8 week update!!! I guess this is what it is :(

$6,500
I just passed 8 week mark. After week 6 I started using bbl pillow to drive 2 days a week to go to work otherwise I still work remotely. Have not slept on my back or sat on butt directly yet. My hips contour from the front has turned out to be very uneven and even my waist look uneven. I am very sad and don’t feel that happiness and Newly found confidence other girls rave about!! :(. I have contacted my surgeon office to find out my options but at this point I can’t gain anymore weight than I already have gained for this surgery. My pre op and post weight is still the same. I still wear compression garment 24hours except when I go for shower and massage. Still gets massages. My hips dips have definitely improved But the unevenness of contour makes me feel like I traded one problem(hip dips)for the another(Uneven hips and stomach). Before I signed the contract I had sent my before pictures and wish pics (the same ones I have uploaded here) to my surgical coordinator. She said my surgeon Said My wish pic results are achievable and have asked me to gain weight, add thigh lipo to my surgery, so I did but here I stand with this results. If I had heard the same things my doctor had told me the morning of surgery, in that email before I signed the contract, I would not have signed that contract and kept looking for a surgeon.. I was so so excited from my surgery coordinator’s email promising me my wish results :(, I am not right now!! This much pain, discomfort, expenses beside surgery it self is not worth it if I don’t get what I was promised the day I signed my contract.

Did you get any lymphatic massages??
Yea since my surgery ans I have been still getting them. Now just once a week or 2 though.
I see what you are saying, but you do not look bad at all and i don't think anyone will notice, but the most important person in this is you. So you have to be happy. You might have to do a second round to get this resolved.
Thank you for saying kind reassuring words. Yea I will probably get a second round. Not sure with who and when but I know I will. Even when I squat and bend, I see one side has bigger profile than the other.
You look beautiful!!!! He did a really good job
I got mine done with him and he botched me. Left me uneven and gave me a bigger butt then what I wanted. It looks too big for my frame. He also did lipo on my inner thighs and he botched them. My stomach is so uneven and one cheek is bigger then the other. I regret getting done by him.

4week update

Before and after One week post op pics. Also 4 week update pics. Left my thoughts in picture captions. I am very sad for loosing 3 inches from butt post op by the end of 4 weeks. I didn’t sit on it or slept on it. I did follow all instructions but I am still not sure what happened.

You probably lost mostly swelling. I think your butt now fits your frame much better. If I saw you out I’d still say man she’s got an a**. You look amazing. I’m already an inch down and pretty sad about it because I loved the size, so I understand that part.
Hang in there. Theres still swelling. You look good, it will only get more even and better as weeks go by.
Thank you guys I hope so.
You look amazing. With bbl some of the fat will die. You retained a great amount. Your butt fits your frame. It doesn't give you that she got her butt done look. One thing I see on the Q&A is doctors tell women not to gain weight for the bbl. sometimes it can make a difference between your final results. But to me you look good.
Thank you for saying kind words. My doctor asked me to gain weight and I was reluctant towards the advice but I didn’t want him to tell me that he couldn’t give me the results I wanted because I didn’t gain weight hence I did. I also had asked him to go as big as he can so naturally if I do end up losing weight, I still have enough to good booty and hips. Since posting that update, I have lost more volume as swelling has been going down. I am not dieting at all to maintain my weight and for fat survival. Have you gotten your bbl done? Did you fit into the same clothes after bbl that you used to wear before? I am !!! :( my friends think I am look heavy because I have gained weight but you are absolutely right none of girls noticed my butt in my daily clothes. :(
I only got a tummy tuck and I just went back for the lipo. Your wish pic is of. Skinny bbl. so gaining weight would not give you the looks of the wish pic. I still think you look good. I'm not sure what you look like now or before gaining the weight. If you do a revision let them get what fat you have. I wish you the best.
What you are saying makes sense now. I followed my surgeon’s instruction of weight gain because I thought he knows his field and may be he needs more fat to give me fuller big butt the way i wanted it so i gained weight. I am trying to request revision and hoping him to use whatever fat is left over to correct this new unevenness of my hips and fill top of my of my butt and bottom left cheek for fuller & even look
I had my BBL on the 19th Sep and I am about 3 weeks post op as of tomorrow. I feel like my projection on the butt has reduced, but overall its an improvement in the shape. Also are you sleeping on your sides? My doc told me not to.

Day of treatment

Surgery day 1

Guys.. so I had my surgery today. So far Dr Chang and my surgical coordinator Pamela has been best. I was first one to get procedure so waiting this morning wasn’t bad at all but everyone in this clinic seems to be in hurry to get done with you. Employees don’t introduce themselves or explain what to expect next day or post op. They answer your questions but if you are first timer like me and don’t know what to ask in that moment... you lucked out, than you kind of have to roll with the flow. I was expecting little more friendliness and more explanation of what will happen on the day of surgery kind of service.
Post op pain- as soon as I woke up I shivering as if I was sitting naked in freezer. My legs were numb but post op nurse still was in a haste to get me out of clinic. I told her I don’t feel my legs. I can’t take steps because I guess anesthesia still hasn’t worn off completely so she injected me with something and put me on wheelchair to send me off with my care taker. Once my care taker picked my tramadol, I started feeling better but first 2 hours without any meds made me feel like I was dying.
Massages and post op appointments- I got notification of my post op appointment as I was going to my hotel and massage department missed to book my appointment for tomorrow and gave me my first appointment for day after tomorrow. I have been calling and left voice mail, waiting on call back now.
Best part of this day - My care taker stevondra!!! Ladies if you are coming to Miami by yourself or staying in a hotel and neee care taker.. this girl is the one to go to!!! Sooooooo sweet and helpful. She has been a godsend. The Care taker I originally booked bailed out on me yesterday evening at the last moment. I texted stevondra afterwards and she was ready to save the day and come pick me up this morning. I don’t what would I have done without her help today. She was right on time to get me post op. Helping me all day, went to grocery store multiple times to pick things for me, help me every hour to walk around and get in bed afterwards and picked up my meds. She will be bringing me to my post op massages next few days as well. Sweet as honey and so humble.. also her rates are very very fair in compare to many other care takers I talked to. I am telling you she is the one!!!!!
Last thing, uploading some photo!! Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any questions..

Omg I apologize for so many spelling and grammar mistakes. Still drowsy due to meds.
Hello what's your caretakers information I get my bbl in October
Hey girl inbox you her info.
I'm so excited to see your results!!! You look amazing already!
Thank you I appreciate it. But i noticed a flat sunken area on my butt and my massage therapist was telling to about it op. I really hope it fluff out but beside that I am very happy with my hips results
Goodluck on the recovery. Mine is scheduled for Sep 19th. I am usually 126 lbs at 5'5 but gained 20 pounds and at 146 lbs. It feels so heavy and uneasy. Cant wait for the surgery to be done with.
I felt the same so uneasy with this weight. I couldn’t wait to be done with surgery. Good luck with your journey and keep us posted.
I am counting days until the surgery.
Love to you. Rest and Recover!!! Its not easy but we are brave to do it.
Cant wait to see more pics as you recover..
Congrats girly! You a champ for writing and posting pics right after surgery! Thanks for that especially to see what the faja looks like drenched in blood. Better idea of what to expect. And i was definitely curious of what to expect RIGHT AFTER getting out of surgery so thank you for that breakdown. I'm seeing Chang on Sept. 8th next week. Hella excited! Did you come from outta town? What did they expect with this covid testing shxt?
How did your surgery go???
