I'm scheduled to have surgery next month. I've...
I'm feeling real fat right now.
I don't know sisters but is it me or do you just not care as much as you normally do when you know your getting surgery. I know typically I will have to pay for it in the gym. But it's showing everywhere including my arms. This has also been the longest time I've been away from the gym.
I need to call Dr. Salzhauer about my weight compared to my wish pics. Do any of you ladies know if you work on your core prior to surgery and your waist line will it help with your results after surgery?
Well I plan on having my sis take photos of me today. I want to give back especially to real self community for helping me make my decision.
I hope my review will help you. My surgery is next month. It will be here around the corner and I'm flying in from Cali.
Before pics
When she found out I was going to do the surgery she said she wanted only a tt and her husband was okay with her butt. I sad what butt?
I took a pic of her side profile and I said where is your butt? She wants a bbl too and now she will be going with me through this journey.
She thinks I'm going to have a fat ass when I'm done because I weigh almost 10 lbs more than her and were both same height and similar body shapes except her boobs are larger than mine.
Here are my before pics.
I'm also posting a pic of a pillow I seen at the baby store yesterday. You can twist it and turn it like a snake and it's supposed to support your hips, tummy etc. I wonder if this will work? It's pretty firm too. Not too hard but firm enough.
Provider Review
Doctor Salzauer completed both a tummy tuck and brazilian butt lift at same time. I was quoted lipo of the abdomen, arms, flanks and upper and lower back. I do have fat I can pull off my upper arms and upper back. Recovery was very dificult for me. I hope I don't have to go through this again to achieve my desired result. I wanted a full bubble perky butt just like my wish pic. You can see my July 8th review update including most recent pictures. Overall Dr. Salzhauer really cares about his patients and staff. I can tell he wants the very best for all that work in his office and stands behind his work. I haven't had the opportunity to send current pictures into the office. There may have been some miscommunication with exactly what I wanted but I did send over my wish pics and said this is what I wanted and I was told he would be able to do that for me. For many of you who are also contemplating doing both surgeries. Please keep in mind because it wasn't explained to me prior to surgery that they will not do lipo of your abdomen for a bbl if your having a tummy tuck. So if you were like me and my sister banking on our stomach fat to get you bootylicous think again and I would recommend talking to the doctor specifically. Overall Miami is a nice place to do surgery to get a way from kids to recover. However, it can be very expensive. Please consider flights, hotel/private condo stay, food and transporation costs on top of your quote. Not to mention costs for lab work. You may have a co-pay like me you have to meet anually before your PPO Insurance picks it up or maybe you won't. There will be several perscriptions needed to buy and most of the items the girls list on here that you will need. You can do without. Only buy what you need. Well realself sisters I told you in the beginning I was going to keepitreal.com and I wasn't going to disapear like many other sistas that have come and gone. I hope you all find my review helpful in all the time I spent keeping this up giving back to the community. I will keep you updated on my results. I'm sad to say I hope I don't have to do this again but I just cannot see how my boodie is goin to fill out and round out. I'm currently at 150 lbs by the way and 5'5. I'm not sure if it's because I chose to do both the tummy tuck and bbl at same time that I didn't get the fullness, roundness or projection I wanted. After surgery 2 weeks this was one of my concerns. It did drop however there is a slight difference in roundness. I don't have that bubble I've been dreaming about for soooo long. I really hope that my results change for the better. Bedside manner- Didn't see doctor after I woke up from surgery or talk to him. Answered any questions- In a timely manner. After care and follow up- I will rate 5 stars so far. However, its been a few weeks since I talked to him. Time spent with me- Well he's a very busy doctor so when he comes out of the OR to do the post op visits he is limited on time visiting several patients at once. Wait Time- Well even though I had two follow up visits after my surgery it was kind of rushed with 3 people in the room while I had no closthes on. Very limited one on one quality time with doctor. Phone or email responsiveness- I'm rating the doctor 5 stars he responded to my questions or concerns if not right away as soon as he was available. Staff professionalism and courtesy- He has a good team that works for him. Although my Patient Care coordinator did not respond to a couple of my calls after leaving messages this is the reason for my four stars. Payment process- Five stars this was pretty simple. I just did credit card authorization via fax. Wait time- Well our first post op visit we waited an hour and a half before we got to see the doctor. The second visit was much better.
