Flat butt after Butt Implants, what should I do?

B
bianca77777Mar 17, 2014

I am 5'11" and weighed 137lbs before my buttox surgery three days ago. I still feel my butt look flat. What are my options? He used round smooth silicon implants. Will I need a lift now? The lift is just as much money as the implants. My doctor said I did not have enough fat to transfer. He said I would have to wait 3 months to lift my buttox. HELP!

For any surgery, age may play a role in medical clearance but one's overall health is the most important factor.  I have performed fat transfer and buttock implants on plenty of 60+ year olds that were otherwise in excellent health pre-operatively.  Glad to help.

Allow me to share with you some information that you may not hear elsewhere. There are only two proven safe and relatively effective methods for Buttock Augmentation and Hip Augmentation: 1) Autologous Fat Transfer (using your own fat, transferring from one area of the body to the other) and 2)...

  500 cc implants placed in a submuscular plane would be a great deal of volume.  Placing implants that are even larger in a more superficial position should make the implants even more visible.  I would have to examine you to determine what I would recommend.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos...
