WORTH IT$3,400
my outcome was good,and i feel blessed for that, my experience that i had was a life lesson in itself, it taught me alot about speaking up for myself, and being more thoughtful on how i go about doing things.i will hope anyone who is about to have this surgery will learn from my experience, sometimes someone has to have a rough time,in order for the next person to have a easier time after them,and thats how i see it point blank,
so this is why i have no regrets and i hope thru my experience which was a rough one, there can be changes made, and that the girls on here will know what to look out for. i guess the moral of my whole situation, is speak up for your self, there is always a way to get what u need,and there is always a way to do it politely and without offending. and if your best (polite) efforts are dismissed, make sure u bring an extra voice with u.
i love my overall results, and i think as far as skills go yily did a great job, but my experience with her was so hurried, i dont have a real opinion of her so i cant really tell u much as far as that goes
see link for part 1 of review. my 4 star rating is based on skill only.

sorry i didint update at the 1 mo mark, but its all good. i alot of the hardness has gone away, and there is just a bit of swelling left, (i think the swelling comes and goes for up to 6 months) i swelled up something terrible b4 my period, like my whole body. probably because the surg caused me to miss my friend last month. everything is healed fine so far, and most of the hard areas are gone ,just a little left on my lower back. i think it will be gone in another 3-4 weeks based on the fact that it is half the thickness it was.make sure to take care of your sides and make sure there is no bunching very early in surgery, the dent i got on the side is from where the drain was around my waist, its just now going away. i thought it was going to be there a long time. so ladies if u are having surg, make sure use the pads.
i am sick of the garment, but im hanging in there. i actually take it off, then my body is like "oh no u dont" so i have to put it right back on again.i wear padding in the front and the back, and i kinda think is funny cause i look like i did post op, i was at the park the other day, and the padding was coming out of the bottom of my shirt. i didint know at first, but there was alot of people there so i felt kinda akward, but whatever, not like i even kno the people there. my legs went down a whole freakin lot, i was a little tight that yily took so much of my legs, but now i like em, only because my thick thighs looked good in clothes, but when i see my post op pics, i realized why she did what she did. i didint really plan on ever wearing a bikini or anything like that, and now im happy because i can now. i think thick is beautiful in my opinion,thats why i wanted to keep em, but when i see the overall vision she had, everything blends together well.i usually care too much what people think, n wonder if im being critisized about my body, im starting to get to the point where i just dont effin care anymore.i am pretty much satisfied, n im bout to get a bikini lol... i found a site with full coverage bottoms,the bathing suits are so freakin cute.and there is something for every shape. hope this helps

She made 3 incisions on ur butt right? Like lower back nd under cheeks??
April 20, 2013
yeah, 2 marks for where she lipoed the back of my thighs, lower back is where she put the drain.(and i think she put the fat in where the drain was) she marked me and did fat transfer in the area between my hip and butt to fill in the dent i spoke of earlier in my blog when i was pre op, u can see in the pic exactly where she put the fat,cause it kinda pops. i didint notice much of a diffrence at first but i am going on the shape and visuals from here on out. so thats why i am more satisfied than before.
April 21, 2013
Oh yeah i keep forgetting she did thigh lipo on u. Now at first u said she sucked so much off ur thick thighs tht after she ws done thy pretty much were straight up nd down. But u like em now right? Did she jus take from the back? Or the inner nd sides as well?? Im tryna imagine wht thy look like. Lol.Im considering back thigh lipo bv the ladies tht get it butts look way bigger thn those tht dnt. Do u think.it added to how big ur butt appears??
April 21, 2013
it DEFINETELY added to the SHAPE of my butt , it appears much bigger, but measurement wise its not,so thats why im more focused on the visual and overall look. thats why i said i now understand yilys whole vision and why she chose my thighs over my arms. i was originally so ticked because i love tops and sometimes i cant wear something just because of my arms, and all ladies know that its easier to have to turn down a pair of jeans cause there is always more n the same size,and jeans are jeans. and dresses always fit. but when it comes to tops, people always dog the ones in my size.*freakin breaks my heart ;-( lol * with my arms thinner i could pretty much wear anything i wanted. i did this for me and my love for clothes and looking good in em.i cant wait till my swelling goes away so i can go buy new stuff
and yes she took alot from the back n belly,and sides, the underarms the area around the breast and in between em, so i wont have fat hanging round my bra.(gave her extra stars for that ) i do like my thighs now, and they are still big. i just freaked out because i feel thats what people who havent seen me in awhile notice, and where i notice peoples eyes are going when they look at me. but i think i took it the wrong way,and i dont even think they were looking at my thighs, but maybe my hips. (i think thighs are the next big thing so i would compare my reaction right after surgery to finding out someone sucked all the fat out of your butt, when u only wanted shaping.) i did lose some weight post op and wasnt concerned because i needed my arms to match my body, and my butt didint seem affected at all.but for girls who have had full bbl and arent genetically predisposed to gaining weight in the butt,i hear they say u have to maintain weight . . when i get my arms done i might gain about 10 (in muscle) to get the butt to where i want it. i dont want to up my body weight in fat because i feel lipo can trick u into thinking u are healthier than u are because u are slimmer.plus my bmi was a bit high so right now im working on my inside with cardio, and later i want to gain some muscle. i started to follow buffy the body on utube because she has a 45 inch butt but she was able to change her body compsition 10% body fat without losing any inches on her butt and thats what i want to look like. her channel is bootynomics.

Thnx candyapple. Idk wht im gonna do. Ik i want these arms goneeeeeee ....but i wldnt mind sum inner nd back thigh lipo. Gss she will tell me wht she thinks is best. Thnx again i appreciatw tht indepth answer.
April 21, 2013
No need to rush it, u can always go back if anything, and if u leave one area out it would probably be easier to stay here to get it done. Plus I'm sure yily did a better job on my legs than most of the docs where I live would have. Arms are pretty easy in comparison

It's getting so nice outside where I'm at, I went to the park I got in a good walk,And talked to my daughter. I think I got in some good circulation, and I feel so much better. I love the feeling of having sun on my skin, and air in my lungs. After all the recouping i needed it. Can't wait till summer,there is something bout the sun that heals, and makes u feel so much better. Well this is what worked for me today.And walking really helped my thighs too. Gosh imma sleep so hard tonite. Lol

Is tht ur butt in ur avi?? Looks good if it is. Happy healing babe
April 9, 2013
Thanks,It's me. I'm gonna post the rest of the pics wearing the same jeans when I'm 1 month post op for a few days, i took lots more pics of how im wearing my garment also because I get inboxed questions about it (which i will only show per req because it shows too much, and I don't wanna offend) im healing ok,a lot of the hard tissue in my back went down, just waiting for the hard tissue to go away in my tummy, then I think I will be able to see what my permanent waist size will be. I'm learning a lot of ways to deal, so things have been good so far. I hope all is well with you also
April 9, 2013
