I weigh 120 and would love to have ass SHOTS or implants. Which is better?

Thank you for your question as it will help many other young men and women considering #ButtockAugmentation.One should avoid the semi-permanent and permanent products such as PMMA and Silicone in the buttocks as the complications are too significant and serious, both short-term and long-term.Injectable silicone is illegal in many countries, including Canada, for very good reasons:  too many problems.Hyaluronic acid is being done in some countries (and again, should be done by a board-certified plastic surgeon as complications can be extremely serious as seen in Brazil several months ago).Fat grafting is an excellent option - the so-called #BrazilianButtLift - yet, at 120 lbs, you likely do not have enough fat to "give".  In my practice, I like to inject, after the harvesting, decanting and centrifuging about 800cc of 'healthy' fat per buttocks, which means I have to harvest about 2200-3000cc of total aspirate (aspirate includes healthy fat cells and stem cells, broken fat cells, oil, local anesthetics and blood).You best option is a round or pear-shaped #ButtockImplants and a sub-fascial intramuscular placement.  Great implants are made in both USA and Brazil.  If you have some fat to give, it could also be done along with the buttock implants procedure.But please, do not go for unscrupulous injectors who will inject illegal material in your soft tissues.  Find a board-certified plastic surgeon.  They are many good ones in Texas.Hope this helps.All the best,Dr Marc DuPere, Toronto plastic surgeon

Weighing 120 lbs, you probably don't have much fat to transfer, but maybe.  Implants are probably your best shot.  DON'T let anybody inject junk (silicone, oil, ect) into your trunk!  This is probably the #1 cause for complications with buttock enlargement around the world.

Thank you for your question.  At my practice I do neither shots nor implants and do not recommend either.  Instead, you should consider a Brazilian butt lift which uses your own fat to augment your buttocks.  Please see a board certified plastic surgeon to determine if you would benefit from this procedure.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

Your options about buttock augmentation should be discussed with a plastic surgeon after detailed evaluation. Providing that you have sufficient amount of fat to be harvested and used as augmentation "material" my suggestion would be fat grafting. It seems that implants available in USA and FDA approved have significantly higher complications then fat grafts. They should be used only for selected patients and by  surgeons with significant expertise in buttock implantsI suggest you to start with a consultation with a plastic surgeon with expertise in buttock augmentation. Good luck.

Being that you are only 120 pounds you may not have too much fat for us to transfer, so implants may be better to give you the results your looking for. Best of luck.

Thank you for your question. There are no legal
buttock injections in the United States. Board-certified plastic surgeons
perform autologous (your own) fat injections using liposuction, and then
inject, contour and sculpt your fat back into your buttocks. Any other form of
injection is dangerous and can lead to severe complications. I advise consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.

I sincerly hope that when you say "ass shots" you are referring to fat grafts (bbl) and not to any of those completely proven harmful materials like PMMA, hydrogel, liquid silicone,etc. I have a simple Surgery selection criteria for Buttocks augmentation,
Shape.
If you like the shape of your Buttocks, then
implants will always be the best, and more lasting solution.
If you want to reshape your buttocks, in my
hands Fat is the best option.
If you want to reshape and augment and you have
enough fat, then a BBL will be enough, but if you don't have enough fat, we
will use the fat available to reshape and Implants to augment.

If you need both procedures its always better to do it in separate
times, because if you need back liposuction, all the infusion that we use will
drain to the implant pocket and drastically increase the complication rate.I,
like a few other colleagues offer online consultations where you send us your
photos and we can estimate the cost. Find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and
discuss what will be the proper treatment to achieve the result you desires.

Regards,

Dr. Luis Redondo

What I recommend my patients is Fat Transfer to Buttocks. NO any other substance shots.I do not recommend to opt for Implants. In my experience all my patients with Buttocks Implants are always complaining of pain, no possibility of getting injections in the gluteous region, and displacement of the implants.In the long term they always decide to take them out, because they always bother them.

Hello. There are options for increasing the curve of your buttock area, including the implants or fat grafting. The fat transfer is popular because it is like you get a "two for one" with the liposuction.  The challenge is that many patients do not have enough fat to harvest to make a noticeable change in the buttock area.  IT sounds like you are very slender, so the amount of fat you have to move may be limited.  I would recommend discussing your goals with your plastic surgeon. Many of my patients decide to proceed with the fat transfer because they do not an implant.good luck.

This is the question that everyone has to answer when deciding about buttock augmentation/Brazillian Butt Lift.  The trend right now is fat grafting to the buttocks (injecting your own fat into your buttocks).  This is a great procedure and most patients are really happy.  You get new curves and a much slimmer waist.  The down side is that if you do not have a lot of fat to take then you don't get as much fullness as you might want.  You will likely get anew hourglass type curves though - which in turn can make your buttocks look more full (projected). Implants can be really nice looking - for awhile.  In too many people they end up causing a lot of problems like coming through the skin or causing major infections.  In the right person though they may be the perfect solution.  Good luck on your journey.
