Definitely Worth It, But Dr. Markmann is Very Expensive

Not much to add. I continue to be very happy with my results. I do wish the price had been lower. I have held on to most of the fat I had transferred to the hips only. I promise to post pictures soon when I have time. I don't hang out here at all anymore. Had to let go of the RS drama. At some point, We have to get on with our and learned to relax and enjoy our new bodies. My improved shape just seems normal now, and not some incredible miracle.

Oops, meant to say that clothes that fir my butt tend to be too LARGE in the waist!

CORRECTION- Clothes that now fit me in the butt tend to be too LARGE in the waist.

I won't post pics until exactly the two year mark due to PRIVACY CONCERNS. Suffice it to say that I have retained most of the fat Dr. M injected. I continue to be very happy with my results. Are my results absolutely perfect? No. But Dr. M's aggressive lipo and my regular workouts have kept my tummy flat and his post op instructions helped me retain the fat. The only problem is that clothes that fit my butt tend to be too small in the waist. I do not have an exaggerated figure, just a nice, more proportionate one with a defined waist and more curvaceous hips. That's all I ever wanted. See ya in a few months, my RS friends.

Research, research, research, and my interaction with the doctor and his staff. Real Self was also very helpful. I'm waiting a full TWO years before noting that it is worth it. I want these results to last FOREVER. NO REDOS. Background: i did not sit for 6 weeks. I did NO lower body work until 3 months post. At 3 months post, I started slow walking on the treadmill. This was the only lower body exercise I did for the next 3 months. At 6 months, I gradually began adding more lower body work and returned to horseback riding. At 9 months I notched it up a bit, adding more weight to my workouts. I was super careful to follow Dr. M's instructions to the letter. Technically at 6 months, I had been instructed that I could do whatever I want. I erred on the side of caution. I waited until almost 1 year post op to return to my previous level of workouts. My hips have gained and retained 3 1/4 inches, a remarkable transformation for a very slender person. Bottom line: Dr. Markmann is a gifted surgeon and a very nice man.
