WORTH IT$6,000
After hearing about the patient who recently lost her life while getting a BBL from Dr Calva at Eres I am starting to doubt my decision and I'm scared AF. My life is not worth a pair of nalgas as much as I want them. I'm so disappointed and upset because this is something I've been wanting for everrrr and my whole family supported me with my decision but now I want to cry because my whole family is against it after seeing in the news what happened with Dr CalvA who is in the SAME facility as Dr Fisher. Dr Fisher is the doctor I chose for my BBL and I was so close on choosing Dr Calva at one point because of his low prices. I'm in shocked state of mind knowing what happened with that woman and I can't stop thinking that that could have been me losing my life and Now my whole family is feeling sketched about this place and I have no one support anymore :( I'm confused and I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. I was so close to my dream and now looks like it was just a dream that won't come true... I'm so sad and confused.

Hello everyone, so I decided to go through with my decision of the BBL despite the news that came to my attention a couple months ago. If you read my last post you would know what I'm referring to. I went to see my primary doctor a week ago here in San Jose, and I asked her if I was a good candidate for the BBL procedure, I also shared my concerns. The doctor assured me that I am a good candidate because of several reasons. The most important one is that I'm young and healthy and that this procedure is less complicated than many other ones, and the risk is very low. Of course nothing in life is 100% guaranteed but that the percentage of a bad outcome is very very small. She told me to lose more weight before the procedure (im at 175lbs & height 5'6) for a higher success. So I am determined to lose the weight necessary for a much better result. Of course I'm going to leave some fat for the doctors to work with. I was told that not all the fat that transfers survives so I'm thinking I'm going to ask dr fisher to transfer more fat than what I want so whatever does survives gives me the look I want. Obviously I'm not too sure about how much I want transferred so i have to do more research on that. But I basically want a butt that looks natural NOT too huge but big enough. Anyways I had to change the dates of my procedure so my new date is MARCH 9! Super excited!

Todas is the 4t day after my surgery. I’m glad I’m alive and healthy even though I suffer from the operation pain but of course that’s normal. I’m happy I went through with it but I do gotta say Jolie plastic surgery made me go through a lot of unnecessary situations in order to get here. For one they are not organized well the staff sucks and they keep information from you until very last min. For example, when I finally finally got cleared for surgery they bring “live saver” to my attention (not sure if that’s what’s called or spelled because they literally informed me LAST min about it. So basically it’s a blood transfusion because apparently with a urgent like aBBL you lose A LOT of blood so or a better recovery the lean your own blood and put it back in you so you’re not as weak while recovering. Here’s the catch, it’s an ADDITIONAL $520, which you need to have available immediately before your surgery. I didn’t end up getting it because I never counted on having to pay for that so I was so close on canceling this whole [RS bleep] since I felt like the hospital was playing with my life by keeping important info like this. I don’t understand why wasn’t I aware of this, I’ve watched many YT videos and I don’t recall anyone bringing this up so I was really upset and felt very stupid and unprepared and when a patient feels that low it just means that the Staff lacks professionalism . No patient should feel like that right before they’re about to put their lives on their stupid hands. Anyways after I spoke to DR Fisher i decided to just go for the surgery w/o the blood transfusion. Speaking about Dr Fisher, he’s nothing I imagined him to be, everyone says how cool and comforting is talking to him but I didn’t get that vibe at all. One thing I disliked about him is that he wouldn’t let me talk he would just talk over me and it was kinda weird because I still felt uncomfortable and nervous and he did not make it any easier. If it wasn’t for my tremendous courage I would have quit all this long time ago when Jolie plastic surgery staff couldn’t even take my f****ng calls (do you know how fukeddd up that was especially couple days before my surgery btw my pre op organizer was KARLA and she lacks professionalism but I guess they ALL do because I heard other girls complain about the same thing as well) my desire for a BBL was so much bigger than all this bs I had to overcome. So anyways I’m finally over that first stage but let me prepare you on the stuff you need before you get ripped off like I did. The faja is $120, the paddings and ab board all together was $100, my arm garment was $60, the massages were $350 (honestly those massages are so basic like literally even my stupid bf who was clueless af in this whole process could have done the massages for me that’s how basic the massages are. Thy only use hot lotion and with her hand she did circle motions on my whole back and arms) I heard of other massage places that are better like Miami contour 360 which is nearby but I can’t speak for them since I didnt get to try it. I’m thinking of getting my second faja there tho it’s cheaper. Hmmm what else??? Im trying to think on what other ways I got ripped off. Just bring EXTRA money believe me count on it. So about my results I actually love it so far looks good but I can’t wait for the swelling to go down and see how my figure transforms. I actually regret doing the lipo on my arms becaus no only I paid $500 extra but I feel like it doesn’t look much different other than the bruising they left me and hurts like hell. But once again I can’t make a full judgement on that either until the swelling goes away, just know it made my recover 10 times harder because it was difficult to push my body up with my bruised up arms. Thats all I got for today. I’ll show pics before and after pics when I get the energy to get up but meanwhile I’ll answer any questions (:

So happy that you are well and still went through with yoiur surgery. This is already a stressful situation and dealing with some medical facilities that are not on top of their game makes it even harder.
