Well It basically goes like this! i've always wanted to feel better about myself after losing so much weight i decided i was going to start making myself feel like i always thought who i was suppose to be.. I recently got a bbl done a week & four days ago! Although i love the shape that i got i think i might have to get a revision done when i am healed i hope & pray that my doctor doesnt charge me anything because i simply cannot afford it! i saved $8g in a year and sacrificed so much to start my journey to love the skin im in!!! Hoping & praying everything goes great!!!

Dr. Stein is a doctor I'm looking into as far as a bbl, im from Chicago as well and I have been on here researching doctors in the chicagoland area...it seems like I'm having a hard time finding the right doctor, I have came across other doctors names on here from Chicago and im going to set up consultation dates with them one being Dr. Stein...would u refer him to others or not. I hope everything works out for you :-)

Hey sherunit i honestly can't say he would work for you or not but i regret going there! Every case is diffrent ill say. i heard good & bad reviews on him i went with my gut & i honestly wish i haven't ! Don't get me wrong they are very professional there but he just didn't catch what i personally was looking for! i wanted what every girl wants an HOUR GLASS shape. my hips didn't change at all there still the same one leg is bigger then the other for me & that's what i went in & told him but my left came out looking even bigger uh!! my surgery was at 12pm & i didn't get seen til 5pm... i know he was taking his time on the other women before me & that is totally understandable i just feel like a complete fool. Everyone there know's how hard i worked to get this done & i was super excited i guess a little to excited or maybe i just have bad luck!!! Anyway it's ok to go check him out just make sure you look around & set up other consultations before making your final decision! I hope everything goes well for you & wishing you happy results & happy healing!!!!!!

bbl

Melissa29476
Hello ladie's of realself! i am sorta new to this site & barely started reading & looking around! I can't believe how many women who look amazing after getting bbl's like Dr.Perry's patients i think from florida. Dr.kim from beverly hills Dr.Salama from miami i think as well just amazing!!!! i wish i were one of you's!!!! I recieved a bbl two weeks ago today & it's disappointing. its not at all what i expected! I saved so much $ within just one yr & sacrificed all i had to give & i feel like a complete fool!!!!!! i cannot believe this mistake i made! i am a single mother of a four year old boy & a legal guardian of my 14 yr old sister i am 22 yrs old who lives in chicago illinois i spent $8050 & it just slipped through my fingers & went down the drain with the rest of the [RS bleep]!!!! i cry everyday & every time im on this site! some people are just not that lucky! It alway's happens to the people who have nothing to give but do so much to be happy & still aren't! i never been happy with my body i was very big as a teenager & after giving birth to my son in 2010 i started to excercise & get my life on track i lost over 100 pounds i felt great about that but now about how your body looks after! i need a tummy tuck & breast lift with implants but this is reality & things cost $$$$$$. i decided i was going to start saving to make my body better & to really feel like a complete women! i am so dissapointed i cannot believe this happened to me i was so damn excited to get one procedure down & only have two to go now i feel like i've never even started!!!! Back to square one :,( I hope when my 6 month healing is here that everything will work out & that i get to where i deserve to be!!!!! I thank Dr.William Bruno in hollywood who has greatfully said he will try to help me out when the time comes!!!!! Praying everyday!!!!!!!!!! I do not criticize my surgeon i just wish he captured more of what i wanted!!!!!!

Hey Lady, I have not had a procedure done yet but my friend did and she got knots in her but I think its normal because her doctor told her they were going to come...she let me feel one and she say she massage them so they can go away, but call your doctor just to be on the safe side....how is everything else going???
