Butt Implants With a Little Lipo to Flanks and Fat Transfer to Hips

So these things have really settled in now! They are really starting to feel like they are a part of me...like they belong and I'm used to them. I still have no regrets and wouldn't go back. I love being able to wear jeans, yoga pants, and bathing suits and feel like I don't have a flat butt anymore. Honestly, this is probably what my butt looked like when I was 20 and working out hard all the time, but over the years it just went flat! I still like to workout, and I have no problems working out with the implants, There are only a few adjustments I make on some of the exercises in my workouts. If I do ab work, it is mostly plank and paper plate exercises (*See 80 day Obsession if you don't know what I"m talking about). I don't do full sit ups where I roll from a flat to upright position. I modify with a bicycle and exercise with knee to elbow, and that works just fine to target the muscles I need to target. I do pretty much everything else.... squats, lunges, plyometric jumps...no running though. I"m just not into running. My cardio workouts involve mostly exercises that I can do in my living room.
Anyways, the implants have dropped into a good position. I think they look great from the side view. Once again, I went with round, maybe 310 CC's. I don't have a huge butt, just a normal, not flat butt. My husband has no complaints. I'm satisfied, but I only wish some of my fat transfer would have stuck. I feel like the little fat we were able to get from my flanks (only like 100 cc's) which he put on my hips around the implant, is all gone now. I honestly can't tell that any of it stuck. It might work for other people, but that part didn't work for me. I'm not going to worry about it though. The implants are in a good position, and they're doing what I wanted them to do! Would I like to have more fat around them to smooth out the edges a little? Yes. Am I going to do anything about that? No. You can only see the implant lines if I bend over, or if you're looking at it from the side while I'm bent over. And the only person seeing that is my husband while having sex with me, and he's not worried about it! So for everything else...me in a bathing suit, me wearing jeans, me wearing a cute mini skirt...my butt looks great in all those situations. And that was my purpose for having this surgery anyways. Now, if you're wondering, can your partner feel the implant there? Yes. In certain positions more than others. But in most positions he'd much rather have them there than not! They're not as squishy as breast implants...they're much more firm, but when he's pounding you from the back, he doesn't care if they're firm! He's glad it's round and not flat! So mission accomplished! Thank you Dr. Heistein! He did a fabulous job, and I'm thankful that I had zero complications and healed up quickly and perfectly.

I'm absolutely loving my results!!! Implants have dropped to the perfect spot. I stopped wearing my tight garment about 4 was ago. Everything is perfect. Not big, but the perfect size for my body. I went from flat to perky. I look great in yoga pants now! And I can finally wear my pencil skirts that used to look good on me years and year ago when I actually had somewhat of a butt!
I work out just fine. Did legs and booty the other day and it felt great. I sleep on my side mostly, but every once in a while I will catch myself on my back. I can always find a comfortable position to lounge in to watch tv, but it's a little different than before. I think I kind of lean to the side a little bit to find a comfortable position. I have a little bit of a numb spot around the incision area but that comes with the territory.I have no complaints though. For me it is totally worth it. No regrets.No complaints from my husband either! I would definitely do it all over again!

Girl u look great!!! Question....i just got my implants a week ago. One seems to be sitting high. This happened to u? How long did it take for them to drop?
August 10, 2018
Yes mine were high for a while too. I had to wear my compression garment for the longest time to lift up the bottom part of my butt in order to look good in yoga pants or anything tight. But somewhere around the 8 to 10 week mark it started looking really good all by itself with no compression garment.

Everything is great! Scar is healing up nicely (using Scar Away silicone strips now) and the muscles are stretching out nicely. Implants have dropped quite a bit. 310 round intramuscular. No more flat butt and no more butt pads! I have a nice curve in all of my clothes and bathing suits. Looks very natural. No one could guess they were there if i didn't tell them.

You look fabulous! I have been following your posts since the 1st one and you progressed wonderfully.I am 5'6' and 129 lbs so quite slim myself but mostly muscular.Your results are pretty much what I am aiming to achieve( according to the Dr.I spoke with...).
May I ask you when you start/ will start driving again and/ or working out again?Thank you!
June 30, 2018
Thank you! I started driving on day 16 with a very short drive. I did great. I did several short local drives before my 3 week check up which was 30 minutes away. Did great with that too. Then at 22 days i flew from Dallas to Pittsburgh with a 4 hour drive to Lake Erie, and had no problems with that amount of time seated. I just used 2 rolled up towels under my legs and 2 on my lower back. I kind of stuffed them in this pouch thing i had to keep them together. It works perfectly and makes driving very comfortable. I've been busy lately with the kids and summer activities so i haven't started working out yet, which i totally should be doing something, even it's just upper body or plank stuff. I think I'll start back on Monday and see what my body can handle. I feel really good and feel like i could handle most exercise in my 80 day obsession workouts on the Beach Body app. I'll just not use the dumbbells until i feel ready for it. I'll post an update on how it goes!

Very well...! Thank you again for the detailed description.I'll keep following your progress....
