$8,000

I have been planning on getting this procedure done for a while now, but conflict of money & time always stood in my way. I have been to several Dr's, and consulted with them but, I have yet to find the perfect one for the right price. I always get on RealSelf and the main Dr. ppl tlk about is Dr. Salama but I refuse to travel out to get it done. I rarely hear about any Dr's here in Houston except for Dr. Cortes, but he is way too expensive ($9300) & from the pics I've seen not that great. There was a Dr. I consulted with that I plan to go to Dr. David Carpenter, I love his work, and his pricing was reasonable ($8500). I heard of Dr. Leo Lapuerta, and I am thinking of going to consult with him, his prices seem fairly low ($6000) and I like the work he did for MrzSoto. Regardless, i definitely want to get this procedure done by Nov.16. If anyone knows of a good Dr. that is reasonably priced in the Houston area feel free to contact me!

So I have decided to go with Dr. Lapuerta, my consultation is 10/26/12 I have finally made up my mind. If i keep doubting myself I will never get this procedure done. I set a date even b4 the consultation just so I do not renege ( I am good at doing that) the date is Nov. 21. I will keep u all posted on how it goes. He prices are a little higher than stated ($8000) but if u get other work done it's $6000.

I live in Austin but have had PS in Houston before by Dr. Fortes, who is amazing. I went to a consult with him, but he said I didn't have enough fat to achieve the look I desired, so I sent Dr S some photos and he said he could make me look amazing. I'm booked with Dr S in Aventura Florida, but not until June 6th. I soooooo desperately want an early sx date because the TX HEAT is brutal in June!!

Yeah, thats an easy excuse. It's alot to say, but it can better explain all the changes to your body and seems more realistic.

Plus I don't have a whole lot of fat to be removed, I'm slim and I already wear a butt lifter under my clothes which makes me look my butt is bigger than it really is. The lifter makes me look more toned and gives the look of more projection since it's a compression style lifter. The BBL surgery will just make me look much better than the lifter, w/o the lifter. I totally think just telling folks I've been dieting and working with a personal trainer will be much more believable. :) I'm so excited, I cant wait til Feb. I pray everything just goes smoothly!!

It's funny- it's like where do you start with explaining where you magically grew that new booty. People may stare and sometimes comment but it's like do you really feel like going thru the entire explaination of what a BBL is. The more I think about it when I time comes I will probably just stick to the line of working out and a personal trainer. Think that's more simple than explaining a BBL procedure or being accused of butt shots or anything else rediculous.

Good suggestion ladies! I was thinking the same thing but automatic hips are sort of hard to explain, regardless ppl will still have their opinions, but I doubt they will think I got a bbl!
