Hello ladies, went yesterday to try to get the last minute stuffit needed, not sure What clothes to bring Because of the drains and garment i Will have to put on, if someone of you guys Know please share, i am not sure if the garment has sleeves or not...

Ok Girlas!!! Well I went to my consultation today....

Ok Girlas!!! Well I went to my consultation today. Got to dr Salamas office at 12:30 pm. Sign all the paperwork that is to sign. Then was called inside. Changed into my paper dress, like 5 minutes later Dr Salama came in. Asked me what I wanted, he gave me his professional opinion. I have read so much here of how serious he is and everything else, ladies this is not true at all. He is super professional and who wants to be joking around when you're talking about plastic surgery ? Answer all our questions And went through any possible complication that could happen. Then the important question: do you want a big butt??? I said yes. Met Nancy, beautiful lady, very pretty and nice. Helped me finalize everything. I am contemplating doing chin lipo too, will think about it tonight. Ladies this dr is very professional and his staff too. Don't believe about his serious character because it is not true al all, this is not my first plastic surgery and I wanted to be with the best and I am super excited for this and very sure I made the right choice.

Oh ladies surgery is tomorrow at 1:30 pm. Got pill from dr so I can sleep good tonight, hubby went to get arnica gel because I haven't been able to find it nowhere, but we called a publix and they had it. Dr also gave me arnica pills. Got pads for the bed too so it doesnt get bloody with the leaks of the drains. I am praying to God everything goes well please have me in your prayers.

Hello ladies!! I made it to the other side!! First night was rough. Without my husband I'm not sure what I would've done. Woke up and got the news 1500 ccs!! Omg my butt is huge!! I will post pictures in a couple days when I'm less bloody and swollen. Wash garment today because it is impossible to keep it clean when using the bathroom, I did my chin too and really see the difference already. Also did my arms and inner thighs too. My next appointment is Sunday and Monday the first massage. Very afraid of it, everyone says that is very painful. I want to thank you guys for your prayers and for keeping me in your thoughts. We met a very nice couple at the Dr office, we wish we met you guys before. Ladies Dr Salama work is amazing I am very pleased with my results already. And also ladies keep your meds on time. Take them before it's time. This pain is no joke. I will keep you guys updated. Will take some rest now. Talk to you guys later. Good night.

Ok ladies here I added 2 pics with the garment on.

Hello beautiful ladies!!! I made it through my first massage today. Took warm shower first, then took 2 pain killers and headed to the dr office, Celia God Bless her hands, massage was a little uncomfortable, but very needed. I was super relieved at the end of it. And also Celia made me feel very comfortable too. She is awesome. Ladies you need these massages. Have next appointment for wednesday to see dr and for next massage. Thank you all for your prayers and best wishes i really appreciate it. Talk to you guys in a little bit.

Hello ladies!!! Im back. This have been harder...

Hello ladies!!! Im back. This have been harder than I thought, i have been in so much pain. Last night we left Aventura for our 4 hour drive home, not easy at all, I didn’t wanted to sit and I didn’t and this made it harder and more difficult, my feet got so swollen that I could not see my ankles. I don’t know how we made it. But we did. I am so happy were home. But I haven’t been able to do nothing at all. Cant pick up my babies or do nothing in the house, if it wasn’t for my husband I don’t know what I would do. I have noticed that if you stretch you actually feel better, thanks to my girl August 2012, she told me this. Im in so much pain and stiffness in my body still. Im now 9 days post op today. I have had other procedures and none have been this hard, I am serious, maybe is only me. I know everyone is different. I got my 3rd massage with Celia yesterday before we left, she is a sweetheart, massage still very painful, actually I learn yesterday that they get more and more painful because of the internal scarring, I didn’t know that. So not looking forward for the next 7 massages at home, found this person that comes to your house for $65.00 per massage, lymphatic and deep tissue, we will see on Monday how that goes. I want to let you ladies know that are coming to Aventura, DO NOT STAY AT THE BEST WESTERN HOTEL IN HALLENDALE BEACH, NOT GOOD. I am super happy with my 1500 ccs I got. Love my new body. I am very tired all the time, but I know this is part of cosmetic surgery and just need to be patient. I have an issue, when I was the last day at Dr Salama office everyone there said I needed to change into smaller garment, well got the large one, but it is too small, it is very tight, but the part im worried is that it might be too tight in the butt? Please if some of you ladies have gone through this let me know. I was thinking to have the xl garment bring it to seamstress and put it smaller and leave butt big. I don’t want to squeeze my big butt lol. I haven’t noticed my booty shrinking yet, probably too soon. I cant explain how happy I am with my results and with my choice of surgean, I think Dr. Salama is the best and his staff too. Everyone in there is excellent I kind of fell sad when I left. Aww I know. I will be updating a little bit later with new pics. Talk to you girls later!!

Hi ladies, well im 2 weeks today, haven’t...

Hi ladies, well im 2 weeks today, haven’t noticed any loss in volume, except for the swelling. I haven’t sat down at all after surgery except to use the bathroom. I LOVE my results I am so happy I did this and that I chose Salama. I will be posting pictures later today.

Oh and by the way, i took my xl garment to a...

Oh and by the way, i took my xl garment to a seamstress to take off the waist and legs, the large garment was too tight on my booty and we didnt want this, so now my big booty fits perfect on the garment and my little waist fits the large, will take it again next week to put it like a medium because i can alrady see the creases in the back, the dr told me when i see this, it means that garment is too big and need to be changed.

Hello beautiful ladies, I am on my 8th week now. I...

Hello beautiful ladies, I am on my 8th week now. I almost back to normal, my body still very sore and my stomach still have lumps. I'm still doing massages and I will start ultrasound very soon. I am still loving my results. I will post some new pics that I took today. Still wearing my garment and sitting in the boppy at work. Let me say that this has been the hardest recovery I had in my life. I had a boob reduction and that was a walk in the park compare to this. The lipo is the worst. But do wonders. So all the pain is worth it. Dr Salama rocks! Talk to you guys later.

At 8 weeks my measurements are waist 29 butt 44

Hi Ladies!!! It's been a while. Been busy with kids and family. Wanted to give you guys an update. My results are still awesome I can't be more happy with my booty. I am going to go thru a mini tummy tuck on September, got the date already. I am very excited and now the waiting game, I will be posting some new pics tomorrow. My measurements are the same and I think I have gained a little weight and it all goes to my butt. For real. But the dr said that would happen. Talk to you guys soon!!!! Girlas

YOU LOOK GREAT!WOW LOVE THE BUNZ SUON,LOL
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Thank you cinnamon2. We could the masseuse in a spa like 45 minutes from Where we live. I am in florida in the Orlando area. She is very good with the lymphatic massage. I am still swollen specially in the pubic area. But the butt and belly not anymore. The lady charges $60 if she goes to your home and $45 if you go to her.
cinnamon2 30 Sep 2012
It's great to hear that you're not swelling in the lipo area. I'm in Northeast Florida and was thinking about Massage Envy and the prices start at about $60 and is slightly cheaper if I buy the package, but I never thought about looking into having them come to my home until I read your review. I'll have to call around... I might not find one for $60, but it's worth the try.
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Thank you so much germainebbl581. Youre funny!
cinnamon2 30 Sep 2012
Hi newbooty, thanks for your update it's very helpful! Salama shaped you nicely. I was wondering how you found a lymphatic massuese (spelling) that comes to your house and do you still have swelling?
missmiami 30 Sep 2012
Your results look great. Feels good to know that I am not the only person with a rough recovery as I am a week post op and home with 4kids and a wonderful hubby.
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Thank you so much bettertnatoday!!
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Thank you missmiami, it is rough, I remember some days I felt like I just woke up from surgery. It's good that you have support from your hubby, that is awesome. I do too and i too have kids 3. So i understand you. Keep doing massages they help a lot and when you wake up or are stiff just stretch, this helped me a lot.
missmiami 30 Sep 2012
Yes atretching has helped. I thought something was wrong with me because i still stiff up when i lay down too long. Eapecially at night. Plus being up with the kids all day who are 8,5,3,1. So by the night time i am super swollen and have a slight fever and headache. I am gonna try to start tv yoga somtime this week
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Wow missmiami you have your hands full like me. And you need to rest your legs so that way your swollen get down. And the stiffness is crazy i Know What you mean. Yoga Will be of incredible help if you do it. I didnt do it and i Know recovery would have been a lot easier.
missmiami 30 Sep 2012
yes i hope so. since i am stuck in the house i might as well do something. will keep you posted.
newbooty 09 30 Sep 2012
Ok missmiami Let me Know How Youre progressing....
bettertnatoday 30 Sep 2012
OMG your butt looks amazing! Loving the behind view.
Nurse08 29 Sep 2012
Hi, Looking good so far. Wondering about two things. Your arms? Worth it? Do you see a difference? Also, I'm looking to have a breast reduction. But I want to have a small implant put in for shape. Any input? I'm a 34 DD now 5'4 about 150 athletic type of built.
newbooty 09 29 Sep 2012
Hi, thank you. I just posted pictures of my arms after, I don't have pics of before, but the difference is huge. I don't have any fat in my arms now and I had a lot after my babies were born. I didn't put implants when I had my breast reduction, I think with your body type and weight you will look great. And they do have a lot of shape when you add implant, I was an f size.
