I will be 5 weeks post op tomorrow. I’m not sure how I feel about it yet. I feel as if my thighs abs butt look the same. And my stomach is still lumpy. I had lipo on upper and lower abs, sides and outer thighs and fat grafting to my hips and butt. I will say everybody was really nice though from my pre op to the day of surgery.

Lol I do not have body dysmorphia honey. And it’s been 7 months and i still have major lumps and unevenness. When you make a $13,000 investment, you expect a return. But thanks for your opinion though.

What are you talking about? I did and still do everything I am suppose to do post op. Maybe you should read instead of posting unnecessary comments that has nothing to do with the complaint.

Yea this is 11 months post op for me and I still have lumps and bruises as well. I did everything I was supposed to but still didn’t end up with the best results unfortunately

You definitely look different to me. Especially the definition in your abs. 5 weeks isn’t that long. I was told 2-6 months to see optimal changes. This looks great to me. Good luck!

Different everyday.

My stomach looks different almost everyday. It’s still real hard at the top and it causes a real deep crease. There’s are some areas I’m still not crazy about but overall I am happy with the results so far.

When where you able to start exercising again?
June 2, 2018
They say you can start light exercising at 2 weeks and then full on at 4. I started at 3 weeks and took it slow and worked my way up from there.

Oh nice! Thank You!!!! I have my surgery with Dr. Ver Halen on the 18th!!! Are you liking the outcome of your BBL?
June 7, 2018
I like it so far. At first I was scared because it felt big but it was just swelling so it goes down a lot.

Hi. I was wondering how your surgery went with Dr Ver Halen and how much you paid. Do you like your results? I have a consultation with him at his Colleyville office next week.
August 8, 2018
Hi, I think you look amazing. I wanted to know how soon you were able to resume with everyday activities such as work following the procedure. I am considering laser Lipo because I just don’t have time to take weeks off from work to recover. Did you do the BBL or just Lipo?

3 month checkup

bonnierios
I went to my 3 month up checkup. And I have to say I am not happy. I look worse than before and have lumps and unevenness all over. To make matters worse Dr. Van Halen doesn’t even work there anymore so I don’t know if a touch up is possible because the dr I saw at my checkup acted like he could care less.

September 7, 2018
I meant who was the new doctor that you saw...since dr van Helen left?

I’m not sure what his name was, he didn’t introduce himself.

I’m considering this procedure. I’ve booked a consultation. Providing explanations/objective medical reasoning behind dissatisfying results breaks no privacy etc.. it helps prospective patients make informed decisions.
