I’ve been doing research for a couple years on BBLs and wanted to wait until I was 25 to pursue it (just in case my “grown woman” body came in one night and I woke up with a fatty).....I’m still waiting btw. So now I’m starting the process; (i’m 5’10 172lbs if anyone was wondering) I’ve narrowed it down to Dr. Kagen or Dr. Dowbak...Dowbak has really natural fat ass results....and I’ve heard great things about kagen and from the Kagen Dolls I’ve seen he also does amazing work. I’m from Philly and prefer to do my consultations in person (which seems to be a shocker for Jolie and New life). I’ve scheduled them both for July 25th. Hopefully I’ll be able to make a choice with ease by then (it’s just the libra in me ??????????????????????)....ideally I’d like to have it done in October so I can be on a beach in a thong for New Years but that may be overly optimistic...oh well, a girl can dream. If you guys have any thoughts or suggestions I’m open to hearing them!

Well I’ve heard jolie is actually eres for starters . I’m still doing my research but dr dowbak looks like your best bet. She seems to have a clean record and great results! A lot of good feedback

Let me know how your consultation with dr dowbak goes please hopefully you get a bit more info like a cv her history in cosmetics and her record. I’ve done my research on her and everything seems pretty good

Yeah and it was vanity before that I believe. Seems like they change their name everytime there is a serious incident. Which seems likely since they have doctors that are not board of plastic surgery certified, as well as doctors who have been charged with prescription drug fraud (we won’t get into names). However, kagen is certified and I’m making my choice based on the surgeon and if I personally feel safe and how my soul feels in then presence of these people and their facilities. Which is why I’m flying in for my consults....I will definitely be updating frequently as this is such a stressful process, I’m constantly anxious about this decision!

I’m in the exact same position soo nervous! I hope all goes well nd if you get some more info bout each doc. Please let me know. Also do you know any information about the history of new life ?

Uhhh well from my personal research Dowbaks Cv is available on her direct website....and I’ve come to the understand that Kagen doesn’t use drains and also use smaller gauge needle (which both of those things could potentially be a good or bad thing....I’m not really sure). As far as new life, I haven’t been able to find any deaths or incidents so far but I’m doing some SERIOUS digging. I’ve heard a couple reviews regarding unprofessionalism and a switch up in timeliness once deposits are paid but it hasn’t been my own experience so you know you have to consider it but also take it with the backing thought that some people are honestly just neurotic crybabies, you know, which is why I’m going in person to check these things out. I will definitely keep you posted.

I don’t reckon drains make much of a difference I don’t know whether dowbak uses them. In the UK they don’t use drains for liposuction. I think it more the skill of the surgeon that gives the results. Yeah I hear you with the cry babies statement

I’m writing long paragraphs nd the full thing isn’t sending what’s going on sooo annoying.

So I’ve began considering financing, it’s not something that I intended on doing but my mom made mention of it and how it could help boost my credit and it won’t be a burden because I already have the money....I’m not sure yet. I have however purchased my plane tickets to go in for my consults. I’m feeling like Dowbak will likely be the way I go. I’ve already started making my amazon list of post surgery items (I’m a prepared planner lol). I’m still actively shooting for October for surgery.... I feel like I’m a randomly rambling soooo I’ll just attach my before pics. Please feel free to let me know your thoughts on financing in comparison to paying flat out.

Deposit dropped, Date set

Just paid my deposit for my BBL on November 7th with Dr. Dowbak. It’s a little behind my ideal timing but it gives me more time to prepare so it’s fine. I’ll still be snatched and able to enjoy the new year....I’ll be paying half in cash and half on my credit card. At this point I’m gonna start picking up my post op things a couple things at a time so it won’t be a burden later. I’m super anxious now (just getting it out the way I guess), I’ve never done anything like this before; I’m looking forward to the adventure. My coordinater is Tania who has been a doll so far. I work a lot and can be very hard to get in contact with but she has been patient with me so far....Considering just doing Airbnb instead of RH to cut cost since I will be bringing my mom and we are both nurses. Adding it all up. I’m ranting now. Welp. Until next time guys...I will attach a couple wish pics, because why not -__|^.^|__- (there are no emojis here so I made one, don’t judge.)
