First off let me say that the last thing I wanted to do was to be on real self writing a bad review about a doctor that I have put so much confidence trust and faith into. I hope you guys bear with me I'm on my smartphone. I really wish I had never got plastic surgery to begin with it really has ruined my life. I always had a booty naturally I just wanted a more curvaceous hourglass figure rather than just a butt. So in 2009 I went to Dr Mendita in Miami for a bbl and told him I just wanted fat transfer to hips well I ended up with a Super booty which was cool for couple months until it dropped and dents started to appear on both sides of my ass cheeks. I hated it I didn't have the money for travel hotel revision etc. So I literally had to live in hell of having a deformed ass for years. It totally affected my daily life there was times that I had panic attacks and I couldn't even leave the house because I got so tired of people laughing at me behind my back whispering behind my back asking me if my ass was fake asking me to touch it it seems like my whole life revolves around people making fun of my ass it was so horrible. Instead of wearing clothes to flaunt my ass I would hide it I do anything to have my natural shape back. So being a struggling single mom working two job who barely makes enough to pay bills i had to save up for 7 years to get my revision. All I wanted was a reduction and the dents on sides of my ass filled in just wanted to look natural don't want to be perfect just not laughed at and feel like everyone's staring at me as I walk by. So after years of stalking the site I found a doctor who seemed like the perfect fit as far as the his BBls looked very natural. So I paid 4500 for the surgery and 1500 for the recovery home which ended up being a total waste. I honestly could of saved up lil more and went to a doctor that actually communicate with their patient and has concern for their patients not someone who's just banging out surgeries like hi and bye literly. anyway my holes. Was awful I flew in to miami early that morning because they had told me to be there before 3 o'clock so I can do lab so I got here early driver pick me up from me straight to the anne and get to stop at the hotel and get dressed and get the sat at the end of the front office for about 4 hours they did my lab so I was waiting to speak to doctor of course I didn't get to even speak to the doctor. They told me my surgery was scheduled for 8 o'clock next day. So I finally get a ride back to the dumpy real shitty room smelled like smoke no "office" like they said no pool no view no nothing. Ugh then I get a call from vanity saying they changed my surgery till 8 o'clock at night the next day I was like are you serious I just wasted a whole day and night in Miami for nothing. So long story short I went in for my surgery spoke to the doctor very briefly right before my procedure told him exactly what I wanted they told me that my anesthesia I wasn't going to be as long as it usually is because I'm just doing a revision oh yeah by the way I found out that I was being overcharged 1500 dollars more than what all the other girls were paying i mean I don't know why I guess they try to take advantage of me because I'm out of town don't let them vanity sucks. Anyways so I wake up from surgery first thing I do is reach for my hips to see if they still feel botched and Ya they kind of did. So then I see a Gatorade sitting on the shelf above where I was laying not being able to reach for it I asked the lady to hand me the Gatorade do you believe that this lady took the drink and brought it to the Spanish girl next to me. I honestly feel like vanity treats there Spanish clients way better. Anyway so the lady the had spend the night with me was nice but she didn't speak a word of English good thing my X husband was Puerto Rican I learned Spanish or I would of been hit in Miami in general ordering food etc etc. Anyways finally looked in mirror at ass and noticed two horrible incisions on top of my butt cheaks!! WTF!!! And I had two incisions on but cheak line on each buttox. [RS bleep] awful all scared up for nothing. My last bbl he only left two small incisions on fold of each butt now I have 7 scares yay and I'm 4 weeks post oop and I'm miserable in pain. Not to mention I'm going to need another revision to look natural. Wish I could just find a surgeon to give me the hour glass figure I've been seeking and longing for for ever!!!

It would be really helpful if you could post before and after pictures. Do you have pictures before your first surgery, after your first surgery and now after your revision? Maybe you're being too hard on yourself or maybe your concerns are valid, but it's so hard to give you feedback with out pictures. I'm so sorry you are feeling so disappointed after all this time and money you have spent!

Wow, im so sorry to see/hear about ur awful experienceS...dang. i initially wanted to go to mendita and fisher, mendita was out of my budget and fisher staff was awful. Im shy of 3 months, still in pain..and looks like i DIDN'T have surgery. Not even sculptured. Im so thankful that my surgery went well and wasnt a fatality. ..im currently try to gain 15-20 pounds. Hoping my butt gets bigger. I teally cant afford another round, waste more money. R u going to have a 3rd round or revision?

So I just woke up and checked my email and realized that my review got published. I realized one huge thing I left out was at my last massage at vanity there supposed to remove your drains and stitches I had no drains and the girl only removed like two of my stitches of course I didn't notice this till I got home. Since I currently have no insurance (I kno Obama) but I make to much for benefits not enough for insurance payments(ikno totally off topic) long story short I had to remove the stitches myself which is crazy difficult seeing there on my butt. I had to use nail trimmer scissors and tweezers. Anyway I'm going to post some pics now

Well it seems to me you need to stop having surgery,I find it hard to believe Fisher didn't deliver whaet you wanted.
July 25, 2015
Well I have to reason to lie it is what it is
July 25, 2015
I think you believe everything you are saying, but looking at your picture your bottom looks nice and it's not as big as some girls get. Post some before pictures please!

Thanks for posting pics.. did u try any scar cream. I was told that there's a possibility of getting scars from the lipo & fat transfer sites. Dr. Fisher did warn me bout that bc my fair complexion .
July 25, 2015
I haven't tried any creams because I'm still wearing the garmet figured it would just wipe off
July 25, 2015
Oh, don't worry about scars this early! In a year or two you'll hardly be able to see them.
July 25, 2015
Thanks hun I can't wait till they disappear
July 25, 2015
I think those will fade away with time. Try scare cream. Your bottom looks nice and not too big! As far as drains go, you only have drains if you need them and some doctors don't use them at all. Maybe your protocol was different since you were having a reduction?
July 25, 2015
Scar not scare lol!
July 25, 2015
Yes my booty is huge but I'm very petite was not the look I was going for. I didn't want a"shelf but" I wanted a upside down heart shape. But whatever I'm healthy and alive. Just shelf butt doesn't look natural on me
July 25, 2015
I've been noticing it seems difficult for all these doctors to give the upside down heart. I heard it's because if they put fat down in the bottom half of your butt it's more likely to die. I'm not sure if that's true, but it's what I've heard. From what I can see your butt looks nice and has a lot of projection, but it's hard to tell from the pictures you have posted. I personally want to look "fake" I want to look like a cartoon, but everyone's personal goal is different.

Lol, my husband and I love big butts and I had one before I had children. My husband still has a picture of my old butt in his wallet, lol! I had a teeny waist and big hips. Then after pregnancy I ended up with a bigger waist and saggy bottom. We were both surprised and disappointed. I thought for sure my bottom would get bigger with pregnancy but it just got flat. Hoping this surgery restores it and then some!

Hood39 I see no pics on your profile how did Dr Fisher leave u?
July 25, 2015
He did a wonderful job on me, he give me the heart shape booty, being that I already had it naturally, he did his thing, as far as the pictures goes I been posted pictures of me naked and all but took them off here and would've took the video off but real self won't let you erase it

I'm not saying Fisher is a bad doctor I'm just simply sharing my experience. Vanity recovery Home was a rip off I payed 1500 for 3 nights for days when the other girls were only paying like 800. And they treat u like cargo just pick up drop off they see girls struggling in pain everyday is nothing to them. I was charged for a full bbl when I was simply getting dents filled in which didn't even full in. Just wish had a better outcome. Or just didn't waste my time or money a vacation would been nice o well. Stay blessed ladies.

I've heard all that before! I know Vanity staff and recover house has a bad reputation. It's a shame because Dr. Fisher does nice work.

Your butt looks good. Did you want a butt reduction or to fill in dents. The scars are barely visible.

I really would want Fisher but Vanity scares me.. do you have a pic showing overall proportions? your rear by itself looks great but I understand your concern is really that it is not proportionate to your overall physique, which is understandable. I admire girls who carry big donks well but definitely I would not want that
