I am pleasantly surprised by the results Doc Salama gave me. I tried on sundresses I bought last here, and the curves are unbelievable. Will post photos soon.

My surgery was the first. I was in at 7:30 a.m. my ride husband picked me up at 3 p.m. I was wheeled out in a wheelchair. I asked Doc about many women waking up and they are sitting on their bum. He said when you wake up you have to go upright. I was on the bobby pillow, no pain. I laid in the SUV on my tummy and off to the hotel.

I slept the rest of the day. The next day my butt was hugely swollen. I was in no pain. Next day went in to see Doc. He said, "you are tuff, you are not crying." I felt no pain. He said I looked great. Day by day the swelling went down, and the curves were visible! I've never looked better. I slept good, woke up every hour to urinate due to all the gatorade and water I drank. Other than that I slept well.

I must mentioned I prayed before, and I took the make me heal vitamins pre and post operative vitamins. My butt and hips were red after the surgery, but within a few days all that was gone. I have no bruising.

My first massage, was murder she wrote!!!!! No pain the whole time, till now. She pressed, and rubbed, and twisted every inch of my swollen body. Fluid was squishing out. I put my face down on the towel-pillow and braced myself though I wanted to scream. When she turned my over, my husband said you are doing great, that's when the tears started to flow! wheeew. Second and third massage was better (I paid for an extra one since I stayed 10 days). After the second massage, my body really started to form. I am loving it.

Finally Salamied!

Surgery was a huge success. In the last 6 days I have watched my body go through a huge transformation! I didn't think such results were possible. My experience with Dr. Salama and his awesome team has been nothing but positive. They made sure I fully understood the procedure and what to expect. I am so glad that I made the right choice by choosing Dr. Salama. He is very knowledgeable and skilled at his craft. He took my square shaped butt and fat back and sculpted it into a beautiful hour glass. Nancy and Nomie are the sweetest most helpful people that made going through this process smooth. The massage therapist, I think her name was Cynthie (?) she went above and beyond to help bring comfort to my aching body. That's team Salama, I was truly impressed.

I am 5'2 I weigh 180 pounds. I am scheduled to have a BBL on 2/4/2014 I am so freaking nervous. I am worrying about him smoothing my back lumps out! Most of my weight is on my back like hot baked rolls. Stomach is not bad, butt flat. I'm not so much nervous about having the surgery as I am about my unknown outcome. I wish I had started my weight loss process before getting this surgery. I really want to look slimmer as well as have projection. Two days and a counting down….. boy is my head hurting, too much thinking.
