Brazilian Butt Lift: Stories

Hey guys, I'm 22 yo and I am dying to have this procedure done. I am in nursing school so finances are a little right, does anyone have any ideas? I want to have everything lined up before I call and schedule my consultation. I would like the butt augmentation with fat grafted from my inner thighs..

Okay so i'm reading all of this hype about the prices rising since Dr. J has been on the show, do you guys think that I should at least pay my $500 deposit to lock my price in? Because I don't want to chance the price going up simply because of publicity.

I'm SUPER excited guys!!! I scheduled my consultation!!! February 25th is the day!!! I'm looking to schedule my surgery for July!! I am soooo excited!!! I need to start getting my things together, because I don't wan't things to hit me all at once. I'm ready for these J curves!!!!!! I'm going to upload my pictures so that you ladies can see why I want my procedure. I'm not in horrible shape, but I want to exemplify what I do have. Please give any advice, i'm open to all comments.

I just got a huge sigh of relief!!!!! I called a financing company and I basically don't have a thing to worry about!!! I wasn't sure how the company worked, but they pay half of the procedure cost as long as you don't have any bankruptcies!!! I am STOKED!!! Does anyone know when would be a good time to start getting thins together?

I haven't had my consultation yet, it's scheduled for Feb 25th, but I have decided that I want to schedule my procedure for June or July!! Does anyone remember what days Dr. J is in surgery? I know I have some time, but I want to have everything set up in advance!! This is sooooo exciting having you ladies to walk through this with me!! I love it! I am addicted to this site!! Can't wait to get my big ol bootayyy!! I have been getting a little nervous, I know im not the smallest thing in the world, but I have lost a lot of weight recently and I hope my inner thigh, my tummy and my flanks are enough for him to lipo from!! Can one of you ladies look at my pictures and tell me what you think!! Right now, I am 148 and I would love to be around 135-140 after my procedure, and i know that he said that you should be about 10 pounds over your ideal weight for the best results. I hope I dont have to gain weight because I've worked so hard to lose it! BUTTTT i want my big bootyyy, so I may have to compromise!! I have seen GREAT before and after pictures of Dr. J's work and I can not wait!!! These 7 or 8 months that I have to wait are going to drive me crazy! LoL! I'm literally on here every day!! I get so excited reading you guys post!! I'm trying to stay positive and realize that these months have been flying by!! 8 months out from today i'll be closer to graduation, so I have a lot to look forward to :)

So ladies! Do you have any helpful tips that you could offer that I should start doing at this stage? I'm not too sure how all of that clearance stuff works and what all they need. If you know how that works please let me know!! I hope things are going great for everyone!! Can't wait until we all have our bootayyysss

Okay ladies,
So thanks to my BBL sisters tan824 and bubblegum28 I had a consultation with Shelly this morning and Dr. J will be calling me back shortly!! My sx is SET for July 3, 2013 :) I am super excited!! Excited to have my buddies!! Shelly was AWESOME!! She goes "girl your body is banging!!!! You have the cake and we have the icing" ;) I have all of my dates to have things turned in, deposit made, and the planning begins!!!! I am super excited!! If you guys are looking to have your surgeries in the summer, go ahead and book NOW because Shelly said that June was pretty much full. So Shelly recommended hips, so i will be adding hips to my package and we are still trying to see what Dr. J is going to say about my thighs. I dont wan't to pay an extra $900 for that because thats honestly the main place with the fat! He should go there first, so i'll let him figure that out ;) but anywho ladies, I AM EXCITEDDDDDDDDDD!!! I didn't want to plan without having my date set, but since July 3rd is the day (damnit right before the 4th) I AM ABOUT TO START PLANNING :) I know I have 8 months but I dont want time to fly by me too fast, and since i'm in nursing school, time will fly by! Anywho ladies, if you have any suggestions or questions, feel free to leave comments :)

So I just left my nutritionist and I must say, I am excited! These measurements are BANGING!!!!

Weight 163 to 147
Bust 38 to 35
Waist 35 to 27
Hips 44 to 44

This procedure is going to have me looking like something that you would see off of Jet :) Tooooo excited!! lol Let's see what Jimerson can do with this bodaaayyyyy ;)

Okay guys i need your opinions!!! My sx is set for July 3, 2013 at 1p. Has anyone had afternoon sx's and do you think it makes a difference whether you are first or last? I have read about Anesthesia being better in the morning or whatnot, but Anesthesia is Anesthesia around the clock. I just would like to hear you ladies who have personally experienced afternoon's input.

Soooo ladies,
I moved my date up, June 28th @ 7:30 am :) I want to hurry up and get this over with! I have been extremely anxious!! I know it's only a week earlier, but hey, I had to jump on it since someone had cancelled. I'm going to start stocking up on my things now, so that I wont have to buy a lot of things when the time comes!! I am super excited!!! I need to read through my info that they sent me again to make sure that I get what's required. I completely missed the "no artificial hair" memo! lol i love my weave!!! Has anyone ever worn extensions to their surgery? I plan on having my Senegalese Twist, i don't plan on dealing with hair during this time. Let me know ladies!! Anyone going around June 28th? If so, let me knowww :) I need to make sure that I start taking my iron pills in February or March because I don't need anyyy bleeding issues. Also, I've found a few places that do the Lymphatic massages, but if you guys have found any reasonable places that offer packages or even places that accept insurance, please let me know, I'm open for all suggestions. Also, do you guys suggest waiting to buy the second garment or getting it in advance? I have no clue about these types of things.

GEORGIA, HERE I COME!!! JUNE 28TH!!!

Sorry ladies that I had to remove my photos. I have a few tattoos that I don't need anyone identifying me by, so I deleted them. I MAY or MAY NOT post anymore pics on here bc I'm not too fond of this policy

If I see ONE MORE MF POST ABOUT A PICTURE I AM GOING TO SCREAM!!! I have no I dea why some ladies are on the defense side and jumping down others throat simply because they want their pictures down, did you catch that? THEIR PICTURES!!! You either continue to follow their journey, or you don't, keep it moving! This crap has gotten way out of hand, just let it rest. I'm sure WE ALL have more important things to do than "make a point" on here (at least I do). So basically what in saying is If you don't like the fact that others are taking pics down, cool, follow someone else's journey, if you are taking them down (as I have) also cool, continue to blog IF YOU WOULD LIKE & keep it moving, there's no point for all the going bck & forth & she arguing with her bc she wanted HER PICTURE taken down. Worry about important things, redirect your attention on positive things. LORD HAVE MERCY!

NOW! Have a good day!

Happy Thankdgiving Ladies!!!! I hope everyone is doing well!! Have a blessed Day

For all ladies that have been wondering if whether you finance or pay cash makes a difference, yes it does. I'm not sure what all things are different, but I know with the new policy's is if you finance now, yu can no longer get the 7:30am slot.

Last date change, I promise!! I have a had a few things come up and I will need to be up and ready to go in July, so I moved my date up a few :) Super excited!!! Me and my boo MsGradBooty will be linking up and crying together lol!! I am going to miss my girls tan824 and bubblegum28 :( But I should still be in ATL when you guys go, so I will surely come and check on you ladies :)

Okay ladies,
So the rumor has been confirmed. As of February 1st, financing decreases to $3,000 from $5,000. Thanks to all of the ladies that allowed Dr. J to transform their body, but not pay. Smh. Thanks a lot ladies! I'm not affected but it's unfair to those who are.
Have a blessed day loves.

Hi ladies!!
I thought I'd come and say hi! RS reminded me that I hadn't updated in over a month, so I said why not update? I'm on here everyday anyway!!! These months really flew by!! I went from having almost nine months of waiting to just 2 months left!! I am SUPER excited!!! Flight is booked, my housing is situated, my caregiver/BFF Nurse08 is a team player and going to help her loving best friend get through this & while I'm at it I would like to give her a S/O for her upcoming sx!!!! YIKES!! 11 says left!! I can't wait to see Dr. J work his magic on her!! My boo PinkMonkey will also be accompanying me when I head to ATL!! Not too much to update! Just about everything is in order!! Sx is paid off, clearance appointment set, insurance set to pay for my meds, pre & post massages arranged (insurance cover those as well), supplies are just abt done with and I picked up a few maxi dresses!! I will be packing very light. ATL airport is huge and I refuse to tug luggage through the airport in pain!! Lol well ladies! Just wanted to say hi and let you guys know where I am with the planning! Congrats to all of the ladies that have recently had their sx and good luck to the upcoming!!

God bless!! Xoxoxox

Hello ladies,
I just wanted to update my post to clear up a few things. I want to remind you ladies that no one journey will EVER be the same, so I think we should all spend a little bit more time focusing on our own journey, and not Jane Doe that had her sx done 2 months ago and how her communication was with the office. I am the type that I don't believe anything I hear unless I get it from the horse's mouth, and so far, that has worked in my favor. This entire uproar about Dr. Jimerson no longer doing pre and post op appointments was simply misconstrued and I wanted to talk to the office myself to see what was going on.
First off, I called the office with a positive attitude and spoke to the only person that i've been speaking with throughout my entire journey. I do not like talking to a thousand different people, just to make sure that I am getting accurate and consistent information. I spoke with Shelly, and i simply asked "Hey Shelly, could you explain to me how Dr. Jimerson is going about his pre and post op appointments?" I can not remember what she told me verbatim, but she basically confirmed what I thought. Pre op is to sign all paperwork, get your prescription and to ask any questions and address any concerns, if you would like to see or speak with Dr. J at that moment, all you have to do is ask, there is NO WAY that he will refuse to see you during pre or post op. The day of sx is the most important, Dr. Jimerson will spend 20-30 minutes with us while marking us up and making sure he understands what our wishes are, to me, that is the most important time to speak with him, right before sx, i want my wish to be VIVID in his mind. If i were to tell him what i wanted in my pre op appointment, the day before, im sure he would forget, and im the second patient, so i personally would prefer to speak with him the day of sx versus the day before when im filling out paperwork, but for the ladies that would like all of the appointments to be with the doctor, FYI, YOU CAN MEET WITH THE DOCTOR AT PRE & POST OP!! I wanted to clear that up because I am so tired of the uproar. I understand that we as women may have these concerns, but I personally don't believe a thing that I hear unless I hear it from the office. I've gotten inboxes and text messages about women wanting to switch PS simply on something that they HEARD. I did not pick my PS based on RS reviews and the patients on here, therefore I refuse to allow them to sway my decision. I did my research, and again, no one review is alike, therefore just because Jane Doe had a horrible or excellent experience doesn't mean that mine will be the same. A word of advice for the upcoming patients, you get a lot more accomplished when you call and talk with a calm demeanor and a positive attitude. If i would have called the office all hood "Uhhhhh Shelly, i heard on RS that Dr. Jimerson wasn't doing pre & post ops, whats up with that?" I'm sure that the coordinator would have been a lot less warm and welcoming, it's all about how you talk to ppl. They understand that we are paying an arm and a leg for this sx, so our concerns are very important. So basically my point of this post is to say, do your own research, call about your own concerns, RS Is not the answer, call the office and get it from the horse's mouth!
Have a great day ladies!!

PS. My sx is QUICKLY approaching! May 17th i will be on the other side!!

43 days left until I head to GA!! Can we say excited?!? I started with 8+ months to go, now I have less than 2. Just about everything is set in stone, just ready to roll!! Are there any ladies that will be having their sx around May 17th? I haven't seen any at all, if so, hit me up. Im sure the recover would be easy if you have someone going through it as well. I have a very strong support system so i'm sure i'll be good either way!!
Anywho, Happy Healing to all of the ladies that have recently had their sx and good luck to all of the upcoming ladies :)

Medical clearance went great!! Waiting on Lab work and the countdown begins!!!
29 days to go!!! :)

10 days left ladies!! I am super excited!! I guess I should start packing 0_o I've been soooo busy!! Ughhhh!! Anywho! Counting downnnnnn

Wow guys. This is really happening!! Today was my last day of work before I head to GA. I got a little emotional thinking about it. This will be a life changing event for me. I'm beyond excited. I guess it won't get 100% real to me until I get on that plane and take off. I have sooooooo much to do & will be out of town until 1 day before my flight. I thank God for my best friend Nurse08. She will be taking care of me during this very important time. She's done it, so she'll know exactly what I need to do. I've been having dreams about my surgery lately. I guess that's how I really know it's close. & To my baby loves Tan824 & BubbleGum28 thank y'all so much for everything that y'all do for me. I really appreciate it. Again ladies. I'm sooooooo excited and thanks for the support!!

Okay guys. So I called to confirm everything and make sure that I am good to go. I got the green light, in fact I got even better news. Instead of me being the second surgery of the day, I am now at 7:30!!!! First surgery!!! Whooop whoop!! I'm so excited abt that!!! :) guys pls keep me in your prayers

Well well well ladies!!! Today has finally come!!! I am at the airport, checking bags and waiting to go through security!! I can't believe this is happening! I must be a nut because I'm not afraid or nervous at all!! Ladies get to the airports early as possible. Security has been really right now!! I've read a few people missing flights due to this!! Anywho, I'm super excited and can't wait to see all of yu Georgia peaches!!! :) Again, thank everyone for the well wishes and safe travels!! Hugs & kisses!!

Hey my loves!! I'm one day closer to the new me!! I'm up, out and about. I had my pre op massage and it was AMAZINGGGGGGG!!!!!! That was the best hour and a half of my life!!! Lord she did that!! LoL so after my massage I went to my pre op. Everyone was so nice, Shelly came in and talked to me. She's just as excited as I am! Lol! I saw my girl Caramel01, I guess they were behind because it was 2 o'clock before she went back, she had been there since 11:30! I can't wait that long. My nerves are too bad!! Anywho, my pre op went great, got all of my paperwork and picked up my meds. It costed me a total of $30, pretty good considering that some ppl were paying $300+. Not gonna work for me! LoL! Anywho. I'm scheduled for 7:30 in the morning. I know I won't be able to sleep tonight. Ladies please send a prayer up for me. **hugs**

Morning loves. I must admit, I'm feeling a tad but emotional. I had a really rough day yesterday. I won't get into details, but I prayed and God has it all. Ladies please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. Talk to you soon.

Well ladies I've crossed over!!! It wasn't as bad as I'd been expecting. Day 1 has been a breeze!! I didn't ask how much was taken section. But I do know they I got 900 in each cheek & 250 in the hips . I know it's soon but I know I'll love my results Even after the swelling. Dr, j ended up having to take from my inner thigh which I pretty much knew. Okay ladies!!

Pics posted, feel free yo comment

Today is post op day two for me and I must say, my recovery isn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be. The only issue that I have sometimes is the burning sensation in my lipo'd areas, but that's about it. I walk as much as possible and I stay on track with my meds. I take my garment off today, hope it's not too bad!! Well that's all for now ladies! If you have any questions, feel free to inbox me :)

Hey ladies,
Just a small update, not much has changed. A few women have been asking me abt the amount off CC's that were removed during sx so I found out the info and will list it below

Taken Out
Flanks-600
Abdomens-800
Thighs-600
Stomach-800
Lower back-1400
3400 removed all together

Put In
Hips-250
Butt-900

That's pretty good. I knew there was no way he would get 5,000 cc's off of me, But he made it work!
Okay so I haven't been in any pain whatsoever! I get the burnig sensation in my lower back and abdomen, but that's abt it. The only thing that I feel is pressure & it's very minimal. Y'all, when I tell you that I almost passed out taking that garment off!!!!! Lord it is no joke! It took 3 of us to get that tight ass garment over my big ass!! It was so painful! That's the one time since sx that I experienced pain. I took a pain pill and a nausea pill an hour before taking it off & it still got the best of me!! Again, if you ladies have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Each day has gotten easier for me, but last night I made the mistake of not waking up to walk or take my pain meds and boy am I paying for it!!! I could barely move! My bck and abdomen was stiff as a board. I'm up trying to walk to loosen by body up but that was certainly a mistake that I won't make again! Happy healing ladies

Today I had my first post op massage and it was phenomenal!!!! When we started I could Bart be touched!!! By the end I was walking better, my thighs weren't as swollen & I felt like a new women! LoL I started anticipating an hour, my body needed so much work, we ended up going for a full 2 hours. Every minute of the 2 hours was very necessary!! I was going to get my drains taken out early today bc they weren't draining, but after my massage it drained a little more, so I'll just keep it until Friday! Anywho, happy healing ladies!!

Just got my drains out and I am a happy girl!! That thing was the devil!!! I feel like a new women without that thing!! Everyone in the office, including Dr. J was mesmerized by my booty!! He of course asked to put me on his website! I am so happy with this process! Everyone was so sweet. Dr. J asked me if he made it too big for me lol, I asked him "is there even a such thing?" Lol that man is a genius as what he does. Seriously. I'm so happy that I had faith in him And didn't let others experience away mine. I'm currently at the Health Mart Pharmacy across the street from Dr. J's office picking up some specially made scar cream that the pharmacist here has to create. He just got the insurance to cover it so I'm happy abt that! He said it works great. He said that it's better than Scarguard and Mederma, so I said hey, why not, insurance is covering it. Anywho ladies, let me know If you have any questions, I don't mind answering them.
