Here's a photo of another patient of his. I am having the same problem as far as how the outline looks. Not as much as hers & not as ripply but the exact same spots. So maybe his technice isnt the best fit on slim people?

I don't see an outline on your pictures. Just curious, did you have that woman's permission to use her pics? No shade, but I have been following her story and it seemed like it was a pretty unpleasant experience for her.

Thank you for your concern about my pic. It is ok with me.
I am sad that she had the same results.
I think his technique is not good for slim people, neither the chooise of high profile implants and placement.

Agree. I don't think you meant harm by making reference to another pt from the same doc. Also the pic you used is already posted on here so I don't see a privacy issue.

No she just need fat grafting to hips. On thin people the implant can sometimes show on the sides if there isn't enough fat near the hip area. And you're butt looks great I saw no implant outline in your pic's :)

I was really hoping after this surgery and paying so much I would completely love my results. As far as the implants go they were successful.. No issues or anything. But I'm not happy with the appearance. They look ok from certain angles, but I feel like NONE of the fat stayed to hide them. They are very visible just from how your muscles flex simply from walking. Or standing straight up pivoting from side to side. Simple movements cause the outline to show. In my quote originally it said stomach lipo, yet there was no lipo done on my stomach. My overall shape isn't the hourglass I was hoping for. Waist isn't much smaller. And the fat transfer to my hips has completely vanished. So I'm still up & down boxy. But with a pretty nice projection from the side. From the front tho. My hips are very hollow. Then it's outline of the implants. THEN a nice butt.. I will keep the implants but now I'm debating on another full body sculpt+Transfer. I atleast want curves with a smaller waist to give the illusion of hips and whatever fat I can get to fill around the implants. I'm not sure if I'll be sticking with gongora. Maybe the body sculpting part isn't his specialty. Of course a part of me feels safe with him and it's a do what you know type thing. But I don't Want to waste money to get the same results if what I desire just isn't what he's capable of... Idk I'll get another consult and get his opinion for a solution :/. I'm considering dr Duran or dr Miranda

The reasoning BBL isn't for most patients is because a good majority of the fat "melts" away again. Lip on the stomach is a contraindication with Butt Implants because most of the recovery time is done on the stomach which compresses the area where lip would be done which could lead to necrosis and further deterioration. BTW, I think your pics so far look great :)

I am sorry you are going trough this.
I believe the way our implants look like this is because the placement of the implants is more touch the side and in an angle.
If I flex or bend the pik of the protection is on the sides.
Implant is too heavy.
Lipo ruined my legs and did not stay on the butt.
Reading about it from Dr Stanton is because the fat needs to be inyected deep in the muscle and with implants in the same time is very risky, so I am assuming the fat transfer was superficial and that is why vanished .
Let me know if you find a solution, because I am over this implants and I wish they can be fix it. I think repositioned to a different angle will help, covering more of the center of the butt instead the sides.
My waist was always tiny and now I am boxy as we'll, no curvy, no slim, no hourglass.

I was considering Dr. Gongora also, but now I am not sure

I'm liking my results. Still a bit tinder from the Lipo mainly. Inscision isn't completely healed yet but coming along. I'm still cleaning it with antibacterial soap. I like the size but... I'd love it overall more if the implants had more fat around them ESP by the hips. Depending on certain angles they can be a bit visible.
