Disappointed with my BBL - Augusta, GA

I've always wanted a butt! A year ago, I started wearing butt pads. I started dieting and exercising and lost about 40 lbs. In Jan. 2015, I decided to do some research on dr.'s who perform BBLs in my area. I finally decided on one and during consultation, I guess he was so focused on telling me all of the positives, he forgot to mention that it's possible that the surgery wouldn't be successful. surgery was scheduled for Feb. 2015. I was nervous & excited. The first week, my butt was huge (1200 cc in each cheek). Very quickly, I noticed my butt dwindling, I didn't panic because the dr told me that I could lose 15-30% of fat graph. Well now I'm 9 weeks in and my butt don't look much different from before the surgery. Needless to say, I went thru a depression!!!! I cried, I was angry and I cried some more. The doctor was very apologetic and offered a retouch for free but I would have to pay office fees (about $4000). Needless to say, I am back to wearing butt pads! I must say, I am satisfied with the lipo. Feeling frustrated!!!

I am sorry you feel that way, I initially was gonna go to Dr. Ewart bc he is closer to me and I've heard he was good. Im located in NC and the Drs hear charge between 10-14,000 for a bbl. Then there is a dr here in Greensboro that charges 6,000 but his butts are not as projected as I want it and some of his lipo in the after pics looks like how it did in the before. So i chose to travel to Florida to get my BBL from Dr. Ortega who charges 4300 but his butts aren't that projected. So I did more research and found Dr. Fisher @ Vanity Cosmetics and he is oh so good!! My appt isn't set in stone just yet but it will be in a couple of weeks. He makes sure you are satisfied once you leave his office. He has a special now bbl starting at $4900 including 12 lipo areas 1 garment and more.

What did you doctor tell you? For that kind of money you should've liked your results. I'm going thru the same thing :(

Second surgery!!

Well I went back to Dr. Ewart in G.A. and I am very satisfied. I had the surgery in Dec. 2015. So I'm over a year in and I feel great. Wish I had gotten the implants the first time, it would've saved a lot of $$$ and heartache.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did he charge for the second visit? He did my BBL a year ago and I want to go for a second round as well.
