Thin Girl Seeks Natural Curves

I'm a thin girl seeking curves. At 5'4" and around 140 pounds, I have spent the last several years working out, focusing on lifting and building my glutes. Nothing helped build mass on my ass.

I wanted a BBL under local anesthesia by a board-certified plastic surgeon and Dr. Chia was the one. He's super knowledgeable and most importantly, REALISTIC. With my frame, he let me know what I could realistically expect.

I booked the appointment immediately and got a date about a month later. I'll keep you all posted on my journey.

My goal is to build a bigger butt and fill out my hip dips. I do NOT want a Kim Kardashian/Instagram model look. Ideally, I'd want a shape that is more athletic than bodacious.

BBL With Local Anesthesia Was Easy Breezy

I just got my BBL procedure. The entire process took about 2 hours. I am pretty small so they only liposuctioned my flanks. I got about 400 ccs in each side.

The process itself was incredibly easy. I took the pill cocktail prior but since I had eaten a big breakfast, I didn’t feel loopy at all. I was able to talk to Dr. C and the nurse in attendance the entire time.

Although the poking from the cannula felt a little uncomfortable at times, I’d say the overall pain was a 2/10 for me. Mind you, I’ve had several tattoos and smartlipo prior so I have a high pain tolerance.

When I was done, my butt and hips were HUGE. I know the swelling will go down but I’m gonna miss how juicy I was looking.

I took one hydrocodone pill at night and slept pretty good. The next morning, my hips were SOREEEEE but one painkiller was enough to relax me.

So far so good!

Hey girl great results !
Were you still very swollen about three weeks after surgery ? I’m getting mine done under local anesthesia as well, and heard it’s less swelling and trauma than general. I have to travel three weeks after my surgery so wanted to get an idea of how I will be feeling then and my body.
Thanks !!
Also how much of your fat stayed ? My surgeon said he could put about 400cc in each for me as I’m thin as well.

Day 3 Back to Normal

It’s day 3 and I’m feeling pretty good. I stopped the prescription pain killers and switched to Tylenol. The hydrocodone made me nauseous and I don’t want to get hooked.

My swelling has subsided but my flanks are still tender.

I’m eating normally and can walk a few miles a day without being tired.
