I have wanted butt implants for as many years as I can remember (I have absolutely no butt, never have) and I'm finally doing it as my 40th B-Day present! Finding an experienced doctor relatively near me was the tricky part, I didn't want to travel hundreds of miles post surgery. I finally found a very reputable doctor 3 hours from me and my consult is June 8th. My daughter and I are taking a road trip that day and I plan to schedule my surgery right after the consult. I can't wait!

Okay, that first post was pretty vague and lame LOL So here's my detailed backstory...I will be 40 in a few months and am a mother of four kids. I have had a completely flat booty my entire life and spent most of it either hiding it or disguising it as best I can. All my jeans have pads pinned in them, I don't wear leggings, tight dresses, shorts and definitely never put on any kind of bathing suit - I am constantly conscious of my derrière and try to keep that flat sagging thing a secret from everyone. Even after being with my fiancé for two years, I never let him see it or touch it, but I never actually said anything to him, just avoided it quietly. I have wanted this surgery for soooo many years!!! After my divorce years ago, I was finally in a position to do it, but couldn't find an experienced surgeon near enough to me and couldn't travel and leave my kids for that long to get something like that done, seemed pretty selfish. So, it went back on the back burner again. Now, I'm nearing my 40th and am in an amazing place in my life and my kids are all either teenagers or moved out of the house, so I decided now is finally the time. I had to sit down with my almost-husband and actually verbalize the subject of my hideous rear and he was incredibly supportive of me doing this and even helped me look for a surgeon. I was so excited to find Dr. Egrari who is only 3 hours north of me and has fifteen years of experience doing butt implants. My oldest daughter, who is my best friend in the world, will be coming with me to the consult and will also be the one to stay up north with me after surgery. I am so unbelievably excited for my consult, I wish it would hurry up and get here! And I'm hoping he's not booked out too far for surgery, I just want to get this done tomorrow!!
I have been on here a lot lately reading so many women's reviews about this surgery and it has helped so much!! I have so many questions, that I'm sure will be answered in the consult, but my biggest concern is not being entirely happy with the size after the surgery. There are some women that get around 375cc and are super happy and some get 575cc and wish they looked bigger?? Makes a girl really confused as to what size she should shoot for. Breast augmentation is so much easier in that regard, you just tell the doc that you'd like to be a 32D and that's what you wake up from surgery with, but with this surgery all I can tell him is I'd really like a nice round bubble butt and hope for the best. Any advice from veterans on getting what you envision for your booty to be a reality? And anything else I might need to know before my consult?

Be emotionally and physically prepared. You will need an adult to look after you and someone to take care of your kid if she's very young that is. Seeing as you are taking the car I assume. You will need to stay longer then one week....there's no way you can drive home with the intense pain you will have. Do all your food shopping etc. before surgery....you won't be leaving the apartment/hotel for a while

Thank you so much for the advice!! What placement method did you have done? I am concerned with coming home the day after surgery and then having to come back in a week...my doctor said it won't be a problem at all and most of his out of town patients are able to, so fingers crossed...but I'm really nervous about it! My kids are all older, my oldest daughter has her own apartment, the other three are 17, 15 & 13. The main reason I'm finding someone to help in the first week or two is for my puppy who's only 5 months and I know I won't be able to care for her while recovering. My doctor assured me that the pain and recovery from the subfascial placement is much less than intramuscular and that I will recover much faster....although I did just develop hypothyroid about a month ago, which, on top of making me gain 10 lbs in the last month, I've heard it also slows healing time, but hopefully that's not a problem. My oldest son will be driving the other kids to and from school for me and doing the grocery shopping and my almost-husband will take care of me and the household in the evenings, I definitely have a lot of help around me, thankfully, because it sounds like I'm going to need it!

Have you gotten your breasts done?

Yes, I've had two breast augmentations. I never developed breast tissue, so I had what was considered a reconstruction back in 1999, 360cc saline implants (silicone wasn't allowed back then), years later I got into weight training and that caused my right implant to be pushed down out of its pocket, so I had a revisal in 2011 to 460cc silicone which are ten million times better than the saline implants!! My doctor said this surgery will have a far less painful recovery than either one of my breast augmentations, so that's exciting!

I know EXACTLY what you're going through!!! I felt that exact same way quite a few times through this recovery. Feel free to direct message me anytime. I'm at about 6 weeks now and it has been a long difficult roller coaster! But it's finally feeling like the light at the end of the tunnel is not the train :)

I called Dr. Egrari's office a couple of days ago to ask a question and they told me that they had just had a cancellation for the next morning if I wanted to move my June 8th consult up. Of course I jumped at the chance, booked a hotel room for that night and when my daughter and I got off of work, we hit the road.
The consult went really well, everyone there was so nice. Dr. Egrari told me that he does subfascial placement, in the 15 years he's been performing this surgery, he has found that to be the most successful method. It makes me a little nervous because I read so much about people getting intramuscular over subfascial, but he has so much experience doing this procedure and his before and after photos were beautiful, so I trust him. He said the subfascial method would make recovery much faster and less painful with less risk of complications and the end result will be soft and bouncy and much more natural looking. He told me the size 3, 379cc round implant would be best for me....and again, I'm a little hesitant because I really want my result to give me a round bubble butt and with starting out with such a flat saggy bottom, I don't see where a 379cc will get me there....I showed him my wish pic (the one I attached here) and he said the 379cc will give me that result, maybe a little bit bigger...I don't know how that's possible honestly, but he assured me it will and since he has so much experience, I will trust him on that too....
I booked my surgery for May 16th and paid in full, $9900. I'm going to book the hotel room today. Dr. Egrari said I will be ok to go home the day after surgery after my post-op appointment with him and can just come back a week later to have my drains removed...nervous about that too, but he told me that this surgery will be far less painful than either one of my breast augmentation surgeries because of the subfascial placement, so again, I will trust him. We're going to take my almost-husband's Denali, fold all the back seats down and lay a foam mattress pad out for me to lay on my stomach for the ride home.
I am so hopeful that all goes well and I really love my result!!
