Hi ! You look amazing ! Congrats I had a surgery appt with Dr Hughes and I wasn't able to go
Bc of an emergency and now having second thoughts. Can you let me know about the surgery center and a little more info? The reviews on him seem too good to be true..

Hey, I thought the same thing. Me and my boyfriend drove all the way to California which is a 20+ hr drive and the night before the sx I was telling him I didn't think I wanted to do it. It got very overwhelming last minute for me. The sx center is pretty small, def nit the nicest. I had to remind myself I wasn't there for the building I was there for the doctor. I could have met him the day before sx but my boyfriend and I had scheduled a tour that we were running late for so I waited til the next day (day of sx). I stayed up late the night be fore and woke up almost 2 hrs late for my sx, they still took care of mr first. I was nervous when I started feeling the anesthesia. 2 seconds later I was out. I woke up, was a little confused, no pain, helped nurses dress me since I was laying on my stomach, and I walked to my car. Everything is described as it was on my review. The sx def was not a big deal. Glad I didn't turn bak from the decision.

I suspect the surgery center located there partially because they probably do a lot of celebrities who definitely want to be low key. No big signs on the doors, back entrance... ;)

A few tips I wish I would have had
1. We are recommended to put tshirt under binder to reduce irritation, but this caused ugly wrinkles in my skin and since binder was so tight and the shirt was pressed up against my skin it caused rash and itchiness .
*wear a spanx type tank top (black shirt in my pic) under the binder. This reduces irritation and itchiness and also doesn't give you those ugly marks you don't want to see the few times you actually get to see yourself naked
2. If not spanx top, buy Benadryl which I was recommended to do so by RS members
3. Smooth move will probably help for the first time you need to poop but keep in mind the antibiotics you are taking can cause diarrhea and I'm sure laxatives won't help
4. Don't drink too much Gatorade. Many people say drink lots off Gatorade or water. Smarter people will know water is a million times better. Gatorade has high sodium and you don't want to feel bloated during this recovery. It may cause more discomfort and also make you feel like you didn't get the best results which would be a horrible feeling to have after you've burned thousands of dollars or put yourself in debt
5. If you feel up to it, do your makeup and your hair, even if you're just around the house alone. Looking good leads to feeling good and you want to feel your best during recovery right? ;)
6. Wear binder low. Top strap should be right UNDER rib
7. If you are healthy pre op, you don't have much to worry about. I made it through the recovery with flying colors and the swelling was only bad the first two days and bruising is not like you're wearing a mini skirt
8. Eat very very light. Your appetite should be suppressed after lipo. Ironic right?
That's all I can think of right now. And honestly the pics don't do the booty justice. When I snap a pic I'm like, no that's not showing it right, that's why I will post video update maybe tomorrow of my stripping down from garment it's already recorded just won't let me update it through my phone.
