i received a few messages asking for my age and stuff
before the surgery I was 162 lbs, im 5'6. I haven't weighed myself after surgery, just dont have any interest.... it is a body contouring procedure rather than weigh loss. Plus, Im athletic/muscular so I'm wasnt that "big" but always been heavy lol so I don't really think the weight tells much of a story for me.

I am also in my 30s and have a kid, so that's what ur looking at :) hope that helps

Sidenote:
speaking of kids.... if anyone wants advice on plastic surgery and kids:

Your children will go off your reaction. Whenever my son saw me whether first day or any day of recovery, I was in a great mood, and happy, and laughing. Even if im actually miserable,for duration of the kid being there I am happy af and "feeling better and better!"

Please please please do not be that person who is emotionally needy with your kids. I know its cute when they are all huggy and sweet and taking care of you, but its NOT good for them! Don't make your kids worried about you for "cute points." If you feel like you will not be able to act happy around your kid, please sent them to family or friends house. Your first few days of the recovery with you leaking looks like a murder scene lol (its not all blood its mostly fluid, but it looks like its blood). My son dint see most of it, and when he saw some we laughed about how gross it is, and he called the original binder "the big band aid".

I have a bunch of fb friends who had surgeries and they loved the "sad attention: from their kids, its"so cute" how they cuddle you and try to make you feel better." Guys, its not cute. They are in distress, they are worried about you. Please don't do that. Im sure no one means it negatively!!! but something to think about if you havent thought about this part of it yet. in summary, be happy for them and hey be happy for you! <3

butt pic and a few notes

promise2019
so here is the pic of the butt. As i wrote in the original review, id like to point out that the size was my choice. i know most people look for a really dramatic outcome, and i don't want you to think Dr Shifrin can't do that just because I personally chose to have a small natural enhancement. my goal was more shaping than anything. Dr told me for best result i though let him lipo my inner thighs, which i refused so that naturally limited my size outcome.
However, I am very happy because my main goal was my waist anyway and the butt was just extra. i felt like ok he will throw out the fat anyway might as well maximize the results. I got the natural result I asked for.
A couple things I would want my past self to know:
Internet is really great for a lot of things, and it is wonderful that so many people are open about their experienced and warn the public about bad things that have happened to them. However, it is important to also know that there are many people who do have good experiences. Most of the time, people who are happy with their result just move on with their lives and don't tell anyone, which is why I wanted to make sure I post my experience. Internet stories can make u pretty paranoid and scared. while it is definitely important to be fully informed of all possible outcomes, make sure u also consider the equally possible outcome of you being happy with your surgery and having an easy time recovering. that can happen too you know ;)
Have a great day everyone!

You look great! Do you mind posting some before pics? Also, how many cc's of fat did he inject into your butt?

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an awesome review. I have my surgery scheduled with Dr. Shifrin in late April and I'm already a nervous mess. Your review has definitely helped to put me at ease and to trust that I will be in good hands.
