48 yr old getting ready to have Butt implants by Dr.Shifrin or Dr. Stanton. I have a consultation with Dr. Shifrin on June, 3rd 2019 and can’t wait. Any and all advice is much appreciated! I have done my research and feel that both these Dr’s are highly qualified.

I am also looking at those two doctors mainly. I may go with Stanton as the other charges out of towners for virtual consults

Dr.Shifrin doesn't charge and also does virtual consults. Just wanted to put that out there for anyone reading the comments.

Is this new? I solely to his office in the summer and was told that they charge $100 for virtual consultations but free for in person. I didn’t do it because of that. I fly to Chicago often so I was interested.

I'm not sure about the cost of the virtual consultation, but sometimes if you click on the Dr profile page they have coupons that give you a free consultation.

I highly recommend Dr. Stanton. I had my procedure August 2018 & I couldn’t be happier with the results that Dr. Stanton gave me. He’s amazing!!!!

Well I have 39 days left until my surgery and getting so excited! I pray that everything goes well. Looking forward to meeting the 2 women I met on here that are also having surgery a week later! I have to admit I read waaaaay too many reviews on this site. Haha.

I will! I plan on giving a thorough review and keep giving updates afterwards. So many drop off after surgery and you don't hear about longterm results.
November 3, 2019
Yes so true. I keep pushing back the butt implant lbs because I’m afraid of the recovery. Especially after miserable breast implants recovery I’m currently having. However I think I may do it in January or February and I’m leaning towards Sweden but I’m in Chicago a lot too and it’s a closer plane ride. Does he only use the hard implants too? How do yours feel?

They're semi-solid and feel heavy, but soft (the actual implant) I haven't had surgery yet to say how they feel inside me.
November 3, 2019
Oh ok. I confused you with the other poster. Best of luck. I look forward to your updates.

Thanks! Did you get Butt implants? Would love to see your before/after pics
November 13, 2019
No. I got the bbl. I am thinking I should have gotten implants from the start. I will be going back soon to have the bbl done again.
November 18, 2019
Did you decide on implants because you don't have enough fat to harvest? I'm still not convinced on implants as they seem so heavy...
User Avatar
November 24, 2019
No, I decided on implants because I was worried I'd end up losing all the grafted fat and end up with implants thousands of dollars later.

Well I’m sad to announce that my 12/10/19 surgery was canceled, I’m hoping my Dr. gets better and will be able to schedule me for January. I’ll keep everyone updated.

Yeah if I wasn't able to have it at the end of January I would've had to wait until next Dec, to have it done, because of needing recovery time.

Yeah butt implants, Lipo and fat transfer is a long painful recovery and being 49 doesn't help. Lol
