Hello ladies. I have been stalking this site for about 5 months now and decided to finally post. I am in the process of shopping for a BBL. I was going to head to Dr. Fisher who looks like he does AMAZING work, but I hate the unprofessional-ism of his staff. So then I came to CG Cosmetics and Spectrum, both housing Dr. O. I don't know which one to go with . Spectrum is saying 4K for 6 areas of lips , labs and garment or 5K all inclusive, 12 labs, 3 massages, garment and compression socks. CG is quoting me 4K for BBL stomach, back and sides. Its like as long as he is there right? Vivian from Spectrum is awesome once you can get her on the phone, and Gelen from CG is awesome too. I just dont know if I should take the CG route. Its like, I want to get more bang for my buck. Anyway, thats my current situation . LOL. I am also hearing so much about Dr. Salhauzer, is he any good? Well this is the beginning of my journey. I just want it to get easier.

Hi ladies. So today I finally got a chance to speak to Dr. Ortega. The phone call was so unexpected. I totally got a call from my coordinator as I was in the elevator on my way out the door. LOL. So after being on hold for 15 minutes he comes on the phone. Unfortunately, he was in between surgeries at 7 PM at a night so I really couldn't get into my questions. I was expecting the nice Dr. O but he was in a rush and trying to accommodate me. I appreciate the call but kinda feel undone , ya know? The questions I was able to ask was so generic. smh. I feel like I still have so many questions to ask him but he is a busy man. It totally put a damper on my plans b/c this is the day I was supposed to make the final decision on this procedure. Don't know what to do at this point....

Finally Booked-January 2015

So today was the day that i made the plunge. I put down my deposit with CG Cosmetics for my BBL with Dr. Mel Ortega. It hasn't hit me yet but I am sure it will as I get closer. I'm also psyched because it has some really cheap flights from the northeast to Miami. It would be nice if I had the support of my friends and the little bit of family I do have, but I don't. Mind you when it was there turn I was always there for them. Oh well, what can you do right. Anyway, if anyone has any tips or any pointers on this surgery i would appreciate it. Slowly but surely i have to buy the things that I need. Only thing I know I need is a faja. Lol. This will be a fun journey. Cheers to the beginning!!

I am staying with Magdalena? I was seeing peoplen talking about Kayla and Assistance 4 life. Kayla didn't cmb and A4L told me like 850 for 5 nights which I think was a little high. Where you staying?
November 28, 2014
Karla told me 600!and something for six nights. I will double check. Who's Magdalena and how much?
November 28, 2014
She comes highly recommended, she is a caregiver. She went up in price $250/surgery date and $100 for every other dated (used to be $80). I guess Karla works at Spectrum so its cheaper.
November 28, 2014
If I do it that way it be more $250 plus $100 that's $ 750.00 it's more.
November 28, 2014
I know I wish someone would come with me but buying their ticket and hotel would be more.

I am actually staying with Moni now at New Body Recovery. She works out to be a little bit pricier, but my massages are included and she and her sisters are LPN's and they have two nursing assistants on site. I like this a lot.

Hey girl, I would just like to wish you luck and to stay strong. You know what you want and go for it. Your real self family is behind you 100%. Keep us updated.

Thank you so much!! I appreciate that. It is just so amazing that when it is your turn noone is there. I will keep strong and I wish that for you as well!! What are you having done>? Will you also be going to Dr. O?
December 2, 2014
Mine was scheduled for Dec 15 but my hemo was a little low so am taking more vitamins, I am waiting for my new date hopefully early January too. Yes am going to Dr. O. I already made my deposit. Do you have a set date in January. I will be praying for you, everything will be just fine.

I am having lipo and BBL. May need a TT but will wait to determine if its a mini or a full as asvised by Dr O. He also said I may not need it depending on how my skin reacts to the Lipo.. how about You? what are you having?
December 16, 2014
I am actually getting a BBL. I was told that I cannot have any more herbalife, for a month which sucks b/c due to my work schedule I was unable to hit the gym. He said no dietary supplements at all. My weight is floating b.t 197 and 200. It is just ridiculous b/c I don't look it , so I just need to go on a diet and hit the gym. Its a struggle...not to mention the holidays are coming and my fam is Caribbean. SMH
December 16, 2014
Hi dont stress the weight, just try to eat healthy an exercise , substitute starch with fruits and vegies you will be fine. Remove the cabs and sugars for the holidays that shouldhelp too. You will look Georgeous after this am sure. My Family is also from the Caribbean and they will be here cooking a storm lol. Keep me posted and happy holidays

Girl that's the same thing that I went through with my friends. A lot of people say a RH ain't necessary if you got someone there with you. A hotel is probably expensive so check airbnb if you honna bring somebody with you.

Likd you i am buying my necessities piece by piece. I just got a Faja and Ab board from http://www.caribbeanshape.com/. I bought a medium based on my current measurements. I also bought the extension. I will buy a smaller one when the swelling starts to go down. http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0271/6209/products/9142_MOKA_fondo_blanco_large.jpg?v=1409348420
December 16, 2014
Yeah I am going to get a faja from there as well. I was told to get two but I was able to get a good deal for the Vedette faja in Black. I didn't want to have a nude one on all the time because I think the black would go better with everything. However, I was told to get two . I got my female urinal and my arnica and just going to buy some wipes. THe nurse I am staying with told me don't go to crazy so I am not. When is your sugery?
December 16, 2014
Hi where did you get the Vedette Faja? I am still waiting on a date from Karla, She said January was booked but would let me know if anyone cancelled. I will be getting the rest of my items at Amazon, I already selected them and left them in my cart just to get an idea of the price lol. Thanks for sharing the recovery house, I am going to look them up ASAP.

Did you already pay your deposit for your surgery? Are you doing it at Spectrum or CG Cosmetics? I got my Vedette from Ebay. The link is http://www.ebay.com/itm/Post-Surgery-Stage-1-Liposuction-Compression-Garment-Faja-Vedette-Black-Nude-Z14-/141510706842? I hope it fits. If it does, I will buy another one because I was told that I needed two. No problem, anything that I can do to help. I was lucky, I got a RT plane ticket straight flights from JFK for $177. I had to scoop that up real quick. LOL
