Hello Ladies,
This is my first time writing a review. I have been on this site for over a year doing my research for BBL procedure. I have thought long and hard and decided to move forward. I am booked with Dr. Hughes from Los Angeles for Friday September 23. I have read many comments and have learn the god and the bad of this procedure. I am just hoping I get the results I want, but at the same time I am also a realist and know I will not get my ideal body but with this surgery I will get a nice shape and I will start working out to continue to improve my shape. I will post pics later. I'm very nervous and excited, too bad I cant say the same about my husband lol. He says I don't need this and I'm fine (partners always say that lol), but he will be my private nurse.

Happy for you...great results too! Whatever you do stay off your butt as long as you can...I stayed off my butt for 8 weeks....I was super flat & I had 1250 cc in each butt cheek....I have a better butt now but, it not huge....I would probably need another BB round to have much more volume!

I know it hard to stay off your butt....make a sacrifice since you spent so much money! The results will be amazing.....I glad I stayed off my butt for a long as I did....I'm 52 years old & have a cute butt that matches my body! Yes, I had high expectations but, the bottom line is I was super flat so I'm very happy that I can wear & beautiful dress with some curves in the backside!

Wishing the a comfortable recovery!

Ok so I'm getting ready for this big day tomorrow. I hope all goes well. My only concern is my doctor hasn't seen my lab results, I had them done by my primary doctor, and I hope they are all normal. Also I am missing my hiv results and I hope this will not delay my surgery. Wish me luck.

Day one post op

Ok it was very tough the first day of surgery. I woke up in agonizing pain and the worse part was the nausea and vomiting. My ride back home was one hour. Boy was that very uncomfortable. It's been challenging to find a comfortable spot on my bed. My neck hurts from laying on tummy and my hands become numb. I can't lay on my side because he put fart in that hip area too. He put 1200 cc in each buttock n 400 cc on hips. My butt is sooooo hard. I have sharp pain mostly in my lower abdomen and lower back. I have been taking my norco every 4 to 5 hours. Taking my antibiotics and my multi vitamins vitamin c iron and bromelian. I want to sit down sooo bad but I'm afraid my poppy pillow dies t do the job right.

Wow , lucky you getting 400 cc hips I don't have any hips and he wasn't able to give me any .. Yes the hardest part is sleeping on stomach for 6 weeks . I didn't sit at all unless I needed to.

Sleeping definitely sucks. I just started to sit with the BBL pillow and a pillow on my back. But I'm not too comfortable with it. I don't want to ruin it.

I have my surgery this Monday the 26th and I'm just so anxious to get it over with. Good luck with the record. Hope you feel better soon. Maybe try sleeping with your face in a boppy pillow. This way the neck is supported a little.

Just checking on you and hope your doing great.
September 30, 2016
Thanks, I'm doing good. Swelling is going doing more every day. And pain is only when I lay down too long. Your looking great. Keep up the good work.

Hello. Today is day two and I feel much better but I'm very swollen all over my abdomen and lower back. I got to shower and I feel so much better.
