Hi Ladies. Well, here is my journey. A mother of three, have been raising my babies myself for a long time. I am 40 now. Just re-married two weeks ago and my girls minus my 8 year old are big now. Man, I never thought that doing something for myself would carry so many damn demons. By that I mean I have been excited and scared since I made up my mind in Dec. 2012 to just do this...Well really my sister wanted to and I just thought hold up!!! This has been my thing since I read about it in 1998!!! She can't get this done and me not do it b/c of FEARS, FEARS - oh yea and more FEARS. I have anxiety. Real anxiety it's a disorder. To look at me nobody would ever know - I am always laughing joking and showing the world that life is silly but inside I am always having irrational fears of dying and not being here for my kids that I love so much. And now I am just going to do it. I have researched so much I just can't anymore...true fact things can happen but for all of us getting this done NOTHING WILL NOT HAPPEN.

So, some basics - I am 5'1, 150lbs and I am puerto rican and colombian born and raised in NYC. I have a decent shape but no ass what so ever. At least not in my eyes. My husband says I do but I have no idea what the hell he is looking at!!! When I showed him my wish pics he said: OMG DAMN and I said that is exactly what I want you to do when you see me LOL he said I do. You are all of these great things but I don't remember all that excitement over my ass!!!!! LMAO

In my culture you know booty, breast and curves is huge. I know we shouldn't go altering stuff but I have always felt insecure about my BUTT. I hate it. Seriously. So, I have found my doctor and he is Dr. Salzhauer. I believe him to be the greatest for me. Why? Because he's not just interested in selling me some [RS bleep] story about looking incredible. He was more concerned with my Anxiety and how to treat that so I can have a good quality of life minus all these fears. And then we spoke about embolisims, punctured organs, life threating mishaps and anesthia! LOL Once, we got over that hump we discussed the surgery.

He told me it will depend on the amount of fat he can get, how much my skin can handle so he can inject for a nice BIG BOOTY, he will even out my hips and he explained what's to be expected after. I believe he has done Stephanie Santiago's booty and few others that have come out looking AMAZING. I want something sexy, coke bottle but I am trying to also be realistic just in case. I won't be doing this again. I cannot deal with all these crazy fears all over again. So, God will make sure it happens once and excellent!!

I have not bought anything. I am wondering how I will drive to and from work because I am only taking off a week from work and I will have to get it cracking and I don't know how to pull that off!!! So, I have seen how wonderful the girls have been on here and supportive including myself b/c I will make myself available for anyone at any time of the day. If I can comfort anyone I will.

So, guys, here goes. Come take this journey with me please!!! All advice is needed and please stick with me b/c the closer the day I will get crazier!!

Love you ladies,

XOXOXOXOXXO

Me!

Ps. Dr. Salzhauer's staff is the bomb. You have to be when dealing with me. I have questions by the damn minute!! UGH. :/

I enjoyed reading your post! The part with your hubby was funny (and sweet) and with your PS was great. It's so important to have some "connection" with your PS and it sounds like you do as he was able to calm your nerves about the procedure. Please feel fee to inbox me if you have any questions. I had a very smooth procedure and recovery. You'll do great too!!!

Yas, can i tell you that you all have been the most supportive team i know. I love you all from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for changing my life. Dr. Salzhauer is more than a booty master he's a humanitarian. This man hasn't even done my body and he's done so much for me mentally. You don't hear much about Salzhauer on this RS but he's Miami's best!!!!! I can't wait to see you guys nd Yas I did what you said my little one is coming!!!! Xoxo

So, let's pray for the best results and a safe surgery. I am sick of thinking about this already LOL - it's like slow torture!!! You go through will i get cleared? Will I have the money? Will something go wrong? Will my ass be too small after all this mental TORTURE!!! So, many emotions girl...it's unreal!

What reasons are people giving you that he's not the one? Like every other doctor, what may be good for one person may not be the other person's cup of tea so the only way to find out and be sure of your decision is to do consultations and get a good feel of the doctors for yourself (figuratively speaking of course. lol) How many doctors you have in mind so far that personally have gotten your attention.

I sure will JLO1, thank you very much! Let's keep each other in prayer. Not the negative ish - that can happen daily. Picking the right doctor, prayer and intuition is all we need. He truly is good. My two cousins did their butts with him and they look amazing. It's been three years for them already :) Pray for me! XOXOXO

I wish you the best and I will be following your story can't wait to see your before and after. I think a lot of girls don't really go to him because you have all these doctors charging so cheap for surgeries plus its women like us that need to bring out his name because he really is an amazing plastic surgeon And I feel you cant put a price when it comes to your life,quality, and health.,Don't you love how he makes you feel at ease? Lol I know I wouldn't have a peace of mind if it wasn't for him. Good luck on your journey and many blessings! xoxo

Drea8787, when I tell you that I have driven that poor man nuts??? I mean it! Yes, he has spent so much time comforting me and talking to me about my fears! And till this day I am sick!! I am flying out of Atlanta to Miami tomorrow and I have taken an XANAX to calm the hell down. But he has done BBL for both of my cousins they are sisters and it's been three years and there butts look damn good! It's just that they don't do the Real Self thing...they think it's an awful website b/c of the insults and bickering. Everyone pics the doc of their choice and I can't be critical towards any doctor because I am no surgeon and don't know nothing about their techniques. I know I just want someone to TAKE THE TIME to hear me and my concerns and come as close as they can to get me my results as well as my safety. I have done massive reasearch on Salzhauer. So, the rest in Gods hands. :)
