Lol, I hate to agree, I thought the projection was not screaming as loud as the hips, but girrrlllll, that waist is everything, and as far as I'm concerned, any size or shape of body under a snatched waist always looks good, projection or not. I want projection, but if Alvarez can give me tommy and hips like yours, I'm gonna grab it and run without looking back. Day 4 and you're looking so wonderful already. Also, some people's projection become more significant after about a week or so, when the tommy swelling reduces further. I'm so happy with your results. It gives me hope for myself. You look good, no denying it. Anytime you have doubts, just go back and look at your before picture, instead of your wish pics, you'll see that you're fine. Can't wait for mine! You look good. Too good!
You will love your results with Alvarez. As long as your expectations are realistic. Good luck hun!
Thanks lady
Don't forget to get the measuring tape if and when you can. And I can see the bleeding has reduced/stopped
Didn't even buy one.... damn now I wish I knew what my pre-surgery waist was... lol.... I'll have my boyfriend buy one soon Cuz now I wanna know how small it actually is
You look great. I had surgery with Alvarez too. He doesn't seem to give mega projection but he does give nice curves, does great even lipo and improves conture irregularities! I'm super happy with my results.
Thanks and couldn't agree more
I think you look great , Iam looking for projection cuz my hips is all I have and they're lonely. You look very sexy girl work!
Thanks.... I feel like more hips and a small butt.... but there is no denying my curves.... ultimately I'm happy
Thanks hun for the advice.... I do love my results because they look sooooooo much better and with a small waist I actually feel sexy again.... but I weighed 198 for my surgery which means he took out all 4 liters so I wish he would've gave me more projection because he had the fat to do so.... BUT I met a girl in the waiting room that said she wanted Khloe Kardashian results and got them.... but I really do feel sexy because my results are great.... Alvarez is the man

Looks different in pictures

So I said I would put some updates on here in a couple of weeks but I don't think that's fair since I wanted people to put up pictures the day of surgery.... lol so here are a couple of pictures. .. my butt looks bigger in person... and I have a lot of swelling.... but my belly looks the exact same...

Wow you really look good. May God give you strength throughout the massages and the entire recovery Honestly when you said you were gonna update in some weeks, I died inside, lol, knowing that it was gonna be a looong wait, but didn't wanna pressurize you because recovery is not a joke I really appreciate how you reconsidered and decided to bless us with more pictures. I'm over the moon. Girlllll you are having a major coke bottle moment. You look good! And he really snatched your waist! Look at your curves, your front view is just perfect. And the good news is that your tommy will even shrink further. And boy did Alvarez give you hips. I love them . I want my hips like that. I love it. He gave you booty too. Like you said, the picture doesn't do it justice, so I'm believing it's even bigger, the picture doesn't give it much projection, but I can tell its big. I'm so happy for you and for your recovery. Makes me an excited future Alvarez doll. Your waist is really snatched!
Thanks you sooooooo much.... I decided to put them up because of you.... and because I know I stalked everyone's results and I would've died if I had to wait for results. ... lol.... so I had to put them up.... Thanks again you really make me feel better about everything. ... i love my realself family
I love you so much for this
Thanks because I'm not in love with my results yet so I was going to wait until the swelling went down and my shape got better... but I know I want updates every time someone has their surgery so I had to post something.
I girl I totally feel you. I see a very big differences in your shape. It's pretty early to judge we all heal differently. You still have fluids and swelling to go down for awhile. Just give it some time!!! Thank you again for being so informative
I don't know what you see, cause your stomach looks nice and your overall results looks amazing!! You have a nice hr glass and shape
Thanks my boyfriend keeps saying that... but he told me I was perfect before surgery so he can't be trusted... lol
You look amazing! It's swelling and fluid in your stomach. Massages and compression will resolve any issues you see because I don't see it. Lol. Best wishes on your recovery. :-)
Thank you....

Congratulations darling! You made it! Thank you for the review and the pictures. You look good! Loving your results. I can see the hips and the curves. I must say, you have an amazing and supportive boyfriend, big ups to him. Seeing your results makes me excited for myself. My body structure is very similar to yours .
Thanks doll.... I'll post some body pictures in a couple of days... but I think my butts too big.... can't wait to see your results.... and thanks I think my boyfriend is awsome too... i started coughing and he had a nervous breakdown because he was sooooooo worried... lol
Lol, wow I want to worry that my butt is too big when I'm done as well, lol! I asked you some questions on your previous post. Wanted to find out how the bleeding was without drains. I fear it might be too messy, and I really want to make a mess in my host's home. She says she doesn't mind though, but I just don't wanna burden her with a bloody mess cos she's just an acquaintance, and not a close friend or family
Sorry... I'm a bloody mess....
Lol
congratulations never comment but I follow , very interested , but just in the beginning stages of saving and looking for a affordable doc, it can get overwhelming . Cant wait to get to where you are.
Dr. Alvarez was my doc and it was crazy affordable... he was also really sweet and upfront with what I should expect. ... he was right too because my body looks like what he said it would..
You look crazy awesome, and thank you.
Good morning sunshine, how are feeling, hope the recovery is improving and you're getting stronger. Have you commenced massages? I hear it's absolutely necessary to commence before your exit wounds close and the fluids cannot drain anymore. I'm on your team, cheering for you. You're so gonna smash this! Xoxoxo
I'm on my way to get a massage now and they hurt.... aside from that I'm doing good... thanks for checking on me
