TT with BBL for 2x the money or just BB

By flybabymomma on 25 Aug 2012

A little about me, I'm 5'4" 165 ( and losing) 2 kids, single working mom. I am looking to get a TT and BBL. I received my quote from Dr Salamas of 7799.00 (from other reviews seems to have gone up a lot) for just BBL. problem is he won't do the TT and BBL together. So I am going to a consult with Dr Markmann in Maryland for a TT and BBL. only problem there is the $$$. Markmann is asking for 16k and at least 4 k for the TT. That's a lot of money!! Question I have for you ladies is what do you think I should do? What would you do, considering in all factors,not just money, travel, kids etc (FYI I live in NJ). Anyone who has had to make a similar decision or in the same boat I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Thanks girls!!

Hi babymomma I'm in the same dilemma like you. I got a quote from Dr J for both procedures $14900 and from Dr Azurin $11450. Hope this will help you.

Hi Zizi! I am still waiting on Dr Azurin quote. I am hoping its under 12k, fingers crossed!! I would really like to go with salama because his results are amazing, but he doesnt do TT at the same time :-( i lretty much gave up on Markmann after he cancelled my consult like 5 days before after i had it scheduled for months! I think i will end up with Dr A.

I have a feeling you won't be disappointed going with dr A. I love his technique, low cut. I called dr S in July too ,got quote $8000 only for BBL and I couldn't wait until next year (may) so then I knew Dr A will be my doc. I'm looking forward to see your result. If you go with dr A please trust him. Trusting your dr makes a huge difference in your result.

Markmann cancelled your consult, my doc in Lenox Hill cancelled my surgery date after I spent $600 on blood work ,ekg, xcr,pictures . Only the pics were $350, $175 per body part. So I can totally feel your disappointment but I feel that Dr Azurin will make both of us happy

Hi there,

I haven't had a BBL myself, but there are lots of ladies that have experience of those surgeries together and as seperates. Have you looked through the BBL review community, lots of great experiences there. Here's a link: http://www.realself.com/Brazilian-butt-lift/reviews?all

I've heard a lot of people saying that the recovery period is much harder when you have both surgeries together, which is something to take into account.

Hope this helps!
