You look great.. congratulations!
Thank you!
You look amazing!!!! Congratulations. Keep posting pics when you can. Enjoy the new self confidence
Thank you! I def will as I keep healing!
You look great.. Thanks for posting! Body looks awesome.
Wow you look great! It's natural looking and that's also what I'm hoping to get. Also, def would want your recovery experience. I was pretty active and was in the gym 3-4 days a week prior to having to gain weight for the BBL. But the last 4-5 months I stopped going so i can gain weight. I was an athlete back in the day and have had many experiences of severe soreness etc so I'm hoping it's similar to this type of ache/pain?? Pls say yes.. LOL
You have amazing results. Please post more photos of your belly area too. I'm curious to see how the skin recovers and how long it takes.
Congrats!!! You look super hot in that bathing suit

1 week post op

Finally 1 week post op! I still have my front drain in. Hopefully it will be taken out by Friday. I’m so ready to go home! I’m happy with my results and hoping I won’t lose too much volume since he wasn’t able to put in as much as I wanted (due to poor skin elasticity).
Recovery has been fairly easy for me. I have high pain tolerance and honestly didn’t need to take any pain medicine. I was very sleepy the first two days... and sore for the first 3-4 days. After that I feel good. The lipo areas feel numb and will occasionally give me these zapping pain (due to nerve regeneration) and really tender to touch. I can’t wait to see how my body progresses the next few weeks.

I'm going to have bbl with Dr. Salama on 08/28/2018 and I was just wondering how often have you gotten massages since being there. How much volume was removed and how much was placed in buttocks?
I’ve had two massages since surgery here. I forgot to ask Dr. Salama how much he lipo and put in my butt. I know he said that my skin elasticity wasn’t that good so he wouldn’t be able to put as much as I wanted. I will let you know as soon as I find out.
Amazing how recovery is so different 4 everyone.. love when i read the easy ones... hope mine is like yours..
Thank you ! If you’re pretty active person or have pain tolerance I think your recovery will be good. I always kept moving around! I can’t stay in one place :)
You mean during recovery it in general? I started getting back to the gym bcuz i got off track...

Post op day 2

I’m feeling a lot better today! I was so sleepy the first two days. I haven’t needed to take my pain medication. Just one pill at night to help me sleep. I’m still very sore. My butt feels like I just slipped on ice and landed on the concrete. My booty is nice! I’m hoping it will start rounding out more. Dr. Salama gave me some hips that are proportional to my body and my stomach looks great already! I can’t wait to get my first massage so I can get rid of more of the fluid!
