BBL w/ DRA FATIMA ALMONTE- Dominican Republic

LOSING WEIGHT

WORTH IT$4,650
Since I've been home I dropped approximately 8lbs..
I know you're suppose to lose a bit of weight after lipo but I didn't anticipate losing this much so soon.. I definitely don't mind but I think that is what also contributed to my butt getting smaller...

According to RS docs 1L of fat aspirate is equivalent to 2 lbs..
Dr Almonte removed 6.7 L..

8 lbs down and another 5.4lbs to go...

I am dying to hit the gym and will start this weekend.
I know it's a bit soon but I really feel good and pretty much back to normal.
I'll take it easy and won't go super heavy with weights and lay off on squating for now but I can't wait to be able to go back and GET IT INNNNNN again.

AFTER READING COUNTLESS POSITIVE REVIEWS FOR DRA ALMONTE. I DECIDED TO GO WITH HER INSTEAD OF DRA ROBLES. THERE WAS NOTHING DRA ROBLES AND OR HER STAFF DID TO MAKE ME LOSE INTEREST. I JUST FELT MORE COMFORTABLE WITH DRA ALMONTE. MY RS SISTERS AND THE REVIEW OF THEIR JOURNEYS PLAYED A HUGE ROLE IN MY FINAL DECISION. I WILL POST AN UPDATED REVIEW POST OP.

3 week post op update!

Hi dolls,

I can't believe it's been exactly 3 weeks already!
I totally started sitting the past few days.. Driving again..it's crazy how you take something as simple as SITTING for granted i'm tired of standing, kneeling, and being on my stomach. My bruising is almost all gone. My feet are no longer swollen.. My face doesn't swell up anymore either (THANK GOD) i pretty much feel 100% despite the awkward lipo swelling tightness. Bbl post-op was a breeze! My scars are tiny and healing well but the LIPO healing process is WORKKKK. I know it gets better over time but it's so awkwardly uncomfortable to be in clothes without my faja on. I started alternating between my faja and a waist trainer. I feel like my butt has gotten alot smaller and my waist is still so swollen so i know i wont see actual results until at least 3 months but i am happy with my results i mean anything was better than that pancake hipless junk i had. Dra Almonte really filled out my hips and focused on giving me shape as oppose to a DONK with projection. I can't say I am disappointed because it's what I asked for but now seeing that my projection has gone down so much I'm considering a ROUND 2 LOLLL I definitely need to heal at least for one solid year before I consider so I have time to think about it...

My man has been allllll ova dat asss since i been back hes been grabbin my hips rubbin on my booty non-stop. So much for his annoyin ass sayin it didn't look much different :p

Anyway, I attached a video update below!

BUTT DEFLATING

Maybe I'm paranoid.. but i feel like the size of my BUTT has gone drastically since I been home.
I don't sleep on my back and I barely EVER sit. I swear the plane ride killed my newly grafted fat cells.
If the FLUFF is REAL it needs to hurry up and happen cuz I did not go all that way to come back with deflated booty :( What makes it worse is my lip swelling won't go down.. my belly is bulging over and my back is extra SWOLLLLLLL.

My boyfriend told me he notices my hips are fuller but she did not fill out my booty that much.
I mean I did say I wanted natural curves but for my man to say it doesn't look much different is ANNOYING AS [RS bleep]. I'm sure I'm having a moment but forreal.. where did my butt go :(

Upload a pic so that we can compare it. I think your ass is fine, your just stressing. And your boyfriend is just joking, when have we women listen to what they have to say.... Don't start now just be positive wait a couple of weeks and then you will see.
Grrr!!! men's are insensitive well some man lol my husband was wonder after having my second child if I was sure that the doctor had not left another baby in my stomach?in that time I almost cried now just laugh because I knew I didn't was his intention hurt me It's just they are like that don't think to talk
They say sometimes it goes down then it plumps back out
Also so tell me what you used - what you didn't use out of everything you purchased for surgery and what you wish you would have purchased
would u mind sharing updated pics. Please
