Starting my journey to a BBL. Have not confirmed Dr Salzhauer but he is my front runner as of now. I am stalking a few of his patients to see how they feel about their experience this month but I hope to book my appointment by the end of this month. Dr Salzhauer and his staff seem to have fabulous reviews and professionalism . Looking forward to your feedback or just discussing the process. I have 2 questions that I haven't seen answers too yet. (1) how long do doctors recommend you stay in Miami before your fly home? I was planning on 10 days, I have a 3 1/2 hour flight back
(2) I have seen everyone talk about the urinals to use but how do you sit for a bowel movement? Thanks for your input

From what I was told you stay there for 10 days and I saw someone post a pic with a bbl cushion on the toilet and that is how she did #2. Not sure how I will do it after surgery yet lol

If I can get the date I want I will be able to do 10 days. Haven't been able to reach Salzhauer office so far but I'm gonna try tomorrow and hopefully book

I just kinda lean forward that way you put most of the pressure under your thighs. It's all very awkward but do-able

It makes sense. For some reason I just couldn't picture how it was possible

This doctor (Salzhauer) told me 14 days... I'm trying to only be there for 10, tho.

On 2nd thought, maybe the length of stay depends on the actual procedure.

I was shooting for 2 weeks but I only think I can swing 10 days away

There's a chance that if you're paid in full, you could get bumped up due to cancellations. For me, that timing was perfect because I don't want to pay monthly so I'll spread payments out between the 2yrs.

Dr. Miami does not perform BBL on patients 50 or older. Hope you can schedule before then.

I didn't know that but I will schedule before then

Well I want to get my BBL this year and so I was very dissapointed when I called Salzahuers office to find out he is booked for the next year and a half. :(...Starting over from scratch. I want a board certified PS who has lots of experience with BBL in Miami. There are lots of doctors in CA that I love but I cant fly that far. Price isnt so much a factor as the quality of their work. I live in Richmond VA and BBL's ar starting to take off her but I dont feel that the PS here have experience yet that I am looking for. Any suggestion on doctors is appreciated

Just keep checking to see if anyone cancels and im pretty sure you'll be able to get it this yr, hope this helps

If you really want him you will have a chance to trade appointments or move up the ladder, once you put down you down payment. It happens all the time.

I have my own business so I'm very limited to the time frame I can take off from work. I have specific dates to work with. I would love to use Salzahauer but I have decided to use another PS that has the same quality work but is more expensive since he can work with my dates.

User Avatar

I'm still on the search for a BBL board certified doctor. I am ready to book an appointment for Dec 28 but since Dr Salzhauer is available till June I am still Lon the hunt for a doctor. dr Salama and Perez-Gurri seem to have the kind of work I want looking at their before and after photos. I read that Salama staff didn't get fabulous reviews verses Perez- Gurri. Hoping to get some feedback from previous clients

Dr salama was my number one choice at one point but when I saw the different reviews here on rs about him leaving some of them with burns ... I switched up fast. He gives great results for patients who doesn't get burned but to me its not worth the risk. I have never heard of Perez-Gurri, but I hope you do find the doctor that's right for you.

Yes researching each doctor takes time but it's worth it. I keep narrowing it down. Dr Salama seems to deliver the big booty, like Hassan but I think they may be not using the caution and care that I desire with my BBL. Have you decided on a Plastic Surgeon yet?

Hey you have you considered any other doctor in Miami?

I liked dr mendieta a lot but what I Have found consistently is the top surgeon are heavily booked in Miami. I am not considering chop shop docs like vanity. I'm doing a consult her in VA with a top PS . Prices are the same (8000+) as the top docs in Miami.
