Butt was HUGE afterwards but turned out great. I'm 3 weeks out and very satisfied with the results.

First 2 days are the hardest.

First day is the hardest. I was pretty out of it couldn't stand, walk, anything. My butt was HUGE and waist was little. I was bruised with really dark purple bruises from under my armpits to below my butt cheeks.

Day 1 & 2 were the hardest, it was hard to get up ... hard to sleep... everything but pain medication helped

Around Day 3 my body became HUGE all the lipo areas looked really bloated and I started to get discouraged. I was able to move around a little easier. At night my compression garment (like a tight one piece) would get so tight it felt hard to breath (to remedy I bought a slightly larger one to sleep in at night)

After the first week things became a lotttt easier. I could walk and move around. My butt and hips were still huge at this point I loved the way I looked it was bigger than what I expected but I liked it.

After week two my butt went down considerably and begin to look more normal. Sleeping is still very uncomfortable. I stopped taking pain pills. I was pretty much able to do anything. My doctor told me to only avoid sitting for two weeks. However, from reviews I read I went a head and set out for 3 weeks.

After week 3, I LOVE my results.. I would have liked a bigger more "shelf" like booty. But I'm 5'7 and weighed 136 lbs. the day of my surgery. My doctor said he would have liked me to weigh closer to 150 lbs. but I just could not gain the weight.

I will continue to sit on a pillow for 2-3 more weeks and try to avoid sitting for long periods of time and on hard surfaces. From what I read where you are at, at 3 weeks is pretty much where you'll stay.

Hope all of this helps.

By the way. I had 800 cc's in each butt cheek. He did lipo on everything front and back from above my butt and panty line to below my boobs and armpits.

Hello All.

Sorry it took me so long to post more picture. I am now 8 months out and everything is great. I'm actually gearing up to have a breast augmentation this coming Tuesday. I'm so excited.

I posted a comment recently. In case you missed it. My booty is doing good. I haven't lost anything since 6 weeks after my surgery.

I had gained about 10 lbs and then loss 15 lbs. I went up to 145 and now I'm back comfortably at 130 lbs. my booty adjusted accordingly....

Current measurements are 31-27-41.

Thanks for posting this. Your notes say you spent $4,200 in "Sacrament" California, do you mean "Sacramento" California?

I looked up Dr. Hegg and found Stanley Hegg in San Leandro, California, is this the doctor you went to?

I live in Sacramento and can't find a doctor that has much experience in BBL. All of them have experience with Lipo, but I want a doctor who knows how to mold a nice booty out of my fat. I really hope it was Dr. Hegg in San Leandro that you went to, because I was visiting his site and his pictures look good, plus he has before and after pictures of a woman who had the surgery done four years ago and she still has her butt!!!
BBLange 22 Feb 2011
Hello.

Yes. Dr. Hegg in San Leandro... he was great... I had a cousin who went and hers was 3500. His rates are REALLY reasonable. He did a really good job.

I was able to come back home the same day (I laid in the backseat of the car)

And had a follow up 2 days later...
Rocklin9008 22 Feb 2011
I've been researching Dr. Hegg online and I'm happy to finally find someone who went to him. I hope you keep us all updated on your progress.

How much fat did you get in each cheek if you don't mind me asking? I'm 5'5 and 160lbs, I'm hoping for a big one =)

Thanks for the info. We've added a link to the doctor and corrected the location typo. :)

vajayjay 22 Feb 2011
Do u knoe how many ccd he injected i each cheek
BBLange 22 Feb 2011
800 cc's
BBLange 22 Feb 2011
sorry i mistyped 600 cc's
Fresno440 23 Feb 2011
Hey you look amazing!! I was wondering where he even found the fat to put on your butt because u look really tiny...plus it lookd like u had a pretty good butt before...on the areas that he lipo-ed did it leave loose skin? Thanks in advance :)
BBLange 23 Feb 2011
I gained like 7 pounds after the before pictures and before the surgery. I had some loose skin already because I just had a baby and it was really wrinkly from the pregnancy.

The skin actually is tighter now and looks 10x better.

He did lipo onf the following areas front: above my vagina to below my breasts.... And back: above my butt crack to below my armpits (sides included)

Also with the recovery after day 3 I was able to take care of my 8 month old by myself. So its not that bad.

WOW!!! U LOOK AMAZING! I am so jealous. I want to get this procedure done too later this year but was looking around for the right doctor. So how do u feel now. Did the results last?
Fresno440 23 Feb 2011
Wow you look amazing i cant believe you have an 8 month old!! I cant even believe u looked even remotely as good as you did before the surgery after having a baby! Thanks so much for responding so quick i wish i could talk to someone all about it before i do it im going to go to dr. hegg im just hearing horror stories about the pain and being awake during it so its kinda freaking me out lol but if i looked like u afterward it would so b worth it!
BBLange 23 Feb 2011
If you want I can message you my number and I can tell you about it start to finish
Fresno440 24 Feb 2011
That would be so cool if you could! I had a nightmare about having the surgery last night which made me decide i didnt want to do it this morning lol but maybe its not so bad idk...im not really sure how to privately message people or anything because i just joined not too long ago but if you wouldnt mind i would really really appreciate if you could tell me what to expect :) thanks again
amanda23 3 Oct 2011

i love your booty i been wanting this for so long can you message me info for this dotor i would love for him to do me a booty like that

BBLange 24 Feb 2011
I spoke with my dr. this morning. He actually put 1000 cc's per butt cheek.

Alot, of mine went into filling in those horrible dents I had before.
yanaie pop 26 Feb 2011
Do you mind if i ask you some more questions, privately, through email?
BBLange 26 Feb 2011

Not at all.....

Jasmine 27 Feb 2011

Thank you

Hi hun you look bootylious!!! You really look awesome. I too will be getting the butt lift in a few weeks. I was wondering about why it was important for you to weigh 150? I'm 5'7 and 170 my doctor says he will lipo my stomach, love handles,back and inner thigh. I think i have a pretty nice frame to be able to have a pretty big butt, put i'm more concerned about my hips because they are very square shaped have you noticed an improvement in that area?
BBLange 2 Mar 2011
Yes. I was verrrrryyy square before... I have updated some new hip pictures... so you can see... I didn't have my thighs done... but he wanted me to way more because at 136 lbs. he was concerned I'd barely have enough fat to make a difference
BBLange 2 Mar 2011
The last pic is a diagram I used to instruct my dr.

I was a V / Square shape before

I told him I wanted to be round...

and that's what he did
BBLange 2 Mar 2011
I strongly encourage everyone to either use the diagram I posted above to show your dr. what you want or take before and after's of BBL's that you like and show him what you want.

That's what I did.
Pretty Jax Princess 2 Mar 2011
Girl you are looking stunning! I'm happy for you! Nothing feels better than looking damn good and knowing it! I'm 29 with four kids (all by c-section) and they have change my body so much!!! This is my first plastic surgery I figured I will get the frame I want and then move to the breast. I will be a work in progress! Thanks so much for your feedback. I will be taking the chart to my PS. I will keep you posted.
asop8890 6 Mar 2011
You look sooo good!!! Isn't it amazing???!!! Can't wait for my 3 week mark. I'm only 9 days past surgery now but so excited at what I see. My husband loves it too and is always making comments about my new body. I already tried on my swimsuit and a pair of pants and it's super cool to see myself in a new way..the way i've always wanted!
