adkins and my implants still look flat at the bottom.. They are no longer selling at the top of my back so I'm quite sure they dropped about as much is there going to how did yours look before you went back in to get fat injections do you have any pics

No I don't have any of my old pics but it looked the same as you're describing. All of my old pics are on my old phone. I used to have a ton of pics on here but we went through a phase where weirdo guys were using this site to look at girls pics & email nasty msgs so I deleted all my pics. It took awhile before I'd put more on here & I wrote a post saying I'd leave the currents as long as I didn't get any more pervy msgs. What you are describing is exactly how mine looked though so I would let him know.

Yes I will call today and let him know

Hey! Are you still active on here? From the dates I know it's been a while since your surgery. How tall are ya & what's your weight? I'm 5'8 and 126lbs, and need a butt bad!!! (Look at my profile lol) and I'm scheduled for surgery 1/12/2021. Love your booty!!! Just trying to figure out how many cc's I'd need to get your outcome or maybe just a tiny bit bigger.... and have a few other questions too. I'm like you, (different circumstances) when I had my boob job I had a big problem with the pain medication so HAVE to avoid them at all cost. Anywho would love to correspond a little with you if you get this. Take care.

First off I wanna say thank you to all you girls for posting pics & documenting your journey's in such great detail! It's really helped me a lot with my decision. I think I'm going to go with the 450cc round implant. I still have 3mos to go & may change my mind, after all I'm a girl;) but I'm pretty sure 450 is what it's going to be.

Is that only in the states that round goes higher than 300cc? Cause Mexico docs the majority say the biggest you can get is 300cc for round butt implants?
User Avatar
March 3, 2014
No I think that's just in MX. My dr. Said they go up to 600cc. Bc of my body measurements I can only go to 450.
User Avatar
March 3, 2014
Really that's weird that's a bummer cause if I wanted to exchange them for round I wanted to go 350cc :/ but I've heard of girls get 330cc in Mexico maybe it depends on doctor?
User Avatar
March 3, 2014
Oh I'm not sure if it's only 300, i thought u said it did lol. I was just sayin that must be only in mx bc it goes to 600 here.
February 27, 2014
I have similar body type and want to go round with atleast 5cm of projection. 400-450cc will look great on you!

Have you decided on a dr?
February 27, 2014
Had a consult with dr. Salama. Very nice and am confident he can deliver a nice bubble butt. But unsure if to go out of country for the softer implants.
User Avatar
February 27, 2014
Yeah dr salama is good I heard. I considered going to mx or dr but decided to stay close to home & I wanted them to be permanent. I've already replaced my boobs once lol don't wanna have to replace boobies & booty both every 10yrs or so haha that [RS bleep] expensive. Having the softer ones was really temptin tho!!

I'm confused I thought round only went up 300cc???
User Avatar
March 3, 2014
No it goes up to like 600 and something ccs. At least through aart they do. I was going to get 379 but im tiny and thought it would look unatural
March 3, 2014
Salama uses Implantech and they go up to 460cc. But cohesive gel ones also go higher than 300cc. Here's the link to Silimed sizes http://www.eurosurgical.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Gluteal-implants.pdf.

I'm just worried bout not bein happy with my results. I've seen Tons & Tons of reviews that say they wish they'd gone bigger but none really that wanted smaller. & I'm tall. most of the girls on here that have small cc but big booty's that I've liked their results have been short or had more fat to transfer & the tall girls that I've liked their results have had a bigger cc. So bc I'm tall that was my reasoning lol. However I am kinda worried bc I'm very tiny weight wise & I have a pic I'll post that I dont wanna look like! As far as lookin unnatural I don't want it to where u can see the implant unnatural but I don't mind bein able to tell Ive had work, I want a donk lol & I already look unnatural with 650cc breast implants & size 0 jeans with no booty:( hopin a big booty will even me out. Plus as big Sean says How your waist anorexic & then yo ass is colossal? Lol jk jk;)
