24 Days Post-Op-
Before I start my update I want to first state that everything I'm about to say has NOTHING to do with Dr. Salama, his work, or his technique. The man is an absolute artist, and I still stand behind EVERYTHING I have said about him. He is amazing, and does wonders for the female body. I am still entirely happy I chose him, and still believe he is the BEST plastic surgeon for BBL and body contouring!
Ok, now on to my sadness.... Thursday morning I woke up and noticed loss in volume. I proceeded to do measurements (I've been obsessing with the tape measure!), and I lost an inch and a half LITERALLY over night. I cried all day yesterday. I feel like I have no projection now. At this point, I know I haven't lost any fat, what I have is what I will keep, but I lost all my swelling and inflammation, so hopefully I will lose NOTHING more. I'm going to wait until Tuesday to post pics, because that will be my 4 week mark, but it's noticeably smaller. I was sooooo happy with it before Thursday. I already thought it was a little small, but had gotten so used to it at that size, and fell in love. I feel like I lost a loved one or something. I just want my booty back. I mean, I still look amazing. I def still have a good bit back there, but I'm just so disappointed. I am beyond happy with my shape, my waist, all the lipo, and the shape of my bottom... It's just the size I'm sad about. But I must emphasize that I knew this would happen going in. If u read my previous update you'll see I was concerned with my elasticity. But it's hard, seeing yourself so damn fine, then waking up and it's gone. Now I'm just waiting for the 2 month mark so this thang can fluff!! I still have hope, but I will say round 2 is a most definite. Please read Part 2 of my journey by clicking here.

3 weeks PO-
I had a GREAT massage yesterday, finally, I just hope it wasn't too late. My stomach looks horrible. It's so lumpy, and I have lines on the bottom. I'm praying it corrects itself. I still have swelling in my lower abdomen, upper pubic area & groin. I've started using a heating pad, and have noticed the swelling going down. Still have swelling on my feet, ankles & calves from standing all day.
Posted a few pics. The before/afters of me in the peach bra & panties, the before is the day before surgery, and the after was taken today at 3 weeks post op. The pics with the garment on, I have pads in the front stomach part, but none in the back.
So far, I'm very happy with my results. Clothes look AMAZING on me, and I can't stop shopping! I fully realize I still have a long road ahead of me, but as I stated before I was fully aware that I do want a round two. I want more hips, and more projection, as well as more of my upper back fat, and front bra/armpit area lipoed. I knew going in that I wouldnt achieve my desired results the first time, but with that being said, I am SOOOO happy so far. He really did more for me, waaaaaay more than I thought the first round. Keep in mind ladies, that my skin on my bottom was very tight. Very, very tight. That's why I wasn't expecting a HUGE booty. But I def got more than I was expecting. My body is amazing, and I'm sooooo happy with it, so we'll just see how it changes over the next 5 months. Who knows, I may change my mind :-)
