WORTH IT$6,900
4 weeks this week and I am starting to sit but still on my boppy. Still a bit scared to sit directly on pillow but I will start to try this weekend. I have lost volume but still satisfied with what I have. I have noticed lost volume in the buttocks where the surgical garment opens up (I guess from pressing on my buttocks while sleep or something).

I have started wearing spanx now for the compression on my stomach but I noticed that it makes me swell more by the end of the day but I do see a huge difference.

Girrrrrrl! You're looking better and better each time you post pics, everything's rounding out lovely,you must be so happy!!!
I am happy other than the slight indention toward the bottom where the garment pressed because of the tightness. Overall though still happy.
was it from a garment they gave you?
Ow, I got that to on my right cheek, i didnt fix the garment properly and boy isn't there some flatness on the lower bottom.
I got it done with Dr. Salzhauer too Bootay. My surgery was on the July 22. So I have 4 weeks and half. I did loose volume in the last week. I am still happy with my result but I also have that dent your talking about. I am wondering if it will disappear once gravity pulls it down.
Man I sure hope so cause thats ugly
do you think it is from the garment too?
i just posted my review today so you get to see my results also.
I looked but didn't see it
Hi BooTay! I was thinking about Dr. Salzhauer and now I'm leaning strongly towards Dr. Salama. Did you consult with Dr. Salama beforehand? Has anyone who chose Dr. Salzhauer consult with Dr. Salama if so, what made you choose Salzhauer as I would love to hear your views-thanks!
Miami girls, anyone has any feedback on Dr. Mel Ortega he works in the same office as Dr .Salzhauer

Hi Erica,

There's one review for Dr. Ortega here.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Sharon.
No, sorry
thanks for responding BooTay - im not sure what to do :-( I dont find anything on Mel Ortega.... thanks for responding though...

cocopuff1, I contated Salama, will make an appointment with him and will see what happens, will keep you posted... if you have any information on an excellent BBL doctor, please, please share it! thanks

Well yesterday I hit my three week mark and I tried on my jeans, slacks and scrubs and everything fits still. So for anyone wondering if you will still fit into your clothes.... I do. there is a lill more bootay in them jeans but overall they still fit.

My garment is super duper huge in my waist area cause that area has gotten so tiny but it fits everywhere else so I started wearing the thing you wrap around your stomach to workout but it got more swollen on me so I stopped and started wearing spanx to get the full compression in all the areas.

Hey girl u look really good. How was the flight home. Were u in the "praying position" while in flight? How uncomfy were u?
The flight home was horrible and miserable. I sat mostly on my side besides when it was seatbelt buckle up time. I slept for about an hour and the other two hours were so uncomfortable but I didnt want to stand.
where are those one month shots girl?
posted per your request :)..lol

Well I am offically two weeks and one day post op. I am feeling good and almost back to normal. No more hard bootay...lol however my compression garment is too big and not providing much compression so I think I am gonna go get me some spanx since I cant find what I am looking for to control it.

I left the doctor with a XL compression garment and within the week went to a large now that is too big so I need a medium but I dont want to compress my butt any more than already so I need one with the butt out.

I am being challenged at work with this no sitting thing since I do work in an office. Kneeling, standing and changing positions are all just MISERABLE!! (New Photos)
