Male BBL Jolie Plastic Surgery July 2019

3 months P.O. today, and much happier with my results. Dr. Pane did a good job, even though my stomach still has problems and his lipo could've been more aggressive however, I would still need a Tummy Tuck to achieve my goal and I was advised by other surgeons before going to Dr. Pane that a TT or Mini TT might be necessary following the BBL procedure. I'm happy, healthy, and looking forward to the next and final step in this transformation.

4 weeks p.o. and beginning to see some results. The swelling is improving a lot, I wake up to a new stomach everyday. Still awaiting the final result, I may have to consider a round 2 or revision with another facility of course but fingers crossed that won't be necessary.

I initially schedule my procedure in June with Dr. Robert Kagan for July 15th, 2019. However, after weeks of preparations buying supplies making reservations sending photos and labs, and just 3 days before my procedure and 1 day before I was to leave for Miami, FL with my first class roundtrip non refundable ticket and many other reservations Dailin, my coordinator from Jolie Plastic Surgery called to inform me that Dr. Kagan has decided it's better to do my procedure in a hospital setting and unfortunately he's entirely booked for the next month. I was told I'd have to reschedule with Dr. Kagan or choose between Dr. Brewster or Dr. Pane as they were the only two available near the date of my original surgery. I expressed my dissatisfaction and explained my circumstances (non-refundable tickets) to deaf ears. Dailin did not care at all and she offered no explanation or consolation for Jolie or Dr. Kagan breaking our agreement. The Doctor had over 4 weeks time to review photos and decide the best course of action, but specifically I reached out to Jolie 3 weeks before my surgery date to inquire about the procedure and my calls went unanswered and my email got no response. I decided on Dr. Brewster whom I considered initially anyway but then I was told he wasn't available until the following week, that left Dr. Thomas Pane.

Dr. Pane was available on the 17th of July just 2 days after my initially date meaning I would only lose two days of recovery rather than thousands of dollars in non refundable reservations for myself and a friend!

Arriving at Jolie Plastic Surgery I was surprised when they called me back within 10 minutes of waiting (the reviews said it be hours), I completed paperwork, spoke with a nurse, and was fitted for my post op garment in less than a hour. But the day of surgery was the complete opposite. I arrived at 11:45 am my surgery was scheduled for 12:30 pm. I was again almost immediately taken back to give a urine sample. I was put in a triage room and after answering a few general questions I was left for at least an hour before Dr. Pane came in. Dr. Pane was nice and welcoming but still a bit distant almost distracted by the paperwork he filled out while speaking to me but not exactly looking at me. Nonetheless I engaged him instead by pulling out my photos and asking if my expectations were realistic. Dr. Pane explained that I did not have a lot of fat to work with but that he understand what I wanted and that he'd harvest as much fat as he could, on that we agreed. Dr. Pane took some pre op photos and than marked me for surgery. However, I would sit in that room another 4 hours alone before they'd come get me for surgery. At one point I stepped out in the hall in a gown just to make sure I wasn't forgotten. Finally after 5 o'clock the anesthesiologist comes to take me back. She was very pleasant and explained what she was going to do and how it'd feel, she was right lol it burns.
I wake up laying face down and I immediately sit up, the nurse stopped me from getting all the way up as they were still dressing me. I was swollen, bloody, and very uncomfortable but not exactly in a great deal of pain. I was able to help the nurse dress me and minutes later I was discharged. They assisted me out the back where my friend was waiting and I was off.
Once at my hotel I took a oxycodone ate a can of pineapple chunks a yogurt drank some juice and layed down but couldn't sleep until the medication kicked in.
I returned to Jolie Plastic Surgery the next day for a post op appt where Dr. Pane explained the surgery went well and he was able to put about 760cc into each buttocks (I was expecting at least 1000 in each but he said he did his best without harming my skin so I was grateful).

10 days post op and my butt has gone down a lot and I have no pain in my buttocks and haven't since day 6. My Stomach however was so sore and swollen it was bigger after surgery than before (disappointing) but the Doctor says it will go down in time so I'm holding my final review back awhile as I am not happy with my stomach at the moment but it has gone down a tiny bit but not at all where you'd expect a person who didn't have a ton of fat to begin with to be. As for my butt, I like it I have some concerns as to if it's enough projection at the top but I have to wait a while before I can say because my back is still very swollen. My butt is bigger and better than before but is it what I wanted I'll have to wait and see. The post op photos where taken on day 4.
