Posted 29 Sep 2011


I am 21 years old. I live in Ma and I hate my shape. I have a smaller bottom than the top and no hips with 36ddd breasts. This can really mess with my self esteem at times but most of the time I dress it up and hide it, until summer rolls around, whew! anyways I did soooooooooooooo much research online about this brazillian butt lift thing almost unbelievable that you could transfer fat from your own body one place to the next.



I started researching doctors in the Florida area, somewhere where something like this is cheaper because Ma is waaaaay too expensive. I came across an excellent reviews and I loved the pictures online but there was of course one particular behind I saw that I wanted redone ON ME! lol So I emailed them and set up a consult hoping I could catch a promo before it ended, and I did! yayy! Of course they were backed up due to all of the inquiries they receive but I was able to get in and get an appt late Dec. And cant wait to keep you girlies posted, because I sure appreciate the girlies who did so on here!



I will definitely add before photos about 2 weeks before the surgery, dont want them to just be sitting up here all this time. lol

Just made the complete payment for the rest of my procedure which is $1000 down payment for Dr.Salzhauer. I'm super excited, wish i lived in the area to visit beforehand but unfortunately traveling all the way from north i have to wait until i land where I set up a consultation with him a day before. The deposit is totally included in the price so that will be money deducted from my entire procedure which makes me feel better when I'm looking at a lower remaining balance.



The next steps and concerns of my journey are to start the process of my surgical clearance that I need before I leave and blood work that can not be done before 30 days prior to surgery date which i will also explain in detail when it begins. I've already spoken to my primary care office about it and they are happy for me in my next step to hopefully feeling and actually being more confident. I am going to start shopping for garments and surgery items in a few weeks as well, just a little curious if anyone knows



WHAT SIZE FAJAS GARMENTS SHOULD I PURCHASE?

SEEING I NEED TWO, I WILL BE SMALL RIGHT AWAY AND THEN ONE FOR AFTER THE SWELLING...

how do i make sure i buy the right sizes in that brand?



LIST OF ITEMS/POST SURGERY



1) 2 "FAJAS" GARMENTS (heard they were really good and all the girlies on here seem to be going on about them)



2) BABY-WIPES (for defecation 'bowel movement')



3) FUNNEL (urinating)



4) MULTIVITAMINS (for recovery which ive already started taking in preparing my body for the healing process and strength)



5) BOPPY PILLOW (sitting of course and ease on the pressure of the extremely delicate transferred fat cells)



6) BODY PILLOW (i guess this item is for the comfort and ease of the pain and sleeping on your stomach and sides constantly right after surgery



7) TANK TOPS (i heard these are comfortable to wear under the garment and protect the delicacy of your soft skin lol)



8) KNEE PADS (i was told gatorade has knee pads and can be purchased at walmart



ALL OF THESE ITEMS CAN BE PURCHASED AT WALMART IF I AM CORRECT EXCEPT FOR FAJAS GARMENTS

THANX TO ONE OF THE LADIES ON THIS SITE FOR HELPING ME MAKE THIS LIST, VERY INSIGHTFUL AND APPRECIATIVE OF THAT



Side note: The ratings i applied to the review are only phone and email based, i have not visited the facilities yet to rate otherwise, but so far those standards have been met and are excellent. I will still be posting before photos at the end of this NOV so make not so you can see beginning and ending results. I'll probably have to postpone surgery until mid JAN instead of the original date of late DEC, if so I'll update the review for the process of doing that as well, until then I am excited and hopefully didn't leave anything out.

New Update... Date changed from the 28th to the 21st so I will be going into surgery a lot sooner than expected. Yikes! Now the day seems super closer...

Updated on 29 Nov 2011:
Since i haven't lost the amount of fat desired for the procedure, i had a month to lose 15 to 20 pounds with a strict diet, but including the cheating lol I've only lost 5 for the month. although they said to me i only needed to lose 5 to be at my correct BMI, the surgical center has informed me they're only able to remove 4-5 liters of fat which is weighed in volume not pounds but rumor saids it is about 8 to 11 pounds and i'm rescheduling to lost a little bit more and become as close to the A shape (Beyonce's or Kim Kardashian's shape) as possible before going into the entire procedure.

This would be good for other women like me who assume they can get lipo and all of their back rolls will magically disappear and they will have a tight back and a flat stomach immediately after. LIKE NO HUNNIES! THATS ONLY ABOUT TWO SHIRT SIZES OFF! HELL NO I NEED TO BE IN SHAPE AFTER I SPEND ALL OF THIS MONEY! LOL. I was worried about this decision effecting the size of my ending results for my butt, but then i said to myself, i'd rather have a beautiful and tight shape altogether as much as possible than still be too voluptuous with a big ol butt when the patient coordinator told me i can get in shape and still achieve a large buttocks SINCE I STAND AT 5'7 195 now.

So hopefully, although my excitement has gone down very much knowing i'm rescheduling, I know I will be proud of my improved figure and even more excited once it becomes closer to adding the hips and the butt.

Speaking of hips, I've been paying attention to the work of other doctors such as Pantoja and Campos and if you women want hips all you need to do is ask, I've added FG to the hips at Bal Harbor to give me that perfect ghetto booty and curvy shape. (SERIOUSLY, DO YOU REALLY THINK A HUGE ASS IS GOING TO LOOK REAL WITHOUT HIPS? NO MATTER HOW MUCH OF AN ILLUSION HE CREATES?) i've been also looking at video vixens online with the closest shape to mine to be realistic about the outcome, and I'll be going shortly to a local retail store to get my measurements so i can talk to the patient coordinator about what i need to do in order to get my desired measurements and see if they are even obtainable.

SO I CAN BE REALISTIC ABOUT MY RESULTS AND THE UNIQUENESS OF MY OWN BODY AND SHAPE!

Other than that, so far i've started my pre-op but it will be pushed back.

i've gotten a GIFT for referring a patient to them, my best friend who is also flying out a month from now, and i've received a personalized and beautifully crafted pre-op packet in the mail from the center, (mainly instructions) no products inside.

And I'm still eating correctly, taking my vitamins, and working toward a better shape for better results.

OH AND PLEASE BE PATIENT AND CONSIDERATE ABOUT MY PERSONAL BODY PHOTOS, I AM ONLY DOING THIS FOR OTHER WOMEN LIKE MYSELF, MORE IMPROVED BEFORE PICS COMING AFTER I LOSE MORE WEIGHT.

SURGERY DATE WILL BE MOVED TO BEG JAN

AND PRICE WENT UP DUE TO ADDING EXTRA WORK

Hello Chocolata,

LatinaHermosa 4 Oct 2011
ChocolataHunny and RockStarEnt,

I too will be having a BBL from Dr. S on Dec. 15, 2011. I'd love to chat w/you ladies some more. I'm coming from Chicago and am super excited as well as nervous. I look forward to talking to you soon and sharing our experiences of this amazing, life-changing journey!
RockStarEnt 4 Oct 2011
Hey Latina, wow you are only five days before me? Yes we most definitely have to stay in touch. Do you have all your travel and hotel arrangements together? I'll b there from the 19-26 Dec. Im going to message you with my direct email. I would love to hear more about you experience so far.
Chocolata Hunny 17 Nov 2011

Chocolata Hunny 2 Oct 2011
I know I'm mad excited! I can't wait! I even got a little too imaginative and put a towel in my sweatpants, but it looked ridiculous. Lol I'm making my payments and still looking out for reviews though. And eating well so I can shed a couple of pounds. :) stay in touch with me
Cheeks 3 Oct 2011

bootymama 3 Oct 2011

Cheeks 4 Oct 2011
Hi bootymama I am doin well thank u. The first 4 nights seem to be the hardest for me due to all the soreness but I was able to manage by finding different ways to comfort myself. How is everything goin wit u?

Good luck with your up coming procedure. Just a thought: if you are traveling from out of state, start preparation to purchase items needed weekly. They can add up quickly trust me I'm feeling it now!!!
Chocolata Hunny 4 Oct 2011
@cheeks ok congrats on ur procedure and hope your healing well, and i hope your happy with ur results! @latina congrats to u as well, yes i am after you and ms rock... i will be staying not too far from the center private message me so i can share the both of you girlies with my email info as well @ highsprings private message me as well so we can discuss some of the items needed, did u order a faja garment as well?
A.McKenzie 4 Nov 2011
Hey ladies! I have also booked with dr.s in december (12/8) I will be staying at the daddy o hotel, its like 2 mins away..I hope I get to meet you guys!
Chocolata Hunny 5 Nov 2011
i heard that hotel is super expensive though, i called them and it was true, i would have loved to stay there they looked nice online
A.McKenzie 6 Nov 2011
it is expensive, but alot of hotels in the area are expensive. Even the marriott 20 mins away starts at 125/night, if you have an upcoming surgery and did not book your hotel early or know of anyone who works at a hotel. You will be paying $$
76 Love Joy 18 Nov 2011
how many cc's did u get in each?
Black Betty Boop 18 Nov 2011
Hey! Best wishes on your procedure. You and I are having our procedures very close in date. We should keep in touch!
Chocolata Hunny 19 Nov 2011
these are just my wish pics love and yes betty we should definitely, please PM me so i can forward over info
Lisbeth4182 27 Nov 2011
Hey girl I'm confused ur 21 and I am also but how is it that ur paying for this whole procedure? Do they work with u and allow u to make monthly payments or do you have to pay in full?
A.McKenzie 27 Nov 2011
I am using credit cards and my hubby is paying for half or else my lil 22yo self wouldnt be able to afford it either. But I do know that the amount csn be paid monthly until 2 weeks before sx, which is when the remaining balance is due.
Chocolata Hunny 29 Nov 2011
@Lisbeth4182 um how am i paying? in full, cash, but the money is a gift from my parents. but yes thats correct, you can work something out with them upon how you pay, but like anything your making payments on, with Bal Harbor you have to have your balance paid in full two weeks before.
Jools0310 29 Nov 2011
good luck keep me updated xx
newbootypls 29 Nov 2011
thanks for putting up before pics its always helpful to see others body shapes so that way you know what doctors are working with and if results can be the same for you I think your results are gonna be even better now sice you are working hard on your before shape you cant lose now keep us posted
slushpuppy 30 Nov 2011
i respect the fact the u want to be in better health before the surgery. Most girls are forgetting what this surgery is about. It is suppose to be on someone who is in ideal shape. It doesnt make sense to have surgery then lose weight. I know some of these women are doing this because they are too lazy to exercise. I also have some weight to lose. I only plan on losing about 20 lbs. Nothing is wrong with being thick, but I wanna be thick and sexier. I think u are doing they best thing. My goal is to lose 7 lbs before 2012. I have my sx in June but I wanna give myself time to enjoy my weight loss. I wanna do lipo to improve my shape.
Chocolata Hunny 5 Dec 2011
@slushpuppy you couldnt even get this procedure if you were too lazy to exercise because state law is they can only take out 4 liters of fat anyways and theyre already putting the fat back in the buttocks right after so whats the difference? your shape? lol if you go in big, you'll come out big... point blank period, theres nothing wrong with the aggressive lipo, ppl need to tighten up their skin on their own, you know. i have to lose 7 pounds as well by early jan so trust me i know girl! but good luck and ill be in touch
slushpuppy 7 Dec 2011
I feel u.Nothing is wrong with aggresive lipo. I actually prefer that. I would be pissed if a doc only takes out a little fat. lol. I guess we will be on this weight loss journey 2getha, even if it is 7 pounds! :)
shortnruff 8 Dec 2011
you look so good girl!wow!!i dont have the same shape as u.im about 5ft i want to achieve a very curvy,sexy look.you look amazing!!may need to chk this doctor out
