I am 28 years old, 5'3 145-150lb, looking to have the BBL. I'm having lippo to upper/lower back, stomach, and flanks...maybe chin which is $225-250 extra..I haven't decided on chin yet.. I've had this idea about the BBL years and years ago but the idea quickly disappeared due to getting discouraged about not being able to afford the procedure.. I think the idea came back to me when one day I looked in the mirror and I just couldn't stand the fact of how my body looked. The feeling of hating how your body looks almost gives off like you hate yourself in general but that's not the case. Every since high school my body has notbbeen the same. Over time, I've gained weight, lost weight, but just not in the right areas... At one point, I just couldn't take it anymore with my looks so I just started researching the BBL procedure all over again this year...I stumbled across this site in feb.2012 and I've actually been a lurker (lol) up until now..So I know what time it is when it comes down to certain info and a little knowledge on here..I wanted to make an official appointment before coming out of hiding..(lol) plus I noticed Salama prices are getting higher..so ladies lock your appt. in while u can..This site is so wonderful and I was able to learn so much about the procedure and much more...The support sym. on here is BANANAS!!!! LOVE ALL OF THE BBL SISTERS FOR SUPPORTING EACH OTHER!!! After carefully searching, I've decided to go with Dr. S. I think his work is brilliant and I love all of his results...Im gonna do something a little bit different..instead of putting up models as a wish pic..I'm going to hand pic certain ladies that doc S. has worked on as wish pics..I'm gonna do this to try and challenge the doctor at his own work to make me look like his previous patients or better...so I will shout out those ladies when I pic their pics out..I have the blessing of my mother and she will be joining me on this journey.. I'm blessed to have her support because I understand a lot of women don't have that..close friends and my boyfriend is all in with this procedure to..so my support system is OFF GLASS!!! lol!!! Thank You realself and to the sisters that heard my story..love u guys and lets all walk on this journey together positive and all as one..I will be posting my pics and wish pics soon..ttyl:)

Hello ladies!! Haven't really been posting, just...

Hello ladies!! Haven't really been posting, just trying to learn as much as possible about this procedure. Thank You to all of the ladies that has been giving advice and also preparing EVERYONE for this surgery...Happy healing to all the ladies that have been through this process and for the ones that are about to go through this...This procedure is huge and I know that this sx is no walk in the park...So I wanted to acknowledge the fact that I thank everyone for much support and advice on everything..I personally appreciate everyone...I've been a little torn on how I am going to pay for this sx..my mind was set on this thing about Flexible Spending Account..Does anyone have that on their insurance??? The account is supported by your job if you have insurance. Basically you pay for certain medical expenses using the card..Like paying for a co-payment when you go to the doctor for example...I was told you can max the card out and use the card to pay for a medical expense (for surgery)...But later on, I found out that you can't use the card to pay for a sx like (lipo), the card doesn't support it:/ So back to square one to figure out on how to pay for this procedure..How is everyone paying for their surgery??? Please Help!!

Thinking about going to Dr. Yily, I'm starting to like what I see on her results. Starting to see to many complaints on Salama, it's making to nervous right now.

Welp!! I have still yet to hear from Yily yet,...

Welp!! I have still yet to hear from Yily yet, **sigh** this is so frustrating with waiting on her team to confirm a date. I sent an email twice in Spanish and still no response. I had my BFF Le call for me and they talking bout they never received my email, and they kept her on hold long, and they hung up on her, wtf?!?!?! I'm trying to get a date in may so its not let I'm trying to get march or april which march is booked and half of april is booked I heard. This is getting on my nerves. Sorry ladies, I'm venting. I'm just at least trying to get the ball rolling so I can prepare to get everything done. Is anyone going through the same thing I'm going through???

Hey Ladies!!!! Finally!!! Ya girl is in there with...

Hey Ladies!!!! Finally!!! Ya girl is in there with Yily. My BFF has been calling for me because I cant make calls to DR. I finally got my email on my quote. I'm having fat grafting to buttock, BBL, liposuction of abdomen, armpit, back, flanks, waist, chin is 3,200$USD. It also includes 1 compression garment, pre-operatory tests( TTP, HIV, Hbs, HCV, BASAL GLYCEMIA, GLYCEMIA, UREA, SERUM CREATININE, FULL BLOOD COUNT, VDRL, BLOOD TYPE Y RH) , cardiologist (EKG), anesthesiologist (epidural block), clinic fees (room, operating room, nurses, IVs, 3 meals, surgical assistants, etc). I may add my thighs for an extra $250.00. I also sent my deposit out yesterday, it's official, my date is Fri. May 17th. Sweet baby JESUS!!!! I'm so excited!!! I plan on staying from Thurs May 16-Fri May 24. I will be staying at the RH for one day and then stay at the Plaza del Sol $45 per day. Any girls that are coming in between my times are more then happy to come for a group discount:) I'm also bringing two of my friends with me for support. I currently have a date for Salama on Thursday on May 23. My deposit was $600, if anyone wants to buy my date out please feel free to inbox me. Also my total for the sx with Salama is 6799 so IDK if you take my date if you will be able to use my cost verses yours if you are paying more than what I was gonna pay for the sx. If I don't sell my date, I'll just use my deposit for another procedure with Salama. I just wanna thank all of the ladies help with trying to get through to Yily's team, I love you guys as always...###TEAM YILY IN DA BUILDING!!!!!

Hi ladies!!!! I haven't posted in awhile since...

Hi ladies!!!! I haven't posted in awhile since joining the Yily train. Ok, I know I said I was with Yily in my last post but unfortunately with the change of events with my job (just got a new postion) and the training, I have decided to postpone my sx in may, HOWEVER, also after carefully viewing more results from Yily, I think I may have jumped the gun with her. Yily is GOOD at what she does, and that's only sculpting, IMO!! Not bashing her or anything. I admire her work. She gives you hips for days. She sucks all the fat out of you for the life of her. BUT, I feel she won't give me the projection, juicy, big booty I'm looking for. Sooo I forgot which bbl sister said this but, why not have the best of both worlds. Yily and Salama in my case. I'm gonna go ahead and stick with Salama, here's the catch with him, I need to get rid of my may date. My date is May 23, I need a mid Sept. or early Oct date. If any of you ladies wanna change dates, please inbox me ASAP!!! Now with Yily, I'm considering a boob job with her. I will either get a lift or implants, haven't decided. This will be late next year. So if there's any additional lipo around that year comes, I'll just have her lipo me from either left over fat from Salama or any fat that I have gain over the year since she really good at aggressive lipo. Now I had a May 17 date with Yily, so if anyone wants that date please inbox me also. She can just keep my deposit till next year when I go to her so it can go towards my ba procedure. Anyway back home to Salama, go day ladies, and the journey continues...

TEAM DURAN AT THIS POINT DURAN! DURAN! DURAN! I'm done changing my mind

Hello ladies!!! I haven't been on here in awhile but I've been lurking a lot more then talking unless I had a question about something. Since my last posting, I have stated that I was going to stick with Salama but for the last and final time my mind has been made up. I am going with Dr. Duran. I have decided to go with her because she has the talent of sculpturing and she gives big butts. The three main things that I really wanted was hips, small waist, and a big butt. After seeing her pictures on FB and a few of her patients, I was sold. I also befriended her on FB and she excepted:) I receive a quote for the BBL, BL, arms. I want a date for Monday October 7, 2013. Any ladies going around that time I don't mind linking up. Please feel free to inbox me:D I plan on sending my deposit this Monday coming up to lock my date. Once I send my deposit I was thinking of staying at Angela's recovery House for about 8 days. I swear changing your mind so much has become very costly. This is were the train stops for me ladies. The only thing that I have to verify with Duran is adding the chin and instead of the BL, I did ask for BL with implants so I will clarify that with the office. It didn't take her long to respond and I am so happy that she responded to me so quickly. Here's how my email went...
Greetings, (Sent June 5)
My name is XXX and I was looking to schedule surgery on Monday October 7 2013. I am 29 years of age and 5"3 145 lbs with no kids. I have never had surgery before and I do not have any health issues. I'm looking to have the following done: BBL, Lipo to the chin, Lipo to the arms, and Breast lift with implants. Attached is some photos of my body of how much fat that i have. If possible, please send me some information regarding meds, transportation, recovery house, etc. Thank you, and I hope to hear from someone.
(Note) I also translated my request in Spanish as well. So I sent the email in Spanish and English..

PS

I am so exhausted at looking at ass it isn't even funny, lmao!!!! I've been on this site for over a year trying to get my life and my ass right, lol.

Duran is responding very quickly to me on facebook

Check this out dolls...So ya'll remember me saying that Duran has accepted me as a friend on FB. It's like whatever questions I have she is moving pretty fast on answering them. If I don't get a response from the office she would respond back to me. I'm learning the quickest way to getting some type of response is get to the point at hand what you are asking for. Anything extra, you may not get a response. Tell them point blank what it is that you need. Don't go into a life story about yourself. Hi my name is xxx, My height and weight is xxx. My health is xxx, I had sx in the past on xxx. I'm looking to have xxx done. Also try to ask the best questions that most concerns you and keep it to a minimum. Try to reframe from asking over five questions at a time. Remember, Duran is a busy lady as well as the office. The office has to go through so many emails a day not to stay on one email with a lot of questions to answer. Now you may get lucky and get them answered, who knows.. Straight to the point everyone.. Hope this helps:) This goes for Yily dolls as well..

Great review?

I would love to go to Duran for round 2 (bbl is a bit addictive lol) just the whole language barrier puts me off. But cant wait to see ur results that might sway my decisionxx

Lmbo!!! Girl bbl is addictive. I've been looking at ass for a year on here so I know you understand, lol. Yea that's what I was worried about as well as the language barrier. But I mean sometime you gotta do what you gotta do to get what you want, Especially for the doctor you want it from. I'm willing to put my feelings on the side regarding the language barrier to get the ass and the hips that I want to have. Thank you love regarding waiting to see my results, I'd hope to sway you before then lol ;)

I have a question. Since the preop test are included in the quote, does that mean there are no tests that you have to do beforehand? I wasnt sure. Thanks!
  • Reply
No problem, in the quote she wants your hemoglobin levels to be more than 12 gm/dl. Also she stated in her quote you have to have these test done..Creatinine, glucose, full blood count, hematocrit, EKG, radiography. She wants all these test to be done before having the sx..
