How manyt cc's do I need to achieve a butt like Kim Kardashian? (photos)

One of the most important factors in
creating the perfect derriere with implants is indeed selecting the right size
AND shape. I have found the best way to assure this is to simply measure the
actual dimensions of the patients buttock cheeks. With these anatomical
measurements, I can select an implant that not only significantly augments the
buttock but also supplies the correct 3-dimensional enhancement to look as real
as possible. Therefore the only way for you to know what implant works best is
to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon specializing in this
procedure and have him/her take your measurements before selecting an implant
and proceeding with surgery. The largest buttock implant
available in the USA is a 690cc round implant. Indeed custom
implants can be ordered larger, not only at a premium price but at a premium
risk for most patients'. Unlike breast implants which are placed under
the very expandable tissue of the breast and half of the pectoral major muscle,
buttock implants are (most preferably) placed under (or at least within) the
largest strongest muscle of the body, the gluteus maximus muscle, which is not
nearly as expandable or forgiving. Thus most patients simply do not have
a large enough native buttock muscle to fit an implant over even 500 ccs',
without leading to significant complication such as wound breakdown/opening
&/or implant exposure...necessitating removal. Thus some of the "Kim Kardashians" out there could
have either gotten lucky with an extremely large implant, had a large volume of
some type of filler such as silicone or hydrogel (all highly NOT recommended
because of possible severe even deadly complications), and/or have relatively
natural genetically blessed derrière.Nonetheless, buttock implants are a
proven safe and effective method of buttock augmentation as long as the
recommendations of a board certified plastic surgeon specialist are adhered to.
Glad to help.
