Do you have to be a certain weight to get butt implants?

Question

I'm 18 years old. I've been doing research on butt implants for a while 2 years. I'm often 100lbs and sometimes come down in the 90s. My butt is not flat but then again it's not big either.

As long as the potential patient is otherwise healthy without medical problems, there is no specific weight limits for buttock implant surgery. On petite patients, the key is to select the appropriately proportioned implant for their small frame and, of course, place the implant within the muscle not "subfascial" or on top.  Glad to be of help.

Buttock implants are probably the only option given your lack of fat stores.
Intramuscular implants can improve volume by 400 cc or so, depending upon the size of the individual. A significant amount above this volume compromises healing by creating more tension on the healing incision.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Thank you for your question about weight previous to butt implant surgery. While there are no specific weight limits that are required, it is important to take your height, weight and BMI into account when choosing the appropriate butt implants optimize your results. Many patients also benefit form maintaining a stable weight before surgery, as this helps with the body's ability to undergo anesthesia, the surgical procedure, and recovery. Good luck with your surgery!
