I am 5'2 and 140lbs I am hispanic and do not have a butt like most hispanic girls I was so excited to hear about this procedure hopefully I can get the booty I've always dreamed of. If anybody has any advice for me I am all ears. My ps said he is gonna try and get as much fat out of me as possible but for sure 400cc I was hoping for more like 600cc. I've read on here girls smaller then me have gotten 600-800cc so I really hope I can get that much thank you to everyone for all your post it has really help me decide this is what i want to do

Hi there... I am no Dr but I think your Dr should be able to get enough fat out to give you 600+ cc . I didn't think I had that much either but I was able to get 800cc on each when I had my BBL 2 weeks ago. Also start getting your body ready for recovery. I started taking vitamins weeks before my BBL and eating healthier and I truly believe that had something to do with my recovery. Today I am at week 2 and 80% of my bruising is gone and my body all already feeling back to normal. Oh and make sure to start your massages as soon as possible. That has also made my recovery A lot better.

He there, so yes, I was 157lb and only 5'1. They took a total of 1700cc out and put 800cc in each butt cheek. I had read that less than 500cc was not going to give very good result since you will lose about 35% of it by the 3rd month. So I hope that they can get 600+ in you. I took a list of vitamins that the surgeons office suggested from vitamins c, to a few different homeopathic medicine (Ruta, Arnica, Hypericum)and Milk Thistle to name a few. I have the list at home but I can email it to you if you want. Just message me your email. I love my results and I love the staff at the office they gave me a lot of pre op information and were very good at preparing me to what to expect pre op. I also started my massages 3 days after surgery right after they took my drainage out and those have helped a lot with the soreness and swelling. Today at 2 weeks I feel totally like myself again, only that I can’t seat for another 4 weeks. How many consultations have you had? Check around and make sure that they can refer you to a good massage therapist for your recovery that it’s a big part of the recovery process to get the results that you want and to help with the swelling and soreness.

I went to 3 consults one was talking 300cc total the other said 400cc in each cheek but it was basically like a drive through lipo station I was like no thank you and Dr Perez which is who I am gonna go to said.400cc in each cheek for sure and will try for more if he can get it im in KS so I.dont have many options Im also debating if I should go somewhere else to have it done. Do you think gaining weight would help? Sorry for so many typos im using my phone to type this lol

I think the drs are telling you so low because you dnt appear to have a lot of fat. Im acually jealous of your stomach!! But yeah, you might have to gain a little bit which is better than having to lose it. Whos your dr?

Yeah the whole traveling thing is nervewrecking and tedious to plan but hearing so many successful trips and surgeries makes me feel alot better about it.

Im no Dr. but I dont think 400cc will be enough....RosalPR is right.....after losing 35% of it you see much of an after results. Have you tried looking into Dr. Salama in FL. I heard he is really aggressive with the lipo on skinny peoople...and from the look of his work I would agree. Im only 5'1 and weight 130lbs and he told me he could get 800cc to 900cc in each check, and thats with out me trying to gain anymore weight. I would hate for you to not get what you paid for and have to go through this again.

Im starting to get discourged. My ps and many others have told me 300-400cc per cheeck is what Im looking at. My ps said he will try for as much as possible but what if all he can get is 400cc is that even worth it? Im afraid Im going to be very disappointed. I even thought about going to Compos but even he said maybe 500 and I dont think the possible extra 100cc is worth the travel. I dont get it I know I have fat and I know alot of ladies on here are smaller then me and are getting 600-800cc at least. I guess I will see come sugery day :-( Hopefully I will get more then the predicted 400cc per cheeck

i am sorry to hear about to findings. I do hope that they get more than 500cc because 400 might end up more like 250 or 300 cc after you finish healing. have you tried looking at other Dr.s to see what they say?
User Avatar
November 22, 2011
Yes I have have I figured I am probably gonna go ahead and go with Compos b/c the 500 sounds better then 400 just not looking forward to the travel

What did he say about you adding a few more pounds or have you ever though of getting fillers if you don't get as much as you want?
User Avatar

I asked about weight gain and he said it really wont help cuz we are born with the amount of fat cells that we will have and when we gain weight they just get bigger but he said hes not oppose to it if I want to im also thinking about adding my arms to.the lipo. What are fillers

i dont know to much abou them, but i was told that if i wanted a bigger butt and didnt have enough fat to get it, that i can consider fillers. but i am not sure about injecting anything into my body that is not my fat. ask you Dr. and see if they know or recomened anything like that. i still hope that they can get as much as 500cc cause i have over 900cc in one and about 800cc in another and i can tell that ive lost some already at week 5. i am still happy and people can still tell that i did something but i wished that it didnt go down so much.
