It's been a few months since my procedures and so far I'm happy with the results. I have a few areas that need more fat removed and I'm scheduled to meet with the doc to see about getting some touch ups done. What I'm most proud of is being able to maintain my weight and size since the procedure. Don't expect lipo to cure your weight/size issues! You have to watch what you eat and exercise to maintain your results.

It's been about 6 weeks since my 1st procedure and I've had to throw out half of my jeans! I lost quite a few inches on my thighs. I think more fat can be removed and my thighs evened out but so far I'm happy! At 4 months the Dr. will look at them again and we'll talk about doing a touch up at that time.
This afternoon I'm going in for my 2nd procedure. Full abdomen, sides/waist, and bra roll. I'm also getting more fat transferred into my butt since the first time I didnt get the result I was expecting. The Dr. has been really great about addressing my concers and is willing to do what it takes to make me happy. As he should....since I'm spending almost $15k!!!
So far I've had nothing but good experiences. The Dr. and staff are great!
I will update again soon!

Hi, I am new to the site and I went in for a consult today, One of the doctors in on maternity leave but Dr. Bullis would be doing my procedure if i go through with this. I was wondering what your opinion was now and if it was worth it. Do you have any before and after pics? Thanks for your help in advance!

So sorry for the late response. I haven't been to this sit in such a long time. I'm pretty happy with my results. There are some areas that I feel need to be touched up but for the most part I'm happy with the results. The worst was the abdomen. For some reason I wasn't able to get numb all the way so I did feel quite a bit if pain durning the 2nd procedure. I'm going to see the doc in a few weeks to see about getting some touch ups. I won't post any pictures until after the touch ups are done.

Post Op - Day 6
The last few days have been pretty tough. By the 2nd day I was black and blue all over and my thighs were so swollen it looked like I gained 10lbs overnight. The swelling is finally starting to go down and the bruises are getting better. I think the Arnica Montana gel is helping. Pretty disappointed with the BBL. For $3000 I should have a Kim Kardashian! I'll be checking with the doc tomorrow at my follow up to see if he can transfer more fat when I go back for my 2nd procedure.

MamaVon, May I ask where you got your procedure done at? I'm just south of Bellevue and i've been doing a lot of research on lipo and found a place up in Bellevue that does this but I want to get an honest review on this. How are you feeling now, and how does everything look? Would you recommend this procedure to any other mom out there looking for a little help with those "wonderful" pouches of baby fat?

I went to Athenix in Bellevue. I'm about 2 weeks post op. I had my thighs and knees done and some fat transferred to my butt. After 1 week I was able to move around comfortably. I went back to work after 3 days and wish I would have took a few more days off. I'm still swollen and have some bruising left and I'm just now noticing a change in size. The fat transfer didn't go as expected to the Dr. is going do it again with my 2nd procedure at no cost. I'm still waiting for more of the swelling to go down before I give my official opinion but so far it seems worth it. I'll update again in a couple of weeks.

That is the place that I was looking at...LOL I would love to know how you're doing after a few weeks. I'm sorry that the fat transfer to your backside didn't work, but that's awesome that the Doc wants to do it again for free...shows that the doc does appreciate perfection, that does speak volumes. I think I will go in and do the consult and see how much all of this will cost me..LOL I hope your recovery goes fast and you come out looking stunning!
