Brazilian Butt Lift: Stories

All of my life, Ive been the chubby girl until i turned 13 and went from 200 pounds to 111. I graduated high school at 17 at 125 pounds. Currently, i am 21, 5'5", and weighing in at 145 pounds, size 9. I am ok with my size, however, due to my dramatic weightloss over the years, my butt is no where to be found ! However i do have some hips and a small torso .. ive always been more bottom-heavy from the front, but sideways, was a different story. I need more booty !! Soooo .. i looked into the brazilian butt lift procedure after many attempts of going to the gym and drinking protein shakes to muscle up my butt, which didnt help much ....





Soooooooo, recently ive been researching surgeons to have this procedure with .. i was stuck between Dr. Pakeman, Dr. Lefkovits, and Dr. Francis ... Im so excited to be having my brazilian butt lift on Dec 20, 2011 with Dr. Lefvokits ... I chose him because he is willing to do more lipo of unwanted areas for a great price, as opposed to others charging almost $4000 per area (arms, thighs, legs, flanks, abdomen) ... According to my doctor, i dont have much fat .. he may only be able to inject 300 cc's into each buttock and some into the hips ... This concerns me because i am afraid i may not see a difference in size or shape :-/ ... And its general anesthesia so that freaks me out even more !! All i can do is pray that he can find as much fat as possible !! Im hoping for 900 cc per cheek, but hey, we'll see ... Ill post pics and keep you guys updated !!!Updated on 20 Dec 2011:Well guys today is the big day !!!! My surgery is in a few hpurs ... Im sooo nervous ... but im praying about it ... Ill put up the before.and after photos later on tonight and then update weekly ... Wish me.luck !Updated on 21 Dec 2011:Well yesterday was my big day. Butt is looking a little bodacious from the back, but not so much from the sides .... I think it looks good though for 380 ccs in each cheek and 100 ccs in each hip ... But who knows for how long . He lipoed my arms, thighs, whole abdomen, and flanks . Overall, i like it .. im extremely swollen though .. takes me forever to get out of bed though .. i have no idea how to post pics on here. Can someone help me out??

Hey guys . So, today is day 3 post my surgery and im still swollen and sore .. and on top of that, i just got my period yesterday :-( .... This is a christmas weekend that i will never forget .... Well, i like my results so far ... Love the front, love the back, but the side of the butt should be rounder .. however i am still swollen so thats just what it looks like for now ..... I havent been eating much .. just crackers and water ... And not sitting is becoming easier .. instead ive just been kneeling ... Lol ... Oh yea and my hips before were a 38 .. now its 41.5 inches ... And im still wearing the garment .. So ill keep you guys updated

So i am 1 week and 1 day post op .... I had my first massage and ultrasound today ... I feel a lot better, although still swollen .. i have to do about 4 more massages until the swelling goes down .. the people are telling me that i can sit whenever i want but me being paranoid, ive been standing and kneeling because you just never know ! ... And once again, i saw the doctor for like 10 seconds .... Well, my butt looks ok . Wish it were bigger but they said i have to wait for the fat cells to expand .. -_- .. dont know what to believe anymore lol

Hey ladies ! Well, its been exactly 6 weeks since i had my brazilian butt lift with Dr. Lefkovits ... I like the outcome ! However, i am looking into a second procedure to round it out more from the sideview .. most of my swelling in my lipoed areas went down, and i havent had much reabsorbption, thank God !! .... I will post pics later

So guys i am almost 3 full months post-operative .. about 15% of swelling left .... i dont like my results, i cant even sit here and lie to myself ... He didnt lipo deep enough and he didnt inject enough fat ... Im doing a second procedure June 2012 with Dr. Pakeman who was my first choice .... I should have went with my instincts .... When i went back to Dr. Pakeman's office, they even noticed that i still looked almost the same and that the job was done very sloppily ... Well, you live and you learned .... But i have faith in Dr. Pakeman ... im just hoping for the best ... Because i dont want to do this a third time !! Lol

Hey everyone ! It has been 1 year and 2 months later since my first BBL . I am now ready to repeat my BBL on April 19, 2013. The doctor did explain in the past that a 30-35% chance of fat reabsorption is possible, and i fully understand that .. BUT it is also a process that may or may not be achieved in just one shot . I have no complications, and I do see an improvement . However, i know i will achieve what I want even more this time around .. im fine with the buttocks, but now I want more HIPS ! I will post photos .... Overall, i am excited and thinking positively !! Wish me luck !!
