Where do I start....after stalking this site for a couple of years I've decided that it's time to do something nice for myself! I've always hated the shape of my booty and my overall body (will post pictures soon).

So after some major research I decided on Dr Salama. He seems to be the most experienced but from what I see one of the priciest! Although I have to admit that so far my experience with his office is amazing. They are very responsive and professional.

I'm curious to know what you guys think of my choice? Also, has anyone been approved for FMLA for this procedure?

Nervous and excited! Thanks for replying!

How long were you out from work? Did you go on disability without FMLA? Thanks for replying!

Did you research other doctors? Why did you pick Dr Salama?

I thought he had reasonable prices compared to prices out here in San Diego and LA. I'm scheduled with him in March for BBL and I can not wait !

Finally posted some pictures. As you can see, I'm naturally square-ish. Blah. Hoping he could work his magic. He's recommended that I gain 5-7 lbs. I'm also paying a little more because they're going to use the Vaser lipo on my arms and abdomen to treat some of the lumpiness I got from some smart lipo I got years ago.

I was 128 a few days ago and even though I've been eating way more I've barely gained a pound! Not super comfortable with the gaining part but the doctor doesn't want me to be disappointed if he can't find enough fat on me. I don't know...I see plenty!

If any of you ladies are around my size and height (I'm 5'5"), let me know how you did in the weight area and how your results turned out. Would really appreciate it!

I would recommend gaining more than the doctor suggested 5-7lbs u will def be disappointed if u don't deliver the weight gain...sounds like u hv had lipo on ur abdomen before which may b another strike against u in terms of harvesting healthy fat that has the potential of surviving. It would b very disappointing to pay all that money and go thru all the stress n pain to look just as u walked in after your swelling goes down. Drink several protein drinks a day to help with the weight gain. I just scheduled w Dr Miami for next year..Best wishes to u doll!

I think you look great already and you're going to have amazing results! I've been considering Salama and a few others and can't decide! I think Salama may be my final choice because it would only be a 3 hour flight home for me, versus 5 hours to the doctors in California. I will be following your journey and hope you love the results! You said you are getting v lipo? Why does it cost more? Does it produce a better result?

Thanks Hun! I was just looking at your pictures and think the same about you! It's interesting because we are about the same height and weight yet look totally different lol. I chose Salama because he truly is one of the best and has an art for perfecting the silhouette. I'm a little scared I'll be too big but I plan to be very specific and with him on my expectation. Crossing my fingers! When are you planning on getting yours?

Hey girl! I have a really demanding job and I'm a single mom, so my scheduling will depend on when I can get off of work but I want to do it as soon as possible. I have contacted him already for my consult but haven't been able to get it scheduled yet...hoping to hear back from them tomorrow. Ideally, I will be finished with the whole process by April or May depending on how booked he may be. I know he's busy! Thanks for saying I look good but this is me after a lot less working out than I'm used to :( so I have more fat and less muscle than usual and I've gained weight as well....I think I will try to get to 140 before the bbl. where did you have lipo at on your body? You probably need to do what I did as well, and stop working out and start gaining fat. I'm pretty miserable with the way I look right now, but it will be worth it once I get my bbl and breast lift! Hugs to you!
