BBL story

So I decided to start this review dr pane because I believe he is an underestimated south Florida surgeon. I am now 3 weeks post bbl and feeling good. There are tiny things I'd change still on my body however I'm still healing and hoping the final outcome is exactly what I've been looking for . I will post more in sequence on my entire experience thus far. I told dr pane I wanted hips , more rounded
Of my booty and the tiniest waist possible. So far my measurements are 36,29,45.5 . I was 36,33,44 prior to surgery but honestly the measurements don't prove much because my butt is still projecting about the same but much more Round. 2150 L of fat was removed and a little over 1000ml in each cheek is what I was told. I personally believe I had more fat to remove but I will wait till the final results to judge that! I see the changes happening slowly but I'm still so very swollen.

These pictures are prior to surgery.

So day one was the worst. My butt actually felt like it was going to explode. I slept majority of the first 3 days but my pain was out of this world. Pain killers didn't seem to do much except make me sleep. The first 4 days were probably the worst.
After the first week I began to get up and do normal activitys such as laundry and cleaning lightly around the house. Day 12 I went back to work but it was rough. Honestly getting up and moving probably helped me the most. Laying around just made my muscles more stiff and sore. LIPO PAIN IS NO JOKE!!
2 weeks post op I started to feel normal but still achy but back to normal activity (I'm a nurse but worked only part time). The numbness and itchiness is honestly the worst part at this point.
I'm currently 3weeks post op and see my booty shrinking. I had somewhat of a butt before it definitely wasn't non existent so idk if I'm just getting used to the new one or it really is shrinking. I will wait the 3 months to make judgment but if my tummy keeps shrinking I'll be happy.

So my BBL by dr pane was great. No complaints in that area whatsoever. However I felt as though I had fat in my love handles and the indents in my hips which drove me absolutely crazy (as both of these were my main concerns going in the first time). I personally think pane is an A1 surgeon however I don't think he got my exact vision for my body so I decided to go with dr dean for my second surgery. 11/25/17 was my surgery with him. Here attached are photos from the night before surgery.
