3.5 Month Update...happier! - Aventura, FL

I have been going back and forth with my opinion...

WORTH IT$5,899
I have been going back and forth with my opinion about my results because my ass isn't as big and round as I would have hoped. But at the end of the day, I would not have changed anything. Dr. Salama did a great job and my ASS look a whole lot better. If I had a dollar for how many people have complemented my ass since I have had my surgery, then I would be able to afford another one! lol. All in all I look and feel much better about my body. Unfortunately I got lazy and now the mid-section is back chubby. There has been one side effect...one side of my vagina is still enlarged so now I have a lump-sided vag! Initially I was told that it was a normal side effect and that everything would go back to normal but it has been over 3 months and no change. I called the office and left a message but no one has gotten back to me. I am definitely upset about that and I don't know what arrangements the office can make to help me.

As promised, I am finally updating my pics!

wow you look great, im jealous and... lol you have my wish booty. we are the same measurements, i though I wanted 1200 but you look great.
August 29, 2012
I wanted 1200 ccs but my skin is a little tight so it would only allow for 1000. So hopefully when I get back in the gym, I won't lose all of my new ass-ets! lol
August 29, 2012
Hi army diva, I think you results are amazing and I definitely see a differance but I'm sorry about your vag swelling! Let us know what the dr says . Hopefully it goes away on its own!

Im surprised based on your prior review i wasnt expecting your body to look like a 10 girl! Your body Looks great... It's possible you were used to the swelled version of you when you just got it done and to you, you may feel like your butt isnt big enough but in all honesty your results are beautiful from curves, hips , and your butt looks like a NATURAL big butt! sorry to hear about the bag problem sounds like it hurts :-/ Hope that gets in order soon for you girl!!! Love, peace and bootiness!

I doesn't hurt is just like one side is bigger than the other. The drain that was located on the right side discarded any seeping fluids and because the other side didn't I am thinking that some extra fat got there some kind of way.
August 29, 2012
Yes, your but looks naturally big!

I have been too annoyed to post any new pics but I will. I spent a lot of money and I really feel like I didn't not get what I paid for. I only received a 1000ccs even though I wanted more. My results were terrific at first but I have had so much volume loss it is ridiculous. My ass has gotten smaller and smaller like I am living playing in the new movie "Honey I shrunk my ass" lol. There had been no change in the profile and shape of my booty. It is still shaped the same way as before, just a little more volume and definitely not $6000 worth. I love Dr. Salama and his staff but I am a little upset. My shape does look better but I don't see the results that I wanted. If I ever get an excess of money and am going to definite get a round 2. My stomach and upper back is back fat and he did nothing for my arms! I am scared to go to the gym because I may really not have an ass then! I see ppl with some great result from Dr. Salama but only when they have had at least 1200ccs. It seems like a lot but his technique allows too much fat absorption. I will post some pics really soon. I had taken some about a month post op and will snap some recent ones and hopefully you can see the difference.

Army Diva you are too funny!! your review kept me laughing. i know what you mean about Dr. Jimerson. His butts are the bomb but his pricing really sucks baaad!!!! i think yours loks great; please post so we can see the lost. i have heard that before but later it comes back. Ask some of the other girls. it may be that you need to just be more patient. Mine will be next year so keep us updated. i sure hope you get the results you desired.
July 18, 2012
Hey love your 9 weeks post op, and I forget exactly when your expected to see your actual results, so maybe you should just give it a little more time, I here that things sometimes get better before worse. Don't lose hope yet ;)
July 18, 2012
I haven't posted the 9 week post op pics yet but I will tmrw!
July 20, 2012
*worse before better.
July 18, 2012
Did he say your butt was to tight for more CC's? Can I ask what was your pre-op measurements?
July 18, 2012
That's exactly what he said! I am going to call them to ask for my measurements along with my before pics.

Now that I am back in DC for a couple of weeks...

ArmyDiva
Now that I am back in DC for a couple of weeks visiting, I am having some trouble finding a good place to get my lymphatic massages. I have alot of lower back pain and I still have swelling in the lipo areas and my vagina (awful). I don't know how long I am supposed to have the swelling but I been wearing my compression garment religiously even though the heat and humidity is killing me here! If you ladies are familiar with the area and can tell me where to get a good massage in the DC area PLEASE inbox me. I am going to have my husband take some photos of me today in my clothes and post them so you guys can see how much my booty went down.

I really hope that I don't loose any more volume. Dr. Salama said that my skin was too tight to get more than 1000cc, I was hoping for at least 1100. It starting to get soft and jiggly so I am a very excited about that. I still have some bruising but it is going away nicely. My overall shape has definitely improved. For some reason and I reluctant to give away my old jeans that I can't even get above my thighs now just in case I wake up one day and don't have an ass! I have spent a lot of money on my jeans so I am a little scared to give them away but I know I need to. Decisions, decisions....lol

Hey gurl
how are you feeling? glad to see that you look great so far... and this is only the beginning.
May 31, 2012
Yep, you look great Army Diva!!! You got a shelf back there Mama! Congrats! Glad to see you're healing well and hopefully you'll hold on to that volume!! Maybe your booty will "fluff" later like some of the girls have said recently. I'm not sure, but I think that means that over time it settles and becomes fuller? Idk... but anyway, I think you look fab. Can't wait to see pics with clothes on too!!
June 1, 2012
Yes it needs to fluff real soon and one cheek looks a little fuller than the other. My husband was king enough to point that out! But u can't really tell unless u r looking really hard at it. Hopefully everything levels itself out.

May 31, 2012
your but is huge...I can not wait until I get my jiggle on, and I said the same thing, I do not want to give my clothes away either, thats another reason why I want to lose me weight before I have my surgery...So I can wear all my old clothes.
June 1, 2012
My mother in law is having a yard sale tmrw and I am seriously contemplating selling them but I am so scared that I'm gonna wake up one day with a flat ass again and no jeans! Lol
May 31, 2012
army diva omg you look beautiful! I love the way he shaped you. It's absolutely perfection. We are the same weight and height with the same low booty and lil pooch so I'm hoping for the same results. Your waist is so tiny already. Even if your booty went down a little bit you still will look amazing bc your waist is going to get smaller which always enhances everything else. So can you tell me what exactly happened in the consultation as far as did he ask you wants your ideal shape was or did he just do what he wanted to? Also did you tell him you wanted a lot in the lateral sides bc it looks like he gave you some hip action. Sorry for all the questions I'm just excited about your results.
June 1, 2012
No the consult was very quick. I told him I wanted the maximum amount he could give me. I'm a little disappointed because it seems like the world has more cc's than me! I was 156 and I'm 64 inches tall. I think he just do what he wants to do. He told me cuz my skin is so tight that and more fat would have started oozing back out.
June 1, 2012
look @ bblnikki she only got 900ccs & she's got a banger! So you will be the same. I wouldn't worry abt it you look beautiful.

I am also in the army and he told me the excate same thing.....that my skin was really tight and that my fat was hard to get to. He said he gave me all my butt can take...but Im only 3 weeks post opps so I havent posted any pic yet because it went done alot and I was feeling the same you were feeling....that I wasted my money but Im a wait until Im at least 8 weeks out to make any final decisions. I just keep wearing my garment and hoping it shape out how I wanted it because right now there's not much of an before and after results.

I agree with Neveh, your results are absolutely amazing! and IT WILL ONLY GET BETTER LATER due to that "POP" effect that happens later. I am sooo happy for you.
