Have not had my surgery yet but Nancy has been a huge help thus far! Cannot wait! I have been researching this procedure for over 2 years now just researching different doctors and trying to find pictures of people how have done it. I also wanted to try and find a more affordable doctor as well. My initial consultation was with Dr. Markmann in Ellicot City MD, he is a WONDERFUL doctor and if I could afford him I would have gone to him however he was well out of my price range. I didn't want to settle though so I wanted to find someone else just as good but more affordable with extensive experience in what I wanted done. I finally found realself (by accident) one late nite and let me tell you this site has been a God send! So many women I want to thank you for your reviews and photos you made it much easier to find a new doctor.
I will upload some photos tomorrow, I have them on my thumb drive. I have a few so I will upload those and show you the before then the after once I get it done. I am getting a BBL and TT. I am 5"7 140lbs, I have 2 children by c-section and I am 31 years old. Just to give you background on me. I have always been unhappy with my butt since forever, well before this surgery even came out I was wearing butt pads and extra underwear to plump my butt up in jeans. LOL
I am black so I have always been aware of my lack of buns. Everytime I saw a back view of myself in jeans I wanted to cry it was saggy and wrinkly. Then after my kids I have loads of stretch marks on my belly and a bulge that really bothers me and does not allow me to wear a bikini which is a must in my book! I have also had a lack of curves ALL my life I have been very straight no hips no curves no buns only thing I have is large breasts you can imagine my body profile, not too exciting.
All in all I would like an "S" curve to my back and definition in my waist and a BUTT! After all these years of wearing double panties/boy shorts with jeans and/or butt pads I deserve the real thing now. lol
Best of luck ladies and I will keep you all posted as I go along.

What are you having done? How much did they quote you? My area was well into the $20,000 for the same procedure I am having done with Dr S for 8399 and still quality work. I was getting a lil worried because I could not afford the other doc but I really wanted the surgery done, thanks to Dr S I can do it now! So excited!
