Hi I am looking to get butt implants due to 2 previous BBLs and lost most of my protection. I'm hoping to go pretty large at least 450-500cc to achieve a permanent bubble butt look with more projection to my hips as well. Not sure if under or intramuscular is better..? Any advice will be appreciated

Hey! I've also had a BBL, lost almost all of my projection and am scheduled to have butt implants with Dr. Stanton on June 8th. I had a consult with him and he said he can probably fit 600 cc intramuscularlly. Did you already have a consult?
April 29, 2015
Not yet i have a phone consult on monday cause i live in tx. Did u see him in his office? Do u think intramuscular is better? What shape?
April 29, 2015
What did he quote for 600cc?
April 30, 2015
Yes, I saw him in his office. I think intramuscular is better (and so do he) because the implant is less visible, palpable, and doesn't sag over time. I'm going with round.

O ok thats great. Does he have to special order the 600? Ty so much for replying. Im pretty nervous but excited also..
May 2, 2015
I believe he has some at his office. You can call to double check though.

Who were your previous bbl surgeons? Now am no longer sure of bbl, am looking into butt lift/a little fat tranfer to the hips since I already have a thick thigh to Support it. I've always seen bbl as a permanent procedure but now am not so convinced . Pls do keep us posted.
May 4, 2015
Dr bill johnson from dallas. He did a good job but told me it would be permanent after 6 months. Its been 1yr 3 months and most of my fat is gone. Very disappointed.. i did two rounds and paid about $12000. So thats why im going with implants because I know it will be permanent. Just sucks i have ro pay more and go through another surgery. :-( my opinion bbl is a waste!

Thanks a lot because we've got so much good reviews on bbl and a few bad review. Am not going to spend my time/money/pains for nothing. Good luck as you embark on the butt implants procedure.
May 12, 2015
Totally agree. Bbl is a waste. Stanton will tell u that as well. My gf had a bbl and she looks flatter than she started. The fat melted away so de she works out so much.
July 13, 2015
Did your fat shrink alot after 6 months, or did the fat transfer shrink after 6 months post op? I want bbl but reading this made me rethink.
May 12, 2015
Who did your previous Bbl s ? Marisarose4@yahoo.com please I want to choose the right dr ! Thank you

Please don't do implants. It's not like a boob lift. It is absolutely uncomfortable to ever sit properly, do sit ups, etc again and the texture is unnaturally hard to the touch. Those who I know who have done it have removed them like I did.
September 2, 2015
I meant not like Brest implants.
September 2, 2015
But she has already had it done and shes happy with her results. I think it can be good and look natural if you chose an experienced dr like mr stanton aka the butt king :)

Exactly even most of the doctors recommend implant as a everlasting and projection wise and for volume is the best and especially great for people like myself with no fat at all, I am very small lean petit Atlantic body round butt and waist line but no hips at all. And I have just had implants in my butt here in uk and I tell what it only been 6 days and I am feeling great looks stunning and a more hips, when placed within the muscle is more painful but is the best! Oh forgot to say no drains! The best any questions are welcome,

I had phone consult with Dr Stanton today and looking at my pictures he suggested 550cc oval under muscle. Im not sure what to think about the oval d/t possible shifting.. I told him i preferred round. He said he can't say for sure until he sees me in person :-( but I live in tx so I won't be able to see him till day of surgery.. stressed don't know what to do. Help!

Hi. I'm 6months post op and dr Stanton did my revision. My original implants (done by another dr) were round which gave me the projection however the bottom of the butt looks totally deflated. It looked horrible. So I went to dr stanton and chose the oval for a couple reasons, 1) made the entire butt look full and natural. 2) looking big and natural was really important to me. I achieved this with the oval. However, if u are totally active, snowboard, workout with heavy weights, yoga (sitting on ur butt) , I would recommend the round for sure. I'm 42 and no longer as active. My workouts are light weight but is mostly dance so no real chance of shifting. Avoid sitting down as much as u can for at least 6 months. I am finally about to workout and sleep on my side. This is a surgery u don't want to chance and u want to heal properly. U will start to feel good at 2 or 3 months but do NOT workout. The bouncing and sitting will aggravate the healing. 6 months of no working out. Light walking/Hiking is ok. The best advice that I can give u is to stay at least 2 weeks in LA. When u use the bathroom, sit down facing the toilet. It works! There is no way u can sit down regularly on the toilet for at least a month. When in a car, lay on ur stomach in the back seat. Any uber driver will open and shut the door for u. Flying immediately is one of the worst things u can do. It's utter pain. And if u have drain bags, u def don't want to go thru security with them. Embarrassing! I hope that helped! Remember active = Round. Semi active = oval

Omg ty so much... i definitely want a big natural looking butt.. that makes me feel so much better. What size did u go with? And what position?
May 6, 2015
I went under the muscle (which is a must) and the oval implants are the ones that are made for the left cheek/right cheek. There is a name for those but can't remember. I want to say I am 422cc maybe. Somewhere in that range but I am petite. 5'1 now 119 lbs. I do have the natural hourglass shape already with thick thighs but these implants def enhanced that in a good way. Also, best jeans to buy are Joe's Jeans Curvy fit. : )
May 6, 2015
And if u workout , no need to do crazy butt workouts. Now I focus on my hamstrings so lots of deadlifts, leg curls, light squats and lunges with no weights.
May 6, 2015
Hi, Missnewbooty72, your post above are so informative. It's just what i want to know. It helps a lot. Thank you so much. I'm currently debating whether i should get round or oval. After Dr Stanton measured me, He said that the oval will fit me the best. If i choose oval, result will be 10 out of 10 due to the shape of my butt. But if i go with round implant, i could only get 9 out of 10 result. I consider round because I'm afraid of rotation occurring to me. I do workout, but most of workout is cardio, very light weight lift, like dumb bell, bar bell. Most of my workout is dancing. I want a nice looking butt for sure. :) . So based on yr experience, do you think i should go with oval instead of round? Please advise. Thank you in advance.
May 6, 2015
Hi again, Missnewbooty72, you said that yr implant is placed under the muscular which is must, why ? why not intramuscular Which is said the best position? Thank you very much.
May 7, 2015
Ur activities don't seem like they would be strenuous on ur butt. I would go with oval. But with that said, ur recovery/healing process needs more time so 6 months to let the butt do its thing with the implant. Meaning heal around the implant. I can't stress that enough. U will feel great 2 months out but u are NOT healed. More possibilities to rotate so don't chance it! Ur routine sounds like mine so u will be fine after 6months to slowly work out again. I swear round looks so fake cause the bottom is totally deflated looking but the top sticks out far. Not a good look. U will be happy of the overall fullness of the oval. So excited for u! And seriously, remember to sit facing the toilet! : ) keep me posted and I'm here to answer anything about the healing process. First week is rough. Day 2-8 is pretty uncomfortable.
May 7, 2015
Honestly I didn't know there was a diff. Lol All I know is DO NOT place is on top of the muscle. U can see the outline and the fat isn't always the same on both cheeks so it looks distorted! Terrible! But I'll have to check to see how mine were placed. But whatever the standard is for dr Stanton is what he did. ill check!
May 7, 2015
Just checked with Mindy and my implants are intramuscular! : )
May 7, 2015
MissNewBooty72 Thank so much for ur info. I have surgery with Stanton in June & he strongly suggested I go with oval. I've kinda been freaking out bc most girls seem to go with round (I've been stressing about the oval). You cleared things up for me as I do not want deflated bottom cheeks (I lack fat in that area). When all said and done, even with the difficult recovery....are you happy you went through with this surgery? Are the results worth it?
May 7, 2015
I am 110% sooooo happy I did this. Even tho u had to go thru it twice. My only regret was not going to Stanton first. Totally worth it. Just make sure it's done right because u only want to go thru this once! Just sleep and rest the first two weeks. The emotionally trying part is not being able to workout or anything for 6months but that's just a mental thing. Best money spent. I feel and look amazing and so will you!!
May 7, 2015
* I had to go thru this twice!
May 8, 2015
Thank you so much MissNewZbooty72, for yr advice. I think i will go with Oval because i don't want deflated bottom. Actually, that's one of my concern. My bottom is bit loose, i asked dr Stanton on the phone consultation whether the implant can fill up the bottom, He said that implant is like blow a bloom. Yr butt will pop up. So the bottom will be fuller. Then during consultation in person, i raised same question, he said bottom will improve, but it won't completely go away. Oval shape will improve more. Also he said Oval is better for longer butt. It fit more. I will ask him for oval. Thanks again.
May 8, 2015
MissNewBooty72, Would you like to share some of yr pics? Really want to see yr beautiful butt :-)
May 8, 2015
I wouldn't worry about that. It will def help shape it correctly. Plus light lunges and light squats can still help that. But these oval gave me an overall fullness. Top. Sides. Bottom plus I had stretch marks on my booty and now I don't because now my butt is fuller. : ) as for pics. Hmmmmm I'm not as tech savvy but let me see what I can do this weekend.

Thanks for reply.

Anyway you can help me and upload Pics @missnewbooty72 I am torn he's suggesting oval but I want round for projection
May 7, 2015
I have rounds and i like it. Only thing is that i am Too small and need hips :( but not enough fat and i am afraid of doing butt shots for filling the sides.. Keep us post it and besf luck.
August 21, 2015
Hi what are butt shots?
August 21, 2015
Butt shots are injection illegal stuff such as silicone on ur butt. They can cause damage and serveral girls have died of this and some got away luckly but the future side affects are unknown. Some dr says that these will cause long term problem, so even if u get "lucky" u can get problems later in life.
August 21, 2015
Injecting* illlegal stuff...sorry for my typo
August 21, 2015
Thx for that piece of information my dear, I will stay v far away from that
August 21, 2015
Np dear, yes its best to stay far away from such illegal shots, its not worth risking your life
May 7, 2015
Hi MissNewBooty72 ty so much for all the info. Do u have any pics to share?

Oh they are there now! Maybe my phone hadn't updated earlier. Wow ur bum looks GREAT!!! Makes me very excited for my surgery. If I can get anywhere near your results I will be thrilled!!
May 13, 2015
I read your posts. I'm also getting 425 oval. I think I made the right choice after seeing your pics! Thank you for sharing. Very helpful.
May 13, 2015
U look great!! Ty so much for posting. I booked my surgery for 6/25 :-)
May 13, 2015
Oh giiiiiirl. I'm so excited for u. Another thing is to buy one of those sweatshirts that are like dresses with a zipper. I got mine at H&M. It's like a tunic sweatshirt. U will be wearing that for the first week because putting on pants is difficult. Plus it has pockets to carry the drains.
May 13, 2015
U bet! : ) I'm here anytime if u have questions before/after surgery.
May 13, 2015
You will. Dr Stanton is amazing and the oval off center are the best for overall fullness!
May 8, 2015
Do round
May 12, 2015
He is the best ! Don't worry

Ty... so much:-) how long did it take for your swelling to go down? Has it soften yet?
User Avatar
June 28, 2015
I would say about 4-5 weeks unless it's mental lol, they're softening daily. :)
June 28, 2015
They look amazing!!!! I'm 7months post op and def so much softer. I was able to finally start working out too without any tugging, pulling or pushing. Take it easy for awhile. Let the muscle heal completely around the implant. This is a surgery u only want to go thru once!
