38yr Old Mom. Bbl and Revision on Botched Thigh Lipo - Foster City, CA

Hi everyone. So I started my bbl journey today and...
WORTH IT$12,000
Hi everyone. So I started my bbl journey today and met with Dr. Beck. I'm looking to do it in a few months. He was very kind and reassuring and made me feel at ease But let me tell you, I am extremely petrified. I have an 18 month old son and I worry I will not wake up from the surgery! I tried to talk him into doing twilight anesthesia but it's a no. Oh no! im hoping It would be a 2 hours process and again that's a no! He is taking fat from arms, flanks, back and abdomen. I'm 5'1 and 142 pounds. I don't know if he can get a lot of viable fat from me. Problem is, he also needs to prioritize the deep dents on my hips and thighs because of a previous botched lipo on my thighs. I completely lost my hips! So whatever is left from fixing my dents would go to my flat as a pancake butt. I'm hoping to hear from the ladies who have done it, especially those who have seen dr. Beck, how they got over the Jitters and also to those who did arm lipo if they were happy with the result. I was told that 90% of time, arm lipos are not very effective. I have yet to see good photos online where I can actually tell if it's effective or not. Recovery wise, was it totally unbearable? How was you ladies' first day at home? I'm a single mom and I don't know how I'm gonna chase my baby if I'm throwing up and in a lot of pain. I'm seriously considering spending an extra day at recovery but don't want to spend if I don't need to. Also how long did it take for the bruising and scars to go away? Really hoping to get some tips from you lovely ladies out there. You're amazing and you look great. Wish me luck!

Just an email from kelly. She's trying to book me down for nov 2. I'm looking to see what other options she has for me because I need to make sure I have a sitter. I'm trying add more pics

My first day after surgery wasn't hard. I was talking and even laughing. I took my meds and did fall asleep and slept most of my second day. Only got up every couple of hours to walk around bc I didn't want any blood clots. The third day, fourth and fifth were the worst. Specially the third. But I was okay. I felt super beyond swollen, felt super stiff. It was hard for me to get up from the bed or the couch. After moving around for a few minutes my skin in my stomach would feel less stiff but as soon as I would lay down and then get back up I would feel the stiffness. It's such a strange sensation. My butt dos not hurt at all. It was more of my stomach and lower back area that hurt. I think it felt more uncomfortable bc I felt like a swollen blueberry and laying on my stomach felt weird. But as the days go on, you will heal more and more and look back at those first days like nothing. Trust me, time flew by for me and now I feel 100% and I'm 10 1/2 weeks post op. You got this girly!!!
