47 y/o with a new body and a new attitude! SL &BBL - Lilburn, GA

Good afternoon Vivacious. I'm praying that you are feeling much better. I am three weeks Post Op from TV and SL. Hearing your testimony was an eye opener. Thus far I love my results. However, I've contemplates doing a BBL. I don't think I will anymore. I will go to the gym and enhance the little bit of butt God has already blesses me with. Thanks so much for sharing your experience.

Prayers are with you. OXXO

Hey there Vivaious! Finally, you've posted and I'm happy that you disclosed what you've been going through the last several days. I know that you've been through a lot, but I'm happy that you're doing a whole lot better today and with each passing day, things are going to get better :-) As I had stated to you earlier, I know there will be some ladies reading your comment and will assume that you're saying that PS is a "grave" mistake based upon your post op experience. However, you and I know that this is not the case. As with anything in life such as driving a car, flying on a plane, having knee replacement etc etc etc, there are risks. We just all don't expect to fall into the category or the small percentage of people who have complications. Thank God that you did everything you were supposed to do and you went to the ER just in time. Not to insult anyone reading this, but what Vivaiuos had was similar to having a heart transplant and your body rejects it. That's what necrotic fat cells are (in simple terms). She had the fat cells removed from her body and transferred, but some of them died, thus leading to her "unforeseen" outcome. It could happen to anyone and no dr, can claim that they can avoid that. That's why every "body" is different. Anyway, Thank God she had Dr. Boutte, whom (according to Vivaiuos and despite her critics) went the, "extra mile to decompress & remove necrotic fat cells." Thank God Vivaious went to her local hospital in a timely manner and sought treatment. What she went through isn't the dr's fault nor is it Vivaious. It's an unfortunate thing, that was a test and is now her testimony :-) Her most recent comment should be used as an educational report for those considering fat transfer. That's not to say, "Don't do it". It just means that you're making an educated decision and know what the possible complications may be and know what to do in a timely manner. There are hundreds, if not thousands of women who had the same procedure and didn't have her experience. Anyway, Viv... Thanks for allowing me to write this on your blog for everyone to read. Keep healing well and remain blessed! :-)))))))

Praying for a speedy recovery. Thanks for sharing your story!

So glad you are doing well!! If I had read this. Before, I would not have taken the risk either! God bless!

I hope you feel better&I wish you a speedy recovery. I saw pics&I think you look great&it's only been 8 days. Don't be sad or down on yourself. Hang in there. give it time. 6 months is when you can give a review on result. I hope you feel better. just remember your body has gone through trauma&needs ample time to heal. Sending positive energy your way. Keep yr head up.

Bella Besos is right! Great advice as usual. Be strong. We can already see how wonderful you look. And once the slight seeking goes down you will look phenomenal! Especially your thighs (=

Ho ware you doing? I hope everything is going well and you are feeling better and positive about your results. Have a good night.

I had the BBL done also. In addition to a Tummy Tuck with smart lipo to upper lower abs and bra roll. OK that was kinda a lot but back to the BBL. At first my butt was huge... then after a week or two is started going down. I was afraid that I was more hype than anything. Nurse Lee told me to hold on, that I would "plum back". I can honestly say I'm 4months post op and it HAS. Not to mention that as the swelling everywhere else went down it made that and my breast look much bigger than they did right after surgery. Hold on... it gets better.

Happy Labor Day!
