So I am just going over the pre-op instructions I recieved from my coordinator and pricing labs. She told me that I need to come to Vanity the day before my surgery for my pre-op clearance. Is there an additional pre-op that I must have done by my PCP? or will Vanity take care of that once i get there?

You can do labs within 30-days of surgery in your home state and send the results to Vanity. Or you can do labs at Vanity a day before surgery (if your labs are abnormal or hemo/iron is low...you will have to reschedule surgery). I did labs 90-days in advance....my iron was low....worked on my iron. Did labs again 30-days before surgery. Lab pricing?

yes to see how much it would cost for the tests? Is there a physical that i need to have my doctor to perform or some paper work?

People with a medical problem(s) might require a clearance letter from their doctor. When you send Vanity your medical questionnaire, they will let you know if you need a medical clearance letter. People over 40 need an EKG test. No specific physical. Lab test: CMP, CBC w/diff, HCG (preg test), HIV, PT/PTT/INR, and U/A. Labs can be taken at www.walkinlab.com (check to see if your state is excluded before paying).

Are you nervous ?

No, not at all. Not exactly sure what size butt I am going to ask for. I don't want a Nicki Minaj...but since I am going to lose some volume... I don't want to start too small. I want to still fit my current pant size (12). I want to be able to wear jeans off the rack (non stretch..like Levi's), I don't want to be limited to wearing spandex /stretchy stuff. So no, not nervous about the pain, just concerned about results. Check my page, I have had multiple surgeries that have turned out a hot mess. Are you nervous?

So my surgery date is fast approaching June 12th, which puts me at 90 days away! I am so nervous because I have nothing prepared. I dont have a RH, I dont have a travel buddy, I haven't bought planes tickets. I did get 2 fajas but I am unsure of where to even get started. I dont think I am going to be prepared for the big day!

You'll be fine. Now is the time to get started. Check the calendar for a buddy. Start buying supplies. Keep reading reviews. Have you had your iron/hemo tested? Surgery calendar: http://www.realself.com/forum/calendar-for-upcoming-surgeries

I have had them done recently, they were good. I have gotten a few things but I don't want to be excessive so I don't know whats really essential. I don't see anyone on the surgery calendar who is going to Florida, everyone seems to be team DR. Thanks for all of the advice!

Don't worry love you'll be ready, you have plenty of time left. Go on Amazon and grab your supplies it takes no more than a week for the items to arrive. My date is May 19 and I still don't have everything ... I'm trying to budget everything out ; this bbl is very expensive :/. I'm just trying to mentally and emotionally get my self ready for this procedure. & as far as rh I'm staying with Kayla im sure you heard about her but she said she's booking fast and I've previously spoke to Magdalena and she's booking up fast as well so that may wanna be your nxt thing to focus on. But I wish you luck and positive thinking.

Kayla only has room for four days but I sm booked with her, Monie also has a slot but she wants $1200 and I don't have thst kind of money but some people gave Kayla really bad reviews . When did you buy your plane ticket ? I don't know if it's too soon or not
User Avatar
March 16, 2015
I don't think it's to soon to but your ticket, it will cost more the closer to your travel date. I purchased mine in feb & maybe you could stay with kayla for 4 days and get a hotel for the remaining days or ask kayla to refer you to somebody. There is also Magdalena rh.

I have found a colleague of Kayla's Maida...who I may stay with if I can bump my surgery date up. I am hoping to bump it up to that tueday the 9th, arriving in Miami that Monday, I am waiting to hear back from Vanity then I will book my flight . I was looking over the preop instructions and labs. I am really confused....do we need to get a pre-op clearance done from our PCP as well as Vanity? or is it one or the other? I know the labs are required but I am referring to the actual exam portion I guess?

I'm about one month b4 you and I had exactly the same frustrations as you ...sometimes still have :) Flight tickets: Don't know how it works for you but I went to Momondo.com to find them. They have statistics tells you when the price typically is the lowest. And what about the PS office - can't they help you with RH? About supplies I started to ignore the very long lists on RS cz it just stressed me. Find out what's included from your PS (e.g. Salama includes 2 fajas). Concentrate on finding a RH and ask them about supplies - lots of RHs includes parts of it. I'm going to check in 1 day pre op and hope to find the time to buy the last supplies with help from the RH staff. Don't worry hun, I'm sure you'll be ready :)

Okay this is my life and I have to live it...after much debate with myself and no one to support me period I have decided to go this alone. I am scared but after being trapped in a 250 lb pound body then working my sweat and tears to get down to 165-170 I want the body I know I deserve. No one understands why i want to look like a "video hoe" as they say so I am looking for a partner to take this journey with me. Any takers?

wish you the best grl! I will follow your journey we are about the same schedule and can cry out the recovery pain together :-) Are you also having a TT? Many srg advised me to have a TT in an open question to the board but I'll wait.

I am going to talk to my coordinator today about a tummy tuck because I don't plan on doing this twice ! Are you going to vanity as well ?
User Avatar
February 27, 2015
I'm going to Salama, Miami, FL. Yes that's a good idea - I think there's F & A's doing TT together with the BBL. I have some loose skin and I know that Salama sometimes advice you to quit lipo the ab, because you'll come out with even more loose skin. If you have the TT with the BBL you'll have all the benefits from the lipo so to speak.

I spoke with my coordinator today she said vanity will not do a TT at the same time as a BBL and I would have to come back a few weeks later for the BBL....I am bummed about that
