3 months post op and I still have some small pockets of swelling in random places,my body seems to be changing by the day..My ass looks great but I'm looking for perfection..lol well as close as I can get.. So a round 2 may be in my future..I'm very happy with the results from the BBl,but I do have 2 flat spots,one on each cheek.. I noticed them about 5 or 6 hours after surgery. I have tried and tried to get pictures of them, but I can't get the pictures to turn out the way looks in person..While I'm on the subject of pictures, I will update them tomorrow,I'm going to have a friend take them..

I had really good results with the lipo,even tho I'm not totally done with the swelling..

The Recovery from this procedure is rough,I consider myself a strong person,high tolerance for pain,strong willed.. This surgery just about broke me.. The fact that I would even consider a round 2 surprises me.. Round 2 can't be as bad as the first round right?

Well I'm now 3 weeks post OP..
Recovery has went well,I know I walked 30 country miles the first week,and drank gallon, upon gallon, upon gallon, of electrolyte mixes.. I drained an incredible amount of fluid. I see that alot of ladies on here are getting yeast infections,I took Acidophilus Probiotic pills, and did not get a hint, of a yeast infection.. if you don't wanna take the pills stock up on yogurt and eat it every couple hours or less.. The massages hurt like HELL!! The ladies that have their surgery on Thursday, have it made in the shade...you have some recovery time before you start the massages.The second week was badl!! I had some digestive problems,and had to switch to the larger garment until my system sorted its self out, and some more swelling went down..I'm now in the smaller garment,the foam pads suck ass..I am a person that has to shower,packing everything back up is a pain..I felt like the Michelin Man,and looked like a barrel with an ass.. So I took care of that problem.. I ordered ,Compression Thong Shaper 6011t By Squeem.. I have since ditched the foam rubber, I'm wearing the thong shaper under the doctor issued garment, its smooth,its tight and it makes dressing and undressing so much easier..it fastens with hook and eye in the crotch,it makes going to the bathroom a little tricky,but its doable..and you are squeezed in all the right places..it even replaced the triangle pad you wear in the back...I have some picture from 2 weeks post op,I have to get them from my phone to the computer.. stay tuned..

Thank you for updating! Are you still doing the messages at home?
September 26, 2012
yes, but I'm doing them myself, most of the work that was done on me was in the front..Let me tell you, it still hurts like hell, even when I do it..

2cheeky he gave you a beautiful heart shape! Did you take your acidopholus with your antibiotics or did you take them at different times?
September 27, 2012
It's funny you said that,because that is exactly what i asked for..an inverted heart shape..
September 26, 2012
I took 2 as soon as I got back to the condo after surgery,before I started the antibiotic,then took one a day a few hours after the antibiotic..
September 26, 2012
Thanks. I'm glad those are just one a day. The last thing we need is a yeast infection when we're trying to recover.

the first night was tough, lots of pain pills went down the hatch,the drains are a pain, but they are needed..My eyes swelled like I got into a fight..The MMH vitamins really work.. I didn't take them until 3 this morning,and by 5 the swelling in my eyes has gone down almost all the way,and the drains have been draining like mad since I've taken them... they do work and they are so worth it.... I've been standing more then laying down,standing is more comfortable for me.. .DR.Salama said, he has heard that girls were saying he doesn't like wish pics, but that's not true..He is an excellent PS if you keep your goals realistic..If you do take a wish pic, keep it real.. everyone's shape is different and what works on one body type may not work on others... keep that in mind when you take your wish pics.. like I said ,He's a excellent Plastic Surgeon,,but he is not God...He does the best he can, with what you have to work with..I didn;t have to many questions for him,He has the training ,not me,so I gave him a blank canvas and let him work his magic..
