Hi ladies
I'm writing to ask if anyone has any advice on butt implants recovery. Since I'm going to El Salvador I want to pack as much as possible. I'm going out of the country because the one I wanted to get my implants with told me that he no longer does implants and only fat transfers. However I just read a post from someone that had implants by Dr. Jimerson last month. :( I'm very disappointed because he's results look amazing but his secretary was the only one I spoke to during my consultation back in April and after laughing at me for being skinny said that they had been getting a lot of infections with their implants and recommend Fat transfers. Its impossible for me to gain weight. Also I was quoted $12000 for the lipo with transfer which is a little crazy since most pts here are claiming to pay under $10000. I feel like I was not taken seriously when I spoke to Dr. Jimersons staff but I guess it wasn't meant to be. So anyone have any advice for me on recovery post butt implants?

Crazy to think that the only negative part of this experience was my allergic reaction to Demerol. An unforeseen circumstance. After my pain was controlled everything else went smoothly. Dr.Flores-Lima maybe ill see you again in the future but for now thank you so much!!!

I have had lots of experience with plastic surgery. Ive done the fat transfer which looked amazing for about 4 months then mybody reabsorbed tbe fat. Dissapointed & $5000.gone. Did the butt implants. Worst pain ive ever been through. You need at least 6 weeks to recover. Sleeping, sitting is very difficult. I developed an infection, soon after. Doctor kept me on antibiotics & a drain in my butt for a year. Almost a year to the day, implants were removed. My butt looked disgusting. It sagged so bad it bounced off my thighs. A year later I went to Venezuela to have reconstruction surgery. Best doctor ever. Dr. Tomas Rosewick Fortoul. He was able to make my butt look like it had before implants. Will never have any more surgeries in the US. Doctors in South America are so far advanced. Bee

I got butt implants and I am fine now. It's been 6 weeks no infections, no seromas, not much pain. So every doctor is different I went to jimmerson and he is the best in USA for butt implants/ fat grafting !

Hello, you mentioned that you have a lot of experience with plastic surgery. So I have been reading reviews both on butt implants and Bbl. I see that there may be a lot complications with butt implant and also with BBL the fat doesn't last. My question to you after BBL, do you noticed any lumps or unevenness when they transfer fat to buttocks. Many plastic surgeon say no to this question but of course they want the money and will say anything. Butt implant is completely out of the question. Complications may develop years after surgery, my friend did it and she was ok until couple yrs down the road she started to develop infection and pain in the area.
