Ok this is the 3rd time I've written this story! It keeps resetting itself lol. I am trying again!

I finally had my consult with Lagrasso. I have another with Dr Perry in 2 days. I have been wanting this for years and have been stalking this site for over a year. It has been the greatest help!!! I have to get this procedure done ASAP in June! It's the only time that works with my schedule. My only obstacle is getting my financing approved which was an issue for me in the past. I'm crossing my fingers that it'll go through this time and I will finally get this done! I've been wanting lipo for eveerrrrrr, but now we get this awesome two in one deal! Lol

I am 5'5 and have large breats, very small hips and very small booty and have always had chub around my middle! I work out all the time and nothing ever gets rid of it. It's so amazing to know tha I can now have it moved from my waist to my butt! Lol! Woohoo! I will post some before pix as soon as I get my date scheduled, but my body type is VERY similar to Sassy33. Her results are amazing.

Lagrasso said he would put in around 750 CC's but I'm afraid that's too much! Does anyone know what that looks like? Anyone have that much done on them?
I really only want a small round bubble! I will post a wish pic and I really want as close to that as possible! I don't know how many CC's that is but I was thinking more around 500, not 750?

I was quoted $7000 for everything including arms. I am going to check Perry's quote as well. I was hoping to be in the 6500 range but we will see.

Has anyone had consults with both these doctors? Can anyone tell me why they chose one over the other? I'm so nervous about not getting what I want!! I'm going to be freaking out. I like the waist that perry gives but I like that lagrasso uses vaser lipo. I don't know who to choose!

I will update after my consult with perry! In the meantime all comments are welcome!! Thanks :)

I had my consultation with both docs. If ur looking for price LaGrasso would be ur best bet. Dr. Perry gave me a quote of $8200 since I'll be paying cash. Perry does stomach, full back, arms, inner thighs, flanks, & inner knees which I need. LaGrasso originally quoted me $7500 but Jeannie emailed me and told me they just started running a promo for $6k which includes stomach, flanks, bra roll, mid and lower back and two garments. Usually it'll run $7500 without the garment. Each garment is $150 and u will need at least 2. Plus he requires his patients to set up at least 10 messages post op which will cost $700 additional with an outside contractor otherwise it's $80 each session. I hope this helps! Good luck on ur journey hun!!!

Hey! Thanks for the help. Is 8200 Perry's quote as of recent? I heard his price went up from last year so that would make sense. Hmmm...well I was quoted 7000 with my arms and 2 garments. I think they change stuff around however they want lol. I hear different quotes for the same things done. Shrug. I know the massages would be alot but I intend to find someone else to do them that are close to my house. It's not a requirement to hire the therapist from their place for 700$ for 10 massages. I'm sure if you say you don't need that you won't have to payfor it. I don't even think some of the people get the massages at all. I was hoping dr. Perry would still be in the low $7000 range. Blah.
May 22, 2013
Yeah it's $7000 if u add ur arms with Lagrasso. But if u weren't adding any other zones it'll be $6k. It's technically $8400 with perry but he gives $200 off if u pay cash so in my case it'll be $8200. Lagrasso charges $1k for additional zones.

May 22, 2013
If I Only want my arms would it be 7000$ with perry too? What's his BBL lipo consist of? Full abs flanks and back?
May 22, 2013
Idk..u can ask. I don't see why not if u don't need any other zones done. Perry quoted me $8200..consist of full stomach, full back, flanks, arms, inner thighs, and inner knees.

Wow dr perry webt way up! Lagrasso charges 5750 for bbl if u go to pascual md office not tribeca

May 22, 2013
I didnt have to set up massages at all i did mine at massage envy wow some shyt has changed lol
May 23, 2013
I had a phone consultation with pascual and one of the lady said lagrasso doesn't do bbl's for pascual that's why I decided to go elsewhere. I'm ok with paying that price tho cuz I like Perry's work.
May 30, 2013
I strongly recommend the massages! This is very important and it helps!!!! I had the massage lady come to my house it was like seeing an angel come in and looked forward to them. Make sure you get these. I did like 15 because I wanted to and know she will be coming once a month.

Did you go with the therapist Jeannie recommends? It's so expensive ugh. I was thinking about having her do the first couple and then maybe finding someone near my house to go to that does them. I'm not sure but I don't really want to spend an extra 700$ on massages. Blah.
June 1, 2013
What's the lady's name? Is 700 for 10?
User Avatar
June 1, 2013
I think it's Miriam? Yes I think it's 10. I Figured I would just get the first 3 from her and then go to a place near me for cheaper.
June 2, 2013
I did them with her it's Mariaugenia not sure if I'm spelling it correctly. She was actually less expensive some other places were charging $114 for the lymphatic massage, she was more convenient she comes to your house trust me your not goin to want to go anywhere for at least 2 weeks you wont be able to sit for 15 days dont forget. I'm glad I had the massages they really helped me. At first she will do them soft and then go harder as you get better. I looked forward to them I had like 15 sessions lol.
May 22, 2013
Oh and I'm 5'2" at 167 lbs and I'm looking to get at least 1000+ cc's and 250 cc's in the hips. It'll all depend on ur height and weight. Most women will get the bubble butt look with even just 700 cc's so I think u should be good with 700. Do u have any before pics??

Are you going to dr lagrasso or perry? I'm going to put pix up as soon as I get my sx day scheduled.

I also wonder if lagrasso is as aggressive with his lipo as perry is.
May 22, 2013
I'm going to perry for sure! I've talked to him personally and he's very a coo person. I was never able to talk to the doc personally with my other consultations. I've only talked to the ladies that does all the processing. Tho Jeannie from lagrassos office is very sweet and his work his not too bad I prefer to go to perry. Jeannie emailed me a before and after pic of herself and her shape and booty was nice!! Done by lagrasso. Plus she was the same height and about 5-10 lbs heavier than I am and as I mentioned her butt was nice. She had 700 cc's in each.

I got 650ccs n achieved my goal look so she is right im short so 1000 ccs woulda looked so fake and ridiculous on me
User Avatar
May 23, 2013
What?! You only got 650 CC?? Oh wow. I would have guessed much more. Lol. Ok well now I have no clue what to ask for. Did you already have some volume before the procedure or were you totally flat?
User Avatar
May 23, 2013
I wasnt totally flat i had deflated saggy butt cheeks i told him to inflate them a lil and put some hips in nothing HUGE bc erh my boyfriend still doesnt kno i had thisdone he thinks i only had lipo i didnt give him a cc amount or goal i showed a few pictures.

He also wil only inject viable fat cells and little to no fluid with it. Some drs dnt purify thefat as mich but this also means u will b under for awhile longer. My surgery was almost 5 hrs
May 27, 2013

May 27, 2013
I called the office and talked to Norma and she usually tell me when the best time to call him and she gave me his cell #. I got him every time I called which I thought was amazing! Try calling his office and go from there. I believe their voicemail also has his cell # as an alt # to call. Has he emailed u ur quote yet?? He does take a little while to get back to u. Good luck!!
May 30, 2013
He will suck all the fat he can!!! Trust me on that lol!!!
May 30, 2013
Girl let him put the 750 he knows. At first it will look so big once the swelling goes down it will start to look nice and normal then your going to think you want it bigger. I catch myself doing it all the time you will become obssessed with it you will see. I caress mine every morning to make sure it is still there Hahahaha

May 31, 2013
BAHAHAHAHA OMG that's hilarious. Ok well look at my wish pics. I might ask for 800...what do u think those are?? I mean I have NOTHING so I know I'm going to need around that much right?
May 31, 2013
How much do you weight now? Girl I saw your pics, he will suck all the fat he can possibly take out trust me. Go with as much transfer it can take. I told him I wanted a JLO/KK butt. LOL!
User Avatar
June 1, 2013
I gained 10lbs so I'm at like 146 now. I don't want a JLO booty tho! Lol. How many CC's do u think my wish pics are? U think he will take all the fat I have so there's nothing left?? I sure hope I don't have too much to where he can't take it all. 4 liters is the max allowed. I think I should have about that lol
June 1, 2013
I was 147 when I did mine and now I'm like 135. Let the doc do his thing he knows best don't worry about how many CCs he will put what he feels goes perfect with your figure. Like I said it goes down so it better he puts more than less. I think 750 / 800 will be ok.

Omg tribeca is milkin ppls pockets i used lagrass thru pascual md med clinic in aventura. I paid 5750 for erything including garments and massages and each additional area is 500 dollars good lawddd tribeca is trippin lol
User Avatar
May 23, 2013
Lol!! Yeah it's bc that's his private practice. He's going to be leaving pascual from what I hear eventually. Pascual charges that bc it's the facilities price so he can't really argue. TriBeca is his practice so he charges what he wants there. The special at pascual doesn't include anesthesia or garments though. And TriBeca includes everything plus 2 garments. I heard the customer service isn't very good at pascual though so that's a big deal for me.
May 23, 2013
Yeah....their service is not that great at pascual which was why I didn't go there even tho the price was great but I'd prefer to pay for better service.

I had to cancel my consult with Perry. I had to go out of town all weekend. I've been gone since Thursday and just got back last night (Monday). Apparently my surgery is scheduled for Sat June 1st!! That is in 3 days!!! There's no way I can do that! I haven't even gone to the 10 day preop appointment lol. I think I'm going to push it back for the following Saturday if its available.

Can some one tell me what the most important things are that I need to get before the date? What have you found to be the most important things you couldn't have gone without? What made it more comfortable and what helps speed the recovery process ?

Please give me items to get or ways I can prepare! I'm so scared! This is all so fast. I wasn't even sure I was goig to get the financing, but I did and now all the sudden a week later I'm doing this!! It's so surreal!!!

I will post before pix soon!

Please give me some items to get and some comfort to ease my nerves!

I had my pre op at TriBeca today. Jeannie is so great. I'm having issues with my relationship and having no support from my fiancé. Things are looking like they're on the way out at this point so we will most likely be breaking up. It's just the worst timing for all of this to be happening. He said he won't be there to help me or support me but Jeannie said she would pick me up from my house the day of surgery and bring me home after. She is great!!

I do have the option to stay in a hotel after with a CNA to help me if I need to. The main problem is my son and what I can do with him during the process. I don't have family or friends around to help so it will be a challenge. I wish I had someone around for a couple of days or a friend to help with my son. It sucks.

My date is set for June 10 but I may wait until the end of the month.

I am getting a BBL with full abs, back, arms and chin. I can't wait! I'm going to be really hating life with all these different garments on though..in the middle of summer!!

I am excited but I wish I had the support of my fiancé and more people around to help. :(

Anyway I'm going to post more wish pics and before pics now even though I really don't want to! Haha. I can't wait until I will be proud of my body!

800 ccs per cheek should do the trick because ur tiny. Get arnica pills and gel, vitamin c and e. Bromelin. It helps with swelling so does pineapple. Loose fitting dark dress for day of sx. Bed pads for leakage. Neosporin, benadryl for itching. The pain meds make u itch. Funnel or female urinal. Lymphatic massages.

June 4, 2013
oh thank you sooooo much for posting that. I was trying to figure out what to get this whole week. They have arnica cream at cvs. Will that work? I don't see pills. Also, is it the same to just eat a ton of pineapple or should I get actual pills of Bromelin? Do they make that? lol.
