The Results Are Worth the Pain!!

Overall the experience wasn't so bad. My SX was at 5:30am. I met with Dr.Sergio and the anesthesiologist both were nice and took time to answer my questions and put me at ease. I shared my over all body desire and Dr. Sergio shared his thoughts as well. When I woke up, I was very alert and felt no pain. I was laying on my back and I was able to turn on my side myself. I slept off and on most of the day. I had to use the female urinal for the first 2 days. I walked around my room through out the day and then went out side for short periods. I had a drainage apt at the Dr. Sergio office the next day.. It was a little painful but needed. Then my nurse did one the next day. After that I did my own with a massager that I bought. As far as the pain level for me, I was more sore than anything...Not much pain. I did keep the meds in me up through the 3rd day, then I started weaning myself off and just using Tylenol. The plane ride home was okay, I requested Wheelchair assistance so I didn't walk through the airport. As far as the results, the swelling is going away pretty good, if I don't wear my faja I notice that I swell. My sides are still a little tender. My booty has started to soften up by I still am semi numb in my lower back with a little stiffness in the middle. Other than that, I am moving around pretty good. I have to admit that it is very hard to not sit on your butt, I bought a BBL pillow but it wasn't much help. I laid on my sides and stomach as much as I could but I sit on my butt a little each day. I still have awesome results. I'm almost 2 weeks post op and I return to work on Monday. I decided to take 3 weeks off because I do lot of sitting and did not want to be carrying a bbl pillow everywhere, but I'll probably use some sort of pillow to relieve the pressure off my buttocks. I just don't want people asking questions at work..Lol I love my new body. I haven't had a waist since highschool and I have nice hips and a booty!  I'm glad I made the decision to go through with this procedure and I hope I maintain a good portion of the fat that was transferred. You can read my other reviews and posts for before and after pics.

18 days Post Op

I have very little pain, other than the nerves reconnecting. I am still a little tender on my sides but otherwise I feel great. My booty has went down a little and I'm okay with that because it was huge. He input 2000 cc in each buttock. It looks great though. It has started to soften up some and I have a little swelling still.

3 Days Post OP!!!

I made it to the land of Big Booty. My Anesthesiologist and Dr. Alvarez were wonderful. I haven't been in much pain just extreme soreness and that could be worse than pain.... I slept most of the first day, I did get up and walk a little bit. There is a lot of swelling and fluid, so until that goes away it will alter your results. I had a lymphatic drainage at the surgeon office. That helped relieve some pressure. I can't wait to see the contouring after the swelling... I'm posting a few post of pictures.. I'll post more later. Though I'm not in alot of pain, I tire out so easily.
