Update
Honestly I think and my experience about the visible outline of your implants, is in relation about your own perception and about your thoughs. You need to be realistic and have real expectations, again you need to evaluate how you look better even with the outline, before or after your surgery. For me you look great even with the outline; this is a very difficult surgery, you have invested considerable effort in getting the implants so it would seem reasonable to attempt to try wait the advise time.
Just like implants anywhere in the body (breast implants, hips implants, arms implants, legs implants, etc.) your implants will look and feel more natural over time (6 months after surgery), after they have settled in; then over time your body and mind will accommodate it as its own just like breast implants, cheeks implants, nose implants, etc.
If you don’t have enought fat under your skin, and your muscles are thin in your butt área, then when you bent over you will see the outline of your bones, the same is for the face, people who have cheek implants, breast implants if they loss to much weight you will see the outline of the cheek implants and the outline of the orbital bone , nose bone, jaw bone, etc. Is the same for the arms and legs. Then i advise to gain a few Lbs. to camouflage the implant outline when you bend over.
If you look at your breast implants when you bent over you wil see the outline of your breast implants, if you squezze them you will see the outline too.
The process of healing for buttocks implant procedure requires the formation of a scar tissue around the implants. This will keep the implant from moving. This process starts at one week and is maximal at six weeks. After that, the palpability and the outline will decrease, but it takes four to six months for the implants to be incorporated in the body image where patient will forget about them. Overall palpability and the outline is directly related to the amount of fat present.
Please I need to see your pictures standing up, sitting, bending down different views: front, side (left and right), oblique and posterior views to evaluate you.
Best Regards,

Provider Review
So far, I have been really extremely impressed with Dr. Cerpa. He answers every question that I have and is very attentive. He's also very nice and easy to talk to. He seems to really care about his patients and their outcomes. I had read some bad reviews on him (which, quite frankly, scared the piss out of me) that almost made me change my mind several times about choosing him as my surgeon. I'm SO, SO glad that I decided to make my own judgement on him! He's gone over and above what I expected of him several times over. Hopefully it will let me update this section so I can cover the whole 2 week interaction with him. Day 12: I think Dr. Cerpa is one of the most knowledgeable doctors I've ever been to. I really think he is a very skilled surgeon.
