Hello every one, five days from now I will be having body sculpture andBBL with implants with Dr.Cortes in houston. I'm trying to get everything ready for post op care. Can any of you share your experience and what things I should get to make this recovery a little less painful? I am beyond excited!

Yes he did the bbl with implants. Lipo of arms, back,abdomen, thighs, chin every thing. He added fat to hips for an hour glass shape and to fill out the cheeks. I can already tell it's going to look great. The hardest part is sleeping.

Depends on how long my job will give me time off. I'm hoping they'll give me at least 4 weeks off. Cause I heard this surgery is serious. So hopefully next Month.

Yea make sure you get plenty of time off, specially if you get implants. From what iv gathered the recovery is a little longer and painful than the bbl. Good luck, it's so worth it :)

the only things I actually use are: band aids, hydrogen peroxide, neosporin and a female urinal. The main thing is to just be able to teal and go on walks every few hrs. I have my post op on wed. I'll update you.

Hey how are you feeling? For the implant did you have any drains? You look really good. Where is your scar?
