The fashion for an out-there derrière, as made famous by J-Lo has prompted a market for silicone implants in the buttocks.
Women (or is it their boyfriends?) want their bottoms high and round. An incision is made in the centre of the lower back, and the implants are placed behind the gluteus maximus muscle.
Does it hurt?
You'll be uncomfortable and bruised, have to wear a support garment for at least two weeks and must carry a soft cushion everywhere - not very J-Lo.
Why have it?
If your rear end is hopelessly Anglo-Saxon (flat) and no amount of "buns of steel" workouts will perk it up, you could benefit.
What are the downsides?
There's a slim chance of rupture and infection. Some patients have suffered swelling and hardness - not ideal for a bottom. It can take about six weeks to recover. And what happens when sticky-out bottoms go out of fashion?
Where can I get it?
Chris Inglefield, a highly regarded surgeon, has some impressive examples of his work on his website (www.cjinglefield-plasticsurg.com).
How much?
Around £3,000.
Who has had it done?
No A-listers, as far as we know. Brazilian women - for whom the ideal buttock is spherical - are the pioneers. It has gone down a storm in Los Angeles. Some lap dancers have found it boosts their careers.
I'd happily become a donor.
My wife says I'm already too big of an ass.
Ouch!
remember when women STOPPED wearing tight pants that showed their big bum?
Dang, look at those thighs! Didn't she pass by a mirror at any point?
ROFL. I could see part of my belly looking mighty fine on a woman's tush!
I'll refrain from concurrence. LOL
J-Lo has a big rump IMHO I surely would not want it!
You chicks are nuts!!!
I must have missed the thigh part of the pic.....
very interesting
She's got spare to share! ;o)
Here is a joke.
Wife comes home and she is jumping up and down smiling and laughing on the bed,, husband comes home and says *What the heck are you so happy about??
Wife says jumping up and down *well the doctor says I have breasts of a 20 yr old Yipee!!!
And husband says>>
Oh Yeah! well what the heck did he say about your 40 year old A**S???
And she says Honey Your name never came up!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHA
Considering it?? LOL
Good one!
I'm living with what God gave me which is way more than what J.Lo has.
I have no idea but I guess Big Butts are the in thing!
Funny how that works!
