Hey everyone,

I've been stalking this site for a while (as most members here have), and after doing research and finally saving up enough money, I was able to pay off the whole BBL procedure and book my date for June 26th, 2015 with Dr. Fisher at Vanity Miami. :D

Breakdown of Costs:

BBL Special (abdomen, waist, love handles, flanks and bra line) - $4300
Extra Thigh Lipo - $300
Extra Arm Lipo - $300
Recovery Home for 7 days/6 nights - $1500
One extra bed (I'm bringing two people) - $100

For a total of: $6500

My Statistics:
Waist - 27 inches
Hips - 39 inches

I realize that I am quite curvy to begin with, however my biggest concern is my hip dent. My butt has projection and size and my waist can be really small (it was 24.5 inches before my weight gain), but I've always hated my hip dent so the main goal for this surgery is to fill in my hips, give me that hour glass figure and if there's any extra fat left, then use that to make my butt rounder and bigger.

23 years old, 5ft, 127lbs -

Before my weight gain, I was 110lbs, and Liane, my coordinator, have told me to maintain my current weight now. I feel so heavy and gross though. :( I have all this extra fat around my stomach and bra line. My face and neck have also gotten fatter too. When I walk, my thighs would rub against each other and it would actually bruise up. My self confidence has completed dropped in the last few months but I just gotta keep telling myself that this is worth it and I only have to feel like this for another 5 weeks. :( on the bright side, Liane told me that my body frame now makes me a great candidate for the BBL. and when I sent her a simulated wish pic she replied: "That's nothing, Doctor Fisher will have you looking better than that. Even if you are petite you'll be able to obtain ridiculous curves! You're in great hands, especially with your type of body frame. You're going to obtain miracles.". This got me all excited. :) But do the coordinators say this to everyone though? Haha. I just don't want to go in with too high of expectations.

Health conditions - No kids, non smoker and non drinker.

Anyways, I'm super excited to share my journey with you guys. :) Thank you everyone else who have shared their experience!

Some questions and would love to get feedback on:

1. After the BBL, I would like to lose some weight due to the excess fat I've gained in my face and neck. How soon do you think I should start trying to lose weight without it affecting my BBL results?

2. I've heard that arm lipo isn't worth it. Has anyone done it? I hate how flabby and fat my arms are.

3. How soon would I be able to ... ahem ... "be intimate" again? LOL.

Thank you so much! :)

Ps. I'm still gathering up the courage to post up pre-op pics, haha. Soon though!

Good luck on your journey doll! I'm adding arms too - Seen quite a few positive reviews in regards to having much smaller arms afterwards on here.. I also want to add thighs but not sure which area/s to choose. Xx
May 20, 2015
Yeah, I added arms and thighs! Figured if I'm getting it done and travelling out of the country to get it done, I might as well get it all done. :)
May 20, 2015
1. Idk how long but not for a while as cell memory will cause u to loose in ur butt 1st 2. Arm lipo can be wonderful if you go to the right doc I know it look weird with big arms n lipo.. 3. A soon as u feel comfortable but not putting pressure on the newly grafted fat until at least 4 weeks. I would wait till my incisions heel though missy lol. Don't worry a lot of girls get the courage to post their pre after they see how great their post is and the long road they came from.
May 20, 2015
Yeah that's what I thought, I wouldn't be able to start losing weight for a while. :/ oh well, at least my body will be nice! :P thank you for answering all my questions!

May 20, 2015
Dang, 6 weeks is awfully long. LOL Ahahah. Oh well, the BBL is worth it. :) have you seen any before and after pics of other girls who got arm lipo? I heard it's super painful. I can see why though, the skin on our arm is thin. :/

1 month pre

7 days or 10 days?

chichi3128
So I've been reading a lot of reviews and I read somewhere that it's recommended that the drains stay in for 10 days, but because a lot of the girls are only there for a week, they take it out on the 7th day. Do you think it would be worth it to stay an extra 3 days to make sure I'm completely drained? I want to recover as quickly and with as little complications as possible.

May 26, 2015
I'm gonna go into the stores and try the boppy pillows first. I'm not sure what a donut pillow is though? What is that? And have you bought yours yet?

June 4, 2015
I'm planning to take pre-op pics a week before the actual surgery so it's accurate (just in case I gain or lose any weight). But I'll definitely post up wish pics soon. When's your surgery?

I havent measured myself yet. But im 5'3 and weight somewhere between 126-128. I live 2 hours from miami.

June 4, 2015
I called the office and they said doctor fisher doesn't recommend you to sit on anything for atleast 3 wks so idk about buying any of those pillows but a donut pillow is for a lot of people who get a surgery as well. Have you got anything for your arms after the arm lipo?
June 4, 2015
No I haven't bought anything. :| I'm so bad, I'm doing everything last minute. I just want to make sure that my lab work is good before buying any supplies. Are you getting arm lipo?

You have an amazing shape already. Our stats are close but you seem to gain weight in your butt as well and that's amazing! I'm all tummy :(
June 6, 2015
Yeah I definitely gain weight in the butt and thighs area. But I've gained so much that it's gone to my back and stomach too. It's good that you gained in your tummy! Just think of all that fat going all to your butt and hips ;)
June 11, 2015
We have the same measurements! I'm a inch shorter than you and a couple pounds lighter. Good luck on the surgery! I know you'll look fantastic.
June 11, 2015
