Not Sure What Doctor to Choose

Hey ladies. I have been considering doing mostly...

Hey ladies. I have been considering doing mostly lipo, but since I don't want to waste the fat, and to make my shape more contour I figure I would just go with doing the BBL.

I am coming from New York. So unfortunately, since there are no lipo/BBL doctors here that does work up to my liking, I plan to travel.

I am scheduled with Dr. Salama for next year, but for some reason something a bout him doesn't sit right with me. I feel like he is taking on too many patients, and his work is starting to become a little iffy to me. I feel Dr. Salama's work was just AMAZING when he first became popular. I was looking at him before he became popular, but I didn't see enough of his work. Another thing that I dislike about Dr. Salama's office is that I was not allowed to talk to him personally. Plus, he seems to have a high rate of reabsorption. He's not looking at quality, but quantity. IMO. Please correct me if I am wrong without attacking me.

I have been looking at Dr. Jimerson and Dr. Salzhauer. I really liked BrickhouseNY results from Dr. Salzhauer. She looked very natural and that is what I am looking for, but when I see girls who go to Dr. Jimerson, they look great as well.

I have consulted with Dr. Jimerson before, and when I tried to get a new consultation it seems like they never respond back to me for some reason. So I discarded him. Another thing that concerns me a bout Dr. Jimerson, is the way he injects fat into the booty and hips. I am concerned that it may leave scars on the buttcheek and hips. Can any of the ladies who have went to Dr. J tell me this for sure? Where are the incisions located, because they seem to be located on the buttcheek and the hips and can leave visible scars.

I consulted with Dr. Salz before too, and I did not like the attitude of one of his patient coordinators Arianny. Plus at the time he was quoting me 10k, and he stopped doing BBLs at one point. I am reconsidering him again.

I have heard good, and bad reviews from all three doctors. That just comes with the territory.

Dr. Salama is the most affordable doctor, because Dr. J and Salzhauer are way expensive, but my gut is telling me not to go with him. Shape is the most important thing to me, then the booty but I still don't want to be coming out with a square booty.

Ladies, please help me decide. :)

I was reading a few post from other women earlier...

I was reading a few post from other women earlier today, and many of them have mentioned the importance when not choosing price when it comes to doing this.
Price should not be an issue. At first, my entire thought process was based on results and price. First are the results good? Secondly whats the price? But now that I have decided to stay in here and do the surgery, the price is not much of a factor. I do feel like if you are paying not so much and end up going back for more rounds, ultimately you are paying more money in the long run. I have also started to compile a list of questions.

Does anyone know how long Dr. Jimerson's quote stand for, because I would rather go next year, but I no longer want to go late next year, but I don't want to go early. I might keep it the same though.

I have spoke to Dr. J a few years ago, and I decided not to go with him. But I am reconsidering again. We spoke on the phone for long time too. I hope he can give me the same time this time around. If I am happy with my phone consult with Dr. J. See Ya Dr. Salama. Also, even though I have to travel it doesn't take as long to get to Georgia, and for some reason, I don't have a funny feeling a bout him like I do with Salama.

Since my surgery is scheduled into a later date...

Since my surgery is scheduled into a later date next year, should I wait and see if Salama improves his skill and attitude or should I just forget a bout him?
I was viewing some pictures of his patients and I was very impressed, BUT that went all the way back to June. Its September now and he is just not doing it. Should I give him a little bit of time to improve or should I keep it moving?

No more excuses
No more attitude towards wish pictures
No more broken communication

Will these things ever change with Salama?

Has anyone financed this surgery?

I have not scheduled a consult with Dr. J but I...

I have not scheduled a consult with Dr. J but I hear he is going up as well so I plan to send pictures and schedule a consult this week. As far as what I am looking for, shape is first and booty is second to me. I am currently gathering a list of questions to ask Dr. J. I hope he doesn't quote me too much.

Does anyone know the minimum I can put down for Dr. J?

I am still booked and scheduled with Dr. S, but does anyone know if I should take it as a loss or anyway I can get my deposit back because he's just not cutting it for me anymore. I'm locked in at the 6799 rate, but his work has taken a nose dive dramatically.

My third choice is Dr. Salz.

Great review?

First things first all the pictures on this website are fake he has his staff put them up and post fake reviews ever wonder why there are only pictures on the table. He has extend your arms in the air so the butt look bigger and ur stomach looks flatter, the pictures from before and after patients are from two different patients. Wants only cash payment because you will never see your money again if not satisfied or if you change your mind. He will have you waiting for over 12 hours and if you want to leave you cant because he has you full amount in cash. He cannot shape a butt and he is not certified. You are never happy with results and he never takes responsibility all he wants is money and for you to spend more and more his consultations are scams he is a good talker he preys on minorites. none of his staff are certified nurses and will quote you a crazy price because they receive commision. The reason you are not put to sleep is becasue they will take away his medical license. You are in extreme pain when you are awake and afterwards. This medical prodecure when you are asleep not local anesthesia. There is no anesthisialogist. It is dirty in an office and not sanitary. We need to stick together and be honest with each other all these post are fake he has his staff do them spread the word this is our body we need to help each other he is a liar a scammer who just wants money you will never get the body you want he will charge you for touch ups

Im going with Dr shahine in ny. I already booked and I think his results are really good. Maybe you should look into him. I just don't want to travel so far

Well Dr Azurin is not popular here but I have see a lot of pics on his own page bodyandbreast.com
RitFat13 24 Sep 2012
Have u try Dr Azurin? His prices are not bad he don't use drains like Dr Salama. His not popular here but he does great booties also. Give him a look :)
GoldenCaramel 24 Sep 2012
I have heard of him. I thought Dr. Salama does you drains, and requires you to wear them for 8 days. Also, I have heard of Dr. Azurin. I am not seeing enough of his work though. :/ If I see more of his work I will definitely go with him if I like what I see.
RitFat13 28 Sep 2012
Yes Dr. Salama does drains but not Azurin. My bbl is very soon but in going with Dr Lacerna is a she. My quote $6k I had to say by to Salama bc I think the same as u and Dr Azurin staff told me to do a tt but I'm not looking for that yet so I also run away fri him. Lol girl take ur time I know I will choose the right 1 4 u hugs and good luck. By the way just in case u need more info of my Dr. Please let me know she's very close to my house ;)
GoldenCaramel 29 Sep 2012
I have never heard of your doctor before. I am always open to getting info on new doctors. Did you have a deposit already with Dr. Salama? Unfortunately, I did.
RitFat13 29 Sep 2012
No I don't wow if u do I have hear here that they don't refund ur deposit but I think you can look for a RS sis here that wanna go with him and ask her if she want ur date. She pays her deposit and you get refunded. Well I think u need to tal with Nancy about it that's what I hear by other RS sis. Good luck Hun ;)
