BBL with Yily! Switching to Vecchio in Boston

{first 4 pics of me now (pre-op) & the rest are wish pics and things I lifted from the site for what to buy prior, etc}

I have researched this site for a year and have decided that I like Yily's work the very best. I got a quote recently for $3500 but then they just made a totally inclusive package for $4400+ that includes a recovery house for a week, medicines, and transportation to and from the airport and appointments. Since I am going alone, I may have to opt for that package, although I'm a bit sketched at which recovery house they use and the reviews of that place (there was one RH that was blamed for infecting a handful of girls at once!)
After perusing so many before & after's, I'm convinced Yily is the best at sculpting a sexy body. I have had a BA 10 years ago, which I got the smallest size available and have honestly been convinced one of them deflated completely--- so I do need to get them done over, and thank goodness now Gummi bear silicone is an option, as it wasn't 10 years ago and the whole water balloon feeling would be welcomely replaced with something more natural. However, I do not believe Yily uses Gummi bear implants, and I have not been impressed seeing the incisions these doctors are using by either slicing right down the middle of the breast, or using the nipples which actually look like the heal MUCH better with Yily, but my nipples are far too small to use as an incision spot. The first time I had it done I got the incision under the breast, which I think is best for me although I hated having the scars peek out from a bikini top. Better than a full blown line down the bottom half of my breast. So, the point of all that is that I will have to wait to get my boobs done, and will probably pay full price in Boston to get it done with minimal scarring and to get the Gummies. I should note, if you're thinking of getting them too, I had them under my muscle and I experienced a LOT of pain for at least 6 months and could not sleep on my side without a lot of discomfort.
NOW, BACK TO THE BBL---- Yily knows her curves. I don't see alot of pictures of white girls getting this done but the results I see on other dolls are incredible.
This decision is half a self-satisfying thing and half that I enjoy the power that a beautiful body can bring. I can tell ya, after I got my implants when I was 19 and started a career in audio, I was getting the most amazing jobs in the state and partying with all the legendary rock stars. Since there are hardly any women in the profession already, my peers resented me for having an upper hand by my looks. But guess what, after being the "personality" companion to the hottest girls in my town growing up, I was so done with them reaping all the benefits solely due to looks. You can't underestimate how much better people treat you, want you around, and the opportunities they'll give you, just because they are attracted to you. It may sound shallow but it makes me think of the quote in House of Cards that said something like "Everything is about sex, except for sex. Sex is about power." I know that the extra curves I'm planning for will bring me power. As a woman, in this culture, I don't find anything wrong with using a man's weakness to allow a woman a step up-- any step up for any woman is a great thing, if you ask me. Use their weaknesses to strengthen your future. When I imagine myself as a Yily doll, I can just see the men falling to their knees to give me what I want. With all that perky breasts alone provided, I can only imagine the impact of having the full package of a tiny waist and nice big round booty. I'm sure all of this makes me seem calculating as a [RS bleep]. Well, after experiencing both sides of the coin (pre-op & post op), I have no problem facing the reality of our shallow world and letting it work for me. I don't think it's a bad thing- I've just learned to play the game. I can't wait to drive men crazy and to fill my ex's with deep regret. I can't wait to get in a bikini for the first time in my life and not be insecure about my giant love handles I've had since I was 12 years old and everyone thought I was anorexic (which tells me that no matter how skinny I become, those handles aren't going anywhere). I see the transformation of these women and it just makes me want to jump on a plane and do the operation today. However, after reading about the infections that some of the girls had (possibly related to an unclean recovery house), I know I must give the full 2 months to do the proper pre-op care of vitamins, eating iron rich food, and gaining weight. I bought a package for hot yoga & pilates (20 classes) and have been confused if I should do them now and just continue eating a lot, or to hold off until after recovery to do them.
One of my bigger concerns that I haven't found answers to is that I don't want a TT. I find the scar along the stomach unsightly and a dead giveaway. Will my stomach be sagging afterward if I don't elect to have that nasty scar?? What can be done to fix that?? I have never had children, although I've held at least 25 extra pounds for a couple of years and my stomach is certainly large. I don't have stretch marks on it and I don't want to have a ton of sagging skin. If that is what's to be expected by getting lipo without the TT, I considered possibly going to Sono Bello afterward to use their lazerlipo, which also tightens the skin but would probably cost around $4000 to do. I had chin lipo almost a year ago for around that cost and it was totally worth it. I no longer have a turkey face or worry about what I look like when I lay down next to my lover, or when I sing my neck doesn't inflate like a frog. After a couple months of wearing a face compressor to sleep, I was fine and the results have lasted with a natural look. Made a big difference in my confidence. I actually have a jawline now.
The date I'm looking at is the first week of February, maybe the 3rd. I figure this will give enough time that by spring I would be able to anticipate a bikini-wearing summer. I have to book my appt soon but I would really love a buddy for the whole experience. Anyone else planning to go then? Please contact me.

I will post my pre-op pic's for y'all. You can see my boobs were already done ten years ago and will see why I'm thinking to get them redone. Even though they look small in the pic, I wear a 34D, so I assume once the BBL is done I can still wait to get them redone if I want. It's just that one boob is probably an entire cup size smaller than the other.

This is what Yily's office recently sent me---- it sure solves a lot of problems for the many girls coming from out of the country, although I have to wonder which recovery house they send you to. Another review said that 5 girls went to a certain recovery house and all 5 ended up with infections in the hospital. That is definitely worrisome. But being alone in a resort doesn't sound any safer. I thought I'd share this info for anyone else looking:

About the procedures

The day of surgery
The night before the surgery don't eat or drink anything after 10 pm. You have to be in the clinic at 7 am, you’ll have the test done, the consultation with me and then the surgery. My assistant will be with me to translate and for a better communication.

After surgery
I will give you instructions and recommendations for your recovery. You will stay 1 night in the clinic. You have to wear the garment for 3 months and can’t spend more than 45 minutes a day without it during these months.

Anesthesia
We usually use continuous epidural block. Although some patients prefer general anesthesia, it is at the discretion of the anesthesiologist. He is a trusted professional and knows what anesthesia is the best for each patient.

Breast Augmentation
The implants are placed under the muscle. The stitches are absorbable; they do not need to be removed. I do not transfer fat to breast because of the issue of breast cancer.

Tummy Tuck
The tummy tuck scar/incision is 4cm from the pubic line. I use stitches that dissolve, so they do not have to be removed. I cannot tell you how many inches your waist will be reduced as that is dependent on your diastasis and the separation of your muscles. This will be determined during surgery. You will have a drain after surgery that will collect excess fluid. This drain will be removed in 7-14 days, depending on your recovery. Please note it is recommended you wait at least 1 year to get pregnant after having this procedure.

BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift)
This procedure entails grafting fat from other areas of your body and injecting it into your buttocks. I cannot determine how much fat I can graft before surgery. The amount of fat injected in the buttocks will depend on how much fat your buttocks can accept and your hip size. The fat will be injected in all directions as long as it does not compress the sciatic nerve. Too much fat injected in the buttocks can cause necrosis or form abscesses. This mainly occurs when the patient does not have proper post-op care. After having a BBL you CAN sit on your butt and sleep on your back.

Important notice about BBLs: Most of the butts in the “wish pics” that some of my patients send me are made of PMMA. I do not use PMMA. I solely do fat grafting and inject the fat in the buttock. I will always try to give my patients their desired results, but we have to be aware that there are limits when injecting fat.

My hemo is 13.2~~ yay! The doctor says I'm a perfect candidate for surgery.
On Friday I am seeing Dr. Yarmachek in Boston about correcting my botched nose job from ten years ago. Yea, I waited that long with a crooked nose. Why? Honestly I was horrified that if I let them touch it again, it would come out even worse. What's worst about all of that is that I didn't even want a nose job. I had seen the doctor when I was 19 because after moving to Boston, my asthma was so bad I was just constantly light-headed. I couldn't breathe through my nose since I broke it in second grade, and hardly had any sense of smell. My mother jumped on the chance to send me to Boston's best rhinoplasty guy and must have told him all the awful things she thought about my normal appearance, because the guy really encouraged me to let him "shave that bump" and "refine that tip" while he was "going to be at it anyway" telling me that either way "the shape would change." So I consented. I signed away some paper just before surgery. And you know what? I'm almost 100% certain he let a student hack away at my face. They wrapped it wrong so that I immediately saw the huge bulge on the left side which hardly existed on the other side. Goodbye, wanting to take ANY pics of myself from the right side throughout ALL of my 20s! Goodbye confidence to perform my music, the dreams I held as a young girl! Same goes for my breast implants I had done at the same time, one of which WAS the bigger ended up becoming the smaller size and for years I've been convinced that it's totally deflated in there, although after a couple years the surgeon tried to convince me otherwise, and tried to tell me the nose operation was an improvement. It was not. So I am very cautious about even the Best, Top Rated do anything to me. And that's also why I am relieved that Yily is very upfront about her assistants' presence and activity in the operating room, and that I have been able to see the hundreds of pictures and read about others' experiences for an entire year before committing to this. She says that she does all of the grafting but that she allows her assistants to clean her up. That's okay. I just can't go through the experience again of being told you're in the best, most capable hands only to find myself looking like a botched job all over. I guess I am not vain enough that most people have never assumed I got work done. I would like to keep it that way. I'd like to make them wonder.
