Finally at 3 week mark

So I finally hit 3 weeks yesterday and so far loving my results. I haven't noticed much volume loss since about 10 days PO so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that most of this bootay will stay. I had my 2 week PO appt with Hazani on Tuesday (2 days ago) and he said everything looks great. So happy I didn't have any seromas which means no draining (woohoo!) He also said I'm pretty much done with swelling in my butt so most of my volume should stay (hope so.) I'm no longer wearing my abdominal binder and I stopped the day of my PO appt which Hazani recommended me not too since it's too big on me. I already ordered a waist trainer which I'll be receiving today and can't wait because I do feel my stomach has some swelling and the binder really helped with that which now I hope waist trainer will do the same. So I didn't take preop measurements (I should have) but I did take my measurements at 2 1/2 weeks and also today and so far they are the same... My waist is measuring at 27.25 & my hips/butt is measuring at 40.75! I haven't really sat on my bbl pillow yet only when i need to drop my kids off at school which is about 15 mins two way and other than that I either lie on my stomach or stand. I still get lower back soreness and soreness on thighs when I stand for too long or early in the morning when I first get up but it does end up going away after a few mins. Overall I'm almost back to being 100% normal

Thank u and I ordered one on Amazon named Yianna, it was only $25 but I absolutely LOVE it. It's not a cheap material at all and boy does it shape you up and I only wore it one day but I absolutely love it. I bought it in short torso because I'm really short and the regular one will dig into my hips
May 6, 2016
thanks so much..I'm tall so I'm sure the regular one will do for me.

Hey dolls, any suggestions on how to do a bowel movement? Techniques on how to sit on the toilet? I still haven't had one but I know it will be soon. Thx!!
May 12, 2016
Hey doll, do you know which yianna waist trainer you bought that you love? I can't wait to get out of this binder? When did you switch over?
User Avatar
May 13, 2016
It's the short torso one (only one on Amazon) and I've been wearing for a week now and love it and the material is great! I stopped wearing the binder at two weeks because that's when Dr. Hazani told me to stop but I wanted to stop before as it was too big and it would scrunch up a lot in the back because it was too big... And yes the binder is horrible. The waist trainer is so much better
May 14, 2016
Awesome! I'm going to order the one now!
Also...how are you driving? I did a test run sitting in the drivers seat. I put the booty pillow underneat my thighs, and a lumbar pillow behind my back, but I seem to sit up way to high and it still kills to put any type of pressure on my back, like it stings like crazy....any tips? I'm gonna have to pick up my kid from school in 5 days. (12 days post op). Thanks!!

Driving for me is still kinda uncomfortable and I'm almost 5 weeks :/ I just put the bbl pillow under thighs and a boppy pillow behind my back and move my seat as forward as possible since I'm so short but yes you will sit high ( I sit high also and I'm only 5 feet)... In the beginning when you first start it will be uncomfortable because you're still healing but as time goes by it will get better and better. Just try not to drive far when you first start driving because the longer you drive the more uncomfortable it'll be.... Just take baby steps

Love you results ! What was your pre op weight? What's ur height? My surgery with hazani is on June 6th I'm so excited but nervous at the same time!
User Avatar
May 10, 2016
I'm 5'0 ( accidentally put 4'11 on review) and I weighed 116 but Hazani wanted me to gain weight so I went up to 124 day of preop and that's what i currently weigh right now... You'll be really happy with your results as Dr.Hazani does a wonderful job
May 7, 2016
Omg I think in saw you in thr waiting room for your post op. Sorry I kept staring at you because you look fabulous. I was going in for my pre-op, so nervous but seeing you gave me much comfort. Thank you for sharing your blog. I just had my bbl yesterday and yes, this is no joke! I still haven't even looked in the mirror. I don't want to see my swollen face and bruising. Will continue to follow your journey. Xoxoxo hazani doll sister! Dr. is truly an artist!!

Have you posted pics yet? I haven't seen your review come through. My surgery is this Friday and I'm just excited to see more before and after pics

I would lean forward as a squat to not touch my butt on the toilet seat and would put the whole seat up. I know some girls say they use something under their thighs to help them sit. And luckily I didn't have to use anything to help me go but I know you can take stool softener a or eat things high in fiber

You look absolutely amazing! Just another reason why I want to Dr. Hazani! I was stuck in between choosing Dr. Hazani, Dr. Salama, and Dr. Tania Medina in the D.R. but I live in California so I would like to closer to the doc. And so far, all I have seen are amazing results with Dr. Hazani so I'm leaning towards him! I hope my butt turns out like yours lol. I'm hoping to get over 1000ccs injected as well. How tall are you? I'm not sure if I should gain any more weight before I go in because I gain weight everywhere including my arms and face but I want enough CCs to get perkiness and hips!! You look great.

Before & After

So here is my before & after ( after was taken 2 days ago when I went shopping) and I just wanted to show the difference with the same EXACT leggings worn in both pics. It's so unbelievable how Dr. Hazani transformed my body and shaped me up with some curves! I even had a little pooch on my lower abdomen (can see in before pic) from my previous 2 pregnancies and I no longer have which I'm extremely happy about. I am forever grateful for Dr.Hazani and would recommend him to anyone and everyone because he really does amazing work!!!

12 days post op & feeling MUCH better again!

Ok so I've been MIA since my surgery due to me not feeling good and also because I'm a mom and had so much things I needed to get done with my kiddos. So I will say this surgery is no joke. I've read so many reviews before I had my surgery about how it was not easy and how the RS girls were in so much discomfort and I truly thought it would be easier than it was.... Let me say ITS NOT!!! I had a BA and that was a piece of cake compared to this. Not only are you swollen, bruised up, and in so much discomfort from being on your stomach but a lot of things change that you don't really think about until AFTER surgery. Like I have to stand up to eat with my family at the dinner table (which sucks because I want to sit with them), if I go anywhere I have to stand and after a while my lower back starts to hurt and my feet hurt so quickly now so I feel like I can't even enjoy my outings yet, I also have to consider not getting my eyelash fills for a while (I get eyelash extensions) because I can't lay on my butt which really sucks because I LOVE my eyelash extensions haha... It's just a lot of stuff that I guess I didn't really think about prior to my surgery but I DEFINITELY don't regret my surgery at all... I only used the norco's until day 1 postop and then just took Tylenol extra strength afterwards because I hate taking narcotics since it makes me so constipated and it made me really dizzy and nauseous even with taking the anti nausea meds. I only took the Tylenol when I was in a lot of discomfort but definitely before going to bed so that I could sleep better. I pretty much slept 4-6 hours after day 2 postop at night with pretty much only getting up to use the restroom. I'm lucky that I only drained the day of surgery and nothing afterwards. I can say I didn't really feel like myself till day 8 postop, that's when I wasnt in as much discomfort. Girls definitely get up to walk as much as you can because it helps so much with lower back pain and any discomfort you feel from laying down so much. Everyone experiences different pains in different locations after surgery... With me my butt definitely wasn't sore and didn't hurt and still doesn't since surgery. It was my abdomen that was the worst! My thighs still hurt because they are still swollen and bruised but the discomfort is SO much better that it's tolerable. I stopped taking Tylenol about 3 days ago. And let me say when you first get the Leonisa garment and try taking it off OMG it is so painful. But with time everything gets better. I just can't wait for my final results and for all the bruising and swelling to go away, and hopefully i don't lose too much fat in the bootay.

I'm 10 days post op and still feel numbness around my abdomen, did you experience that?
User Avatar
April 25, 2016
Sorry to butt in ur question, but I had numbness till about 4-5weeks. Still have little numbness on my lower back. It is very normal to experience numbness.
April 25, 2016
Thank you, I do also feel numbness on lower back... I'm now using lipo foam under my garment. What can I use for itching when I remove garment?
User Avatar
April 25, 2016
Yes I feel numbness around abdomen and my lower back as well... Can't wait to feel normal again lol

April 25, 2016
The worst part of the bbl recovery is really what I consider lifestyle changes. You have a love/hate relationship with the garment, it's hard to sleep and when the *#&! can I just sit down like a normal person?! And ten there's the losing the booty paranoia that we all have lol. You look great, Hazani does such wonderful lipo sculpting, it's really life changing.

April 25, 2016
Yes I DEFINITELY agree with you. I keep asking the hubby if my butt looks like it's getting smaller haha... I don't want to wake up to no butt lol

Yes and thank god I'm over the worst part already... Now just waiting patiently for my final results haha :D

April 25, 2016
Omg I know what you mean. Everytime I sit even though I'm using my bbl pillow when I get up in ask if my ass if flat or smaller lol so paranoid.
User Avatar
April 26, 2016
The result looks amazing. Could you tell me pls if Dr Hazani gave you the Leonisa garment or you had to buy it ? I'm really confuse because i will have my surgery in June and I don't know what size garment to buy.
User Avatar
April 26, 2016
Thank you....He provides the garment, abdominal binder, & the bbl pillow. I recommend to wait after surgery if you decide to purchase extras because you won't know what size you'll be till after the surgery and he provides the first garment at your postop appt
