I'm almost at two months and I feel much better. I can't wait to hit the beach. I've been working out hard core for two weeks now trying to tone up again. Get my legs and arms tight. Doing 500 sit ups every other day. Trying to get sexy abs to go with the booty. I truly believe I won't see my true results for 3 months. My abs are getting softer but still feel hard. If I sit a certain way I get ugly dents and creases. Hard to explain. So can't sit for too long.

How long was the actual procedure? Do you think it was worth it. I'm paying the same dr hoping to get done in September?

Hey! Looking nice! If it wouldn't be too much trouble can you upload some some pics of your stomach? Dr. Patel always talk about how his stomach and lipo techniques are the truth, which is why I was considering him. Also where are these dents and creases?

Girl wait on him though, but don't sleep on him. He just doesn't have enough results yet.

Hey Hun!!! How's the healing going? So far, are you still happy with your results? It looks like Dr Patel hides the incisions very well. Is your butt soft/jiggly yet? :)

I'm 2 months post op and get those same ugly dents in stomach that your speaking about. Looks back to normal in the morning. Your over 3 months now, how is that hardness in your belly? I have all that stinging when you stretch still. Sides are still tender, my inner thighs are feeling better, he did lite lipo there. Have to say you look GREAT in your pics.

back to regular routine

My swelling has gone down. My abs are still hard. It feels like a stretched out rubber band sometimes. I've tried my best to get back to a regular routine. I go to the gym 3-4 times a week. I can't jog like I used to, at least not yet. I want to do crossfit again but I'm not ready with the tight hard skin on my ab area. My butt has shrinked a bit. There is a part of my butt that goes flat. Dr said it's my old butt trying to come back. He said I can do another bbl just for that small section. NO thank you! I'd rather try squatting it out and hope I can get it rounder. I need to loose 20lbs. My fear is loosing more of the fat transfer. I gained weight prior to surgery on purpose. I've tried avoiding sitting as much as possible but it's hard especially if your trying to go back to a regular routine. I sit on my BBL pillow when I'm driving and the days I work in the office. I never sit down when I'm at home. I watch TV on my knees on the couch and eat standing up. I do have to say I get stared at alot more by men. Even at the grocery store men would stare. I went to a club for my sisters bday and my butt was grabbed on twice as I walked thru the crowd to go to the restroom. Smh.

So Far....do you think he has done a good job? What does that mean "Your Old But Trying to Come back" If you had a small one to begin with why the hell would it try to come back if there was nothing there. These doctors, I tell you man. SMH. They will say anything.

I wish my butt was bigger. He said he put 800 cc in each cheek. He said he used as much as he could. My mom said it looks perfect, not crazy big or too small. I think he did a great job giving me a shape. Girl I was square. Now I have some curves. I feel way more womanly. Maybe I could have went with another Dr and gotten a bigger butt but would not have given me the curves around my waist. It's so hard to decide. Overall I felt safe with Patel, he knows what he is doing. He is experienced with body contouring which was the main reason of my surgery.

Yes and that is what counts. Did he do that Video Vixen Look? No. But who knows what these docs are doing out there to give that look. I am not 100% Sold On Patel, but I will say his Liposucioning Techniques are on POINT CHILE! And I think you look improved! Thanks again for this update, this Doctor has like 10 reviews on here, lol!

I think your shape is wonderful! He probably meant that BBL's are unpredictable because you never know how much fat will be retained once injected. I think they told me there's around 60-80% retention or something. And definitely try squats! They will work wonders if you stick with it! I hope you put those men back in their place after grabbing at you!! Goof grief...so disrespectful. Look, but don't touch. :-)

I'm still sore and swollen around my abs. I don't remember when was the last time I had a good night's rest. Dr advised I hold off on working out this week. I've noticed my butt doesn't look so perky as the first week. There's also a dimple on my left butt check that looks flattened out. Hope it smoothes out. I've avoided sitting on my bottom these last 3 weeks. I hope my waist shrinks more once my swelling goes down. Well that's what Dr said it would do. Therefore giving me more of that hourglass figure. I've been wearing my double steel corset as much as possible but it hurts with the swelling still there. I can't walk normal as it is. I can't bend over. I'm hard as a rock. I have my 3 week follow up tomorrow. I'm going out for my sisters 40th bday on Friday 13th so I'm hoping once I get all dolled up I'll feel better.

Hey girl ! I hope you're feeling much better now being that some time has gone by. I'm seriously considering dr Sej for the same procedure j was wondering if the lump u saw when u made this post disappeared or if u needed something additional done to it. Also, did u develop a lumpy feel on the areas dr Sej did a liposuction on? Please kindly let me know. Thank you
