Hi all, I'm actually writing this on my tummy in my hospital bed. It hasn't even been 24 hrs yet. I went in for bbl surgery yesterday around 1:30 pm and was out of surgery around 9pm. I am so sore and I've had lipo b4 about 3 yrs ago...my oh my I must say big difference in pain! Everyone is different and the dr said I had a lot of scare tissue so maybe that's why I'm so sore.

I will say that I could not imagine going home the same day of surgery, you definitely need round the clock nurse care!! I feel like I need to stay for 2 or 3 days. I do not have any pros or cons as of yet it's just way to early. I will up date once I start to feel better. I'm hoping for a speedy recovery.

My Dr. is very caring and patient he actually called me while I was writing the review to check up on me :) He also gave me his cell phone number to call him anytime I need to. I will keep you guys updated.

Well I'm 4weeks out today and I started sitting yay!!!!! My bootay looking real good :)) it settled some it's not so high up it's rounding out and projecting more. I will say it is very painful (for me) to sit, everyone is different but I am happy to be sitting. I will post be 4 and after pics once I feel my butt is where it's gonna stay, the body goes through so many changes during lipo and bbl that anything sooner would be a waste of time ( my opinion). If there is anyone else who experienced pain the first few time they sat please let me know. Thanx ladies I will keep you posted!

11 weeks post-op feeling great and looking better. I will say my lower back where the indent is (the most lipo'd area) is still very sore. when I stay in any one position too long it hurts like heck when I move. The most pain I experience is in the morning getting out of bed....OMGOODNESS it feels like my skin is separating from the tissue in my back. I'm assuming it's due the the aggressive lipo in that area, I hope this feeling goes away soon. I find that wearing my spanx helps keep the skin on my back tight and in place so it feels a lil better, like an idiot i threw away my binder to early. If anyone else hes experience this pain in the lower back where the "shelf" have be created please let me know when this pain will go away. Other than that I'm very happy with my body! :))

Thanks for sharing your BBL experience so far. Are you feeling any better today?

ladeebuggmitts 23 Feb 2011
Yes I'm feeling much better. They say beauty is pain and I was in plenty of it yesterday. But again feeling much better today :)
teewillie 24 Feb 2011
Hey girl so you had it done....yay for you! How many cc's did he put in each cheek and how long did he say you had to stay in Baltimore? Hope you feel better soon!!!
ladeebuggmitts 24 Feb 2011
Yes I had it done and I must say I was very uncomfortable the first 24 hrs. I got it done on the 21st and I will be leaving tomorrow the 25th. He put 740cc each cheek, due to excessive scare tissue from previous lipo that's all he was able to save. I'm content with that and I hope I heal nicely. I stayed at Northwest hospital which is where he works out of. The hospital is BEAUTIFUL with the exception of one nurse in the recovery room. I didn't want to leave lol.
As of today I'm feeling pretty good drinking lots of water and vitamin water. Only time will tell the out come. I did see the Dr. yesterday morning in his office and he removed my garment (ooochh) but I can already see very nice conture in my waist, my "booty" as Dr. M called it lol is just huge and swollen no real shape to it yet. I will say that this is the last cosmetic procedure i'm doing cuz I can't take the pain....no way! I will keep you posted on my progress. :)
teewillie 24 Feb 2011
Ok well take care of urself and remember don't sit for at least 3 or 4 weeks so you can try and save as much fat as you can....well hope you have a speedy recovery and post pics as soon as your looking and feeling better!!!!
teewillie 27 Feb 2011
Hey Hun just checking in to see how ur doing!!!! I hope healing, and resting and staying off that butt...lol I just wanted to ask you also or anyone else who has gone to dr. M how did you finance ur procedure? I got behind on 2 credit cards and they went into collections but I just pd. them off with my taxes but I'm not sure if my credit score will be half way descent by this time next year so don't know if I would get financed...I don't have anything else on my credit report but my car note so I'm willing to put about $5000 down and finance the balance if possible. Thanks and take care...
Serena_M 28 Feb 2011
Hi Girl I hope u feel urself better. I got the same procedure done on feb 25th the same dr, the same hospital...
ladeebuggmitts 28 Feb 2011
Really??! Wow, well how are you feeling and how much was he able to put in? By the way I'm feeling a lot better and today makes a week, A lot of my swelling went down but there is still some. I'm starting to take a very nice "Kim K" shape...lol hope ur feeling ok :)
Serena_M 28 Feb 2011
Omg first two days were horrible(( today is my 4th day after surgery I feel much better I can move around slowly and pull myself up from the bed but my husband helps me to go to bed. I sleep a lot tho))) Tomorrow is my first post op visit to my doctor and I will find out how much did he suck out of me and put in. Right now I'm still swollen and can see only Kim K hips lol)) I hope her butt will appear later on when my swollen stomach and back go down)))
Pretty Jax Princess 10 Mar 2011
ladeebuggmi, How are you feeling doll? I hope better and looking foxy! I wanted to know how your hips look now ... I too want my PS to round my hip area he is guessing on injected 800 cc per cheek do you think this will be enough I too am looking to have the roundness in my rump like kim k, but I want hips too. any advice I'm having it done 4/6/11
ladeebuggmitts 11 Mar 2011
Hi, thanx for checking on me :) I'm doing great I'm going into my 3rd week yay!!! Yes I'm still looking foxy lol but I have lost some volume and the dr says I will continue to loose over the next 2 months :(( that REALLY bothers me because if I loose at the rate I'm going there will be nothing left! But I will keep an open mind I have read so many times that the end result is the six month where everything pops out and rounds out. I had 740 cc each cheek and I have very nice cures at the moment not so much Kim K anymore but still very nice considering I had NO hips, so 800 should do just fine. The advice I will give is don't expect to look look anyone else keep an open mind everyone's body is different. I'm speaking for myself, I am happy so far. If I stay the way I am now or very close to then I would be a very happy person.....but the whole 2 more months thing scares the crap outta me! I'm not gonna sit til after 4 weeks I'm resting A LOT drinking plenty water and taking plenty vitamins...I feel like I'm being very cautious...if I loose it ALL I guess it was not meant to be and a whole $15,500 will be lost....oh boy I'm stressed now :(
sunnytx83 11 Mar 2011
Hi, I'm thinking about having a BBL and I have a consult wit Dr. Markmann. How do you feel about your results so far? I'm so afraid to spend so much money and be unhappy with the results. Dr. Markmann has some great before and after pics but do you find it worth it so far?
ladeebuggmitts 11 Mar 2011
Hi, Sunnytx83....well so far I'm happy I had surgery on 2/21/11 I'm almost 3 weeks out. I have very NICE cures that were not there b4 lol. Dr. Markmann put 740 cc's each cheek. I will say he is a sweetie! The only thing that is bothering me is the fact that the dr said I will continue to loose volume for the next 2 months! If I stay the way I am now or very close to then I will be happy and say it's worth it. If not I will be VERY unhappy! Like you said the pics on his website are AMAZING and that's what sold me.... I refuse to believe that I will be the only one who looses ALL the fat, Of course all of his pics are not posted but I still believe he is an expert at what he does. I wish you well with the consult he is really great and takes time to explain everything. Keep an open mind and yes it is very pricey but you get what you pay for....hey if I loose it all maybe it wasn't meant to be, I still would say he's a great Dr :) But so far I'm looking great girl! Good luck :)
sunnytx83 12 Mar 2011
I am praying you get the look u want because I need some hope going into this. I did notice that all The after pics on Dr. M website were taken 3 months post op. I've been keeping up with Dr. M as well as other PS and I must say Dr. M after pics is what I want to look like. I dunno, keep me posted and if possible i'd like to see some before and after pics. Take care.
Pretty Jax Princess 11 Mar 2011
Awww I'm sorry to hear that I hope everything stays the same.. I heard what you look like at 3 wks is pretty much how your gonna look... What about your lipo area's with the swelling gone down how does things look... I would love to see pictures..if you don't mind sharing thru private mail... Let me know if its ok I can send you my email address thru private mail
Serena_M 11 Mar 2011
sunnytx83 I had BBL couple days later than ladeebuggmi )) Dr. Markmann is a great surgeon and I like his care after surgery - I get my check up appointments every week! Butt looks good and areas after lipo look good as well. Love my flat stomach. I experience the same as ladeebuggmi - I keep loosing volume of my butt cheeks but I don't think that I will loose it all tho... Even if I won't get big bobble butt at the end as I wanted I won't be THAT upset cause at least I didn't waste my fat after lipo and gave it a shot. By the way the price of my surgery without BBL would be just 5G cheaper so I decided go with BBL. I had lipo on my stomach, bra rolls, love handles, arms, outer and inner tights. So far I like the result.
sunnytx83 15 Mar 2011
Baltimore65....thnx for putting me at ease about Dr. M, how r u feeling about your decision to have a BBL?
Serena_M 15 Mar 2011
Its kinda early to judge cause I ll see the final result only in 3 month. I like the way it looks now - the shape and the volume. I just wish I had more fat to put in((( So If u don't really have a lot of fat on ur stomach - u should grow it, girl. Anyway Dr M will sack it off))
Pretty Jax Princess 21 Mar 2011
Now that's a BBL!!!! Girl you got enough butt for all us!!! Everybody wondering where their absorbed fat went... Clearly it went to you LMBO!
ladeebuggmitts 21 Mar 2011
ROTFL!!!! Thanx you girl I hope it stays. I'm still swollen in the lipo areas so I have a ways to go. But I am soooooooo happy to be able to sit now! I will say Dr. Markmann did a GREAT job! I will post more pics soon.
sunnytx83 22 Mar 2011
Ladeebuggmi...thnx for the pic. I was patiently waiting with my fingers crossed. You look great!!! Im curious where he took the fat from because looking at your before pics you look like a small girl N. E ways Im so happy for you. WORK IT!!!!
ladeebuggmitts 22 Mar 2011
Thanx sunny. In the b4 pic I was about 130lbs. Date of surgery I weighted 140lbs. Dr Markmann is a pro at bbl and he took every bit of fat out of me as he safely could. I had other consults and was told I only had 200cc's to give. Dr Markmann put 740 each cheek!

ladeebuggmitts 22 Mar 2011
I'm 5'4
