hello everyone, ive been wanting to post a review since having my surgery. I first wanted to say to all the people looking to get some kind of cosmetic surgery, DO YOUR RESEARCH..!... So i had been really wanting to get my butt and breasts done. i decided to go with butt implants first. i have been in the gym lifting heavy for a couple years now. mainly lower body, (butt,thighs,legs). i had come a long way with it all the way around, but i felt that i wasnt getting any more size and projection with my butt, so i went ahead with the search for the right butt procedure, by the right doctor. The Search... i thought alot about bbl, brazilian butt lift. However i dont have that much fat, and i read so many girls reviews that were unhappy with the results a year or so down the road because the fat had melted away or there size had gone back to almost the original size. after careful consideration i figured with my active lifestyle working out a couple times a week, and my job as a mail carrier (walking 10-15 miles a day), i decided that implants was the way to go for me. I came across Dr. Grawe in Ohio. through our 2 visits she was very pleasant all while being thorough in her consultations. there is alot of information and details being covered in a short time. So thats why i recommend to take your time do your research to really figure out what you think is best for you. Her staff were also very helpful. Decisions..... After deciding on the doctor an choosing to do implants, i had even tougher decisions, i went back and forth with Size and Shape... i seen a review on here of a girl that got 800cc ovals and we were similar in physique. her butt looked soo good. but i read a handful of girls horror stories about the ovals rotating and shifting. i seen a few doctors opinions about round vs. ovals and what i took from there perspective was that an oval implant suites most women's behind slightly better than round. But there is also a bit more increased risk in future complications such as shifting and rotating with the oval. that being said i decided to go with the round... It was even harder to choose a size.. I was going back and forth between the 548 an the 712cc round implant. after actually feeling the implants in my hands for a second time. i thought, even though i wanted to go big, i felt the 712 implant was just too big for me. the doctor even said the larger the implant, the larger the risk of complications. i wanted to go under the muscle as well, that was very important to me. I went with the 548cc round.. Dr. Grawe and her staff were awesome throughout the whole experience along with the hospital and surgical staff. they were attentive and helpful, pushing for a healthy recovery. At Home healing... It was a rough first few days to a week. Pain along with getting up, an especially going to the bathroom. i took stool softener regularly and even some Miralax powder mix a digestive assist. i Strongly recommend you get some and take it regularly along with your other medications. Moving into my second week things have been easier moving around and doing things on my own. i sorta forgot to mention, that for the first week my boyfriend had been helping me with everything, making things alot easier than without thats forsure. the pain has been getting less and less aswell. not much else to report. i have my 2 wk. follow up appointment later this week. hopefully getting my drains removed. I'll update after that appointment, an then probably once every month after that... i hope some of this information here helps you in one way or another. More updates coming soon...

Hi, the pics look amazing, but you allready looked great before. Did she make 2 incisions or just 1 to insert the implant. Ive noticed some Drs do 2 when originally I thought there was only 1 incision. Can you or your BF feel or see them if you bend over?
User Avatar
April 6, 2016
hey there.. she did 2 incisions. 1 for each cheek. as far as bending over and seeing the implant, i cant quite fully bend over yet lol but no, the implant isnt visible from what we can see. the doctor said i have a nice bit of fat tissue already so that really helps. also she said my muscle was really good too, i guess all those squats and deadlifts paid off lol. she was able to get the implant under the muscle good apparently from what she said.

I am thinking get butt implant but I am really scare because there bad stories happen to people. And plus it cost a lot. I live in CA I don't know who to go

well i heard that Stanton is really good, but he usually wont go as big as you would like, and he wont transfer fat at the same time either. which may be needed to give you the best results. i would seriously consider going to Dr. Grawe in Ohio. its a distance but well worth it.

Yea that is true u don't pick ur size with Stanton I had mine done by him and he goes by ur measurements but as to why he doesn't put any size makes sense. He said if u have smaller measurements and he stuffs the biggest size implant under ur butt muscle they will more than likely make the incision reopen and cause infection. (Which makes sense because many women on her have his happen to them because they get too big of an implant) and I also tried to have fat transfer done at the same time which he doesn't do for the same reason. He said after making a pocket to sit the implant in he needs it to be healed but if he puts fat into that same area it can cause infection. This is why he doesn't do it which I would say is a good thing cuz I've never heard of any of his patients having any incisions open back up after surgery or getting an infection.

Looks amazing! Are you still not able to sit? Do the implants feel fake or does it just feel l like you are super fit. Your dr did amazing work even though you looked great to begin with :)

April 28, 2016
thanks babe! im able to sit now, it becomes more and more comfortable. it is also starting to soften up an feel like a nice soft butt lol. from what the DR. has told me along with what ive read, apparently it takes a few months for the implants to settle and for the muscle to relax and soften up. it definetly keeps on getting better and better tho. the surgery is totally worth the few weeks of mild pain and being uncomfortable. are you planning on getting it done ?
April 29, 2016
Can you feel the implants while doing normal routines. How comfortable are they.is it lije having breast implants.
User Avatar
April 29, 2016
well i dont have breast implants yet so im not sure how they feel. but i do feel the implants in my butt when im doing normal stuff. its still pretty early into my recovery, so i havent gotten totally used to them being in there yet. its getting better and more comfortable each day though
June 7, 2016
I'm curious why you say do your research etc like are you unhappy with who you chose ? I think you look great and I think u were perfect before but that's women were nvr happy lol can u see implant when you bend over? N what did ur bf think mine tells me not to but I know he'll love it
User Avatar
June 8, 2016
no im very happy with the doctor, and my results. i had said do your research because i hear of so many girls just going to any plastic surgeon that my not have much experience if any. resulting in being botched or not so good results at the least. i say all of that to say make sure you understand what it is that you really want and know who is doing it.
June 8, 2016
Ok I was curious I just read it wrong n yes it's a huge surgery I'm confused on who to go to I've heard many good thgs about your dr but I'm really considering dr.meija in columbia but best of luck do u feel normal now ? I'm so jealous lol

Hello again everyone. Giving you guys a 2 week update about what's been going on since my surgery... Earlier this week around day 9 or 10, my boyfriend noticed my incision was opening at the bottom on one side. We contacted Dr.Grawe on the emergency line and emailed her some photos. She suggested to come in tomorrow the next day,as soon as we could. We left the next day on Monday. She decided it needed to be re-stiched on the part that was open. It was cleaned thoroughly an re-stitched. She said other than the small opening it looked really good. No sign of infection in the opening was just superficial. They also sent me home with a couple more prescriptions one for a stronger antibiotic just in case. And the other for pain medication. The days following I was a bit sore and just rested for the most part. The incision has been healing up nicely since then, I think it's just about all the way healed crossing my fingers still taking it easy until my next appointment. Unfortunately I still have my drains in. I go to see the doctor again later this week on Thursday the 14th. Hopefully they're ready to be removed by then... Here's some more pics. The swelling has gone down quite a bit. Its looking good. The pictures dont really capture the size of how it actually looks. Definitely looks bigger in person. :)

I'll be there on the 14th too getting my drains out!
April 12, 2016
Same thing happened to me and it looks like right on the same part of my incision. She didn't re-stitch mine she just told me to put neosporin and a gauze pad and change it twice a day, after about a week I could tell it was already closing up and now it's all closed up. The other thing I read about and it really helped was taking a lot of protein I went to Walmart and bought protein cookies and bars I was just really trying to take all the protein I could and I think that was also very helpful.
