My fat got reabsorbed. Not good. But the whole silhouette of my body has changed for the better. I have a nicer shape (because of the lipo). Also, my scars are definitely changing for the better.

I'm much happier with my shape now opposed to before surgery

2017 UPDATE

Okay I've finally got an update for you all. It's been 1 year since my surgery. I am very happy with my stomach but I'm not happy with the fat transfer.

Everything about the experience I would give 5 stars except the recovery pain obviously.
I will not give the results 5 stars. I'm not happy with my results on my butt at all.

I have dark canula scars on every single insicion that was made. Especially on my butt. I have 10 canula scars on my but and they are not easy to hide at all. I'm happy with a flat ass but when I have a flat ass + scaring all over it. It doesn't make sense and it's very embarrassing because now I can't wear a bikini or thongs because the scaring will show most definitely.

Im happy with the liposuction that was done, but the fat injected did not stay AT ALL.

I'm just talking about my own experience, I wish I didn't have this many scars on my butt. It looks like I've had surgery and it looks like polkadots. I would've asked not to make so many insertions (minimum 3) not 10.

What I'm most upset about is that I don't even have a bigger butt or hips or anything it just looks like I had liposuction + I have all of these scars on me which are just on me for decoration.

I'm going to now have to look for a way to get these scars gone because I'm very self conscious about them it looks like I have 2 dotted crosses on my butt.

Guys if there's any way I could get a laser or anything which would help with these scars please give some advice. I've tried silicone, Derma rolling etc but at this point I think I need something else and something stronger.

Would I recommend this surgeon for a BBL procedure, no I will not. The surgeon is lovely but the actual procedure results are not good. I'd recommend for liposuction but not BBL.

Did I waste my money ? Not completely because it looks like I had a liposuction but not a butt lift /fat transfer.

In hindsight I would've recommended the surgeon to tell me that I needed to keep plasters on the incisions so they don't stretch, or that I should start adding silicone gel to the scars during healing process.

Most of (if not all) the fat got reabsorbed, now I just feel like I've got liposuction and I'm left with scars all over my butt.

Thanks for reading,
I'm out.

I thought I already updated y'all a few days ago lol what's up with this site hahahaha.

The surgery went very well. Dr e is lovely, absolutely wonderful and made me feel welcomed. The nurses were lovely too. Some couldn't really speak English well so google translate was very very very very helpful in communicating.

He managed to put in 900ccs. I'm happy with that. I cannot lie I wish more was put in but maybe I didn't stress it enough how much I wanted no fat anywhere other than my butt. I'm happy though, I really am. The flight home was a pain because even though I sat on a boopy pillow I could still feel my butt in some sort of agony. I wish my bum could stay exactly how it is now. I've gained about 2 inches or more from the surgery ( I hope it's not just swelling, because I'm swollen all over right now lol ) , anyway I'll check again later on to be sure because right now I'm in bed lol.

It's funny lol, I got a compliment at the airport when coming back hahaa.

The update is quite short because I don't really have anything that much important to say as of yet. In two /three days I'll do another update for you x

If anyone has any questions please let me know x

Hope you have a smooth recovery. I'm going to Turkey for mine next week. How would you say the pain was for you out of 10??
I'm excited but still nervous.

Thank you so much , the pain on day one was about 7 which went down day by day, days 1 to 4 it's a lot of discomfort as you've got to adjust to the change. Eg how you sleep or How you lounge etc. The nurses were very attentive and gave me drugs whenever I was feeling pain then I became okay. Are you writing a review for yours ? x

Okay I guess I can deal with that. I've had my breasts done, as well as a foot operation, I should be able to handle this lool.
Yeah I will be writing about mine. I've started reviewing my pre op journey. I have put up some before pictures too. Did you go with anyone or by yourself?

Thanks doll for your review. I will be following your progress. Can I ask how much was the cost of BBL and accommodation? And how long did you stay in Turkey? Happy healing.

Oh, dear.. I can say nothing but congratulations!! You've gone through such a serious surgery.. if your liposuction was really made on all the places you'v listed here, and you are still not crying and dying...!! you are really a heroine and a daredevil.!! I know what liposuction is like. though I had it just on my hips I forgot everything else in the world.. And you have such big incisions...Keep your chin up, and wait.. it all will gone in two weeks.. and you will be awarded..!!
