Hello Beautiful ladies!! I am four weeks away from my BBL with Dr. Salama. I am 5"1 and 155lb. My BMI is 28. Iv wanted a booty my entire adult life. I've always been blessed with beautiful breast and a beautiful face but have always felt like my lower body just does not match that. I love my legs as well. When I was younger before my children, I wanted a larger booty butt loved the rest of my body. It's just that middle area that could use some help. Lmbo. I'm going to be having lipo on my upper and lower back, arms, flanks and abdomen. So far everyone I have dealt with at Salama's office has been awesome (Nancy and Zuny). I only live about an hour and 45 minutes away but my husband and I will be staying at our timeshare close to dr. Salama's office. My husband is a paramedic and has taken off a month from work to take care of me while I heal. I feel so blessed to have somebody who is in the medical field and my husband to take care of me. I am not in the least bit service. just full of excitement! I have been researching doctors for years. After much deliberation I decided on Dr. Salama. I have confidence that he will deliver the look I am after. Please send lots of prayers my way and I will continue to update throughout my journey.

Just took a look at your before pictures. You already have nice full hips and some booty to speak of. I think you're going to get amazing results.

LMBO! I know right where you're coming from. My husband tells me all day long how gorgeous I am and until I see it myself I'm not hearing a word of it.

I show my husband pictures of ass and [RS bleep] and ask him does he like them and all he says is " I like your baby". Lol.
Coming from Alaska. My husband got stationed here in 2012, we leave here in 2018. I was gonna wait till we got back to the lower 48 to have surgery but I just cant stand to look at my body anymore.

Your coming all the way from Alaska!? My husband is not in the Service but he is a paramedic fireman and is gone quite a bit. With four children and him gone often, I don't think anytime would have been good timing. I feel like the body I'm in right now is robbing me of my life. We live here in Florida and I won't be caught dead in a bathing suit at the beach. If it's going to give us back our confidence then the sooner the better.

I know its hard to find time to something for yourself when you have kids. Mine are teenagers now so Im done waiting.
So where are you staying? We are going to stay at Dolls Recovery Getaway for 10 days and then move to the Aventura Residence Inn and leave Oct. 15th.
September 4, 2016
We will be staying at the Crowne Plaza for just two nights on the 29th and the 30th. After my post op exam on Saturday we will be driving home. Home is only about an hour and 45 minutes away so we will continue to drive to the office as needed after the surgery.

I'm just going for my fist consultation on the sept 7th. Im deciding between him and dr Mendieta.
September 5, 2016
Oh I see. They were my first two choices as well. I went with Dr. Salama because I felt like he does more aggressive LIpo.

So can you let us know if the doctor prefers you to be overweight or somewhat fit? I am somewhere in the middle kindof more on the fit side. I am thinking that I should gain back the weight I lost since March before I get a BBL done.

Hello ande24393, his answer to that question for me was that he would like my BMI to be under 35. My BMI is at 28 so I think that's pretty good. I made sure to ask my BMI when I had my post op work done. I would definitely shoot to get lower than 35 simply because I've noticed results much better on women who are more around 30. Hope that helps!

I have a lot of stretch marks on my abdomen. I'm not sure if once that area is lipoid I will be left with sagging skin. I'm wondering if Dr. Salama is going to suggest a different kind of Lipo be done on my abdomen to keep the skin from sagging. The stretch marks do not bother me but sagging skin definitely will. I don't feel like I have enough on my abdomen to need a tummy tuck so I'm really hoping that won't be suggested. If anyone has any insight on the subject please let me know. The second two photos were me playing around with an app.

Sagging skin will be determine by how your skin is with elasticity and collagen in order for it to "pull back" And not sag. Compressions will help to a point , if you have loose skin now then it won't retract with Lipo. But if you don't have loose skin now than most likely the compression garment will help it retract back. The older we get the less collegan we have and elasticity. Boils done to current state of body comp now, collegan/elasticity, and compression after Lipo.

Thank you! Looks good right now so we will have to see what happens in a few months after swelling goes down and I've had the garment on for awhile.

Right now the widest part of my hips and bum are measuring at 38". Belly at 35" and arms at 12". My pictures are not posting in the order I want them to so here again is the pictures I played around with in an app. I would love to have these results. I feel like they are realistic when considering Salama's work.

What app did you use?
September 4, 2016
The app is called Beauty Plus. Love love love it! It's absolutely free and you can do so much with it. I've tried to use other apps similar in the past and they are such a pain. You can actually YouTube how to use this app.
September 4, 2016
Watch it. This app is completely addicting. I'm not one to normally take a lot of selfie's but I sat on it for almost an hour the first day I downloaded it.

September 5, 2016
The app is called beautyPlus. I will post a pic of all my supplies. I'm completely ready to get it over with and start healing! You must be so anxious being just days away. I will be sending lots of prayers your way.
