So Happy About It!

After doing research on BBL doctors, I chose Dr. Franco. His staff is super nice and personable! I set the procedure right after my consultation. I'm almost two weeks out and I already love the results. He did a great job and my body looks ridiculous (in a good way =P). So happy I did my surgery with Dr. Franco and his team. My only critique is that I didn't feel very prepared for recovery. It would have been nice to get some information in my packet before surgery about items that would make recovery easier, what I should eat during recovery, what to expect after surgery, etc... I had to do my own research for that. No big deal, just would have been another step even more over and above than they already went. Couldn't be more happy with the results!

Thanks for the tip!! How much cc of fat was transferred? Your results look great!

I had the same feeling with him .
At least you are happy with your surgery. I am not , I had 200cc fat transfer. I don't mind no butt but I am up sad that liposuction turned out ugly . He said because I don't have enough fat . Then he should not have performed on me as professional.
I like he's personality but end of the day that is not what I paid for it .

I've noticed some slight reduction in my thigh swelling but my calves and cankles are still going strong. I definitely don't think I should have done the inner thigh lipo. There is just not enough difference. Maybe that will change as the swelling goes down.

Swelling will go down in6-8weeks then you will see difference. Long as it's even you are good .
I have surgery done by him 5months ago and my butt is all gone and my lipo looks uneven and ripples on my stomach.. Very sad , I was looking better before ... So I have to look for revision. Give it time , long as you are even you will heal beautifully....
I am still swelling in some areas.

5 days since surgery...

So I got out of surgery Monday afternoon and it is Friday evening. This has been the most painful thing I've ever done. For the last four days I really wasn't sure if all of the pain was worth it. But today, I put on a tight dress and it looks AMAZING. I am so blown away from my results. Planning on posting a picture in the next few days.

I added inner thigh lipo to my BBL procedure and I'm not sure if I should have. My legs are so swollen and purple. It is very uncomfortable and not fun to see. I am pretty sure my thighs are bigger than my waist at the moment. The cankle struggle is real. As soon as the swelling goes away I believe my healing will be smooth sailing. Wish i purchased compression leggings before so I guess I'll just suffer.

Pictures to come!
