Longevity of butt implants. How do they look several years post op?

 There are two ways to answer your question. On one hand,  the longevity of buttock implants is "permanent" because the implant is a soft semi-solid silicone rubber implant and therefore cannot leak or rupture unlike silicone gel breast implants. Once the procedures is done without complication, the implant will last forever  and essentially outlast the patient.  On the other hand how does the result/appearance last over time?  It is very difficult to get patients back in for follow-up beyond six months much less one year. I have had patients come back in for surgery up to about five years later with the implant still in the proper position. Additionally I've been doing this procedure for over 15 years now, one typically assumes no news is good news when hundreds of patients have not called to complain about a complication or come back in for evaluation of the potential complication beyond 5 - 10 years post-op. Glad to help. 

Dear madam,    I believe that you meant how long do the butt implants results last, because , butt implants in the US ,  unlike breasts implants , are solid and last , theoretically, forever. (in South America silicone gel implants are used too ). I have been doing butt implants surgery for over 16 years and so far , none of the implants broke off.    It is difficult to show very long term results, because , in my practice the follow up lasts for 1 year. After 1 year, it is rare to see patients come back unless they have a problem or they return for additional surgery. I have few patients who had butt implants surgery 2-3 years ago and when they came back for different surgery, I took pictures of their butt. If you contact my office, I'll send you a 3-4 years old before and after picture of butt implants surgery.   Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who do lots of butt implants surgery in accredited surgery center. Check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent , attractive and natural looking. Also, check the 'realself'  reviews for positive experience reports.                 Best of luck,                               Dr Widder

Your buttock implants shouldn't have to be changed and should last forever since they are solid.  The results of your buttock implants can last forever but depend on each patient. in this way it is unpredictable. 

Buttock implants are permanent.  Since they are in a solid like form, they will not leak.  They will last unless there are complications like infection.

I have patients who have had their implants over 10 years and are still doing very well. These are solid silastic implants that seldom break. I have seen only 1 broken implant and 1 infected implant pocket that required implant removal. In that BBL has become more common, we are typically using implants in patients who do not have sufficient fat for autologous transfer buttock augmentation. Good luck!
