May need to switch doctors :( My questions, dr.2. told me muscle is like cutting thin paper, how do doctors open up the butt cheek enough to dissect a butt muscle place an implant then cover the implant and stitch up the muscle without hurting your sciatica or muscle is this really possible? 2nd. Is it true the implant will slide down my leg if placed subfascial? 3 is there truth to oval or round flipping worse than the other? I think round wld be bigger.Thank you greatly!

Answer: Buttock Augmentation The placement of the implant depends on the patients body type. I use but Submuscular and sub facial placement for my buttock augmentations. I can assure you theat implants placed in the sub facial placement will not slide down your leg. Sometimes submuscular placement prevents the implant from dropping causing a high riding implant with an artificial look. Again, this depends on the patient body type. Be sure you are chosing a board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience with buttock implants.

Answer: Subfascial vs. Intramuscular Buttock Implants Buttock implants can be placed as you know in both the subfascial and intramuscular locations. There are advantages and disadvantages of each approach. Smaller low profile round buttocks implants are used in the intramuscular plane which does not go deep enough to injure the sciatic nerve nor can they flip or rotate from this tight pocket. The muscle is not paper thin and is actually quite thin. The surgeon makes the intramuscular plane, since it is not a natural space between the tissues, and the goal is not to make it too thin in the process. Larger buttocks implants of either round or oval shape can be placed in the subfascial plane which is a more natural plane of dissection. The fascial lining is very thin and the implants do have a higher propensity for dropping over time and developing malposition.
