5'7, 132lbs, failed BBL. Is butt implant permanent? Which brand is reliable?

 In fact buttock implants are the only reliable dependable permanent way to surgically augment the buttock.  Unlike breast implants, silicone gel buttock implants are not FDA approved and thus not legal for buttock implantation in the USA. I actually see about one patient a month that had gel implants done in another country and, although they looked a felt great at first, they are now seeking revision because the implants are either visible on top of the muscle and/or grossly deformed by scar contracture or a ruptured implant. The soft semi-solid silicone rubber implants used in the USA are much less likely to have these problems if placed correctly within the gluteus muscle AND are considered permanent implants because they cannot rupture and leak silicone gel. In 2015 I created and recently patented a new "Stanton Anatomic" shaped implant that avoids the unnatural effects of round implants, whether silicone gel or rubber . The benefit of this is the fact that ~90% of patients have more of an oval shaped buttock cheek not round, thus a true oval implant (i.e. Stanton Anatomic implant) creates a much more natural and harmonious buttock contour.  This is especially true when the patients bends over, does squats, or pokes their butt out while striking a pose or dancing. Many avid weightlifters, competitors, and athletes have had these implants without problem of movement or drooping.  Glad to be of help.

Buttock implants are different than breast implants. I tend to use those from Implantech.  Assume the implants are not for a lifetime and may need to be changed out sometime in the future.

Hi, and thank you for the question
Based on the information  you send us, you could be a good candidate for buttocks implants. they are really safe, the size will not change and in my practice we use MOTIVA, a great brand. As you can understand studies and test are needed to see if you are clear for surgery but in general, if you seek the attention of a certified plastic surgeon, you should have a great result and a normal life. So feel free to contact us for further evaluation.   

Thank you again and have a great day
