Before and after pics

Here are the before and after pics from the office. I think the surgery mostly helped fill in the outer portions of my butt and hips. As far as recovery, I'm back to normal and can run again (that was what took the longest). This will be my last post though now that I'm recovered. You can DM me any specific questions though!

Questions from previous post

I'm 5'8" and 135 lbs. I don't have any good before pictures. I spent years specifically taking pictures that would hide my butt lol. His office said they'll give me the before pictures they took once I get my 3 month pictures taken, so I can post those in a month. I do feel like it made a difference for me, mostly in my silhouette shape. I definitely don't have a fat ass now, but that wasn't my goal and honestly i dont think it was possible given my starting point. I was very flat before (truly like a pancake that just dipped in at the thighs) and I wanted shape mostly and to fill out my pants without them always being loose around the butt. I showed pictures of Normani and Chloe Bailey for the shape (check their IGs) I was going for, but I knew getting their size was just unrealistic. I'd say your best bet is to look at before and after pictures on his website. No surgeon can turn totally flat into huge without combining fat transfer (I didnt have enough to transfer to the butt too). The difference is noticeable to me and people who know me well, but most people don't notice it's different. Honestly it was worth 11k for me because I have a career where that amount of money doesn't really affect me. It was just a question of if I wanted to go through the recovery. If I was spending my life's savings on this or buying this over a new car I needed, I wouldn't think it was worth it. That's just me though because I knew the limitations of the surgery going in.

Pretty much back to normal

9 weeks post op now. I just started being able to sit without the thigh support last week, though it still feels weird. I can only sit for about 30-60 minutes before I get sciatic pain, but it is improving. Butt is still pretty firm, but starting to soften a little. Definitely won't jiggle like a normal butt though. It says my pictures are too large to upload, so I'll try to compress them and upload tomorrow but I think it looks pretty similar to the 5 week pictures.
