Hi All, I am a 25 year old African American female and I am scheduled for my procedure tomorrow and I am so nervous!
I'm about 5'6 and I'm 220. I have always had a nice size rear but I am having the procedure because I want more roundness and projection in my booty.
Lol If anyone has had this operation and you have a similar body type please share you experience with me. I have a before pic that I will post today as well :-)

Hi all! Surgery is over!! This is day 2 and i'm very sore and bruised. Coming out of surgery I was very incoherent. Due to the anestegia. Very important for someone to be with you the first 24 to 48 hrs as you will need help. You won't have much of an appetite but I strongly suggest making yourself eat something so you won't feel too weak. I really don't need the pain meds but I do take them to sleep. I took my compression garment off just to peek at my body, and even though I'm swollen my stomach and waist are much flattter and my booty is bigger!! I will definately post b4 and after pics very soon. I'm already a little tired of laying on my stomach but 6 weeks to go. The countdown begins.

When did you get your surgery?
April 25, 2011
I will go for my post op appt on 4/27 and thats when I will find out how many cc's they were able to inject into my butt. I will say that the first few days are definately the hardest. It's like in your mind you feel normal but your body aches like hell! Lol. The biggest change I have noticed so far is that my stomach and back fat is gone! And my booty is definately plump. Im just ready to get back to normal so I can see final results.
April 25, 2011
Girl, I'm still waiting on my belly to go down, and girl,i dont think they did the fat under my bra strap!!! its like why would lipo the love handles and not the back area??!!! its okay because i need that fat for my touch up round lmao, i need but butt bigger ;-(. girl congrats cant wait to see your pics! and do allow yourself the full 3-6 months for final results, becuase it will be four weeks for me this friday and im still swollen.
April 25, 2011
But ur booty looks good? R u sitting yet? Can u tell a difference with how your clothes fit?
April 25, 2011
Yes, my butt looks way better because it was flat! lol I sit when i need to drive or go somewhere, at home i still lay on my side and tummy. I went out and bought some really cute outfits, because i also had a breast reduction on feb 9th, so now i can fit the cute shirts without my [RS bleep] busting open the buttons, and when i put on tights with a long fitted shirt, my butt looks really cute and round, i just want more volume, i better not lose anymore!
April 26, 2011
I can feel you on that. As soon as I get pics I will definately share with you. So are you going to get this procedure done again?
April 26, 2011
Yes, they forgot to take off the back fat anyway, so i might as well use that as a excuse!!naw, i want my butt more fuller and rounder, so i do plan to get a second procedure, although i wish this could have been done in one session. wat about you? you tranferred a lot of ccs so you should be good!
April 26, 2011
As of now everything looks good. I'm
Jus hoping it stays that way. I would b one mad person to have to spend the money and time to do it again. But definately if ur not satisfied u should make it right

How did your appointment go girlie? Did they tell you ccs? I'm always curious to know what different docs put. Hope everything is well, talk to ya soon!
April 29, 2011
Hi girl2! My appt went good and he was able to put in about 2300 cc's which breaks down to about 1200 cc's per cheek. Even though I'm swollen my shape is 10 times better than what it used to look like, and my butt sticks out a lot more too.
May 2, 2011
Yes, with that many cc's your looking good girl, i only had 500 per cheek and i can tell the difference, if i had that much i would be good, lol put up pics when u get a chance
May 2, 2011
Yes my doc did me right! My booty is looking nice and plump. I can't wait till the swelling goes down so I can really see the final results. As of now I'm am satisfied with my results.
May 2, 2011
Shake it girl! lol I'm glad it worked out, try not to sit for a while because i believe that works. i have saved majority of my fat, so far. i believe the sweeling in my butt is gone at this point, i can shake it..so im sure its gone lmao
May 3, 2011
I haven't sat on my butt so far I go back to wrk this following Monday so I'm jus a little worried about trying to sit, are you sitting yet? If so was it easy to drive?
May 3, 2011
Yes, I sit now. It will be five weeks on Friday. I still sit only on soft surfaces, when I drive I sit on a pillow. You will be fine, try not to put too much pressure when u sit, so you dont lose that much volume. it already goes down because it is swollen, but when it does it looks a lot better anyway,just try to sit up on your thigh area.it sucks, but hey. also girl some people sit right away so dont trip, i think u will be just fine.
May 3, 2011
Thanks for the advice girlie! Now I don't feel so paranoid. I'll b posting pics soon so b on the lookout.

Congratulations on your surgery Orlando! I officially made one month post op yesterday. I was also very sore and bruised after surgery, and to my surprise, didn't need any pain meds. I didn't have an appetite a week after surgery too, but my mom made sure I put something in my stomach. I drank a lot of water too, that's really important. I also noticed an immediate difference in my shape...I have curves and a flatter stomach!
April 25, 2011
I'm so happy for you! So when did u start to sit or are you sitting yet? Who was your doctor, and do you have pics?
April 27, 2011
I started sitting 12 days later because I am a secretary and my job requires me to sit most of the time. However, I sat kind of funny -- I would put the pressure on the back of my thighs and had my but kind of lifted in the air as much as I could. I would get up periodically and walk around.
My doc was Dr. Taranow in NYC.
I don't have b4 pics, my doc does, I can probably get those from him. I just took two pics last night on my cell and will try to put them up today.
I am still swollen in my belly and lower back, but girl I can tell I am going to have a "SHELF" - hoping that it drops though since my buttocks are flatter at the bottom.

I went for my post op today and my doctor was able to put over 2300 cc's into my butt!! That breaks down to about 1200 cc's per cheek. I have about a week
and a half to go before I go back to wrk so eventually I'm going to have to practice sitting without really sitting lol. So far the results are definately showing with the lipo, big difference from my before pictures! So I will post pics soon as well. Was it hard for you to drive at first?

Wow he put a lot in your butt, my doct put 750cc's in each cheek for me and he said I had left over, I wonder why didn't he just put the rest in, LOL. It wasn't really hard for me to drive after the first week, maybe cuz I really didn't go far. I can't wait to see your after pics.
THis week I will be 6 weeks post op.

Yes he was able to put a lot in. Before the operation he asked me if I wanted to go as large as possible and I told him Hell Yeah lol. I also took him some pics to give him an idea of what I wanted. I definately can see the difference too!! I'm 11 days out today and i'm still swollen in my stomach and back areas but I still look much better than B4, as soon as I can I will post some pics.

Orlando7193April 26, 2011
Hi All!! So this is day 5 and I'm feeling almost back to normal. I still have a drain in my back so hopefully when I go to my post op tomorrow they will take it out. Otherwise, I'm walking better and I stopped taking the pain meds cause I don't need them anymore. I'm still swollen and the one thing that's a little irritating is this compression garment. As the days went by it's loosened up a little so hopefully the swelling is going down. I finally have my appetite back. I can't eat a lot, but at least I can satify my hunger without feeling like I want to puke. Lol So I will put up another update tomorrow and maybe a pic to show my progress.
Good luck today! Hope everything goes well. :)
