Question

hello, I want to get butt implants, and measured with a hard ruler the diameter of my butt cheek its 6inch. What max size implant could my butt hold? And do they do saline butt implants? Thank you.

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, MDLos Angeles, CA

It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape implant you will require to best match your ideal butt image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the existing base width of your buttock will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. Liposuction of your lower back and fat transfer is also helpful as an adjunct to implants. Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon.

One of the most important factors in creating the perfect derriere with implants is indeed selecting the right size AND shape. I have found the best way to assure this is to simply measure the actual dimensions of the patients buttock cheeks. With these anatomical measurements, I can select an implant that not only significantly augments the buttock but also supplies the correct 3-dimensional enhancement to look as real as possible. Therefore the only way for you to know what implant works best is to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon specializing in this procedure and have him/her take your measurements before selecting an implant and proceeding with surgery.

Dear finewinebooty,

	     Butt implants come in different shapes - round, oval round and oval bubble, and different sizes - 190cc - 690cc. They can be made larger as a custom made. My prefered shape is 'oval round'. The most common size in my practice is 565cc. The length of the implant is 17cm and the width is 13cm. Since your diameter is 6 inches - 15cm, that implant will fit you, but obviously, you can choose your desired size. The implants are solid and made of very soft silicone.They feel and look natural. I place them in the sub-fascial plane, on top of the muscle. This plane is less painfull , has less complications and the implants can be larger than the sub-muscular or intra-muscular plane. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who has lots of experience with the procedure.

	               Best of luck,

	                                     Dr Widder
