I had my bbl through strax w Dr kreegel . At the time of my consult I advised my main area of concern was my back fat and the Dr asked if I wanted to do any other area so we settled on my back fat ,flank ,abdomen and having the fat transferred to my butt under tickle lipo( local anesthesia) . I thought I would be having my surgery at strax in lauderhill but Dr kregeel does his surgery s at Boca surgery center and they told me this the day before. My original date of surgery was in November but when I got there the dr said he couldn't do the surgery bc my iron/ hemoglobin was low... ( Couldn't the Dr have told me this the day before ughhhhh) . Any whoo I I rescheduled for 1/13/17 again I advised the Dr my main area of concern as he was marking me up for surgery. Surgery starts and omg !!!!! , At first the Dr injected me and I felt a prick, then the area was"numb" and he injected me again and started the procedure and God I don't recommend tickle lipo bc you feel your muscle being pulled apart and the abdomen wasent painful but by the time I was flipped over and my butt was injected I was feeling painnn . On a scale from 1-10 , a 10 !. I was telling the Dr ouchh, stop , it hurts like every 2 minutes. The Dr came around and told me I had already reached the allowed limit of fat removal and numbing med. Any who he had not done my back yet and I was pissed so he did a litte bit of lipo on my back to shut me up. Any who I went home . My chest started hurting on day 2. I went for post op on day 3 bc the Dr was going on vacay. I went to strax and the Dr wasent there so I saw his PA and told her about my chest pain and that one but cheek was bigger than the other. She said my chest pain was prob due to dehydration and that being swollen on one side more than the other is normal. Any who fast fwrd my chest pain went away but came back at the 2 wk post op mark and i was out of breath so I went to the ER and sure enough I had a blood clot in my left lung and pnemonia... Ughhhhh so painful. I admit that after surgery I mostly stayed in bed and just got up to bathe,eat,use the bathroom and to help my son with homework so maybe the lack of not being active contributed to the clot. But anywho I was in the hospital for 3 days . Now I have to be on coumadin and levenox shots for god knows how long. And I feel after being on my butt for 3 days at the hospital it got flat. Also I had my faja off for 3 days since I was at the hospital and I got sooooo swollen in my abdomen.. I don't recommend surgery ! Life is more important!

Hi Doll sorry to hear about you having to go through all of that.But I just went to him and the only thing I'm concerned about is my results because to me and my family members I still look the same.

Hello. Thanks for posting your results. My cousin was to have surgery with this provider and changed her mind based on your experience but now the pics are gone. Can you repost? Why were they removed?
