I haven't been to the actually facility yet. I've been communicating via email and phone calls. The girl who has been helping me schedule everything has been a sweetheart and gets back to me EXTREMELY fast with answers to my questions and concerns

Ppl always say don't compare your situation to others BUT come on! There have been way too many deaths at that place & you'll be taking a huge risk trusting them with you life. I know we all want bigger butts but your life is not worth it.. I'm personally going to dr. Bbl in Minnesota. Great reputation, amazing results & NO deaths. Whichever you choose is your choice & I wish you the best but think hard on your decision! Xoxo
Which doctor in Minnesota are you going too? I'm starting back up my research on new doctors cause that death seriously scared me away from Eres!
Ive looked at dr.bbl..honestly I don't trust him.Apparently he uses laser lipo and that's known to kill fat cells and cause burns or other issues.Also, he has a pic of women stating she was 6 months post when she was lying on the op table with marks n shut..wtf look at his inst..she had her anterior this lipid


I'm eyeing Schulman in new York and Hughes in California.Both have great reps and haven't seen terrible reviews.Both seem safe as well.
my thoughts exactly! @ wanting back my deposit. This is so scary.

I've been beyond insecure about my body since I was 10! I've always been relatively skinny but had love handles! As I got older my thighs got thick, the love handles got bigger and my butt stayed non existent. I'm completely okay with the size of my breast and thighs just hate my love handles and lack of booty. I'm 22 years old now and I'm completely ready to rid my insecurities and get a BBL! I've done my research and Dr.Calva at Eres Plastic Surgery in Miami, Fl seems to be the best fit for me! I've given a deposit to secure my appointment which is Aug 22. My mom will be going with me and helping me out through the process. Any advice? Recommendations on hotels? Things to buy? How to prepare my body for the surgery?

Hey how did it go
Haven't done it yet. Aug 22ed 2017 is my surgery date!
Ok. Lol trying to get my money together noone will finances n family not really being supportive but i dont care lol at least my husband coming around
I haven't told anyone in my family besides my mom and I told my best friend about it. I honestly don't plan on telling anyone else about it either. It sucks no one is being supportive though! My mom shock her head about the whole idea at first but after explaining my insecurities she understood. Also, I chose August so I would have time to put all the money to the side for the surgery. They just want a $500 deposit to hold your surgery date then you have to have the BBL all paid for 2 weeks before your surgery date. Try opening up a credit card with Capital One or Huntington, there's no interest rates for the first year and they are constantly increasing my credit limit. I had no credit at all when I applied for the Capital One card! I hope everything works out for you!
Ok. Makes sense. Ya if ur feeling bad about it and habe realistic body goals its worth a try. Instead of buying clothes i dont like tje way i look n save money. Where are staying? I heard vanity doesnt give pain meds. I think im not getting a bbl. Just tje lipo n fat transfer
Omg capital one approved me not for to much but hopefully it will increase thanks so much!
I think I'm just going to stay at a hotel near Eres.. I'm looking into the AirBNB too though. And Congrats on getting approved! Literally just buy something worth $100 and then pay it off on the due date, they give out increases like every other month lol
Oh wow thatz fast! I think my mom in law going to co sign with me not sure she said hers in the 700's so maybe no still but it means alot to me shes willing to try lol
Are u not getting recovery help? Btw i was only gonna get lipo n fat transfer but now im getting the full bbl dr calva!
No, my moms going to help me recover. Lol. Dr.Calva overs 5 free massages so that will help some but other than that no
Ok u should be fine aint nothing like mama
Is August the month you wanted or did he only have availability then?
I picked aug! Only time I could take time off work.. he should have open availability for end of feb
Please keep me updated! I've been thinking about getting a BBL for years.. I have had the same insecurities as you, also around the same age. I've never even worn a two piece bikini because of it and no one understands and of course I don't want to talk about it. Me and you are also around the same age, I'll be 22 in May - I don't have any kids either. I think it's about time to do something for me so I can be more confident! Definitely message me if you want.
Now is the time, if you strongly feel this is what you want, go for it!!! You've waited long enough. It's great you have your mom's support to. I chose Dr Calva too. My surgery is next month!!! They will email you all the post op do's n dont's. You will b more than ready! Keep us posted!!
