Good Evening!

Well I am 23 years young and under going a major procedure like this is a little nervewrecking. I have an OKAY shape, but know it could be much better. I have a little bit of butt, but it is more wide than bubbly. I am lacking the confidence I know I should have because weight on tummy and arm flab.

I have been considering since a friend got her's done several months ago.
I want to get rid of my stomach/love handles and have my butt sit up higher. I am debating between Dr. Okoro and Jimensen.

ANY INFO WILL HELP :-)

So I have been gone for a while.... I am going...

So I have been gone for a while....
I am going back & forth - back & forth
I am scared of the recovery process. Does anyone know what to do to ease that time? I read some stuff about taking vitamens before, etc. What can I do so my recovery process is quick?
I want to get as much information as possible. I am going to Hawaii for my best friends wedding in March. Ideally I would like to have had the procedure and be fully recovered & bikini ready.
Also, I want to take the fat from my arms and love handles, but my thighs need to be tightened (no lipo) what would one suggest for this? A cellulite treatment?
I was told because fat already deposits to my behind that the procedure will do well with my body and the fat will stay in place.

Does anyone have tips on the financial part of the procedure? Being that I am going to Hawaii which will cost around 3,4 k , spending another 8, 9 on my butt is a little extreme. I have one guy friend that says he will give me part. Is there a finance company that works with bad credit?

Thank you for all your help!

So Ladies I was sad to learn Dr. J's next consultation isn't available until June of next year!
I want to get my surgery in Jan/Feb.
Any other good Doctors to recommend? Has anyone seen Dr. Okoro?
Thanks for all your help!

Okay sorry ladies I have been updating like crazy...

Okay sorry ladies I have been updating like crazy the past two days, but I can't help it I am so excited!!!!

IF you want to finance go through medical financing they require only 600 credit score and one open account for at least a year with good payment history!

OR

They require you to put half of the procedure down and verify your income.

Also; if anyone has a consult with Dr. J and needs to cancel please let me know!

Okay I have found financing, and want to go with...

Okay I have found financing, and want to go with Dr. Jimerson
HOWEVER
Consultation isnt until may & then they said surgery within three weeks.

SOOOO if any of you ladies have to cancel for any reason - Please let me know! I am here in Georgia and can switch easily.
Thanks a bunch :-)

Thank you to everyone for all their input and advice. I really love this site!

After seeing someone that wanted to change dates and being unable to reach her - I contacted the office and sure enough they had an opening for tomorrow at 11am!!!
Consultation on the way. Does anyone have any suggestions for questions I should ask? I have some of my own.
Looking to schedule the surgery for either end of january or end of march! EEEEK! I am so excited :-)

I had my consultation this morning and i'm still...

I had my consultation this morning and i'm still undecided. However, if you are considering a Bbl at all Dr. Jimerson is the only way to go!! He was very polite and honest.
Monica the patient coordinator was amazing. Very sweet and informative.
I'm undecided because i'm somewhat nervous about the surgery and recovery process. I need to loose ten pounds before the surgery and for best results I'll be getting liposuction of stomach, love handles, bra roll with grafting to hips and butt. I wanted to get my arms, but I think it will be best to do that desperately so I can have my arms fully functioning while the rest of my body recovers.

I am curious about bruising, scarring, etc. I am seeing alot of post op pictures that have black round dots i'm hoping its just bruising and that the scarring won't be so bad.

also wanted to know if anyone hired a nurse? If so, how did you find the nurse. Do they specialize in this surgery? How helpful was it?
Thank you soooo much for the help!!!
Great review?

OK THANK YOU SO MUCH @COKEBOTTLE23 I WENT ON THAT WEBSITE N APPLIED THEY GAVE ME A CLIENT ID N SAID I WAS PRE APPROVED AND THAT I HAD TO CONTACT DR JIMERSONS OFFICE. I HOPE ALL WORKS OUT BECAUSE I KNOW WHEN U FINACE SOMETHING IT MAKES YOUR CREDIT SCORE GO UP AND THAT'S WHAT IM TRYING TO DO
Cokebottle23 13 Dec 2012
no problemy hunny, its only good for 90 days so make sure u call the doc! it will def help your credit :) but make sure they report
PrettyPhysique 13 Dec 2012
Hey mama, you prob should have waited to apply for the financing because it expired in 30-60 days, so when it's time for your sx you'll have up apply again.
YOUNGSLIMTHING23 13 Dec 2012
how does the financing work once u get accepted u have to pay your half then or can u still wait till around your surgery date and my credit is a 620 and i didnt get approved for the medical financing :-(
Cokebottle23 13 Dec 2012
for medical financing u have to have thr 600+ credit score and have had an account paid on time for a year min. healthcarefinancedirect.com finances $5000 guarunteed. you pay a $500 deposit yourself when u schedule your surgery then the full balance must be paid two weeks prior to your surgery, hope this helps :-)

Yay!!! What a blessing. I would just make sure you show him what you are hoping to achieve & make it real clear. Let us know how it goes.

Thank you!

Hey, just FYI, Dr. J does not accept the No Patient Left Behind financing.
Nat7080 30 Nov 2012
He does have in house financing in which everyone is approved for 1/2 of their procedure cost, up to $5000
Cokebottle23 30 Nov 2012

PrettyPhysique 30 Nov 2012
Good luck on your journey!!
HourGlass123 30 Nov 2012
Hey! Did you look at Dr. S - I am going to him in August. And being a little nervous it TOTALLY OK! I am too, well I go back and forth from nervous to omg why am i doing this to omg i cannot wait!! haha :)
Cokebottle23 30 Nov 2012
Yeah I see he does good work, but I really want to stick with someone in Georgia. The flying and all of that alone would just be too much. Nothing is better than your own bed when feeling sick and having people to take care of me! Lol. Thanks though, I am excited for you! Have you read up on what to do to ease the pain/recovery? I saw a few things but that is my biggest concern
HourGlass123 30 Nov 2012
I really just will take the pain meds and drink water :/ that's all you can really do its gonna be painful but like they say beauty is pain and pain is beauty :)
bootiebeauty78 29 Oct 2012
Hey. Consult with both & see which one you connect with more. Dr. J can Skype you if you are not available for in person consult.
Cokebottle23 29 Nov 2012
