Butt Implants - Vienna, VA

I am a naturally thin girl, 5'7" about 120 lbs. I wanted to add some curves so decided to get the butt implants. Originally, I was supposed to get them done in Atlanta where I live with Dr. Jimerson, but not only did he raise his prices after being on TV but he is booked for the next year almost. I found Dr. Widder here on RealSelf and after spending a long time on here and on his website and blog, I scheduled a consultation with him. The consultation went very well all of the staff were very friendly. I scheduled my procedure for three weeks following my consultation. Dr. widder was very nice he even called me personally about a week after my consultation to walk me through the sizing as i was having some doubts. The morning of the procedure I had to get there very early 6am and everything seemed to go well. I was under general anesthesia so time flew by. When I woke up I was very cold to the point where I was in pain because I couldn't stop shivering, I guess this always happens but I was not told to bring socks, so bring socks!!! My husband came with my medication and we left to go to the hotel shortly after. I was given before surgery post-surgery instructions but I feel like some of this should have been reiterated after the surgery to my husband and it was not. Additionally, that night Dr. Widder was supposed to give me a call to check on me however i never received the call. the first day was not all that painful, (disclaimer: I have had a c section so in comparison to that this surgery was nothing), I went in the next day for a follow up visit and was told I needed to come in a week later for the drains to come out, however the older Caucasian lady said that for out of town patients they remove them the next day or so. This miscommunication within the office cost me an extra $400 as I had to rebook a plane ticket. So as far as my experience goes I think the staff is all very nice, I think there is some miscommunication and that the staff could do a better job ensuring you as a patient know everything you need to know. Now as far as the procedure goes, I think it looks great, very natural yet still the shape I wanted. I got the 565cc and was going back and forth about getting the 650cc however Dr. Wider advised against this so I listened. I wish it was a tad bit bigger but can't completely tell bc the bandages are still on. I tried to take a couple pictures and will answer questions as I wish there was more info available when I did it.

Okay on Tuesday I flew home, it wasn't bad uncomfortable but not unbearable. I know people do it the next day or two after surgery I think they are crazy I would be in so much pain! I'm a lot more mobile than I was before, don't take the pain meds but maybe once or twice a day now. It's more soreness like from a workout and discomfort than actual pain. Can't sit for more than 20 minutes though. The swelling has gone down a bit so now it looks smaller than I thought, but still 100 times better than before, my implants are hard and I'm hoping like most of the girls they loosen up in a month or so. I think that I still have projection and I fill out my clothes MUCH better so I love that. I thought it was going to be so big that I was going to need new pants but that's not the case. I think that if anyone wants that "stripper booty" or a true bubble butt you would have to get the round implant I also do not think the round would look good done subfascially which is what I have, but I'm also not down with a twice as long recovery and 5x more painful surgery so I'm good LOL. To be 100% it's not as big as I thought and I wish I would have gotten the 650 for a little more umph but who knows if there would have been complications. I will post another picture at one month when I stop wearing the compression garment.

I think i got pretty close to my goal picture (girl in black)...Okay pain is gone now its mostly discomfort. No sitting for a long time, walked the mall today and now I'm paying for it. Tried on new underwear for a boost and it did the trick :)...I can feel the implant which I am a little worried about if it will always be that way, aside from that I think I'm healing well. Next picture at 1 month when there's a difference...
