I went down to Los Angeles last week with hubby to have a consultation with Dr. Dass for the brazilian butt lift procedure. I had initially wanted to get it down in Seattle which is a 2 hour drive from Vancouver, BC, Canada however, I had liked the results that Dr. Dass had given to his patients for the brazilian butt lift surgery. The consultation had went well - I was extremely uncomfortable with my body, I felt like that I had fat deposits in all the wrong parts of my body and also, I had no hips. Luckily for me, Dr. Dass advised that I did not need to gain any weight for the procedure and he was going to lipo my upper and lower belly area, bra rolls, mon pubis region and waist/hips. I told Dr. Dass that I was looking for a bigger booty and Dr. Dass had ensured me not to worry.

I was quoted $12,900 USD which is essentially $17,415 since our Canadian dollar is pretty much at rock bottom right now. Plus airfare and also 5 days hotel for hubby and I - this whole procedure would cost just over $20,000 CAD. I had contemplated about getting the surgery done in DR (Dominican Republic) however hubby was adamant about me getting the surgery in North America just in case, something goes wrong etc etc. So I am booked for the next month for my BBL.

Due to the nature of my job - I will be sitting lots and no I can't have a stand up desk since I am meeting with clients and going through paperwork with them. I was either looking at a kneeling chair when I can just rest my thighs on or buy one of the booty buddy wedges. Any suggestion ladies? I am more worried about not sitting for 6 weeks versus the procedure itself.

I just finished this whole process. There's a embassy suites next to lax in El Segundo that KS very reasonable. I paid $1378 for five days, parking each day, and it includes breakfast. The suites are about 1-bdrm sized, with a living room. They have a microwave and small fridge which is so helpful. Def check into that. It helped with the costs. Xoxo happy healing!!!

My BBL with Dr. Dass is less than a month - I've been reading more and more reviews on RS when there's downtime in the office.

I want to go big like atleast 1200CC in each cheek but I'm not sure if that's attainable since only 70% of fat cells survive?

Hubby watched a BBL operation video tonight and he got really freaked out by the whole process. Anyways, I hope I'm able to achieve the results of some of my wish pics.

Hi doll! So excited for you! I agree with dreamingofabiggerbooty that you have to tell Dr. Dass that you want at least 1200cc's. I told him I wanted a nice size booty and trusted his judgement in how many cc's I should get and ended up with 1000 cc's which turned out nice, but I wished I would of had 200 more cc's. He's a great surgeon, just make sure you tell him what you want. He tends to go for a more natural booty, which I asked for so I can't complain ;-). I'm just praying it doesn't shrink anymore!

24 years old, 155lb and 5'5 height. I'm getting my bra rolls, upper/lower abdomen and mon pubis area all lipo'd. I can't believe how bloated/chubby I was in the summer (photos are from a summer trip). I'm thinking of reaching out to Angela the coordinator to see if I can get my inner thighs done too.

Doll the big booties you're wishing for are more done like that in Atlanta and Florida. I wanted 1200 cc just incase I lost some i wanted it to be big once all healed. I requested 1200cc, but I found our Dr Dass only fit in 800 cc into each buttock. I gained atleast 15 lbs so he would have lotsa fat to inject in my little booty. I guess that's all he could fit in my little booty. I've always been athletic and no kids. My skin is tight. Very similar body to yours. Did you tell Dass you want 1200cc? Make it very clear to him. I think he does a more natural look just enough to give an hour glass figure. He's aggressive on lipo but most galz are 42 inch booty which is more natural like mine. What is mon pubis? With hotel for 11 days in down town Beverly Hills, car rental, ubers, first class air and surgery it was closer to $25,000 CDN. That doesnt incluse all the shopping we did while there. So i sure hope I'm super happy with my results once the swelling goes down If i ever have to get more added I would prolly do Dominican, the girls that go there spend next to nothing and they all seem soo happy. And they have huge booties.

My hubby convinced me to go with Dr. Dass cause he liked his results better. He did convince me that I would look out of place at work if I had a Miami booty lol. During the consultation, I did advise him that I was looking for a bigger booty but he had advised me that he wanted everything to look pretty - once I had the hourglass shape then there would be more projection in the booty area which makes sense. I'm really happy to hear that he does an aggressive lipo! Mon pubis is your top pubic area right below your tummy. I'm only staying in town for 6 nights eeek, I'm wondering if that's too short now. Did you get a rental car after your surgery on your way back to the hotel or did you uber? We considered DR but with the risks associated, we decided that Beverly Hills was a better bet.

We stayed at a down town hotel 2 min drive to the Dr Dass office. Did you pick a hotel yet?

We rented a convertible when we arrived and enjoyed a vacation for 4 days. Did lots of siteseeing, shopping, great dinners and more.

Then had surgery. Hubby dropped me off in our rental and did more shopping then returned it that afternoon. He picked me up in the Uber so he could sit with me AFTER SURGERY. It was a very quick ride back to our hotel.

I stayed in our room and recovered for 6 days hubby barely left my side. He helped me go to the washroom, helped me on and off our big bed, kept me on track with all the meds, bought us healthy low sodium foods and he took me to and from appts and pharmacys. He was an amazing Nurse! He stilll helps me get my garmet on & off put on polysporon, arnica gel and replace bandaids.

I would highly recommend staying 6 to 7 days to recover. If you get lipo in your thighs you may need extra time and prolly more painful to sit and put clothes on for flight.

Grab a shower curtain to lay in the back seat incase you bleed. We also used it in the bed just incase. I only bled day 1. My insicions were all healed up by day 2.

If you have anymore questions im here for you. I just had surgery 3 weeks ago.

You will be VERY happy with Dr Dass he's lovely!! He makes us look sexy and natural not over done.

I'm a bit shocked your hubby wasn't there for you Dass Doll Sister. I couldn't have done it without him. Who changed your bandaids, put polysporon and arnica gel on your back incisions for you doll?
