Not Happy

$8,500
While Dr. Shifrin is an amazing surgeon who gave me a better overall shape, I feel I simply paid for liposuction and not a Brazilian butt lift. My unhappiness with my BBL result, or lack thereof, is the reason I haven't posted a picture. I started with 39 inch hips and ended up with 39 inch hips. It is advised I wait till my 3 month mark to see the final results but I knew when I woke up from surgery and saw my results that I wasn't happy, and is still the same feeling 2 months later. Unfortunately, I spent $8,500 with the expectation of a big butt but received only a better shape, and am forced to seriously consider a round 2. For the smaller girls that expect a booty with projection, I advise you make that very clear because in retrospect, that's what I should have done.

How do you take this dang garment off?!
It just won't go down from my hips...partly cause I end up screaming bloody murder from the pain. I've only had it on for a day but I need to use the restroom for a BM! I don't think I can wait a few days till the garment is more forgiving. Lol.

Made it to the other side!!! I was Shifrin's first patient at 6:30am...thank goodness. I'm about 12 hours post and just now shaking off the anesthesia but still dizzy.
So, I arrived at 6:30, filled out my paperwork and was called back about 10 minutes later. The nurse put my IV in and let me get a full bag of fluids before getting escorted to the surgery room. The wonderful anesthesiologist gave me a sedative which burned! About a few seconds later it was lights out!
I woke up shivering thinking I was still in surgery. Lol. Nope, I was in recovery. The nurse forced me to eat cookies but I was just not hungry whatsoever. Plus, I had cotton mouth so eating dry cookies didn't help.
Shortly after, I was wheeled out and on my way to my hotel, where I am now. Ina scale of 1-10, my pain level is a 2. My discomfort from laying on my stomach is an 8. I hate it because my breasts get in the way and my arms go numb. Whatever though...beauty is pain!!!
I've been up and walking since getting back in from surgery. Haven't had much pain to prevent me from doing so. I can pee on my own by squatting over the toilet with the P-EZ. I'm super swollen but it seems to be going down after each pee. Lol.
So far, I love my shape!!! I will post pics in a few days. :)
