WORTH IT$6,000
I am 5'9", 185lbs. I have a little bit of a butt but need more!! I have been to 7 doctors and have narrowed it to 2. The hold up now is cost and whether or not I do my bbl under local or general anesthesia. I want measurements of 36D(have), 26, 46. 1 doc is ASPS and the other is a dermatologist.

Wait times

**Had a revision 3-4-16 & seems as though things are less organized than last year. Staff is sub par, and you're put n a room to wait on the doctor for hours & told it'll be a few minutes. I was scheduled for SX at 11am, doc didn't show until nearly 4pm......smh. I was told he was n another sx after about 2.5 hrs of waiting & me becoming irritated. AFTER he arrived, he was attentive & listened to what I wanted & was straight to the point of he could deliver or not per whar he had to work with. The wait times however are unacceptable & absurd. It's official, March 9th is my date!!! Less than 1 week away and I'm excited, nervous and ready to be beautified all at once. Lipo is super important to me to ensure that I'm sculpted to a T. Also most important is to keep down bruising and swelling after sx. I am keeping this away from my bf bc he doesn't want me to have the procedure & if I have a lot of bruising it will be difficult to conceal. My surgeon is board certified by the asps & it'll be performed under local anesthesia. .....scared about that bc I don't want any pain! ! Not a lot of preoperative directions. I'm taking vitamin c, multi vitamins, iron (which he said wasn't necessary but I could take), & arnica. I also have the arnica gel as well... stopped my drinking for the week in advance, so no wine...:-( Have all bandages & other aftercare items too. Didn't buy a Boppy, I said I'd improvise by rolling up pillows and other items to place under knees for sitting. I only took 4 days for off work.....would like more time but going on vacation at end of April & will be gone 10 days! I only have 3 weeks off for the whole year & my time just started over....hopefully I can pull through. So far, Dr. Paul C. Dillon has answered all my questions, responded personally by email & has even called (I had a LOT of questions & concerns) even after his assistant talked to me at times . Bedside manner seems good, will be a better judge on the day of my procedure. Just waiting now....6 days!!

I went to him back in June-ish or so. & then I was about 12lbs lighter and he had mentioned gaining weight. (I did that.) He seemed a little cold and distant so prob not. THANK you 4 the suggestion though!

Hi, my name is April Williams and I am going to Dr. Omeed Memar for my BBL on March 12th. He is wonderful. He has done a procedure for me before (lipo) and I was very pleased with my results. So if he is the dermatologist that you speak about, choose him. Him and his staff are wonderful people. Dr. Memar will do all he can to make you happy. Trust him.

Dr. Memar is running a special. The code is iheartconnie and you will get the BBL for $6,500.

It's April again. When you get the BBL you will be under general because you need to be alert to some degree. But, it does not hurt when you get the lipo part of it. All you feel is pressure. The only thing that will irritate you is the gloves. They burn towards the end from all the grabbing and pinching of your skin. When, I had my procedure done, I took the prescribed pills that made me relax and stopped the pain from the small needle that will numb the incision area. Then, I had to wait 40 minutes for the pills to work. After that, I went to the room to have the lipo. They helped me on the table. Then, Dr. Memar started to numb the area where the small cut will be. After that, he made very tiny slights. I didn't feel a thing. Then, he started my lipo. He sang to me and made me laugh the entire time. You will be fine and I hope I helped you.

Just Measured!

I just did my 1st review last night-but that was BEFORE I measured myself. Wow I am 36D, 32",46" already!! If I am able to get my waist down to 26"......OMG it will be heaven! And then maybe add an inch or two to my hips.......OMG again I will simply float every where I go with more DIVA attitude than I already possess!

Awww-Thank you!! I have actually GAINED 12-15lbs (don't know exact #) since April when I 1st started going on consults. This was because docs were telling me I didn't have fat (even tho I did). So NOW, I definitely have it for them to take.

1 MORE DOC 2 see

singk86December 23, 2014
Sooooo.....I have decided to add another doc to the list of consideration. I will be consulting with Dr. Stefan Szczerba at Chicago Aesthetic Surgery Institute aka CASI on Jan. 14, 2015. I need to find someone below $8K that is board certified! If I can and I like the doc's work, he will be my go to. He will be the 8th doctor that I consult with......do your research ladies. Out of the 7 I've seen so far, only 2 made the cut (I am super picky). The $ is an issue because I have other obligations, as I'm sure we all do; school loans and regular bills for me AND occasional shopping. The derm doc is significantly lower in price, but this is bc there's no surgical room, anesthesiologist fee etc AND he's not board certified. I would definitely PREFER TO BE SLEEPING during this procedure, but have been contemplating local. From my questions to the docs on here (10 answered) unanimously ALL DOCS deemed general as the way to go. The reason being that this procedure is considered MAJOR & CAN BE PAINFUL. I am a wuss when it comes to pain. Dr. Memar (1 of the docs I am considering), asked me if I had given child birth.....basically insinuating that the pain would be on a similar level or that I would at least be able to bare the discomfort. NO THANKS REALLY......Hell I get a paper cut and damn near faint. Ohhhhh boy I hope Dr. Szczerba at CASI will deliver AND under $8K...say a ball park of $6K-7K then we're in business. BIG BOOOOO-TAYYYYYY I am coming for ya.

Did you have your surgery yet?

Not yet. Family stuff going on that has kind of kept my plans on the back burner. On top of that, I wanted to spend no more than $7K & most certified docs cost more than that. Did you get one done?

Don't know if you mind travel but the docs at Vanity in FL are more reasonably priced like Dr. Fisher and Dr. McAdoo. If you can help it you should try to choose a board certified doc for your surgery too.

Yeah but when you weigh it, the flight, hotel/recovery house, meals, after care nurse...it all adds up to the same $$$$.

That's true. You have to balance everything to see how you can get the greatest value.
