BBL in April - San Leandro, CA

  • 8 Feb 2012

Going in for my BBL and lipo to my abs, flanks, and inner thighs. I'm also considering a lip fat transfer while Im out with the IV as well. Always wanted a fuller lips and booty. :D Super excited and nervous.

I'll add my pre-op pics soon. Right now Im just going to try and get everything together that I need way beforehand so I dont have to worry about it too close to the date. Any suggestions on what is critical to buy would be helpful.

I am 5 days post op. wow what a recovery it has been. The first 3 days are comparable to hell but it does get better after that. Showered for the first time yesterday and that was hard. I don't kno what I would have done or how I would have gotten thru this without my bf helpin me every step of the way. You really need someone to look after you for 4 days. It's crucial.

I was so loopy after the surgery. They gave me Gatorade and I swear it was the best thing I ever had in that moment. My bf said I yelled real loud when they put me in the wheelchair. It felt like I had two solid rocks in my butt. Dr hegg came in the room and I said somethn like " dr. Hegg didya give me a big ol butt" haha

That's all for now.

Great review?

Hi BayAreaGurl, I am looking forward to my BBL surgery with Dr. Hegg but I didn't know you can also get fat injected into your lips... I need that SERIOUSLY bad can you tell me how it went and if your lips are still plumbed?

Hi Bayarea gurl!  Curious, how are your lips looking now, can you post an updated pic?

 

Your shape is AMAZING.  You have perfect curves now and your stomach does look toned.

 

I'm so happy for you!

I have my bbl with Hegg on Wednesday.... So nervous. How ur lips look now?
bayarea_gurl 4 May 2012
Your gonna do great! My lips have gone down a bit. Still way plumper then before. Doc said that it's just hard to know how much fat will keep. Won't know till like another month. It's worth it if it does keep tho.
bayarea_gurl 3 May 2012
Thanks girl! I kno my angles ;)

Hey there! Lookn like a greek goddess over here!

I do have a little still but it's mostly skin just wear your garment for as long as you can. I don't think you will have any muffin top by the way your shape looks.
bayarea_gurl 1 May 2012
Thanks girl. The stomach waviness you can only see in person up close. I have faith it will all be amazing I just have to be patient. Which is always hard since we want instant results.
butterbean 1 May 2012
You look great and will be so happy right around your 3rd month. The swelling goes down so much!
bayarea_gurl 1 May 2012
Did u see much of a difference in your flank area go down from 2 weeks out to a couple of months? That's the area I'm a lil worried about since it doesn't seem that he liked as much in that area as much as the stomach. So when I put certain underwear on I still get the muffin top.
butterbean 30 Apr 2012
Do you have any recent pics you can put ip so i can see what you mean?
Baycakes 24 Apr 2012
My surgery in 2 weeks man I hope I can handle it well and I hope I get an ass I kept insisting on huge n he looked at me like I'm crazy lol
Baycakes 24 Apr 2012
How u like ur shape? Did u get what u wanted/expected ur lips look amazing
bayarea_gurl 24 Apr 2012
Thanks girl. Doc says my lips will go down more. It's hard to kno the outcome of how much fat will stay in the lips. My shape is awesome. Too early on to really see what I'll look like since I'm so swollen. Can't wait for that to go down. Could b another 2 weeks before that happens

Wow your lips look awesome!

Did you have your surgery already?!!!!! Let us know how are you doing please!!

bayarea_gurl 10 Apr 2012
It went fine. Had my EKG and it turned out normal. Basically just got to really tell the Doc what I want with shape and projection. I really recommend to anyone doing this to really think about it and know exactly the shape and how much projection you really want. Brought him pics to show just that. I cant believe its only 1 week away! So excited/nervous...but really ready for the results. Cant wait to update with pics :D

Baycakes 2 Apr 2012
