I went to Mia Aesthetics for a BBL on September 26th with Dr. Charepoo. So far I’m loving my results, he listened to me and came through with exactly what I wanted. I am 2 weeks PO so I understand that my body is subject to change in the next few months, but I’m very happy so far.
Mia Aesthetics was very particular about certain clearances I needed. Along with the standard medical clearance, I needed a psych evaluation clearance along with a clearance from my gastroenterologist which came in the form of an EGD. Initially I was scheduled for July 11th, but due to these additional clearances, I had to reschedule.
I do think my experience may be an anomaly due to some of the reviews. I have never had issues getting in contact with the concierge and have had all of my questions answered quite quickly.
I will say, the most important aspect of this surgery is post-op care. Last minute I opted for a recovery home and I am SO glad I did. However that along with massages increased my overall cost to around $11,000 at the end of it all.
I will continue posting updates! So far I strongly recommend Dr. Charepoo.

So I am 2 days shy of 3 weeks PO and I am such a hypochondriac. Today after taking progress pictures I noticed darkening/bruising around my right cheek incision. I went for a walk today and also noticed that my right cheek was more sore than the left. It wasn’t horrendous, just felt like a pulled muscle or a really intense workout.
I’m concerned because it showed up so suddenly for no reason. The sensation and temperature feels the same on both sides. Did anyone else have this experience?

I’m almost a year PO and I’m generally happy, however I do have a little weird… I guess fat pocket? On my right hip and it’s extremely difficult not to essentially obsess over. I really love my results, but I am a little paranoid it looks fake. Really focusing on getting my legs to match!
