How much width can hip implants usually add?

Dear southernbird90,
I guess that this will depend on the size of your implants and you anatomy. However, if you have extra fat on other body areas, then fat transfer might be a better option. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well. based in your question is difficult evalutate your case without picture , is recommended to get a consultation on personal and discuss all about the case and give you exactly price.

As a general rule and in my experience custom hip implants should be kept 3cm or less in maximum projection (thickness) to lessen the risks of complications. And like most complications that involve many implants in the body, complications usually end up in their removal.

if  increased volume is added using implants  then at some point the volume will look like implants.  Probably better to keep things balanced and in perspective. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
