The Before and After

WORTH IT$11,000
It’s been nearly 2 years since I had BBL surgery. It was well worth the money, time, and effort sleeping on my tummy for 2 months during healing. These photos didn’t upload right the first time. First pic is a few months before BBL. Second pic is 2 days post. Third pic is current.

Benefits: Higher, rounder, fuller butt.
Flatter stomach.
Smaller waist.
Dip in lower back.

Drawbacks: None.

Doc Hughes and his staff are the "A" team. I can't express to you how choosy and particular and detail oriented I am. I am a friendly but tough customer and I joined and studied this RS site intending to find the West Coast doctor who could fulfill my expectations. Dr. Hughes is that expert this community and my research made me choose. He proved himself worthy of consideration from the start when I first emailed my photos and wish pics. He responded that same day within a couple of hours. We emailed back and forth about 15 times that Saturday, and then Sunday morning, as he promptly answered my questions. He told me my wish pics were achievable. I simply wanted to look better, more rounded, and totally natural. I love the ladies here who've gone in the bombshell direction, and have nothing but admiration for them going for what they want. Before my surgery I was in constant contact with Dr. Hughes via additional emails, which he still responded to promptly same day and often within minutes. He was truly committed to answering all my questions and keeping it real about what's possible. Fortunately the look I wanted was attainable. He told me that and set out to deliver, giving me the body I wanted but even better than I imagined it would be. All along this journey to my transformation, he made me confident in choosing him, and at ease about following through with my decision. I felt safe, cared for, and I knew that the doctor was excited to work on me, to give me what I wanted. After surgery care and attention is consistent with what I received before he was ever paid proving to me that he never stops working for his patient even after surgery day.

Still Got Booty 2 Years After BBL

Hello RealSelf potential BBL ladies. Just stopping by to let you know that, at least for me and some of my real self commenters, the BBL procedure I had was worth it. My butts nowhere near as huge as it was a month or even 2 months after surgery, even though I’ve purposely gained 12 pounds. However, I still have more fat than before surgery, all in the right places. I had a few small dimples before the procedure and they’re back :-) but on my fuller butt, they are cuter than ever.

I like the shape much better, because it’s close to the shape it was 10 years ago, when I felt I had my ideal butt. Getting older and losing 40 pounds made a huge loss in butt volume which is why I got the BBL.

I also like the new curve in my lower back and 2 inch smaller waistline.

I’m uploading photos so you can see for yourself. I get shy about pics of my booty on the internet so I may not keep them up long.

Best wishes on your BBL journey.

Real Projection - No More Posing Needed

Hi my beautiful sisters. I hope you're all healing well, planning well, researching thoroughly, and enjoying whatever stage you are in on your journey to getting the body you want and deserve!

I'm finally healing. My butt seems stable in fat retention, shape, and size. I'm very pleased with it, even though that last hematoma left a lil dent. I may have Platelet Rich Plasma injections there, depending on what Hughes says. I've read that can rejuvenate the area and bring it new life.

I'm so happy that I don't have to pose anymore to get my butt to look shapely. Hughes is the man!

Hi my BBL sister. I'm happy to hear you're doing well and that you got only a little dent from that scary hematoma. Shoot, I have dents all over my a$$. I don't know if you loaded a picture or not, out arms RS is updating our my cell, but I am bit receiving any newsfeed updates, pictures are not coming up...it's weird!
*not
Hey Sis! Thank you so much for helping me cope through it. Yeah it was so scary, but now it's over and I can enjoy my slightly dented ass. LOL!! You don't have dents! I have loads of dimples, but I love 'em. Yes, I posted 3 photos with workout tights on.
There you are, I am able to receive pictures now! You are looking good miss TGT! And your stomach...can it very any flatter!?!
Hey, I get an ultrasound on the 29th for my left thigh. I really have no idea what it is, I guess we'll find out shortly afterwards
Omg wow....you went from a normal looking butt to pow wow. Did you gain weight? I am making sure no extra credit is given to that butt other than Dr Hughes work! You are making it hard for me to choose a surgeon now lol
Lol! No I didn't gain, I actually lost. Weighed 148 on surgery day. Weigh 146 now :( Trying to gain back what I lost and at least 5-8 more pounds. This is truly all Hughes fat placement work.
hey Girl- sorry I missed your ordeal , I haven't been on here as much since I went back to work. I'm glad you are on your way to a normal recovery and your booty looks amazing ...
Look who's talking, super sexy a$$! Thank you beautiful!
Hi doll! I'm having my surgery on the 20th and I have been browsing all BBL's here at RS you had a hell of a result. Congrats, you look very natural! It's like going back to ur 20's again! I'm must confess I'm going from excited to scared as the date approaches... lots of insecurities crossing my mind from time to time. Afraid to be botched, to have a horrible healing process, to be in pain for a long time (as I have seen here with lots of girls) but I'm trying to keep positive! Let's connect more and if you want pay me a visit on my review to see Watch u think :)
Hello beauty! Bbl_Lipo16, I'm so pleased you stopped by to read my posts and comment. Thank you! This is an overwhelming but potentially very rewarding journey. You'll be fine with the support of other dolls here, and most especially with your own positive thoughts, and healthy habits. I'm definitely gonna check your page and show love. I'll be following your journey too now in my notebooks!!
Happy you are back on the road to recovery' your butt is beautiful and shapely!' so happy for you!!! Xoxo
Aww! Thanks gorgeous!! Xoxo!!
