My Body Has Been Transformed!

Currently on week 4 post op, 1 month mark yay! Swelling has gone down significantly and I am starting to see a better view of what my results will be. I feel as though I look very natural thus far and have a better physique overall. With the amount of fat I had I do have some loose skin but overall flatter tummy and nicer hips/booty. I expect the results to go down a bit more as I feel like I’m still a bit swollen. Pain is definitely better, scars are small and minimal. I will attach a photo where you’ll be able to see the incisions but they are definitely small (fingernail size) and on one side it appears larger due to me using a waterproof bandaid and my skin having a reaction (in that pic, in person that reaction has disappeared.) overall still pleased.

I had lipo 360 and a bbl done with Dr Schulman. From my initial appointment through my actual procedure I felt very comfortable in a friendly and more importantly a professional environment. The women at reception were friendly and courteous. Although at the end of the day I am a patient, I felt very human throughout my experience communicating with them. Eliana especially was very helpful in handling my payments on time to making sure I had the necessary requirements checked off in a timely fashion as I am a busy professional and need some reminders. As far as what is required Dr Schulman consulted with me and made sure I had the necessary tests and clearance so that he may operate on me in a safe manner so as to avoid complications. Furthermore, we had a follow up appointment closer to my surgery date to further discuss my goals as far as what I would like vs what is actually achievable. I went into this experience knowing I was in great hands and we were able to come to a consensus as to what I can expect and what is realistically possible. Obviously with the experience Dr Schulman has, we were able to attain some very beautiful results. I have struggled for the past 8 years or so with my weight as I originally had an inverted triangle body type and was about 145 lbs. Most of my weight sat in my torso area and little to none were placed by my hips, butt, arms, or legs. Dr Schulman was able to clean up my stomach and back areas and gave me a pleasant slim shape, a nice booty, and hips which I can say I’ve never had before. So far I am about a week out of surgery and I am swollen to say the least however I can tell that once the fat settles in and softens up and the swelling goes down my butt will look great and in better proportion to my breasts and arms/legs. As far as the surgery goes the team was great, the nurses, assistants, and anesthesiologists were all friendly and cared for me thoroughly from making sure my IV was in quickly and painlessly to making sure I didn’t test positive for pregnancy. I felt very well taken care of. The procedure itself I did not feel anything however I did wake up with a ton of pain. Ladies if you are looking to get this procedure done please be aware that there will be a lot of pain to fight through but as women we are resilient and can get through it if we choose to. The only downside I’d say is after I woke up I was not able to take pain meds due to not being able to eat for surgery. I was given a pain med however it was not strong enough to get me through the pain of the procedure. Personally I have had other surgeries (mild like wisdom teeth) and upon waking up I was given jello or pudding and pain meds. I imagine Dr Schulman has his reasons however this may be a good alternative so that you don’t have to wait 2 hrs agonizing to take your pain meds. None the less 2hrs is minuscule in comparison to a lifetime of new confidence so I will not hang on to that. The first week is definitely the worst but once I came for my 1 week post op appt my Dr (a woman whom I unfortunately can’t remember her name) was great and very informative about my aftercare. She removed my drains quickly and painlessly and gave me several tips so that I can be as comfortable as possible while caring for myself at home. I am super happy and I am excited to go back to see her in 2 weeks. Overall great experience and I highly recommend Dr Schulman and his team. They are the best you will find in NYC and Dr Schulman has the experience to deliver the results you want with the safety that you must demand. Thank you everyone.
