I'm choosing to go with the BBL Guru in Miami FL, the best Brazilian butt lift surgeon in the USA, Constantino Mendieta, MD. I say you CAN'T put a cheap price on a nice butt and body.

I have tried to put hard work into working out for a nice body before making this big diction. I hired a personal trainer and worked out for an hour 5 days a week for the last 5 months and haven't really gotten the results I've been wanting. I can say that my butt has gotten rounder from doing squats! I gain weight so fast that I'm constantly stressing about what I'm eating. I feel the need to ditch my friends just in case there will be the temptation of eating or snacking while with them. I have actually gained more weight from when I first started training and I think it has to do with the stress of it. The first place I gain weight is in all the places I don't want it and I lose weight in all the places I want to keep my fat. It's pretty damn stressful! I just feel like this surgery is the answer for me. I want to live life without being pissed off at my body 24/7 and stressing about what I'm eating every meal of the day! I want to transfer my fat cells to permanently change my fat distribution. Now I don't think that means I can just eat whatever I want from now on after the surgery but at least I'll gain it in all the right places instead. I eat better than most of the people I know. I eat organically, I eat mostly veggies with super-foods , meat for only one meal a day and if I do cheat it's on the weekends but it hits me hard. I can gain 5lbs in just a weekend WITH trying being carful! UGH!

When I get the surgery done, Ill be doing extra lipo to thin out and smooth out the rest of my body as well. I can't stand looking at before/after photos of girls that have gotten a BBL and they end up looking exactly the same with just a bigger butt. So they end up looking like they just gained weight in their ass but still look sloppy. I just feel like you have to do the whole shebang to make it worth it!

Good luck on your journey. I would suggest you commit yourself to some DEEP research on your doctor or any doctor for that matter. This isn't about just changing your shape. You need to consider recovery and aftercare. And of course do an in person consult and take a good look at . what's going on around you at the facility. Dont be seduced by what the doctor says about himself....Look and READ reviews. Good luck

Thank you so much. You are right! It is very easy to get caught up in the fantasy of it all before really knowing everything you should. That goes for a lot of things, like buying a car or a house. Thank you for the reminder. I will most defiantly do that.

Which Doctor would you recommend? I looked him up on BBB and he's got an A+. I've been searching and searching and I can't find anything bad about him. All the reviews that I have found have been good ones. If you have any good information Evonne please send it my way. Thank you.

I'm not unhappy. ... But I've had consults with other doctors for Round 2 & they say I look as if I had nothing done. Is that good or bad? Hmmm. I had a nice body to start so I guess I was looking for more. My weight, waist & stomach is larger than before I started this process. I gained the weight but he said he wasn't able to liposuction it due to hard fat. Not sure what that means but I'm positive it left me with a gut I never has before. & since I only got 480cc I'm scared to lose a lot of weight. Good luck. I do like Dr M. Just think maybe he to conservative for what I was expecting.

I will be 4 weeks post op with Dr. Mendienta this Tuesday. He is wonderful. I asked for a "snatched" waist and a "juicy" booty that looked like it belonged on my body and that's what I got. I'm a business professional that needs to fit business clothes but wanted to feel great naked and on the beach. I had to gain weight for my procedure and I won't know my final results for a few more months but I'm totally happy-- and I had no drains! He's a sculpturor. He costs more but what price for your life?!

My BBL#2 with Mendieta was a fiasco , he took my " good " fat Total of 4 liters and used just 1/4 of it ... He also gave me a square right hip. That I had to pay for to get fixed..Not a good body sculptor ....

I'm 7 months post op and definitely see a difference! He is very expensive, but I had no complications, my scars are nearly invisible, but I wanted more projection. I wish my butt was a bit bigger and I went with implants because I'm on the petite side. It was a tough recovery and I'm still dealing with some issues. Overall, I look much better in clothing/bathing suits and it was well worth it!! Best wishes to you!!

Ready to put down my down payment with Dr. Hasan Tomorrow

The last post I made was when I was 26 years old. I am 28 now and since then, I've been though a lot and ready to finally give myself the body and happiness I finally deserve. I also mentioned that I was going to choose Mendieta within 6 months but a lot has gotten in the way since then. Those things for me were being diagnosed with thyroid cancer along with Hashimoto's disease. I had gotten my thyroid removed and now my body looks even worse then it did before. Makes perfect sense now why no matter what I did, I just couldn't lose weight or truly sculpt my body though just exercise. Last time I checked with my doctor, I am clear of cancer and currently on the AIP diet to reverse my Hashimoto's disease. Life is short and I no longer want to spend it unhappy with the way I look. Every woman should feel on top of the world with her body. I'm determined to look better at age 29 then I've ever looked before.

Anyway, I am making the phone call tomorrow to put my $500 down. I picked Dr. Hasan instead because I love all his reviews and he does such a beautiful job on making a tight hour glass shape, I love it! It's really hard to even find a bad review on him even though I know they exist. I've been looking at doctors for 2 years now and Hasan seems to be more dramatic and I like that because I really need a noticeable change.

I can't wait to post my before and after photos for you guys!
