To qualify for hip implants, you’ll first undergo a comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Rogers, a board-certified cosmetic surgeon. This evaluation will include discussions around your gender identity, medical history, and any previous hormone therapy or surgical procedures you may have already undergone. Individuals seeking hip implants must generally be at least 18 years old or have parental or legal guardian consent if under 18. You should also have a stable and healthy medical history, including a body mass index (BMI) within a healthy range.
After undergoing hip implant surgery, the majority of patients can resume normal walking as early as one day following the surgery. Light exercise may be resumed two weeks post-surgery, while strenuous exercise can be resumed after a month. Before the day of your procedure, Dr. Rogers and his team will work closely with you to ensure that you’re given a clear idea of what you’ll experience on the day of your procedure, along with a detailed set of aftercare instructions. We’ll also be sure to set up follow-up appointments with you, so we can answer any questions you might have and ensure that you’re healing properly.
