Hi BodyFor2013, I had my surgery w/ Dr. Hegg in Sep. I started a review and I'm hoping to find time to update everyone this weekened. I wanted to comment on the time it takes the newly grafted fat to stabilize. I also heard 8 weeks, but that was not the case for me. It was more like 12 weeks for me, and even recently I have noticed a decrease in size. Everyone's body will respond differently, I guess I'm one of the unfortunate ones. Don't get me wrong, my butt looks a lot better than what I had, but let's just say I celebrated waaaaay too early. I would say it decreased in size by 50% over the last4 months. I was like you, I avoided taking measurements because I knew it would decrease, but didn't expect to lose as much as I did.
Hi bootyless, yes there is a wonderful trick! You can still relax without sacrificing your newly grafted booty. If you have an ottoman, that works best for this trick. Position the ottoman about 2 feet in front of the couch. Basically the gap is where your booty will hang. Position your upper body liw on the couch, let your booty hang in the gap, and support your lower body on the ottoman at the joint of your legs. It's hard to explain but you'll find your comfort spot. Just make sure you're low enough on the couch that there's no pressure on the upper booty, and your ottoman is far enough hat it's not touching the lower booty. I watched hours of TV in this position and was quite content. Hope this helps!!
I'm pretty happy with the way he sculpted my waist. He added some fat to my hips which improved my overall shape. Now I have some curves! It's not drastic, but I was a pencil before so I'm very happy. I'll post pics tomorrow. I'm so sorry for the delay!
I promise photos will be up as soon as I feel human again. I'm a little concerned that I'm still nauseous as its been a week since the surgery. I think it might be that my garment is too small. I ordered a bigger size via overnight shipping yesterday so I'm just waiting for that to arrive. Have you had your consultation with Dr. Hegg? You might be OK if you just want a slight enhancement of volume like me. He put 500 cc's in each cheek. Right now I do feel too big, which is a good thing because it will go down. He was afraid I'd be disappointed, but so far I'm very happy with the result. My shape has definitely improved which was a big thing for me. Going into surgery at 117 pounds, I was realistic about how the amount of cc's. 500 was the exact number I had in mind.
