Buttock Implant Removal Well Worth It

WORTH IT$3,877
This guy, is absolutely amazing! He made me feel extremely comfortable and worry free! After having buttock implants, for 11yrs. I went to Dr. Barcelo for implant removal! They were painful, hard, and outdated! I was full of anxiety and stressful regarding my procedure. However, he and his wonderful staff made me feel so relaxed, satisfied all of my concerns and answered all of my questions. My surgery was a success and I woke up feeling great! I highly recommend Dr Barcelo and his professional team and wonderful staff! I couldn’t be happier!!! Looking forward to having my BBL in the next 6mos!!!!

It went great! I chose Dr. Carlos Barcelo, in Dallas, Tx! And it went beyond great! I’m I’m 2wks post op and have a little bit of indentation, but It’s looking like it’s going to turn out alright. I’m planning on getting lipo 360 in Miami within the next 6-7mos and I couldn’t be more happier! Don’t be afraid of the outcome, you have options once they are removed!

I'm getting mines removed july 1st after having them for almost 8 years and I'm terrified on how my butt is going up look. How did your butt turn out after the removal? I don't even wanna look at mines when I get it removed

I'm going with Dr. Franco in Austin, TX. He seems to think that I'm not going to have saggy skin but told me to wait at least 6 months for it to heal and go from there. I went with the largest size implants and it's been almost 8 years so I think im going to have a saggy butt

It has a little indentation, but I’m only 2wks po. I’m not worried about it, because I’m having lipo-360 and bbl and I’m super excited! I’m wearing a faja and it’s giving my butt a lift, which makes it seems as if I have a little something back there! I will keep you posted and let you know when the dents pop out!

I thought the same, but again all I have right now is a little indentation and it seems like it’s getting better, only 2wks po and I’m happier than ever! You have options once they are removed! I’m getting 360 lipo with bbl

Yes please keep me updated! Dr. Franco is charging me 4,995 to remove mines. I think i can deal with a little indentation. I just keep imagining this droopy butt after removal lol! Do you know who you're going to for the BBL?

And you’re going to be just fine! I was afraid of that also. But every thing is looking good so far! And until I get my BBL I am wearing butt pads.

I am removing mine too in the next couple months , but thinking of having a bbl at the same time ! I don’t know if it will be worth it

I don't think you can get a removal and BBL at the same time. From what the doctors been telling me, its recommended to wait 3 to 6 months. That's why I was so indecisive about getting the Removal because I didn't want to walk around with a saggy butt that long and having people questioning it but I'm tired of this discomfort and pain so out they'll go

I'm still searching for a doctor. I am scared as well. I am worried about deformities and loose skin afterward.

I'm in Texas. Do you have before and after pics you could share? I got standard size pit in 2 years ago so the skin is really stretched. But thank you for your update. It sounds like you chose well and have it all planned out well too.

I haven’t taken any after pictures. Dr. Suggested that I wear really tight jeans, to reshape my butt!

Do you have to wear drains? And did the doctor leave some of the capsule in or remove them?

I wore the drains for 4days. And implants were completely removed! Just waiting for them to return to normal, it feels like they are getting better, everyday I’m seeing improvement!
