Little bit about me.
25 years old female with 1 child.
height: 5ft 4
Weight: about 133 pounds
waist: 29.5 inches. not sure about my hip measurement.

I've decided to write this review because i haven't really seen too many BBL reviews from anyone in ireland. That made shopping for supplies really difficult as the brand names are different and we don't have a lot of the same shops over here.

About Round 1:
I had round one bbl in Antalya, Turkey at mediface clinic. They're great and the patient co-ordinator Meltem is awesome but right from about 4 weeks post op i knew i'd need a round 2. they did a great job, don't get me wrong, but they really could have taken out more fat. i had lipo of the abdomen, flanks and back with fat transfer to my bum. But the lipo wasn't aggressive enough. they only took out fat from my lower abdomen and flanks but i still don't have much definition in my waist and my but is pretty much the same as before(maybe slightly fuller at the bottom but definitely only a moderate increase in size). Recovery was tough but nothing like what i read on here, no bruising or need for drains or massages or nothing. if i remember correctly, i was only in turkey for a weekend. Sx on friday and back home by monday.

Anyhoo, i'm about 2 weeks from surgery now and i'd really appreciate any tips or advice on preparing for this.
I leave Dublin on Saturday January 17th, Sx on 19th and leaving DR on 24th.
Although i'm dreading it, I'll take some pre op pics tomorrow.

what made you decide on Dr. Yily? right now I'm debating between Dr. Duran and I don't know? ..... a Dr. that also does fat grafting to the breast.
User Avatar
January 8, 2016
TBH it was between Duran and yily. I sent both of them emails And yily responded first. Also, I've seen more of Yily's work on slimmer girls than Duran. And although Duran gives more ass, I'm more interested in having hips and teeny waist. I also need ass, but not before I get my hips.lol. does Duran do fat transfer to breast? I know yily doesn't
January 9, 2016
Thanks so much, its hard to find pictures of the different Dr s before and after photos I am on the larger side size 14 wanting a flat stomach and some inner thigh lipo? I have plenty of ass but I'm worried about If I lose weight maybe going from a size 14 to 10 and get a tummy tuck with lipo how would it effect my overall results.... like would I need my breast done too? I see I still need to do more research thanks again and good luck with your sx

If u follow yily and Duran's ig, they have lots of pictures. You're on the right path because I feel like d best results I've seen are bbl with TT. I see a lot of ladies get all three tt, bbl and ba.I can't wait to see your results, whatever you decide to go with, I'm sure you'll look amazing both yily and Duran are King.

Hey babe , are you taking a Boppy pillow or Bbl pillow ? Xx
User Avatar
January 8, 2016
I couldn't find a bbl pillow here so I'll get one of those pillows you get to prop babies up. Are those what boppy pillows are? I used a yoga mat for round one.
January 8, 2016
Yes that's a Boppy pillow , used for propping up babies , everyone says there deffo needed, im almost done packing but worrying lol, it just needs to hurry up now

January 8, 2016
I know. I'm currently doing exams and can't think about anything else. I think I'm almost finished packing too. Just need to get the pillow. Do you think I can find them at smyths
January 9, 2016
The only place I'm seeing them is online Ebay , Amazon and mothercare, not sure about smyths, but I've been told anything we don't have we can get in the DR as there are lots of surgery shops xx

Surgery shops?? Awesome. I'll just get that there then. I wanted a spare faja to but confused about what to get.so I'll just wait too. I still have my stage 2 compression garment from last time. So I'll hold on to that for now till I go shopping in d DR

Ughh...I have no waist definition. Or hips. Please Yily help me out here. Give me shape. I hope I have enough fat to harvest to give me a nice bum and hips. I'm getting liposuction on abdomen, waist, flanks, back and inner thighs.
I've been trying to put on weight. Even though Sasha, Yily's assistant said not to.

You have a nice figure , you are going to look bomb girl ! I'm trying to figure out if I'll have to gain weight as well. I think I have enough fat in my stomach and upper back to harvest a nice shape but you never know lol
User Avatar
January 4, 2016
Oh I hope. Girrl u have a great bum to start with so you should'nt need a lot of fat to make it popping. But I get your dilemma tho. U don't want to go through all that and not have the best bum u could possibly get..
January 4, 2016
Thank you , you went for a bbl before ? In Ireland ?
User Avatar
January 4, 2016

what recovery house did u choose at?
User Avatar

Hey hun,I just posted an update about where I'll be staying.

Copied from update:

I will be staying at a recovery house I found on airbnb. It's owner's name is Carolina. She's really awesome and had surgery in cipla 2 years ago she's really knowledgeable about the whole process and gave me lots of valuable tips. I'm staying with her for 7 nights and paid $310. She doesn't include transport to and from the airport but she'll help you organise one. She goes with you to your appointments and will pretty much take care of you through the whole process. I kinda preferred that to because it'll feel like going with a friend or family member as opposed to staying in a place with staff on rotation(just my personal preference). I also read her reviews on airbnb and she seems like a great person . She will also organise my over night caretaker ($25 per day) and post op massages $10 per massage (I'll be getting 2 per day since they're so cheap.) I'll attach the pictures she sent me and from airbnb. And will update you guys on my experience as I go along.
