Hey girl, how are you doing? The 9-day postop looks great. Were you able to get back to work alright?
Thank you!!! I feel good. The turning point is honestly 7 days or so. I feel very Normal but I'm still pretty swollen. Otherwise I have no pain and no bruising anymore. My butt is a little sore and I'm not as agile just yet but I can absolutely carry on with normal life at this point. I spent a few hours walking around yesterday and zero issues Aside from swelling. I'm definitely already annoyed with the amount of effort it takes to get dressed and insert my foams but mostly just really excited to see the end result once I've completely healed.
Hi you look great! I have a 4 more months until my surgery with Dr. Salama. What recovery house did you stay at? I was thinking about staying at hotel and hiring a nurse? Any suggestions? Did you hire someone for your massages? I am so nervous
Thanks love! Congratulations on your upcoming surgery!!! Don't let yourself be too nervous - I can completely relate. I was sooooo nervous going into my surgery but Dr Salama has a very calm demeanor about him and I promise you'll immediately feel as ease. PLUS huge bonus that his anesthesiologist is drop dead gorgeous so that helped a bit (haha). I stayed at their recovery house - which I can PM you my personal suggestions on aftercare/etc if you'd like! I went to dr salamas office for the first two massages while I stayed in town for recovery. If you have ANY questions don't hesitate to ask. I completely understand being nervous but I can also tell you I'm thrilled with my results even though it's only been 2 weeks.
Yes can u pm me aftercare and wear to get faja....I believe it would be best to stay at RH but my hugs and wants to come so I was looking for hotels... please send info and what I need to bring in my PM
How are you doing lovey?
Im doing really well, thanj you for asking :) nust waiting for all of the swelling to subside but otherwise love my results thus far.

One week PO

So, tomorrow will officially be one week post surgery. I've definitely had my ups and downs since my BBL. the first few days weren't too terrible; I was pretty mobile and feeling well. The past couple of days I've felt a little worse. But I think I'm coming up on surpassing the worst of the worst. I did return from my second massage today and I'm finally starting to see my figure take shape a bit. My swellin has been so drastic I've looked much bigger than I did pre surgery. Looking in the mirror today I could see that my waist and flanks are starting to swell less and less and it's makes me really excited to see what my end result will be. Massages- holy heck those were very painful for me. I made sure to take my pain meds about 40 minutes prior to my massages and I was still in excruciating pain in certain areas. But, once the massages are over and they've been able to release some fluid you feel a thousand times better. It's almost like night and day. So worth it.

Day three

Day three has been a breeze. I'm still a bit sore but today was nothing compared to yesterday. Im in love with the shape of my body - just hoping I start shrinking a bit soon enough because right now I look like he added volume in my stomach and flanks! Haha. I still wake up in disbelief that I made it to this side.

The other girls at the RH here are so sweet. It's definitely nice to be around people who are also recovering from their own procedures.

Your shape look nice ! How many cc on each side ??? Hope you're feeling better !
Thank you! I'm still really swollen. I haven't asked how many ccs on each side yet. I just told him I wanted natural curves.
