I am going nuts!!! I sleep, eat, drink all related...

I am going nuts!!! I sleep, eat, drink all related to my BBL. I'm so conflicted I live in California & Dr. Hegg is highly recommened and awsome. Yet that "Salama Bootay" just wont let me rest - it keeps "popping" up in my head. I can't let it go. I would hate to regret my decision either way. However, I cannot deny the amazing testimonials I've seen from Dr. Salama patients. I am a bit worried too cuz Nancy told me to gain weight. But, I'm just a smaller sized girl. I already feel like I'm gunna explode :(

My current stats:
5'4"
134lbs (regular wt 118lbs)
Chest: 32", D cup
Waist: 29"
Hips: 38" (wide & flat..ughh)

Money is not a consideration for me with regard to deciding on a doc, as I am very blessed with a great job it's more the distance that is scaring me. I would hate to have a terrible complication & to be so far away. I would be wrought with terrible guilt if I put my family through something because of my vanity. Yet, I've want this sooo bad!!!
Please help me out felllow BBL girls specifically those that went to either doctor & how you ultimately decided. Thanks!

While I am leaning towards one of the two docs...

wnt2shineJune 20, 2012

While I am leaning towards one of the two docs above I also booked a consult with Dr. Ghavami for this July. The receptionist was a doll :) Said I had her laughing with all my 1000 questions. I first heard of him when I did a BBL search on youtube.com and then went to his site. He too seems so have awsome technique though almost no reviews on this site....:( http://www.ghavamiplasticsurgery.com/beverly-hills-plastic-surgery-video-gallery/viewvideo/19/brazilian-butt-lift/buttock-augmentation-dr-ashkan-ghavami.html

I just put up a wish pic from one of his clients on realself - Butterbean look her up. Haven't seen anymore updates though :( I just checked your profile out & you definitely have a waist & a side booty :) So, I totally think you'll achieve the look you want with no problem! I think sometimes we can be so hard on ourselves. Trust me you look great to begin with :)

o wow she does looks good!! have you seen Nini Fernandez? you NEED to see her bbl she looks amazing!! it might be abit bigger than your wishes but i'm sure salama will understand if you tell him!! awww thanks so do you!! you will look great :-) have you got quote's for both hegg and salama?

wnt2shine

June 21, 2012

Thanks babylucy88 - yes I did check her out - very nice :) ur right tho one of my concerns with Salama is that he'd give me a huge booty for my frame- while I'd be happy with a small bubble butt or anything that closely resembles the pics I posted. He contours the body so well I think that is why I keep going back to him!!! Dr. Hegg $5665 & Dr.Salama $7799. The prices keep going up for both though...I think I'm def leaning more towards Salama now

Im Team Salama in just 7 weeks. His work is excellent and the reviews show it. Either way youre going to look fantastic. You already have really nice curves. Best.

Look at my post op pics i just uploaded! So you can see what hes doing lately, wont hurt yo peek ;) maybe it'll help u make a decision, but of course am only 3 days post-op. Goid lyck!

I just did and OMG - I think I am going to go with Salama!!! I'll be following your journey too. I spoke with Nancy & they don't have any dates until Jan when I spoke to her 1 week ago probably Feb now - which was one of the reasons I was looking elsewhere. Gosh but the more I see his post-op pics I am drawn right back to him. Thanks & please take good care of yourself since your so recently out of surgery :) You look awsome!

Oh my freakin God I just booked a consult with Dr. Salama & put a deposit for Feb 17th! I am officially nuts... lol Rueben was very nice and answered lots of my questions. I will keep you all posted. Traveling so far is still a concern to me I am usually a very rational person - I sooo hope I am not making a rash decision...
