That's my major concern with this sx! Seeing results at fitst. Falling in love & watching the swelling disappear. The booty greed is real I've heard.

Yes it is and trust me when i first got the surgery i was so happy thinking that is only going to get better. .. but it's hard to watch it not get better but only look like that was temporary :( I honestly have been crying the past week... sounds stupid I'm sure

Hey there new me 2014, I was just looking at your pictures without having read your last post. But as Iwas looking at ya, I thought "it's crazy how these docs can convert our a$$es!" You got a significant transformation girl! I think we just get that "booty greed" and begin to believe we've lost so much or that we continue to loose volume. Don't be down love, you shouldn't loose any more volume and maintain what you currently have ;-)

Sorry i have been not updating often the recovery has been long. There are ups and downs but I'm finally starting to get back to normal. I have lost a lot of volume since my last post but I'm hoping its all swelling. ..and of course I'm still waiting for the infamous fluffing to occur. I do have swelling in my lower abdomen. I was told by Dr hughes to keep the binder on till week 4 which is 5 days away. I feel nervous and excited like I'm taking off my training wheels or something. I'm still unsure which garmet to wear from here??? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

So these are my new pictures and I'm hoping that I don't lose any volume I feel like I did because I had the vaginal swelling and when I went in for my post op appt on Thursday Olga said the swelling was due to my garment being too high and not too tight so now it's over most of my butt and I'm scared that it will hurt my results.....any one have this experience???

The binder won't damage the fat, you HaVe to wear the binder low or you're lower ab/vaginal swelling is not going to get Better. My binder would cover 3/4 of my butt, and it was super tight, it even left indentations. As much as I hated the binder it is essential to proper recovery. Please follow Olga's instructions they know what they are doing. Your butt went down and will continue to go down, that's not necessarily fat loss, it's swelling. I know it's hard to see it go down but in a couple months it'll look bigger, don't worry.
