That picture looks better but it's probably the work you put in and not the doctors sx. I don't have butt either but next month will. Will post pictures so you can compare. Take care
AWESOME! good luck!!!
Thanks for the update~~ looks like you're healing well, how do you feel?

lipo fat transfer update - 27 wks (6-3/4 mths) post-op

my butt is still flat. more flatter on my left side. but I do have the back 'sculpture' that makes me look like I have a butt (with clothes on).
I'm still sore. My sides, my abdomen. I had to get a prescription because I'm having nerve issues in the abdomen. So working on my abs, wearing certain high waisted pants, and belts periodically causes some pain. My stomach is still swollen. Sometimes it's hard. But the doc told me I'd never have a flat stomach. WHAT??? I thought that this would be my ticket! granted, I'm 58, so maybe I don't heal like I would have 10 yrs ago. I don't know. But a tummy tuck? I've already spent over $18k on my procedures. It's taking a long time for me to see results. Hoping I can go back to working on my abs SOON. Still glad I did it, but man, I wanted a butt and flat tummy SOOOOO BAD!

Hi, I'm hesitant but need to ask. Who did your surgery?

I'm so sorry to read that the outcome was not what you expected.
Wow, you've been on one heck of a journey. Do you feel that you had a good doctor with lots of experience with BBL's? It sounds like you've had more issues and are less satisfied that some other posts.
Sorry but you not being able to have a flat stomach is not true. You can do anything you put your mind to. It may take working out but believe me, your fully capable of getting a flat stomach. I was very heavy at one point and I worked very hard and now am super thin stomach and just needed a butt. Don't let a surgeon who is not skilled tell you things untrue.
Hi,

Has the nerve pain gotten any better? Are the medications helpful?

here's a pic (left side) I took 14 days after, and a pic (left side also) 5 months after. I know they say the swelling gets worse before it gets better. and wow, do I look worse than I did at 14 days!

Im not sure how difficult your procedure was on you but I feel like the Doc could have better job with the money you spent. I feel like you deserved much better results than what you got despite still being swollen at 4 months post op. Hopefully with time your body continues to change for the better! :-)
