I gained a lot of weight rapidly after college...

25 Mar 2016

I gained a lot of weight rapidly after college from a desk job and a lack of motivation to workout. At my heaviest, i hated the way i looked and it was taking a toll on my knees and overall health. I spent so much time and finally came across a wonderful personal trainer that helped me shed over 60 pounds in 1 year. Well, i loved my overall health but not how my body looked after. My butt went flatter and sagged and i still had quite a bit of fat on my flanks, back, and belly that just wasn't responding to exercise. That's when i decided to get some help from cosmetic surgery to help me get my body back.
I had multiple consultations with my local cosmetic surgeons but I was not satisfied with their results. After much research, i came across Dr. Patel's page on Instagram and fell in love with his work. His work is outstanding and I have not seen anyone else that can even come close to it.

I finally decided to call Dr. Patel's office for a virtual consultation as I live outside the area. His staff is very sweet and courteous and i was able to get an appointment right away. I shared my pictures and overall concerns and Dr. Patel was understanding and honest about how the procedure would help me and what to expect. I did have some other health concerns prior to surgery and Dr. Patel was very honest and straight forward about risks and his suggestions. He takes great pride in his work and his passion for what he does is like none other. Surgery: I flew into Beverly Hills 2 days before surgery. I followed all instructions before surgery and things went smooth. Day of surgery: I was greeted by the sweetest Kelsi as she helped me prepare. The nurse that explained the procedure, medications, after care was wonderful and she took the time to answer all of my questions. She made me feel very comfortable and I wasn't afraid at all. The anesthesiologist was also very nice and lets just say as soon as i was hooked up, I knocked out! Recovery: The recovery wasn't too bad. It feels like you've done a million squats and crunches. I did not have to take the prescribed pain meds after the day of surgery. I followed the instructions and kept my compression garment on at all times. I walked around my hotel room which really helped with the soreness. I flew back home (short flight) 2 days post-op. I was off from work for 2 weeks. I resumed my workouts after 2 weeks (strength training 3xweek) without any issues and I used my BBL pillow at all times. I am currently 8 weeks post-op and i'm very happy with my results. The attached photo is WITHOUT any compression garment under my dress. No back rolls, love handles, my belly is almost gone, and my booty looks amazing! I would not trust anyone but Dr. Patel with my body. His work is impeccable and I do not have any regrets. He is the only surgeon i would recommend to my loved ones.
