I'm 5'7 138lbs, i've wanted a bbl but am now leaning towards butt implants as i won't get the results i want with how little fat i have, i also was around 128lbs before and may lose weight to go back to that weight. . My main concerns are if it will look and feel real and how bad the scarring is. Do i look like i'd get nice results? I also am curious how long i would not be able to drive and go to work , i've included goal photos and my butt is in the last two
Answer: Butt implants Dear Madison, Thanks for posting your pictures and your goal pictures. Butt implant are your only option to achieve your butt size goal. BBL disappears after few months or even sooner. I am a board certified plastic surgeon and have been in practice for over 35 years. I have performed butt implants surgery on well over 800 patients and about 300 of them had BBL before having butt implants surgery with me. Obviously, the fat disappeared. Think about it this way. If large amount of fat injection was consistent and reliable , most women would have used it for breasts augmentation over breasts implants, however the reality is that breasts implants are the number one cosmetic surgery in the US... Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who perform large numbers of butt implants in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most importantly, check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive with one incision between the cheeks. Best of luck, Dr Widder widderplasticsurgery.com

Answer: Butt Augmentation Candidate Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for butt implants with fat transfer or a skinny BBL. A BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. In addition, if you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. Depending on your desired results, you may be asked to gain some weight. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience with Butt Implants and BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Butt implants vs BBL Hello, Based on your photos and description, I would steer you towards buttock implants. If you only have 10 pounds extra, a bbl would not give you the results you have pictured as your goal, it would only be possible to get half way to that goal booty with that amount of fat. With that being said, You would need 4 weeks of light duty to properly heal. The incision would be located in the crack of your buttocks so that if you don’t have your cheeks spread, no one would be able to see the incision. Please feel free to start out with a consultation here at Smith Plastic Surgery, in Las Vegas, NV, if you would like to go over in more detail.

Answer: Good Candidate, Ensure Experienced Surgeon It appears that you would be a good candidate for buttock implants, however the exact contour that you desire will be difficult to achieve even with implants. Buttock implant are overall not a common procedure and therefore I would make sure to seek out an experienced surgeon, meaning you may have to travel to find a board certified plastic surgeon who does a high volume of buttock implants. Everyone will have a specific postoperative protocol, but about one month following surgery is normal for weight offloading, meaning this may be the amount of time that you need to take off of work.

Answer: Composite Buttock Augmentation Thank you for your question. In order to achieve the results that you posted, you would need a combination of a buttock implant plus fat transplantation. I just performed surgery very similar to yours recently. I performed liposuction of the hips and outer thighs and placed fat in the indentation of the lateral buttock in combination with buttock augmentation with a silicone implant. This procedures termed a "composite" buttock augmentation. You are an excellent candidate for this. Make sure that you seek out only plastic surgeons who have considerable experience with buttock augmentation with implants. Best wishes to you.
