I love your results ... I too am looking into Dr bbl... It will require more saving on my end but I find his results to be the best plus hes w the board of plastic surgeons and has a clean record and no bad reviews UNLIKE the majority of drs in Miami... I was wondering how much more money you spent on recovery house,supplies and travelling... I know his bbl is around 9k but I needed to know approx how much more I need to save for supplies and travel and lymphatic massages

Hi Gianna and thank you! I am not aware of any recovery houses in the area but I know Dr. B has an established relationship with a hotel close to his practice that many of his patients stay at to recover. I personally stayed at the Marriott at the Mall of America with my husband and had access to the mall at my convenience! That was a plus because walking was important after the procedure and I got a ton of walking in at the mall lol! I'm sure you can contact his office for hotel info/rates. Good luck!

You look good.!!! I am so glad I found your review. I have been doing so much research in Drs that I am frustrated. I had decided on Dr. Miami and got a call from his office and saw that he is booked up until February 2018..Yes 2018. Then I saw Dr. Miami's affiliates on his instagram page and immediately I was intrigued by Dr. BBL. So I have my consult set up and hopefully I can get my funds together.

5 hours later the nurse is waking me up and feeding me Gatorade and crackers. It felt like l blinked and it was all over. Of course the snow was falling pretty thick so I'm glad I brought my rider boots. I laid across the back seat and we headed to the RX to grab my prescriptions. My preparation came in handy. Before I left the hotel I put my mattress protector on and lined the center of the bed with chux pads. My mom was a hug help. The attention to detail and the care she's providing is far beyond what a a stranger would give you. I'm really glad I decided to bring her along to help. Because we knew the snow was coming, we picked up snacks, soup and crackers before the snow storm to be prepared for the days afterward.

Hey I'll be going to dr balgobin in November. Where did you end up staying? The recovery house is $150 a day and my mom is coming so she has to pay an extra $40 a day but if I can find a hotel that's close I'd stay there if it's cheaper

Today is less intense than day 1. Speaking of pain, i never felt so much pain and soreness in my little body in my life. I thought I was close to death door. I cant believe i actually went thru with the surgery. I am complete happy with my projections. I haven't seen my silhouette yet. My first appt is Friday and I also have my first lymph massage scheduled on that day too. I had a little drainage but not much. My experience in the office was amazing. Dr. B met me at the front desk, introduced hisself and looked thru my file to make sure my consent forms were signed. Afterwards the nurse walked me back to the room. There they had my recovery bag with a cute purple flower and my name sitting on the bed. Awww. The nurse handed me a gown and a pair of disposable panties to change into. Next the anesthesiologist came in and started my IV. About 5 mins later, in comes Dr. B with his charm and bright smile. He is so down to earth and easy to talk to. His focus was on me. He took before photos, asked for my wish pics, asked in detail what I want and don't want. Next he started marking everywhere then we moved to the operating room.
