Hello. I am 31 years old and 3 children. I have been considering a bbl and arm lipo for about 2 years. I had breast reduction in 2011. I went from a 38DDD to a 38 C. I am 5'6 and 190. I had a consultation with Dr. Yager but, his bbl did not convinced me. I found Dr. Schulman here on RS. I had my consultation yesterday 4/6/13. Him and his staff made me feel so comfortable and he answered all my questions. My surgery is scheduled for 5/6/13, yayyyy. My dream of having the butt of my dreams is coming true. My only concern is the recovery process. I am wondering how am I going to feel right after I wake up from my surgery. For some reason, I can't download my pics.

Hi there! We have the same doctor. I'm wondering if your surgery date is actually May 7. I believe Dr. Schulman only does procedures on Tuesday and Thursdays, so I'm wondering if we'll have the same date. I hope you post some pics! All the best!!

Hey dirty29, I was informed that due to his high demand, he is or will be now doing them on Monday too. Yay. What are you having done. I tried to post some pics, but I couldn't.

I'm having lipo on my full back and abdominals, and he'll be reshaping my entire bottom to give me a small waist, hips and some more projection. He's also going to do a tiny bit of lipo on my inner thigh and hopefully on my arms. I'm going all out lol! What about you dede123?

Awesome! I feel we're in great hands with Dr. Schulman!

Good luck! Considering this procedure with same DR! Can't wait to see/hear how it goes. Best wishes
April 12, 2013
Thank you sophia8299. I can't wait. Feeling nervous and excited at the same time. When is your surgery?
April 12, 2013
I haven't set a date as of yet. I had orginally planned to book with dr Ghurani in Miami but being so far from home (Boston) for ten days is too much. Now I'm considering Schulman as its much closer. I've been honestly just waiting to see others results with him before I commit.

I totally understand. I also thought about traveling to have my procedure done until I found Dr. S. here on RS. I think he gives excellent results.

So exciting! I am scheduled for my consult with Dr. S in May. What concerns you most with the recovery process? Did Dr.S indicate how many cc's he plans to give you in each hip? What areas did you and Dr. S agree to lipo? #teamSchulman
April 13, 2013
About the recovery, just being in pain and not being able to tolerate it. When I met with Dr. S he asked me how big...lol. I told him what I wanted and he told me that I did not need hips. Girl, I got hips. I just need a booty to with it. Lol.

Lol! Your a curvy woman as am I.....did he seem fine with your weight? Did Dr. S show you pics? I'm thinking he would want to give you between 1000-1200cc's per cheek
April 13, 2013
He asked me if I was ok with my weight and I told him yes. I'm spanish and I'm one who likes curves... lol. He really listened to what I wanted and I respect him more for making sure that I'm happy and realistic about my results.

I will be getting lipo to my flanks, full back and arms.

And I think he plans on doing some lipo on your waist, but not your stomach?
April 13, 2013
I was too excited to ask for pics.. lol but, I think that he's the one to give me my so desired derriere. :-D

Hello, it's good to find more ladies down with #teamschulman. I'm scheduled for May 7th. I'm a little nervous about recovery as well. I have a 5 month old so I recruited some family to be with me for a couple of days. I felt a little better about it after I spoke to my primary Dr about it today. She said its a relatively low risk procedure and recovery is "not the worst".

Nice! My primary doctor looked at me like I was crazy when I told her I was getting BBL surgery. I can't wait for May 7. I'm going to PM you my number so we can text each other - maybe we'll see each other on our surgery date. I'm nervousssssss! Not really because of the surgery at all, but I feel like I'm about to go through a dramatic change in my life because of this surgery, and while I can't wait, I'm also quite nervous because I think recovery will hurt. But it'll be worth it. You are very strong to do this with a 5 month old, girl!! My boyfriend is taking off work to take care of me through recovery lol. He's the best :)
April 22, 2013
I understand. My sister will be taking turns caring for me.
April 23, 2013
Ha! That's funny about your pcp. My Dr is actually young and she says she will be getting her work done after her second baby. She can't wait to see my results. She's really cool like that. Did you go back to see Schulman for another consult? I'm going to see him tomorrow. I just have a few more ??s for him just to make sure my expectations are realistic. #newchapter #teamschulman

LOL! I've been shopping for clothes a lot lately because of this surgery. I feel like I have so many more things that I thought I'd never be able to wear but that this surgery will make me want to wear ALL the time lol. I wore a bikini for the first time last year because I finally lost enough weight and gained enough confidence in my body to wear it, and I got a lot of stares and felt so self-conscious. This year, I will wear a bikini with solid confidence! Stares or no stares, IDGAF!! Where are you buying most of your post-surgery clothes?
April 22, 2013
Not knowing what size I'm gonna be made me stop shopping. Lol. I got xactly 2 weeks to go. I just want to get it over with.
