I went to my 6 week follow up appointment today (I'm a couple days shy). It was a huge shock because honestly I had forgotten what I used to look like! Comparing the pre and post photos was crazy. I'm really happy with my results. I highly recommend Dr. Dass to anyone considering this procedure.

Thank you for sharing! I have the same body type as you with about 10 extra pounds in preparation for this procedure. I'm anxious and excited! I have my pre op tomorrow and surgery on Friday.

4.5 weeks post op

Sorry for the delay in updating.
From day 4 to week 5, it's been quite a journey. I went back to work day 10 and that's when I started driving again as well, using a pillow always.
I had no issues at work (no pain, discomfort, etc) but wearing the garment was annoying. I also have been in situations recently where I have to sit or be at a restaurant, and it's difficult sometimes to have to sit on my thighs for prolonged periods of time, but I do it. I have yet to put full on direct pressure on my buttocks. Here is a before pic, as well as a week 4.5 weeks post pic.
Overall I'm very happy with where it's at right now. A lot of swelling has come down, but that mainly translates to a lot of the fat from above falling down by gravity.
My main complaints are the the right is smaller than the left, and I do have some visible dents on the right side.

Results look great! I can not notice the dents. Can you show the wish pics you showed him? Or what did you tell him you wanted? I have a similar body type to yours and was wondering what areas you got fat removed from. Also, did you do the surgery under general anesthesia? I've seen other petite patients who get this done under local anesthesia.

I just picked out a couple pics from his instagram and showed him. He was very realistic and when I picked ones too big he was like you're too small for that lol.
I did get general anesthesia. Initially I told him I wanted to do it under local to avoid general and also to reduce cost, but he said it would make a minimal difference (~$300 less) in cost and it is very uncomfortable for most patients to tolerate doing this under local. He also thinks that the tumescent required for local may reduce fat survival when he's compared results to his general anesthesia patients. Long story short, he strongly recommended general, and I''m glad I did it. I got upper and lower abd, flanks, lower back. that's the standard BBL package he does.

Thanks! Have you experienced any bumps on your stomach? Some mention this as an outcome of abdominal lipo.
January 27, 2018

I feel pretty much normal now. Every now and I then I get so uncomfortable and frustrated with the garment/binder and not being able to sit or sleep properly. That's probably the hardest part and one that people don't talk about enough - it's really hard mentally to deal with it. I have barely left the house since surgery, and it's starting to drive me crazy. In other news, I am pretty happy with my results so far. I think the swelling is heading down. I feel like the most swelling is in my mons area, so hopefully that just needs a little time. My butt is getting softer and starting to feel more and more like mine.
