****This is a new review of my rd 2 bbl, started it on my bbl 1 review but decided to move it over here. Please refer to my rd 1 review for info about my first bbl experience.***
hi dolls. I'm now a little over 3 months post and as many of u know, I plan to do a bbl round 2. I meet with dr. F for a follow up and he told me (not his words exactly, but I will summarize) that it's difficult for a person to go from having no booty to a large booty. Makes sense because the skin can take but so much fat being stuffed in. Because I plan to lose a significant amount of weight, I want dr. F to stuff my booty to the max lol! I also hope that he could get some fat from the back of my thighs because I have a lot of fat there. He told me that I would need to gain weight for rd2, but if fat from my abs and back is not enough, I will have fat removed from my thighs , upper back (possibly), and arms.
Let's start with "THE GOOD":
I want to reiterate that I love dr. F and vanity overall. I am most certain that dr. F will be doing my 2nd BBL and revision. He worked a miracle on my body. My lower back/Flanks fat is completed gone. Even tho my butt still looks small, it is way more fuller than what I had before. I was completed flat especially in the upper and mid butt. I had absolutely no volume in those areas. So I totally understand why my body couldn't take so much at that time. Everyone's body is different and mine just requires that I need to gradually go up in size and I'm a-ok with that :)
some of older post says that I wasn't sure if his technique works for my body. Honestly, no ps can guarantee that his or her technique would work for you and I can't determine that because I'm not a scientist, biologist, or doctor. However, i can say that recovery is emotional; one day u love ur results, others u hate it, so some of my rants are reflect my feeling at that moment which are subject to change either do to new info, knowledge, or whatever.
"THE BAD AND THE UGLY":
Unfortunately, my abdomen area didn't heal very well and my hips are uneven. I believe that I have scar tissue in certain areas of my abs. My masseuse noticed this as well. Dr. F told me to continue with massages and it would help soften it somewhat, which it has. My masseuse has golden hands and he has smooth out the area so much more than it was before. On a side note, if u had massages at vanity, his massages are very similar. His technique will definitely remove fluid, too bad I started going to him almost 2 months post op. I believe if I started earlier, I wouldn't have that scar tissue. Early in my recovery, it felt like there was fluid in these areas. As time passed, it seemed to harden and I believe it turned in scar tissue, not sure.
During my next follow up with dr. F, I will find out if a revision will be needed for my abdomen area to remove scar tissue.
My hips are also uneven. During bbl rd 2, I am thinking of not adding any fat to my hips. I think the whole hip thing is complicated for surgeons to do. I always see dolls complaining about their hips being uneven after sx. Dunno yet, it's just a thought for now.
Anyway, I will keep u all posted on bbl part 2.

PRODUCT REVIEW: Pretty Darn Good Boppy Pillow
I_deserve_itFebruary 14, 2015
***this is a review of Original Boppy Nursing Pillow which can be purchased on Amazon. You can also Google it to find other retailers who sell this item.***
I don't know if Anyone else has used this boppy pillow, but I find that it props u up pretty high. When using it, my butt would brush up lightly against the seat depending on how I posture myself (kinda hard to explain) but a lot of pressure will be placed on my thighs. Also, there is a zipper compartment where u could add towels or whatever to give extra support. I never added towels but I could see that as a possibility. Also, I didn't use this on the plane, just in my car and at work. I used a rolled up yoga mat on the plane which was very uncomfortable and it kept cutting off my circulation to my legs, which is not good at all. I had to keep standing every 20 mins. on the plane. I don't know if this pillow would fit in an airplane seat through because it's kinda bigger than the average boppy. First class maybe, but not sure abt average plane seat.
*****If u buy this to try it out first before deciding to keep it, please keep in mind that babies are usually placed on them so please use practice good hygiene when trying it out because if u decide to return it some mother may buy it and place her infant on it.******

Not a nursing pillow, regular pillow or rolled up anything thing kept my fat po ass off anything! I think I was like 170-175 for the first 2-3 weeks. This could work with the yoga mat or pool noodle under it.

yoga mat under prolly would work. That yoga mat directly under my thighs killed me, my blood circulation would cut off. Fisher told me not to use a yoga mat because this would happen, but I didn't bring my boppy to Miami so I had no choice. U live and u learn.

I think the pillow over the mat disburses the weight better and more evenly.
