Liposuction + BBL: Dr. Liu is crazy good.

ORIGINAL POST

Liposuction + BBL

WORTH IT
Dr. Liu is absolutely trustworthy, professional and the most humble/ smartest doctor I’ve ever met. The attached photos speak a million words about his work but finding the right surgeon was not easy. I will talk about my experiences with other plastic surgeons in this next paragraph.
Dr. Liu was my 4 consultation with a plastic surgeon and I’ve never felt so comfortable. My first consultation, the doctor tried to say I needed full body lipo to make sure that when I gain weight, the fat would distribute well throughout the body and not in awkward places (keep in mind this was 3 years ago when I was at least 30 pounds lighter). She also had concerns about my skin laxity on my upper stomach and she recommended that I didn’t do lipo on my upper stomach. My second consult the doctor saw me for a minute and he said I was the perfect candidate for lipo. He said he would take care of everything even though skin laxity was a bit of a problem. The consult felt rushed and I felt like the doctor didn’t listen to my concerns or find the best procedure for me. He was a very popular plastic surgeon but made me feel weird, just the vibe I got so I gave up on cosmetic surgery for a few years. It was too stressful and I was confused. Both the doctors were extremely cocky (or maybe they were trying to be confident) and I felt like they were looking down upon me. My third consult was with a very expensive about to retire doc that basically quoted me 13K not including surgery center fees and not including anesthesiology fees. Omg, I was completely shocked. He said the surgery would take 4 hours for full stomach lipo, full back lipo and lipo on my love handles. He marked me all up during my consult so I felt confident in his work but he stressed me out because he was talking through everything he was going to do. During all my consults including Dr. Liu’s I just felt like the before and after pictures were average. I wasn’t super impressed to be honest so I lost hope again. NOTE: none of these docs even spoke to me about fat transfer to the butt or boobs. Any younger patient would love to have a bigger butt or breasts (well at least in my opinion).
Okay, now let’s talk about how amazing Dr. Liu is and how much I love him. Dr. Liu cares about his patients and gives you the right advise. We didn’t even talk about safety much since he has never had a problem with his patients under surgery. You can tell that safety is the number one priority for Dr. Liu by just the way he talks. During the consultation, Dr. Liu just listened and asked questions then listened some more. He doesn’t say much but when he talks it’s like wow life changing. We talked about my skin laxity concerns that other surgeons implanted in my head. Dr. Liu said that I’m young with very nice thick skin so skin laxity isn’t a problem. We talked about gaining weight in the future and that’s when he recommended fat transfer to the butt or boobs. Fat transfer is very important when doing liposuction procedures because the fat that is removed is liquid gold and if you don’t use it - you lose it. Fat transfer is like an insurance plan for your liposuction procedure. Not only does it help the surgeon contour your body, but if you gain weight in the future, the fat cells transferred have memory and you will most likely not gain weight in weird places like your arms or calves. Genius - hopefully all the weight goes to my butt!!! So we decided that liposuction + BBL (fat transfer to the butt) was the perfect procedure for me. The surgery was 3.5 hours and the results are unbelievable. I want to mention that my patient care coordinator Beth was so so so great. She’s very energetic and happy all the time. She got me so excited for my surgery and helped me with financing since cosmetic surgery is expensive (Dr. Liu is very reasonable with pricing procedures). Thank you Beth for following up with me and scheduling the surgery prior to COVID-19 epidemic or else I probably wouldn’t have reached up until Fall or even next year.
I hope my story can help you find your surgeon and definitely know that Dr. Liu is crazy good.

How many cc you get injected per cheek?how much fat did you lose after surgery?thanks
450cc per butt cheek. We took out 5 liters of fat mixed with procedure liquids/some blood. I lost 12 pounds but probably because I haven’t been drinking alcohol. With liposuction, you don’t necessarily lose weight especially if you transfer fat to other areas. It’s more about contouring the body to make it look slimmer. I hope this helps(:
How much was your surgery?
Almost 11K
How much did this cost out? You look amazing!!
Almost 11K and thank you! :)
You look amazing!! How much was the procedure? we have a similar body type and your after pix are amazing!!
Almost 11K....Thank you(:
You look fantastic. I wish I had results like yours. Unfortunately, I had less fat put in my butt but less fat was taken from my flanks, belly and innerthighs when I did have more available. Are you willing to share your age? I'm asking because that may be why he didn't remove more fat from me. Either way, you look great.
Thank you, I'm 27 :) When I was showing Dr. Liu before & after pictures, he mentioned that the girls didn't have a lot of fat injected into the butt area... a lot of fat was taken out of the love handles / waist area which makes the butt look bigger and the body looks more contoured. I'm sure you look amazing!! :) If you wanted to enhance your results, maybe try non-surgical fat reduction on the love handles. CoolSculpting works like magic!!
Thank you for your feedback. I think the age makes a difference. I had bodytight to take more fat out of abs and thighs because so little was removed for the buttlift. I did have less fat in the belly than you to begin with and he was worried about sagging since I'm older and have loose skin from pregnancy. Anyway you look great and hopefully you will be able to show off your bikini body soon.
