Hello My BBL Sisters!

I am soooo happy to finally do something for me. I am 29 years old, married, work and attend school full-time. I am a RN going to school to become a CRNA. I was born and raised in Miami, FL but recently relocated to ATL, GA. I have 3 kids (12, 8, and 4) and all boys. I was trying for a girl but now I am like the hell with that. I’m so done with having kids. I don’t have time or the money to take care of anymore babies. It time for me to do me.

I weigh 160 lbs and I’m 5”3” feet. I hate my body. My breast is too big in my opinion. I wear a size 38DD. I have a big ugly gut and a flat butt. Nobody in my family have an A$$ and I mean nobody not my mother, sisters, or aunties even cousins. NOBODY!! Anyway, I have been thinking about the BBL procedure for about 3 years now, but this is my first time ever actually trying to get it done.

Back in July I had a free consultation with Dr. Okoro’s Physician assistant. She was very nice and down to earth. He seems to do great BBL. The only one problem is the price. I think it is too high. I don’t mind spending the money but I really don’t want to. She quoted me 8,695.00 for liposuction of the full back and abdomen and fat transfer with 1 garment. After the consultation, I kind of forgot about it. So one day, my friend and I started talking about getting the BBL procedure and then she told me about this realself.com. I completely fell in love with this website. I mean I am on this websites like EVERYDAY, EVERY HOUR, if I can. I just can’t help myself. I am so excited to see the others girl’s result and read about what their experiences were.

Now I have been looking into Dra. Robles and Dra. Yily. I really hate the idea of going out of the country to get this procedure but it’s cheaper and the doctor’s pretty much gives you the same results and you can stay at a recovery house. I really love the way Dra. Yily does her sculptures. I also looked into Dr. Azurin, Dr Jimmerson, Dr. Salama and Dr. Sant Antonio. Dr. Sant Antonio is located in Weston, FL. He says he charges 5,200 for liposuction of the full abdomen and full back and fat transfer no more than 500cc in each cheek per Florida law. One my friend told me about him, but on his websites I don’t see any pictures of his BBL. When I call the secretary says “he does really really nice work, but he doesn’t have any pictures up on the websites.” I ‘m like well if I can’t see his work why the hell would I want him to work on my body.

Have anyone ever heard of this Doctor? I really would like to have this procedure by the end of January or early February. I have so much going on and I am so undecided, but I got to move fast. I will add so pictures of myself later. Bye for now!!

Hi there, welcome and thanks for sharing your journey with us!

I haven't heard anyone talking about Dr. Antonio and he isn't a doctor on RealSelf, so there's no review for him here. However, have you asked his staff if they can put you in touch with any former patients? Some doctors do this, so you can speak to others about their experiences.

Good luck and please do keep us updated with your progress!

Good Afternoon my BBL sisters,

After weeks of researching, I have finally decided to let Dra. Yily to perform my BBL. I am schedule on January 11, 2013 and I will be the second patient. Now, the only thing that I am worried about is my hemoglobin level. I already know it always run low. I have started taking my vitamins but I am afraid that when I get to Dominican Republic, she will have to turn me away because my hemoglobin is below 11. What do you guys think I should do?? I’m starting to think maybe I need to push my date back for a later date in January, but school is about to reopen, my best friend is getting proposal to on her birthday which is January 30, and I’m expected to be there, my sister’s baby shower is January 19, and I am the Matron of honor for my brother-in- law wedding in March 3. HELPP!!! I need advice. I wish I could just perform the surgery tomorrow. What shall I do sisters?

Please get in touch with Yily and ask her what to do. She is the one that will make the call of surgery or not. I feel she is the best to ask about this situation. Also, you may can go to your doctor and ask if they can test you because you are going out of the country for surgery and see where you stand and go from there. I HTH.

First congrats on chosing your dr. If youre scared about ur results just let yily know u are having ur tests done here before you go in case they are too low. I have seen other girls do the same, they have their test done here and send them over to her. Keep us posted! #TeamYily

Sounds like you really have a lot going on and of course WE are here, so I know how much you wanna get this underway. But with school and your other obligations, you may have to wait until summer break or else disappoint some people during your absence b/c you have opted to take care of yourself!! Choices...choices.....choices. My question to you b/c I am consider Dr. Yily also, did she recommend a tummy tuck for you or just the full abdominal lipo. We are shaped so much alike and I want the TT but if I can see great results w/o it then I up for that too! Less money, less pain and less healing time. But I am willing to endure all of these as long as the end results is what I want.
December 28, 2012
Hello Bigbootybrooklyngirl Thanks for responding to my post. To be honest with you, I was searching for girls with similar stomach with me so that I can see their final results from a lipo procedure. When I sent Dr. Yily my photos, she didn't say I needed or didn't need a tummy tuck. I just told her I want liposuction with BBL and she said ok. Now I have had 2 doctors (Dra. Robles and Dr. Azurin) tell me I need a tummy tuck due to extra skin in the bottom of my belly and 2 others say I don't. So I guess I will have to see. I'm going to leave it for my last option. I really just want a breast reduction with lift and BBL which she said she can perform all at once. So hopeful I wont need a tummy tuck cuz I hate the scar but if I need one I will get it done later in life. What do you think? Do you think we can achieve a flat stomach look with just lipo?

IDK to be honest that is my question as well. I have three children all natural births and I have that little (well not so little) mommy pouch. I think I need a TT but like you, I dont have much fat in the lower front hip area. I think I could benefit from a MINI TT. The scar is much shorter than the full TT and I think I can live with that. I'm not a big fan of the longer cut and neither is my husband. So I'm gonna see if I'm a candidate for a MINI TT. Are Dr. Roles and Dr. Azurin in DR as well? Have you heard good things about them? I haven't heard them mentioned much on here or MMH.
December 28, 2012
Dr. Robles is located in DR. I have heard many great things about her. Many people really love her tummy tucks. The only reason I decided not to go with her is because she does like to transfer a lot fat into your butt. I don't want a lot but I will like to have at least 750cc in each cheeks. Dr. Azurin is in Coral Spring, FL. I heard a little about him, but he wanted to charge me $13,000 for tummy tuck and BBL. Dr. Perry told me i would benefit from a mini tummy tuck if my skin doesn't contract back. The mini tummy tuck is something I would not mind doing because as you said the scar is not so bad. You can search the doctors on this website and read the patients reviews.

GTBodyRight unclear...you said you decided NOT to go with Robles bc she DOES NOT or DOES like to transfer a lot of fat int the butt??
December 30, 2012
Hi!! From what i heard she does not transfer that much to your butt. I have asked and no one gave me an actual amount.

December 30, 2012
I will ask her assistant the average amount of CCs she usually tranfers in her patients. Thanks for the clarity.

GTBodyRight, I've posted my experience with my consult with Dr. Yily's assistant Massiel. Can you tell me your experience and how you're feeling about the language barrier and recovery houses etc.
December 29, 2012
Hi!! My experiences has been ok for right now. I only have been communicating with Dra. Yily through email. I always send my emails in Spanish and she respond to me by the end in the day or early the next day. I have called twice (one day last week and today). I have called all the numbers on the website and was unable to get a hold of anyone. Which I am unhappy about. So I emailed her today around 11am asking for a number that I can speak to someone. As far as the recovery house, I haven't spoken to anyone yet. I just haven't called. I want to make sure everything is ok with Yily before I proceed to the next step. I only speak English. So I use www.spanishdict.com to translate my emails. And when she emails me back in Spanish it translate it in English. I really like it maybe u can try to use it also.

GTBodright- Good info regarding spanishdict.com. I have been in contact with Yily's asst Massiel via text 809 8780526. Try this she emails and text in English. She emailed me info on recovery house $90. daily and the one affiliated with the hospital is $100. daily. Both include three meals on call nurses the recovery house has wifi, the other doesn't. I am leaning toward Dr. Wendell Perry in Florida. HIs prices are reasonable and his availability is good as well. Still researching though, As usual thanks for your response.

I'm going to look up your doctor. I haven't heard his name her on RS where did you hear of him. Have you seen any of his work? How did you come to your decision to use him? What is your quote? I know I'm bombarding you with questions. Yily and Perry at the two in the runnings, but I haven't made any deposits yet so I'm willing to look at other doctors as well.
January 1, 2013
Lol!!!! It's okay. The lady at my local Doobie shop told me about him!! I did my homework spoke with him several times and was completely satisfied! There isn't a lot of mention about him on the forums being that he is a Vet! He's been doing this for a lOng time and doesn't need the publicity. I am getting liposculpture of full abdomen, back, flanks, and arms with transfer to the gluts. Total cost $4500 includes surgery, recovery stay, 1 garment, transport to and from airport. All inclusive package! Check out his website plasti center. Also a co worker of mine is from DR and knows him personally. She said I should have NO FEARS he knows what he is doing and that I shouldn't be afraid being that I am traveling alone.

Sounds real good. I'm gonna reseaech him. Does he give lots of CCs. Some doctors are way more conservative.
January 1, 2013
From what I've seen there is no limits but it looks very tasteful! He actually did a surgical residency in Brazil so he really knows the BOOTY as my co worker said. If you look on his website you will see his education and surgical background. My beautician looks damn good!!! I have seen Dr. Y work as well and I think she does an awesome job!

December 29, 2012
Hey GTBodyRight. I will be in the DR around the same time as you. I am getting my TT/BBL combo with Dr. Robles on 1/17. I will be there 1/15 through 2/1. Maybe I will see you at the Recovery House. Which one are you staying at?
December 29, 2012
Hi Nat7080!! Thanks for responding to my post. I have not select a recovery house yet but I am looking into staying at Jacqueline Spa. I have seen some pic on the website and it looks clean and nice.
December 29, 2012
Hey there, Congrats on your journey! You need to goggle different foods to eat as well as taking iron tablets to help boost up your hemoglobin. If you are too low Dr Yily will give you an iron treatment once your there...I'm not trying to scare you but if you drop below 7 after surgery you will need a blood transfusion the cost is about $250 so make sure you take extra money.
December 29, 2012
Hello Char123!! Thank you so much for responding to my post. I am glad to hear that she would try to do something for me because i refuse to spend $600.00 and get turn down for surgery and I have to come back home without my new me. I you will be going to DR around the time I will be there. Maybe I will get a chance to meet you.
