Scheduled my consultation yesterday!! Can't wait...
$8,900
Scheduled my consultation yesterday!! Can't wait. Spoke with Nayelli (<<< I think I totally bombed the spelling of her name... sorry). She was so sweet and helpful.
Called again this morning because I was reading about the variation in pricing over the past few months. Spoke with Debbie this time and she was also very helpful and sweet. Although, she did tell me she wasn't able to disclose pricing at this time and only after having my consult would they give me the price. I'm super nervous because I didn't want to have to pay more than 8k and I'm thinking it's going to be closer to 10k ????.
I'm pretty heavy, size 16 in clothes and 5'4 ish, so I'm not expecting to look like JLo after my surgery but hoping Dr.Hazani can give me more of a shape. I'm somewhat curvy when I'm smaller but after I had my kids and gained weight I completely lost my shape. I'm currently in the process of losing weight and I'm hoping by my surgery date I can lose close to 40lbs ????. I believe they are currently booked till Aug, so that should be more than enough time.
I'll update after my consult... for now, gotta get on that treadmill ????

Ok so, no judgement. It's killing me to post these awful pics right now but I feel like it could def. help some other people that want to get this surgery done too. My starting weight was 230. In this picture and currently I'm 220. I had my consult with Hazani and was told I needed to lose weight (about 30lbs if not more) , which was always my plan anyway so no harm there. Although, he basically didn't want me to schedule my appt until I had lost the weight. I understand his thinking behind it but if I may say, everyone is different and some people can lose the weight with a target date in mind and others may not be able to. My weight fluctuates... alot. And I have lost 30lbs+ before. Anyway, thats what Hazani told me and the next day I still got an email from Gary with a proposal. Still not sure about what to do. I think I'm going to set my surgery date and kick up my dieting and workouts to make this work. Wish me luck!

(reposting on this update, where i meant to put it!)
the issue with weight loss is that theres a limit in California on how much they can take out unless they hospitalize you. if you did surgery today, you would likely hit the max with just one area because its a deceptively small limit. :/
i did my surgery with dr hazani and recommend him, but only if youre already within a good range (that is: no more than 10-15 lbs over your ideal weight). otherwise you may be disappointed with how much fat he has to leave on you.
if you want larger volume liposuction, you may wish to do a consult with dr joel beck in san francisco area. he operates in hospitals and keeps all patients there overnight, which means he is not limited by strict volume limits and can safely have more freedom to take more volume. hes more expensive, but two surgeries (to get all the fat you want out) would be even more pricey.
just my $0.02!

I understand. I do remember reading something about that max. removal of fat and Hazani did mention that during the consult too. I think my overall gripe was just that he said he didn't want to schedule me until all my weight was lost and that would have put me months out for my surgery date and possibly a higher cost too. I still do believe he is the best dr and I'm going to use him for sure if that's what I decide to do but I really just wanted to voice my opnion to help others in case other women have had the same experience. As far as the large volume lipo, I'd rather not do something like that. I'm capable of losing the weight so I dont mind working hard to get the weight off before surgery. I really appreciate your info though and thanks for sharing it with me.

Girl...me at 127lbs...I couldn't loose my love handles anymore after my fifth child! It seems our body just gets to a point where it says "I'm done". So, what do we do? We take it to surgery and BAM...it's done lol

It's OFFICIAL! I've scheduled my surgery date!
I've paid my deposit and scheduled for September 27th. Geez, I'm so nervous. Let me know if anyone is scheduled for that date as well!! I've been looking at other women getting theirs done and some people have it done with a friend or family member... how fun that must be to go through something like this with someone close by your side that understands your pain and struggle thru the recovery process. Anyway, just giving you ladies an update. Feel free to ask me any questions!!

Yay... I know its about time! I feel like I've been waiting years to do this. It's finally in motion! Congrats- you made it girl!

Mine was supposed to be today but due to low iron levels and a recent nose job, I had to reschedule. My new date is September 30th.

July 19, 2016
Oh no... sorry! On a better note at least we'll be around the same time and we can go through it together LOL! I almost scheduled for the 30th but I ended up just doing Tuesday so hopefully by the weekend I'd be feeling decent.

i am booked with hazani for this monday (omg!) and also cant spell nayellis name and feel bad because she is a lovely person. :D
have you consulted with any other doctors yet? even if you are settled on hazani, its a good idea to do some other (free!) consults, to make sure your expectations are accurate.
I've been doing so much research on dr.'s and honestly havent found any other dr. that produces the same results. Actually, I did find a few but they were all in Florida.
Now I'm just waiting for my consult with Hazani and then I will make my choice.
Btw, I did try to schedule with Dr. Schwartz, but I didn't think he really specialized in bbl since there are no pics on his website. And his consult was $200 so I passed on that.
Please keep us posted! Â Let us know how you lose the weight!
I have my consult on the 22nd. It was mentioned that there is a waiting list that you can be put on in case anyone cancels their surgery. Debbie will probably mention that to you after your consultation if your projected surgery date is prior to their availability. Also, Dr.Hazani is said to be on vacation from mid June till mid July. Hope this helps you!!
