$4,100
So I've been looking up doctors and I'm thinking about going to Spectrum Aesthetics they assigned me Dr Sergio Alvarez with the special $4100 and The special includes:

Liposuction included – Lower and upper abdomen, lower and upper back back , left & right flank,left and right waist.Transfer to the buttocks & or hips if wanted by the patient. Surgeon FeesSurgery Room fees1 garment.Blood WorkAnesthesia Cost1 year Follow up

So far the customer service has been awesome . I did the online inquiry.  Somebody contacted me within 24 hours. I filled out a questionnaire they sent and emailed my pictures once that was completed I was contacted again within 24 hours. She let me know that I was a good candidate for the Brazilian butt lift surgery she suggested that I don't gain any more weight and a possibly lose 5 to 10 pounds before surgery.

Since I'm in philly I'm going to look up a few doctor here in PA. But they told me to put a deposit down of 300 to book my date for Oct or Nov. I'm excited !

I just had my surgery with Dr. Alvarez on 29th. He is a great surgeon. I traveled from Maryland and I would suggest you stay at a recovery house, my sister took care of me but I think it a lot of work for people who are not used to this kind of thing. Good luck to you!

You're welcome! I stayed for 7 days but if you can stay longer I would suggest you do it. I would recommend Mayda's recovery house she's feeds you, provides transportation and hooks you up with the massages. I wish I would have just stayed with her because it was too much on my sister and I never got my massages. This pain was bad for me and sleeping on my stomach is leaving me with headaches and neck pain smh. Sorry not trying to be negative, just honest lol I think if I was in better shape pre-op it wouldn't have been so bad post-op. He told me took almost 4 litters of fat out and put 1300 in each cheek/hips I'm very happy with my results but this pain :( :( LOL

Are the massages included in the nightly prices ?? One place quoted me 120 a night and massages are 70 each. That's crazy !!!

@timeforme26 I agree with you I just had my surgery with him 8/2 and him and Lena were great and I lovvveeee my results but the recovery is a [RS bleep]!!! I also had fat added to my hips so sleeping is a nightmare. My back is always in pain. But I guess no pain no gain? How are you doing with swelling? mine is awful.

Wow congrats ! How do u feel? Pain wise ?

Pain wise I'm like a 4. I've been up walking around, the only issue is, your arms get really sore as you are lifting your upper body to get in and out of bed, as well as going to the restroom. Glad we decided to do a recovery house. The day of my surgery, my pain was a 4-5 , it helped tremendously that I had my pain pills the night prior so I took one immediately before I got into the car to head to the recovery house. Your body will be sore but my butt isn't bothering too much!

Uggggh.....it started off great. Emailing back and fourth with Liz. I was ready to put my deposit down. She out on vacation until 8/15. I paid with someone else in the office. I asked for October 20, 2016. They still have not sent my receipt or other paperwork to sign !!! Now nobody answers the phone since they withdrew my money...how convenient right lol. Hopefully Liz gets back to my asap when she gets in the office on Monday!!!!

I just had surgery august 5th w/ Alvarez & yes labs are paid for, once you receive the orders you just take it to labcorp or whoever & they complete the labs and send results to Spectrum, I got my results & phone call 2 days later from Spectrum advising that I was clearned for surgery. Hope this helps!
