I am new to realshelf, but I really like the honesty of the women on this site so I decided to share my journey as well. I am a 21 year old African-American female. After much thought and consideration I decided that getting a brazilian butt lift is the safest way to achieve my bigger booty aspirations lol. I have always been blessed in the chest area, currently bra size 38D and wish to even things out in the rear. This surgery is to boost my confindence and enhance the way clothes will fit me. It you knew me you'd know i do thorough research before any big investment. I've wished I had a bigger butt since my teenage years but I refused to get implants they were too risky for me. Using my own fat seemed like a win-win situation to me, slim to none chance of rejection. My first doctor pick was Dr. Campos, he gets so much love on this site, but like many others I cant risk possible complications in a foreign country. So I chose a plastic surgen in the Miami, Florida Dr. Michael Salzhauer. He is a well known doctor with all the creditals and certifications not to mention his before and after pics :D #Winning. Lol but my surgery date is just over 5 months away. I've already paid my deposit plus $5000. Arianny the patient coordinator seems very busy but thats understandable. I had to edit the surgery preposal a little, however for $8,800 i got the bbl plus 6 areas for lipo all inclusive. I am a nursing student so i dnt want a shelf, just a nice bubble butt, similar to JLo or Beyonce. My current weight is 185 lbs & im 5'6" tall, my goal is to be 160-165 lbs and maintain that weight for atleast a month prior to surgery. My theme song is "Lap Dance" by Tyga lol it's my motivation song hehe. All comments, advise etc. are welcomed :)

I have a quick question for all the ladies who have or are going to have surgery with Dr Salzhauer. Where did you girls stay at?? Arianny recommended the Daddy-O Hotel but i wanted a hotel with refrigerator and microwave. Right now im leaning towards the Marco Polo Ramada...any input is welcomed :)

Hello bbl sisters.. Its been a month since i last updated my journey. Ever since i put down my deposit i've been having serious second thoughts. Im a student so im familiar with debt but i feel as if I've made a vain mistake. Yess with the butt ive never had im sure my life will change drastically in a good way. I keep telling myself that this is an investment to improve myself and not to feel selfish. On the other hand I keep thinking of all the things i could have bought with 10 grand :/. Its bittersweet to say the least. There is no turning back now, my hotel plane ticket and procedure all already paid in full. Are any of you girls battling "second thoughts" or feeling guilty for doing something for yourself?? I think we as women are so use to taking care of others that we tend to put ourselves last. Oh and my goal is to lose 20 pounds (goal weight 165) prior to sx. Im looking to tone with weight lifting and slim with jogging and zumba. That way i have enough fat to transfer but should also give me a small waist. Im currently taking vitamins, iron pills and biotin. *Plays "Lap Dance" by Tyga for motivation lol*

Hey hun :) trust me when I say that you are not alone. Its normal to go through the emotional process. This surgery is a procedure that will change your life both mentally/emotionally, and physically. I cant personally tell you whether or not this procedure is the best for you; but what I can say is to follow your instinct and your heart. And never ever feel guilty about something that has the capabilities of bring you happiness. We have one life to live that we know of, so if getting a fatter ass and slim waist will make you happy, then go for it full heartedly :). Im actually going through the same emotions as well, and im scared as hell of the potential complications and the recovery period. But I am willing to sacrifice inorder for long term happiness. Girl im a virgo so over anyalize everything...I drive my own self crazy lol best of luck . And im here if u want to vent to a fellow sister going through the same :)

I had surgery with Dr. Markmann in September. What worries you about Salzhauer? He's not on the "hot" list right now, but IMO, that's a good thing. It's probably best for you to be at your goal weight, even if you have to postpone surgery. What I am seeing is many women either gaining too much weight before their surgery, or not losing enough. Then, they have unlipoed areas left behind and have to spend more money and time doing a round two. The doctors are the only ones who win in that scenario, IMO.

I have too girl! Then i was like if i dont pay for this now im goin to back out lol so i paid for everything within a week. The next week i was like "what the hell was i thinking?!!" and my emotions and feeling are forever changing :/ But just like ive said to other bbl girls i think the pros outweigh the cons by far so ima just go for it lol.This is a present for me and i think anything that makes us women more confident is good. Thanks for your support. Good luck and God bless on your sx hun :)
