2 more days and I'm 3 weeks post op on BBL round 2
$9,851
I'm still swollen and bruised similar to my first round of BBL but this one is tougher because of the medial thigh lift. Here's my more recent review

This is a challenging recovery but so far I still think it was worth it. I just hope things heal ok and that more of the fat in the BBL survives this time

18 months Post Op pictures
here's some updated pics from my before surgery, 2 months post op, and now 18 months post op. I have lost volume of fat in my booty and it doesn't have the same lift it did but still an improvement over what it was before surgery.

July 6th 2 months post op BBL Updated Pics
July 6th 2 months post op measurements:
Left Thigh 21.5
Right Thigh 21.5
Hips - 37 3/4''
Largest Part of Butt 39
Waist 25 3/4''
Arms 10 1/2''
Bust 34 3/4''
This will be a quick objection update of changes and observations ;). Since I last measure a couple weeks ago I have lost 3 lbs. My thighs have gone down 1/2'' each, my bust went down 1/4'', and my hips went down 1/4''.
I have spoken about "fluffing" a term doctors don't like to use lol. Basically the fat injected moves down lower into the butt. As you can see in my picks the remaining fat is above the top of my butt making it look longer. Hoping over the next few weeks that will drop down.
The red and purple discoloration under my right butt cheek remains and has not faded in 6 weeks. The uneven lumps on my stomach seem to be evening out some which I am happy about :) Remaining butt and leg bruises seem to be gone at this point :) Drain tube scars are quick dark although I think I put make up on them for the pics (don't ask lol). The feeling in my skin has almost returned to normal. I would say it's about 90% back to the way it felt pe-op.
My butt still hurts to sit on a bit, my hips are painful to try and lay on for some reason...
I am glad to have had my surgery if for nothing else other than to have better shape in some areas. My husband finds my stomach more of a turn on during intimate times so that's a plus too :)
I wear the same clothing outside of shirts as I did pre-op. Shirts I am now usually an XS/Small instead of a Small/Med.
Hope my observations will help women to determine if this is the surgery for them and if they want BBL or just body sculpting. I will keep everyone update on when or whether the highly placed fat moves down lower like it needs to and if that color under the buttocks returns to normal. For those of you who already had BBL happy healing and hope you had a great 4th of July weekend ;)

Hey girl I finally did my bbl and I feel like I look bigger and he made me wider! Really no difference in the ass not much projection and I posted before and after and like yours not much happening! Total waste of my money and time instead I got 12 new holes around my body! I went in 127 pounds now I'm 136 pounds!? How did I gain weight?? My hips are wider when I asked to take the fat out and lean them out instead he made more hips for me... Only difference im a wide load now! Never ever again! My plan is to work this out!

Hey Lily, I strongly advise you to read my journey during the first 2 weeks post op. It's worth the read. The weight gain is fluid and could take weeks to disappear but it will. The body and shape I had as early on as you have is nothing like what I look like now. I'm an honest girl and think it's an insult to lie and compliment unless that's what someone asks for. After looking at your pics it looks like you are very swollen. You will have more swelling in some areas then others so no one knows at this moment how you will turn out. We all know it's a horrible waiting game but we have no choice but to wait and see. I'm 2 months post op and my body has made all sorts of changes some good and some bad. Trust me I've gone nuts with the waiting aspect of things, I wish I could fast forward time but I can't. We'll just have to give it time.

How long are the incisions going to feel tight and uncomfortable do you know? This has been a rough recovery especially with the open tunnel and shoving gauze in there daily :(
I don't understand what happened to your breast incisions. Was it really the tape that was eating away at your skin or what? I imagine the feeling under your bust must be sort of similar to under my butt incisions. It's tough when you have that much weight on top of the incision plus the pull of skin from the thighs every step taken. Hope this was worth it
