What they DON’T tell you!!
Sorry it took me so long to update. Looking back at my review, I feel awful. I think that any time I tried to get help after my surgery, and the staff telling me I’m fine, left me a little brainwashed and hopeful. Not only that, this surgery is so overhyped by so many people online, that it makes you think you might need it. But here’s my honest opinion and what I (think) about it a few years down the line.
-What they don’t tell you is cosmetic surgeries can possibly do more harm than good no matter what.
-The process felt far from great, despite my initial results and how I looked. I didn’t realize how many people have had bad results from this bc there were only a few posted online at the time. Now I am seeing so many have similar experiences to me years later!
-It matters what surgeon you get based on results & aftercare. But I think no matter what this surgery is overhyped and felt unsafe/scary/painful.
-Maybe lipo or some sort of body sculpting would have helped without such an invasive, horrifying surgery. Without the fat replacement. But tbh I recommend no surgery now that I realize the risks and toll it took on me with time.
-Seemingly never-ending swelling, leg swelling, knee/back pain. Feels that way years later. This isn’t a rant either. Like I said, I was one of those excited for a mommy make over and thought this is what I wanted.
-Ppl might have better results or after care than one another, while researching.. but in my opinion I think any surgeon can get busy or anyone’s body can react differently, and that makes it feel like a gamble.
-Possibly this type of surgery causes excessive weight gain. I used to be able to lose weight, now I have the hardest time doing so.
-Fat storing.. My theory is possibly due to the fat storing, makes the body want to continue to store more.
-(Fat replacement might seem like a good idea, but it seems to store it in other places it didn’t before lipo.) Sometimes in lumps. I thought it would look smoother due to seeing others post op journey.
-Possible long term damage… I kept getting a radiating pain with no explanation… I’m not trying to cause fear this is based off of a real experience. I never got an explanation or help other than told to “massage.”
-Dangerous… the reviews are real, it seems confusing reading so many, but like I said, there can possibly be false ones made. I don’t know how this is approved with so many side effects.
-Up & down results. The first few months it seemed like it didn’t retain the fat. Years later it seems like the weight keeps retaining.
-Working out… my initial thought was to do it and work out anything I needed to. But the extra cellulite that seemed to grow everywhere is very hard to work out. The swelling makes it stressful to want to work out too. I used to love exercise. It also seems to make running harder.
-Regret… if you regret it like I did, it’s so hard to get fixed. The money, the time, the possible dangers make it so hard if you end up wanted it undone. I also thought I wouldn’t.
-Shape/size. Does size even really matter? Everyone has their own unique shape, and they don’t tell you enough. But it’s enough.
-If I could go back, I would have enjoyed what I had after babies. Mommy makeovers are overhyped, no one is perfect, and although surgeries seemed to be listed as makeovers it mostly felt like a make under. I miss my little figure and look back and see how cute I was natural & how easy things were before the process. Just me.
-Natural… It’s okay if you don’t like the natural look. But unnatural surgeries seem more damaging. There’s so many other ways to look and feel sexy that isn’t a surgery.
-Hips… seemed shapely initially, but this surgery made them feel too big over time seems. It seems like they keep growing.
-Vulnerability… Surgeries that some are told is safe or the risks are rare… But how is it so normalized nowadays being so unsafe? It makes us vulnerable to a surgeon who may or may not want to admit when things go wrong. So far it seems like more and more don’t. It’s placing yourself in someone else’s decisions and we are very vulnerable to want to feel comfortable at consultations.
-The deceit no one talks about… It’s decieving to make someone feel great or smile during consultations… & leave them vulnerable or damaged for years after. The comfortability seems more tactical and strategic now that I think about my journey.
-Research… I felt smart researching things and making lists thinking it would prevent a lot. It did help, but I can’t prevent how my body reacts or the changes that come with it.
-Mind set. It’s said you need to be in a healthy mind set to do this. But the process felt depressing at times with not being able to do much, to going through so much change, and then seemed to be pushed to the side, rushed, or even ignored when I needed answers. Didn’t seem free enough to help when things went wrong. It made me anxious being in pain & not getting help through the trauma of an extensive surgery.
-Money… the money spent is ongoing as well. Needing massages, stuff for swelling, jeans never fit right, ongoing dr visits, panties often rip or feel uncomfortable, revisions or even needing to remove it.
-I hope this helps bc I needed to hear this too before I continued.
-There’s no need for perfection. I never once expected that. I just didn’t expect the risks, and circumstances it was cause long term either. Please try not to think short term for yourself.
-What no one tells you is your health is so important. Try to see beyond looks and makeovers. It shouldn’t be weighed or risked. But I miss how I felt before this and would pay to feel healthy again.

March 2019
My butt lift is still in tact. My butt is noticeable bigger. One thing I would like to say is that he did leave a huge noticeable dent in my stomach so I can’t really wear a bathing suit yet. But other then that he gave me curves. I want to get a tummy tuck once I’m done having kids anyways so I think that will fix the lipo dent. Sometimes things just happen there’s risks of these things with any surgery so be aware of them. Also be aware that you might have to work out extra after a BBL bc you have more fat in the butt. You can’t tell in this pic but I notice when I don’t work out I start to notice extra cellulite on my butt. But other than that I think this surgery was worth it. I would never go through it again the worst part was laying in pain for 2 months lol. I like my results though now i just want my breasts to match someday.
Mommies getting a BBL
I think if you've had babies before this procedure is different and the over all results. Even though I was petite my body was so out of shape before this having multiple children. My butt was no longer round and shrunk and the fat that used to be my butt oddly went to a small stomach pouch. I had smaller arms and legs though. But my stubborn small areas of fat were my tummy, braw & back flab. I ended up trying to gain more weight for this bbl and got even more out of shape everywhere. Although I love my waist which was never this flat before. But the after pregnancy body does need more work than actually females who dont have loose skin or stubborn fat areas. Or who are more in shape and have more butt muscles. I plan on getting more in shape, losing some weight and then I'm going to start lifting weights to tone up arms and legs. I don't want to be out of shape with just a bigger butt. I understand if next year I have to go for round 2. Especially since Hazani left me with one rounder butt cheek that feels bigger than the other lol I noticed alot of girls posting that on here too. I'm just waiting to see if the other butt cheek settles down more after healing this year.
I'm not sure if I would have him do my round 2 but it might be needed if working out doesn't help. It might be worth it to go to Miami if I end up doing a revision. I was looking at this girls reviews of going to the MagicSurgeon in Miami and her snaps look great and her over all body looked even and snatched and her butt looked huge and round. I think he might have done her arms and thighs too. I'm not sure but he made sure that she looked proportioned beautifully.

Provider Review
I think I focused more on how Hazani's work looked a couple of years ago than how the reviews look this year 2018. I think his technique changed and is more subtle. If you're looking for a natural change, with some sculpting that's what he did for me. I think he's a great Dr. either way. My curves went up somewhat but I'm loving my small waist and feel sexy in dresses once again.
