14 Months Post Op

Well it's been 14 months post op and I wanted to write down my updates.

My butt at 9 months was the perfect size but at 14 months it looks only slightly plumper than my original butt. Either there was a lot of swelling that needed to go down or a ton of my fat got re-absorbed. I had 400ccs in each cheek so I didn't get a lot to begin with but now it looks a lot more like what I started with before the surgery. I'm currently debating going for a second round but I may not have any good donor sites left. I could do my upper back, upper thighs and arms but not sure if enough fat will be available to get the results I want. Especially considering how I'm looking at 14 months post op. Butt looks droopier and flatter now than it did at 6 and 9 months, pretty disappointed. I know it looks different because my clothes look different now than they did at 6 and 9 months.

Would appreciate any of your thoughts/advice on what to consider for a second round.

I would highly recommend and also repeat my procedure with Dr. Rao if given a choice again. He is the consummate professional and the staff at CPS have excellent customer service. I am very happy with my results. Regarding the results, I've always had a pretty decent ass for an asian but it definitely looks so much bigger and rounder with the BBL. However, it still looks very very NATURAL. You will not get a cartoon butt with Dr Rao and I was very very concerned with that. That is not to say the results are too conservative. Dr Rao just does what he does best and makes your body look as if it was what you should have been born with and what was always yours to begin with.
