Do Butt and hip implants really look super fake?

[Iliana.Found]

I had my left hip replaced because of arthritis and serious bone grinding in the joint. Previously, I had a lot of  pain in my hip when I walked. Every step I took hurt very much. Now with my new hip I can at least walk without pain.

Hip implants have some limitations. Running is out of the question. The problem is not with the implant, but the attachment to living bone. With repeated impacts, the attachments areas can break down and cause a broken leg or dislocated hip. Also, implants do not last forever. The first generation of implants needed to be changed every 10 years or so. Today we have implants that last much longer, but still they are not permanent.

One other limitation of hip implants is that the internal ligament of the natural hip joint is cut and cannot be replaced. The only thing holding the hip together is the external ligaments. My surgeon advised me that moving my leg up and across my body may cause a dislocation of the new hip joint. I am careful to not do this and also I exercise my leg joints to strengthen the muscles attached to the hip ligaments to better hold my new hip together.

Hip implants for cosmetic purposes are a completely unethical procedure. Any surgeon who performs this type of surgery, would have their license to practice medicine placed under review and most likely revoked.

Aaaaaaand that's the clarification I was looking for lol I knew there had to be a reason, but I was not sure what that reason was. Def not worth it! Good to know though  Thanks!

hey... I've had butt implants... I have to admit I already had a curvy arse from spending my life doing squats and sprinting... but... no... they don't look fake... I get compliments on my arse all the time, the barista from my fav café said I had the hottest arse he'd seen... though he does want to get in my pants... oh... and my GF is dead jealous and she's cis....

I got it done in Bangkok with Chettawut when I had SRS... I have consider sculpturing or hip implants... but i'm 44 and I'm not keen on too much more surgery, especially as I had a heap after being in the infantry... but hey... i'm pretty fit... so who knows.

seeing i'm completely useless on computers... i'll try to attach a photo from last week... body is not bad for nearly 45

I know older people get hip replacement surgery when they break theirs or something like that. My grandparents have had theirs replaced. I'm sure someone can clarify, but, for us trans-girls or anyone who feels they want wider hips, why cant they just screw in some hip wideners to the hip bones or something? May be a silly question, but I do not understand why it's not an option. Maybe it weakens the bone  Too much risk

God yes, this please. Having a proper pelvic brim would easily fix like 60% of my dysphoria. Hip/joint angle would prob take care of another 20.
