PERMANENT DISCOLORATION
$12,850
I finally talked to Kim at Dr. J's. The paperwork you're given before surgery says (not verbatim) if you are exposed to excess sun you could experience discoloration at lipo sites. It is winter time. I have stayed indoors most all days and have not wore a bikini outside at all. YET... I am told the dark discoloration on my bikini line and the large lumps under them will be permanent and that Kim has the same problems. :( UGH!!!!!!! How disgusting!!!! My butt is shrinking of course. Expected, but so sad. :(

Out of my Garment for Two Days
YIKES!!! After my eight week mark, I thought I'd try going without my garment as I've read so many ladies on here do. WRONG MOVE!! I swelled up like a Good Year blimp!!! Once I got my suit back on, it was SO TIGHT!!!! Just like it was after surgery!! Needless to say, I am back in it 23 hours a day!! Ugh!! I emailed my Patient Coordinator again yesterday after seeing that she hasn't even opened the last two emails I sent over 40 days again. :( We'll see if she answers this one. Not going to hold my breath.

I can't believe that Jimerson allows such unprofessionalism in his aftercare!!! I think they're to busy trying to become reality TV stars.
Have you tried putting a maxi pad or some sort of cushioning under the garment strap on your shoulder? I've seen a lot of girls use maxi pads under the garment to cushion uncomfortable areas.
I use socks, abdominal pads, large padded bandaids..anything I can get my hands on!! On the day of my surgery, they were actually filming again! Glad for them being so popular and trying to make a dime, but wish I would have went with Dr. Salzhauer now. He even answered the front desk phone when I made my very first call, gave me his cell number to send pics to and video chatted with me!!! You live and you learn. How are you doing???
Be a Plastic Surgeon or be Hollywood, when the aftercare of your patients is sacrificed it's time to make a choice. I can't imagine that this man is not aware of the poor customer service and follow up by HIS staff...I really wanted to go to him too, I wanted to recover at home and not travel but after reading comment after comment in regards to his lack of follow up it saddens me.
I'm doing great doll :) thanks for asking. Anxiously awaiting this sx I just want it to be over!! Lol.
I live in ATL too and wanted to have the surgery with him but the aftercare you are reveiving is a total turnoff!
The key is to do you research for several months!! Find the right doctor for YOU!!! :) Good luck!!!!!
Do your research sister....find a doctor who really care of you and not running after fame and bling bling....research is the key......
I got a lot of useful tips in your review! You look great!
Thanks Sugar!
I been wanting to go to salama or j curves but I haven't been able to decide if you were to do it over again would you still go with j curves and if not who would you go with also how do you feel about your results now

The pain in my bum is finally starting to get a little better!!! It is still there, but MUCH BETTER!!! My lower back still hurts horribly, but I'm managing. The powernet or whatever it's called that the garment is made of makes it hurt worse. I got back into the small after I had a seamstress elongate the shoulders, enlarge the butt out area and cut off the bottom of the knees. It still cuts into and leaves horrible bruised indents in my shoulders but no where near as bad. I have on a the small zipped up/hook and eye closure waist "cincher" under my garment. I'm hoping it will help with the pain from the garment. I can barely move!! lol. Sleeping at night is also getting MUCH BETTER!! YAY!!!!!

I think you look great!! =D Glad it's getting better for you!
Thank you so much!!
Glad you're getting some rest. Are you sleeping on your butt yet? What kind of garment are you wearing? When I was home i put socks under the shoulder straps. looks silly but helps.
yes, I was finally able to lay on my back for a few minutes (maybe hours) at night. It was WONDERFUL!!!!!! I do put socks under the straps, too!!! Thanks for the suggestion!! :)
Hello. I had bbl with Jimmerson and am about 10 months post op with Dr. J. "Most" people retain 30-50% to what was injected. It will continue to change and drop up to a year. You will more than likely loose volume so try to stay off it as much as possible. Same case with me. I still don't lay on my butt nor sit on hard surfaces for long periods of time. It is now completely soft and I feel almost no pressure if I do lay on my back momentarily so that's an indication that I'm "almost" completely healed. I'm considering round two now with the hopes of getting the final results I wanted. Also injecting in the hips is just injecting the sides of the butt cheeks which make the hips "look" fuller and the butt wider from the back view. I had mine done and as my butt dropped the hips went away but luckilly I had a little of my own but the butt looks nice and round at the bottom from the back. I absolutely loved my results at about 3 months but about 6 months it went to like and now it's ok. I don't regret having prodedure as there is improvement in my overall look and I believe my results are realistic. Drs want you to believe that what you have at 2-3 months are your final results and that's soooo not true for most people from what I experienced or heard from other people who are at the 1yr mark. Congrats and good luck on retaining the fat. You look great :-)
