Butt implants - specialist surgeons in Melbourne?

Question

Considering butt implants with fat grafting - would love any recommendations of Victoria plastic surgeons with experience in this procedure.

Ryan A. Stanton, MD · Answer

Surgical prices vary by region, surgeon reputation, and surgical experience.  Keep in mind however that very few plastic surgeon truly specialize in buttock implants and the first time around has the absolute best chance for aesthetic success. Revision  for botch-jobs are not only very expensive but extremely challenging to achieve at least a good, not great, final outcome. For this reason, I literally have at least 60% of my patients fly in from other states or other countries as far as Canada, Holland, Australia, Hong Kong, Italy, Germany, India, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, etc... They all have done well flying back to their home countries, frequently, within 5 to 7 days after surgery. We give the patient special instructions how to manage the flight and how to do pressure releases while seated to  avoid wound healing complications.  I tell every patient, unless they work from home, plan on taking at least two weeks off of work and three weeks it's even better if possible.  Full activity can typically be resumed at about the six week mark post-op. Glad to help.

It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape implant you will require to best match your ideal butt image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the existing base width of your buttock will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. Liposuction of your lower back and fat transfer is also helpful as an adjunct to implants. Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon.

Sorry, I don't have any recommendations for Victoria plastic surgeons. We perform buttocks implant augmentation for patients nationally and internationally. Proper postoperative as well as preoperative guidelines will allow you to return to your home city following 7 days. A virtual consultation is required to give you definitive recommendations on implant size, etc.Please see examples below.
