Answer: Can I get my Butt Implants removed under local anesthesia? (photos) It should be a rather simple operation. I might offer IV sedation with the local anesthesia to take the "edge" off or control your nervousness. Fees in the $3,500 ranges.

Answer: You cannot just remove butt implants Based on your pictures, you are an excellent candidate for a simultaneous butt implant removal and fat grafting transfer. This procedure is technical and requires advanced tools and expert technique. First, an ultrasound probe must be used to ensure that the transferred fat does not get into the pocket created by the implant once the implant is removed as this will result in the death of all the fat. Second, use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat will be required since you probably don’t have much fat to begin with since you elected to have a butt implant rather than a BBL the first time go around. Additionally, VASER allows for thinner layer of fat grafting that is required for refilling of the area where the implant was previously positioned. This is because this layer has been thinned out and can only accept liquified fat that is harvested using VASER technology. Fat should also be harvested with 1) a closed looped system to process the fat in order to optimize transfer time and avoid your fat from becoming contaminated and 2) strategic micro-packet transplant technique that maximizes graft take. These processes have demonstrated over 90% fat graft take. Finally, we must consider whether you will need a skin tightening maneuver such as a lateral thigh and buttock tuck that might be required if you have sagging buttock skin. Last but not least, attention must be given to providing you the buttock shape that YOU desire. This means using our proprietary BBL assessment tool.One of the most common reasons for disgruntled Butt implant patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. Our buttock assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

Answer: Removing gluteal implants It may be easy enough to remove gluteal implants if that’s all that’s being done but there may be other issues that need to be done during the procedure such as anchoring a superficial gluteal side to the deep side so that the skin doesn’t slide down over the space that’s created from the implant augmentation. I’ve seen patients whose bottom slides done with gravity with straightforward implant removal because the surgeon did not put in sutures to anchor or secure the skin side to the muscle side in the correct anatomic location.
