AU_1804100 - ** RIGHTS: ONLY AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND ** Los Angeles, CA - Botched patient Jabrena is flipping out over her huge butt implants. Doctors Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif met with Jabrena to hear all about her balloon butt. As the Georgia resident revealed she chose to get buttock implants after being teased for her 'beanpole' physique. However, not long after the surgery, Jabrena realized her implants were not quite right. "Two weeks after surgery, the swelling started to kind of go down and you could see the implant kind of on the side. It was like a crease," Jabrena said. "But, about a month-and-a-half later, the implant flipped." To make matters worse, she said the implants now flip 'four or five times a week'. "It's very uncomfortable. Like, it hurts," she added. When Jabrena spoke with her original surgeon about the problem, he said he'd fix the issue - for $4,000. So, Jabrena decided it was time to seek out a second opinion and reached out to the Botched docs. "I just want a little, cute, nice toot butt and not this big honk that I have back here," Jabrena begged during her consultation with the doctors. "We certainly want to help you, but we don't want to restore you to a place that you hate," Dr. Dubrow noted after hearing Jabrena's case. "It's a butt dilemma." While examining Jabrena's implants, Dr Dubrow realized she had 'implant malposition'. "Not only are the implants in a pocket that's way too big, but they're in the wrong plane in the pocket, allowing them to flip around too easily," Dr Dubrow explained. "The problem is, if I just take the implants out, she'll have so much sagging skin and no projection that I'll be trading one big problem for another even bigger problem." As Dubrow no longer works with butt implants, he suggested a 'possible fat flap transfer and buttock lift'. After removing the 600 cc implants and 500 cc of fluid, Dubrow observed that Jabrena's volume problem was worse than he thought. Despite the complications, Jabrena's surgery was a success, leaving her with a butt that 'might make the Kardashians jealous'. "Before my surgery, I had a saggy butt and implants were flipping," Jabrena stated post-surgery. "But now, thanks to Dr. Dubrow, I am finally free of my honk butt and now I have that cute toot butt that I've always wanted." *BACKGRID DOES NOT CLAIM ANY COPYRIGHT OR LICENSE IN THE ATTACHED MATERIAL.
