I have been looking and doing research for months about getting a BBL. I really wanted a liposuction because I cant stand my midsection anymore, so my boyfriend told me that I might as well add a little something something in my booty. I have been trying so many diets, pills, workout to get rid of and its not going away :/ I scheduled my surgery with Dr. Salama in Miami and I am so excited. He has always been my number choice so I picked him! Surgery is in a month and I will go see him next week for the blood work and to meet him! I am so excited!!!!!

Hi guys,

So I had my appointment with Doctor Salama yesterday! I had my appointment at 11:45a, but it took over 2 hours.
When we got to the office, the ladies were very very nice. However, other patients seemed to look miserable. I mean that is my opinion, but I got there excited with my boyfriend, and we were just happy and cracking jokes. I mean maybe it was us that were just "too happy".
I had to pay the remaining balance, and filled up a lot of paperwork.
Then, we went to the room. Nomie came to check on us, explained the procedure to us and asked diverse questions. She was very sweet. She gave me my boppy pillow. However, apparently you cannot sit on it before 4 weeks after the operation. The first four weeks you cannot sit at all. If you want to "sit" you have to put a foam roller under your thighs like that your ass does not touch anything. That got me worried a little bit, because 4 weeks is long time!
After that, we waited for over 40 minutes for Dr. Salama.
I was happy when Dr. Salama came, he was very nice, very professional. He answered all of our questions. I could tell he knows what he is doing. Apparently I have a square ass and a A shape which is good for the BBL. He told me I do not have too much fat, so I need to try to keep gaining weight until the surgery. He also told me the skin of my stomach is very thin, so he will not be able to do an aggressive liposuction on my stomach or my skin might die.
When he left, I got my blood work done and will get the results tomorrow. Hopefully, everything is all good and I am good to go for my surgery in 3 weeks. Yaneisy, the lady who did my blood work messed my vein terribly. I think she broke my vein because it ended up being stiff, swollen and I could not fully extend my arm. Today, I have a huge bruise.

I'm excited I am 3 weeks away from my surgery!!! I can't wait!!

Things to buy:
- small medicine ball to roll up on my stomach
- foam roller
- a robe

I have one more week before the surgery!! I'm slowly starting to get nervous! This is getting real and I still have so much to do!!

However, I'm kind of pissed off because I did my blood work two weeks ago at the office and the nurse ended up breaking my vein or something because I'm still bruised up and it still hurts!

hows your arm,it looks worst than when I was in school practicing,did she get blood from the middle of your arm or from your forearm?
March 7, 2015
She got the blood from the middle of my arm on the opposite side of my elbow. Yes that was a disaster :/

Try using arnica cream on your arm for the bruising. I used it after my lipo and it cleared up my bruising pretty quickly.

You can buy arnica at Walmart. They have both the pills and the cream.

They told me to do hot compress and take Tylenol, but now I am using Arnica. It looks like it is getting better.
