Hey shasha712 I'm a former Coan patient had TT and Breast reduction 17 months ago. I'm planning my BBL surgery now with him. I have hip dents so really this is for my hips and to add fullness to my butt. Did you have drains? How have your scars from the lipo instruments healed? How much fluff did you lose? Why are you having a 2nd surgery? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks!

Hey, No I did not have drains, my scars are not bad they are very tiny but I don't scar well bc of my nationality I feel like they stay dark longer! But my friend had bbl with Dr. Coan and her scars are already super light plus they scars from bbl are nothing like TT or breast reduction. I didn't loose much fluff at all! I would say maybe 20% if that. You just have to make sure u sick with the healing process and don't place pressure on your bottom for definitely the first two weeks I didn't sit for 3 months bc I heard that's how u get the best results. I highly recommend the doctor Miami booty buddy pillow! And I wanted to get a 2nd round bc I wanted a really big booty lol and more on my sides which Dr.Coan did amazing and gave me everything back he got out I wasn't Big to begin with. And I got lucky a won a drmiami contest which gave me a free bbl with drfeelgood (Mark Lowney) ... So my 2nd bbl is all about my preference nothing at all to do with my work by Dr.Coan bc he does an amazing job!

Hey girlie...just checking in. Do you still like your results? Do you think I'd get a better result if I go to Miami?

Hey girl! So I'm 10 days post op with Coan. All went well. He got 4300 put and put back 2000. My left side is fuller and more swollen. Did you have this issue? Right after surgery I was like 43-44 and I'm already down to 40.5. Kind of bummed about it.

Did your friend do a review for her bbl with Dr Coan? I went to a consult with him and I absolutely loved him but I'm scared he won't give me the results that I see on you. The before and afters he sent to me aren't that great. I guess I watch too much Dr Miami on Snapchat and have different bbl standards lol

I will ask her if she made one! And I completely understand .

Hey doll! Congratulations and you look amazing! I wanted to ask, what do you use the waist trainers/cinchers for? (I mean, do they help with healing after the operation or is it for "maintenance"? Thanks!
January 17, 2018
I use it bc I feel like it keeps my waist snatched. But u don’t have to use it. Sometimes if I’m going somewhere important or just want an extra snatch I’ll wear it a week before an event.

You look amazing. Did you wear the faja and got massages? I didn't see your drainage on none of your pics, how come?
User Avatar
March 13, 2017

User Avatar
March 14, 2017
I honestly didn't sit for long periods of time for the 1st 5/6 months! Which was mine choice. I took a boppy pillow with me everywhere lol
User Avatar
March 14, 2017
I started wearing jeans at one month
March 14, 2017

Hi girl, did you start squatting or do any exercise for your bum? My swelling is down 2 1/2 inches after surgery and I'm bummed about that. Just wanted to know how you kept all the fay and your bum still looked so full and round after months?!
User Avatar
August 10, 2017
Hey girl, I didn't! I didn't sit at all for the 1st 4 months and then barley sat down at all until 6 months post op and I really think that had ALOT to do with me keeping So much fullness. Plus keep your diet pretty steady until at least 3/4 months bc if u drastically change it or try to diet until 3-6 months post op oh can loose the fat in your butt bc It is new fat! I did get round two bc I had booty greed lol. My account for my 2nd bbl is feelgoodgirl
February 23, 2018
U look great

Love your body after. It shows you can look great even if you don't have that much fat. I'm unhappy with my double chin arms and thighs at the current weight of 190 and want to go into surgery at 165-170 so I don't drop anything after. You gave me hope I'll look good
August 25, 2018
Thank you so much!!! I weighed 112 when I had this surgery. I gained weight for a round two, I weighed 138. Now I’m 150! I’m still super happy tho. I’m sure you will look amazing!!!
