You and I have the same body type! You look amazing, but it's a bummer that Dass just doesn't put a lot of effort into his bedside manner. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay? I'm not sure how tf I'm gonna find this dream lol
Thank you :) I paid 13,900! I know it's a lot but if u can they do offer a credit payment plan if that helps :)
You look absolutely amazing! We have similar body types. Can you share the areas Dass did lipo? My surgery is date is 7/9 and I'm hoping I have enough fat.
Thank you so much! Good luck on your procedure
He did Lipo on my waist and hips aka love handles, upper and lower abdomen, and my back rolls
I saw reviews that he does great w smaller frame women who don't have as much fat so I'm sure you'll look amazing :)
Thank you! I had my pre op yesterday and I agree with you about how brief it is. I told Dass to stuff me until he can't lol. I'm getting waist, hips and back rolls lipo'd. I would like to add my abs or arms because I'm concerned I won't have enough fat to make a nice difference, but Dass says I don't need it because he is only able to inject a limited amount of fat. Did he mention this to you? Considering you added your stomach, I don't really see why he wouldn't recommend adding mine.
That's interesting. I'm assuming you must not have a lot of fat in your stomach area for that to make sense bc for me it was definitely a problem area that you could tell more from a side profile. I wish I would have taken side pictures of my before as well just to have an idea
My stomach is my problem area but I suppose he feels there's not enough fat there to make a difference in results and that he can get enough fat from my back and love handles. I asked if he can use my arm fat instead of stomach and he he can lipo it, but he may not be able to use the arm fat in the transfer- because he can only transfer so much before the skin starts to stretch. This has me thinking that sometimes docs don't use all your fat during the transfer and end up throwing some away, but they don't tell you.
typo: *and he said he can lipo it,

Did you tell him you wanted lats and hips or just hips? Going too show him your pic on the day of my surgery lol
Ya I don't think they use all the fat bc your body will start to reject it after a certain amount. I'm going to call tomorrow to find out how many cc's was injected bc I forgot to ask. I only got to say that my hip dips were my main insecurity which had my super nervous before surgery bc I felt like I should of went into more depth of what it was I was looking for but thankfully he read my mind lol. Aw I'm so happy my review can help others. I hope your surgery goes great as well as your results! :)
Thank you for reminding me to bring up cc's. Another topic that I forgot during my pre op. Would love to know how many cc's he used for you if you were able to ask them today.
Omggg. Your results are amazing. The best on his reviews. My sister also went to him and she looks so good. My surgery is 8/5 I feel like showing him your pics and saying I want this
Aww thank you so much :) How exciting, that's so soon! Let me know how your pre op goes
Hi! You're results are amazing! I'm considering him... any updates on your results doll?
perfection!

I made my decision to have dr.dass be my surgeon for this procedure by seeing results through this app so I figured I'd do the same to hopefully help someone else. June 7th was my pre op, the first time I went to the office and would meet my dr. and Tbh I left feeling like I didn't know if I was making the right decision. Not only did I feel unappreciated, but dr.dass didn't even bother asking what was my expectations/desired shape, all he did was show where he was going to take the fat out and every question I asked I almost felt stupid for asking bc he made them feel so pointless. The nurse that came in didn't even have my information correct she seemed very tired and overwhelmed just overall a bad experience and first impression considering I'm paying top dollar in Beverly Hills. The next morning June 8th was my procedure and once again didn't go any better as far as the staff but the good news and basically all that matters i guess is that my results were great!

Omgosh that's horrible mines is august 2 did he at least allow you to show him wish pics ?
Ideally I wanted to show him pics of his work that I liked through this app , but the way my pre op went I wouldn't have dared to just by his demeanor. But who knows, hopefully you will have a better experience :)
omgosh im sorry :( I go in tomorrow for my pre op I hope he hears me out because I have alot of questions to ask lol how has your recovery been ? any tips? :)
Sorry I just saw this! How did your pre op go? Today marks my 2 weeks and thank goodness I finally feel closer to myself pre surgery! First week and a half is definitely the hardest! Just very uncomfortable if I could describe it! My advice would be to definitely get rest bc once I hit my 7th day i started doing things around the house and my left ankle swelled up so I had to stay in bed for two days to make sure everything was ok
I am waiting to book a consult. I sent my questionnaire and pics. Bedside manner was really important to me so i am a bit nervous of being treated like a number :(
I'm hoping your experience will be better :)
Curious how much you paid? I got an estimate from the coordinator and I’m a little taken a back :(
How much did they quote you if you don't mind me asking
You look great! Same thing happened to me when I went for a consultation so I decided to keep looking. What was you weight and how much did you pay for the procedure if you don't mind me asking? Hope you are ok and can keep us updated with your results! :)
Wow that's horrible, I was thinking maybe it was just me who had a bad experience. Especially since he is very expensive! I weighed 158 and I'm 5'5 I paid 13,900. As of now I'm doing great, thank god! Just patiently waiting for the weeks to pass lol. I'll be posting more after pics soon :)
What was your price range ? I’m currently losing weight trying to get to 140-150ish before consulting cause I know my BMI is high
I paid 13,900. Thats good bc they recommend to be at your ideal weight before surgery :)
Sorry you went through it but at least he did a phenomenal job on you
Thank you! :) I know I'm so grateful that everything as far as the procedure and my results came out great
Please post more pics.
