I recently paid in full for butt implant surgery in Colombia with American board-certified surgeon Who is very skilled at this procedure. I recently saw on real self that a patient of his had gotten breast implants and butt implants at the same time. I emailed him asking him about the recovery because I thought you cannot lay on your back during recovery from but implants, but he responded by telling me that you can lay on your back immediately after butt implant surgery. Is this actually OK?
Answer: Combination of surgeries Dear maid4chris,Some plastic surgeons may want to split this into two operations depending on the time needed. Its best to see a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine your options and whether it would take too long, more than 4 hours, to do all.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Breast implants with buttock implants in Colombia...? More importantly you should confirm that your Colombian surgeon is: 1) placing the buttock implants into the intramuscular tissue plane, not “subfascial” or otherwise (confirm this with his other patients), 2) he is not just offering you round implants which tend to have a less natural contour, especially when bending over and squating down, 3) if he is using silicone gel implants, make sure they are not just breast implants and be aware of the high rupture risks and deformation risks of silicone gel implants vs soft silicone rubber form stable implants, and 4) make sure he is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery not just any American board of surgery. Keep in mind also that just because one is “American Board Certified”, does not mean they are good technicians at the operating table. Plenty of them right here in the USA regularly perform buttock implants incorrectly and/or suboptimally. Glad to be of help.

Answer: Butt Implants Dear Maid4chris,Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Some surgeons will place breast and buttock implants at the same time. It is really up to the discretion of your surgeon. It is best to answer your question during a face-to-face evaluation, when you can discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure, and you can have a physical examination to evaluate for that procedure. It is essential that you have an in-person consultation to develop a treatment plan that specifically addresses your personal surgical goals, and your body’s anatomy. I recommend that you find a board-certified, or board-eligible plastic surgeon with whom you are comfortable. Be sure to have all of your questions answered during a face-to-face meeting with your surgeon, and review before and after pictures of similar patients whom have had this procedure. If you have any questions, call our office for assistance. Good luck!
