hello everyone, i had my bbl done on 5/11/11 with dr. S and could not be more satisfied!

The pain FOR ME was not bad at all, i'd say it was more soreness than painful. i am one week post op and feel great! still sore and swollen but nothing crazy. i specifically asked him for a small waist and a HUGE booty and that is EXACTLY what he gave me. he injected 1200cc into each cheek!

i live in NYC and stayed in a hotel in miami for 8 days which was just fine for me. i totally recommend this surgery and especially with my doctor! also his staff is FANTASTIC! nothing short of an amazing experience for me!

Booty for sure! Congratulations to you! So glad you are enjoying your results.
How is recovery going for you?
No drains or compression garment?
I bet Miami was a fun change of scenery from New York.
Dud your Dr. recommend getting massage on the lipo'd areas?
I am having mine done in Seattle in June. Excited and nervous.

WOW! (In my flava flav voice)
That looks asstastic so far. I have just discovered about BBL and I am wanting it already! 1200cc in each cheek! I may need to see ur P.C. cause that's the kind of results I want, I want an onion bootie (make the boys cry).
I hope your recovery goes well and keep us posted and more pics.

Im seriously cnsidering Dr. S. I've gotten a quote and it was very reasonable. He transferred a huge amount! Where did you have all that fat? You really didnt look like you had much fat in your before pics. The reason Im asking is because Im 5'5" 160 lbs and the doctors I've seen in Chicago all estimated 5-600cc's. NOT ENOUGH!! Im glad to hear your recovery is going so well and that you didnt have drains which is a definate plus. Did he use the vaser lipo? Congrats once again. Please keep us updated on how everything is going. I cant wait to see everything once all the swelling goes down.

i was 163lbs before surgery at 5'7" the thing is, even though i didn't look "fat" because i generally have a nice shape i've always been soft and i guess a lil giggly lol so i had lots of fatty deposits and stretchy skin so i knew it would be easy to get enough fat to have a great result. i think u should really go for a 2nd opinion because it sounds like your stats are very close to mine. he did use vaser! thanks for reading! good luck!!

What doctors are you considering in Chicago?

hey how r u? Actually none because i dont see any that produce the type of results that michael salzhauser in miami achieve. He's not to expensive and he has a lot of great before and after photos on his site. I would love to find a good surgeon in my home town chicago that could bring great natural soft even results, but so far I've been unsuccessful. Do you know of anyone?

I have searched hi and low and done an number of consults with doctors in Chicago and surrounding burbs. Chicago is DEFINITELY not the market for this procedure. You can get way better results in Miami and the cost of the surgery and travel will still be less or about the same as if you had your procedure here in Chicago.

Hey Flo...I am using the same doctor and you got fabulous results... I want the same! But question, were you able to enjoy Miami beaches at all...I know every body is different but I was just curious. Also how did the boppy pillow workout?

Oh, I read further that you never sat... however after the surgery were you allowed to go to the beach after a couple days?

Flo,
You look great!!! Definitely Bootaylishious!! LOL Between week 4 and week 8 did your butt round out more? I'm in week 4 and I'm kind of afraid I may have lost some volume. Hopen by week 8 my butt gets a little rounder and fuller looking. Once again you look fab!!
