Who is a candidate for butt implants?

Most adults are candidates for butt augmentation, but it's important to undergo an assessment first. Dr. Morales will examine your medical history and make sure you are healthy enough for silicone implants. We also do a thorough evaluation to assess your physical characteristics and ask about your goals.

Patients mainly want surgery because they don't like the shape of their buttocks. Other reasons include volume loss and asymmetry due to natural age. If you fall into these categories, cosmetic surgery may be a good option for you. Candidates for butt augmentation at Morales Plastic Surgery:

• Have a body mass index (BMI) of 22 and lower or are disqualified from a fat transfer procedure

• Had a previous fat transfer surgery, but it didn't provide the dramatic results they wanted

• Are simply looking for a fuller and rounder bottom without the help of a fat transfer

What are butt implants made from?

Butt implants at Morales Plastic Surgery are made from semi-solid silicone, which makes them very different than traditional breast implants that are much softer in feel. They're firm like a muscle because they're made to withstand the daily stresses of sitting, walking, and exercising in Houston. Semi-solid implants come in different shapes, sizes, and profiles to accommodate each patient's unique needs.

What do butt implants feel like?

You might find that your butt implants feel a little different than other parts of your body. They are firm, but not rock hard. You'll likely notice them when sitting if you have less natural fat in the treatment area. The more fat you have covering the butt implant, the softer it feels. If you're concerned about the look or feel of silicone implants, speak with Dr. Morales. We can describe them in more detail.

What results should I expect?

Dr. Morales works closely with each patient to set realistic goals for butt augmentation results. That way, you can be sure you aren't setting yourself up for disappointment down the road. We want patients to enjoy beautiful results that are both natural-looking and functional. The great news is most women enjoy outcomes that allow them to feel confident and comfortable in any setting.
