LOVING MY RESULTS
WORTH IT
I had Bodytite Lipo on outer thighs and arms, a medial thigh lift and BBL almost 2 weeks ago with Dr Naveen Setty in McKinney. I have already had a tummy tuck a few years ago. I have to say although I am still in these darn compression garments and have the usual swelling and tenderness to contend with, I am so happy I I did this surgery. I believe it lasted close to 6 hours and of course I was pretty sore for a few days, my results are looking fantastic! I will be ready for summer soon!
When I first went to Dr Setty, I wanted to see if we could do a thigh lift without any visible scars. He told me that there are so many scar treatments that I shouldn’t let a scar make my final decision of what I wanted. I agreed and decided on the medial thigh lift. I am already see that my scar will not be bad at all!
My BBL is perfect but I realize statistically it will go down some from here at 2 weeks post op. And that’s okay. It is expected. I can see that I will be very pleased with my booty:)
As far as pain, I have had far worse. I am not a fan of prescription pain medication so the first three days I took Tylenol a couple of times a day and that was good. But as the expected bruising and swelling came I took the prescription medication and it worked well. I took that for 5 days I took that and now I am back to an occasional Tylenol if needed here and there.
The absolute most aggravating part of plastic surgery is the blasted compression garments! They are terribly uncomfortable and make getting comfortable almost impossible. But, as I know from the past, it only lasts a few weeks. I cannot wait to throw these out!
I have another follow up appointment his week with Dr Setty. I hope to be able to get back to work ASAP and save my days off for the beach!

Gravity Can Be So Cruel
It seems like every year my flab gets lower and more wrinklier. Working out just doesn’t get every area back in shape. So I chose Dr Setty to help me out. The review for him is in a word “Superb”. I will have multiple procedures and I am very excited! I will have BBL, arm, outer thigh, and hip Lipo and thigh surgery. My butt has really lost any and all shape. It’s just there. Flat and flabby. My thighs are saggy and make me feel like I look 20 years older than I am. My arms are flabby as well so I’ll be getting Bodytite Lipo on them. I will be posting the before pictures soon.

Hi, are you doing all the procedures at once? Why I am asking... I just had BBL and lipo of: stomach, thighs, back, upper arms. And 10 yrs ago I had: thigh lift, butt lift, upper arm lift (all at the same time, ugh, horrific). If this recent time I had an additional thigh lift I would probably keep over LOL. It is so difficult... And because of lipo on my thighs it was too painful to sit on BBL pillow for 2 weeks post op.
Anyway - perhaps you can break your procedures into 2 runs. Or allow yourself long time to recover; hopefully you can take several weeks off work.

P.S. Gravity yes I hate it too! And loose skin... My life-long battle... ;)
Good luck & best wishes!

Hi Marina. I’ve been so busy I apologize I am just seeing your question. Yes I am having it all done at once. The more I can do at once the more money I can save on hospital and anesthesia. I am all about that! Thank you for the well wishes. I have no doubt it will be hard the first few days but I am confident I can do this and get around:)
So you had a thigh lift then went back 10 years later for Lipo? What changed in your results after the first procedure?
Thanks again for the well wishes! 3 days and I’m there
How many days post op are you from the BBL? What do you think about the results so far?
