I've been using a vibrating massager on the hard...
WORTH IT$6,900
I've been using a vibrating massager on the hard parts of my butt every other day for 5 mins on each cheek and it is softening up. The big hard spots are breaking down into little round lumps which you press into the skin. From outside, you cant tell that there are lumps. I prob have fat necrosis or scar tissue, but I will give in another 2 months and continue using the vibrating massager before I contact Dr.Salama.
Even though my butt is not completely healed and I am having to deal with these hard parts, I am still very happy with my result. My overall contour is still beautiful and my butt looks nice, full and round in jeans and dresses. Please be realistic with your goals ladies and prepared for any complications/imperfections that may arise. My left cheek is slightyly bigger than my right and my right has a little dent from where the fat didnt take, I assume. However, I am still happy and pleased. All Im praying for right now is for my buttocks to be completely soft.
And yes, it does jiggle nicely when I want it to. I can make it bounce beautifully, up/down & side/side especially on all 4s ;)))
It claps and right cheek left cheek as well :P Will post more pics next week once I hit the 4 months mark.

Sorry it's been a while since I've been on here...
Sorry it's been a while since I've been on here but I've been so occupied w/work I haven't had a chance to update.
At 5 weeks post op, I decided to rub some Arnica gel on my butt so see if it would help with the swelling. I had no problems until day 3 where I developed redness, tenderness, a warming sensation and itching. I went to another plastic surgeon to have it looked at and she performed a butt biopsy immediately to make sure it was not any puss and it was not an infection. I knew it wasnt an infection because I had no fever and the symptoms occurred only after I had applied the Arnica gel there. I took zyrtec and applied prescription cortisone to the area and was okay after a week. Attached a pic so you can see.
I am now at week 12. I absolutely love my body and what Dr.Salama has done. The only problem I have right now is that 1/2 of my left cheek is still hard and 1/3 of my right cheek is hard. When I sit for 20 minutes of more, my butt would conform to a flatten shape where I sat on it. But once I am off my butt and laying down, it goes back to its full shape. Im hoping that it is just scar tissue and not fat necrosis but I will give it a few more months and see. Lipo'd areas are still a little hard. Swelling of the pubic area finally went down at about 8 weeks. Attached a few pics.
TO ANY VETERAN BBL LADIES READING THIS....HOW LONG (many weeks) DID IT TAKE FOR YOUR ENTIRE BUTT TO SOFTEN BACK TO NORMAL?????

Hey, you're looking great!! Would you recommend the arm lipo??
Thank you! I would recommend the arm lipo if you want your arm to look smaller from the side. Overall, your arm does look smaller but it is not dramatic and wont make a difference from the front view.
Hey, you're looking great!! Would you recommend the arm lipo??
I am seven weeks and my butt is about 80% to 90% fully soft

sweet yellow I hope you're feeling pretty good! Thanks for the update on your arm lipo. I've been going back and forth trying to decide whether it's worth getting it done...thanks for the tip on what to say to Salama about the arm lipo. Were your arms real painful afterwards and were you able to lift yourself up using your arms or were they too weak? Thanks so much
Thank you, im feeling great! My arms were in pain but it was tolerable enough to push myself up afterwards. They will
be bruised for about a week. Good luck on yours!

Grade A plump booty! Wow! Congratulations on getting through the surgery, and your results are lovely.
Lol thank you so much! Im loving the results!
Sweet_yellow You look absolutely amazing girl post more pics. Thank u.
Thank you Perfectbuns!
Can u post after arm lipo pic? And if it was painful? And worth it getting your arms lipoed?
Than you Perfectbuns. The arm was a little painful but tolerable. It remained hard for about 7 weeks and is still healing at this part. To me the arm was worth getting done. However, keep in mind that the doc can only take fat from the back of the arms. So if the flabby front part is where you are worried about, it wont make much difference.
Hey girl,
Post some pix
