I am so excited to be 26 days away from my surgery date.
I'm nervous about what to expect as far as pain, and I really hope that my body comes out the way I am imagining it to. I love the work of the Brazilian docs, but honestly afraid of going out of the country when I have a blood condition that causes my blood to clot. I chose a local doctor that's only 2 hours away that had great results and reviews, and I have spoken to enough people that had great experiences with him.
I got my consultation in June of last year, but finally put my deposit down in December.
I went back today after deciding to add a BBL to my surgery date. I have not seen any pics of Dr.Cochran's BBL but I'm confident it would turn out fine. He did say he does not think I need one due to the fact that when I get my lipo and tuck it's going to push it up some. I said if I'm going to go through with this I want it all Boom, Bang, Pow body lol

Day of treatment
Surgery Complete
JaneBond007February 24, 2015
I completed my surgery yesterday. My surgery was scheduled for 7:30 am and soon as I arrived we got right to it.
I took my clothes off and changed into a gown, then u go to a small room to take a few photos of your body. Dr Cochran came in marked my body.
I then went to the surgery room where an IV was placed in my neck. I am a big chicken when it comes to needles but the thought of this sounds worse than it actually is.
I was out cold and woke up thinking I was still waiting to go to sleep for surgery to begin lol. The rest was a blur as I went home. The furthest I was able to make it was my couch chaise where I have been every since. I have went to the restroom a couple times and that's the only time I really feel pain. The pain really is not that bad.
I am all bandaged up so I have not seen my results yet. I have the wrap Dr Cochran provided around my stomach but plan on putting on the garment I purchased tomorrow after my first shower.
I had my mom snap a pic of my but in my sweats when I went to the restroom. I can see the roundness that haS come. I only had 40cc put in each butt cheek. My butt was already big but I needed some filled in right in the middle of my butt.
Can't wait to post pics tomorrow.
Also the nurses gave my mom all the instructions on what needed to be done with my bandages, so she was an expert when I got home on what to do next. They told me before surgery but I could not remember,

Welcome to the flat side! You don't feel sore now, but it will come - especially where you have the lipo. Take your meds every 4 hours to begin with and don't wait until you feel pain. The steady stream of Hydro will keep the pain away. Try to walk as often as you can, but don't overdo it. Walk less, but more often rather than walking more, less often - if that makes sense. Best wishes to you and your recovery!

Sore day
JaneBond007February 25, 2015
Day 2 I felt airless more sore. I finally made it upstairs to my bed which feels great. I got the itches people have described, so it's a little annoying right now at 3am. Dr. Cochran called to check on me today, which was great. I noticed my inner thoughts were not lippoed, I mentioned to my mom who was at the surgery and he told her for some reason he couldn't. I will ask during my follow up appt more details. My scar looks great. Very low and the tummy is so flat. I can't wait to really see it while standing up.
