GOOD NEWS ABOUT SEROMA
WORTH IT$4,100
Sorry I haven't been around, I have had a lot on my plate since taking so much time off. Still paying off my credit card and it has been hard. No regrets though
Good news, my seroma has started to reabsorb FINALLY!!!!! ATTN ANY FUTURE DOLL WITH SEROMA: aspirate that sucker til you can't get anything else out then wait a week or 2 or until you're a month or so postop. I had it drained and drained and drained til we couldn't get anything out but some old dark blood. I still had the fluid wave for a week and half or so after that so I was panicking thinking I was gonna have to see a PS in my home state. Everything I searched on rs was doctors saying basically "you are so stupid to go out of state" and "you are gonna have to do all these expensive procedures" and worst case scenarios to every girl who asked about it. I did read that seromas usually self resolve in 4-6 weeks if you drain them... so that gave me a little hope... then it happened for me! It went from being a fluid wave about the size of my entire hand to being almost nothing and now is maybe a quarter of that size. So any doll who is panicking now, just chill out til week 4-6 lol. Don't be like me and make yourself miserable and stressed out. Just get drained. And if youre an out of state patient... have a back up plan and find someone who can drain you.
I have to say it is suddenly like a dark cloud lifted and I feel good about the surgery again. I was feeling depressed before and... not exactly regretful but still kicking myself for going out of state for bbl. Now that I am better I feel good about it and I think 4k for BBL with an excellent surgeon was a pretty damn good deal lol.
Other than that: my booty has shrunk slightly I think and there are small dents now. They aren't a huge deal to me and I still like my butt. I think I do however have that classic case of booty greed. I have turned out to be the typical post bbl girl in every way. Now I am too superstitious to say "lmao" too LOL I have had to stop myself a few times because God knows I do not want to laugh this ass off.
My stomach has started looking much more even since the seroma has shrunk and I am veeeeery relieved. The lipo overall is even. I am just not happy with the fat left behind on my waist and that is why I'm still considering round 2. Outside my garment I'm not completely happy but in my garment I look pretty darn good esp considering my starting point. What I wanted was to look and feel good naked so I am still gonna be greedy and go for another round I think.
posting a few quick but not great pics for the pic hungry, sorry about my bathroom mirror lol. i will post more w before pics later too i'm just very busy and stressed but that's life. hope all u ladies are doing well

Hi dolls
Not much has changed but I figured since 1mo is a milestone I would update.
I started to rapidly get less numb and needed ibuprofen for awhile because the aches were killer. It settled down and now I feel pretty good without pain meds. The only place I'm still numb is my lower back... some guy had his hand on my lower back the other day and I didn't even feel it or know it was there until I looked and was like NO SIR.
After surgery, I developed 2 seromas. One was smaller on my right side and has resolved on its own. The other on my left side was much bigger so I had to get repeat needle draining. Each time the amount taken out was less and less which is a good thing because it means it's at least not getting worse. But as of today I still have the fluid wave and the last few times we tried, we were unable to get any fluid out. It is hard to say WHERE whatever fluid is left in there is exactly without an ultrasound machine. Sometimes I feel depressed about it and worried that it's going to create a deformity, but I haven't gotten to the point of desperation where I'm going to doctor shop for someone around here to put a drain in. If the seroma still doesn't resolve within the next month and we still can't get more fluid out by needle then I'm going to go see a doctor and consider letting them extort me for another $1k for a drain. Until then, I really don't want to deal with anyone's bitchy office staff not letting me speak to a manager because they don't understand the word "seroma" or telling me that a doc won't see me because I had the surgery with someone else. Or dealing w a doc who doesn't know jack about seromas but is willing to wing it on my dime... and overall my strength to deal with ignorant office staff is about -100 right now for real.
Even though I have been depressed about the seroma, I am pretty happy with my results. I love my butt and pray every day it doesn't shrink anymore... it is natural looking and round and I love it. My back looks smooth and I look 10x better in clothes. The naked me still needs work bc the stomach is lumpy but the back rolls are goooone and I'm very grateful for that.
Thinking back to meeting with Hasan when he told me I was big I was kind of insulted, but when I look at my before pictures now I'm like... maybe I was kind of big. I never felt like a "big" girl but I had a lot of hip and gut going on. Hasan removed almost all my hips, but there's still a pad of fat around my waist that has become more obvious as swelling decreases. I don't doubt he removed the max 4 liters so I think that's just the way the cookie crumbled... To get rid of all my love handles, some fat was left on the waist. I would have preferred less waist fat even if it meant more love handle but I think Hasan is very anti-love handle as his main aesthetic.
Even while I am dealing with a complication, I have been thinking of doing the one thing I said I would not do which is getting a round 2. The thing is I don't have that much fat left and the fat that I do have left I don't want taken out (thighs and booty). I have been considering maybe having my arms done since they look proportioned larger than my body now and then getting the rest of my waist fat out. I am conflicted on whether I would go back to Vanity. On the one hand I don't feel like I could get a surgeon the same quality as Hasan or Fisher where I live and definitely not for the price. On the other hand having a complication as an out of state patient is horrible and now I know how risky that was to do because every other doctor will resent you and punish you financially for not doing the surgery with them if you develop an issue postop. I am also currently undecided as to whether drains would be that important of a factor for me in a round 2 since I wouldn't be getting as much fat out and so wouldn't have as much risk of a huge dead space like what I have now after getting so much stomach fat removed.
Soooo I think that's about all there is to update on for now. Crazy pumpkin is praying for a seroma miracle and considering round 2.

I want to see pics I hate that happen to you but if you want a round two I'm in Atlanta you can come stay with me il take you to dr jimmerson the best in my town and
I watch after you as if your were in a home away the only reason I didn't go to him whic I would have over Hassan is because he was booked up to 2017 and was only open sooner for those who had cash since I have care credit I could of been on fast tracking but vanity gave me a date and there wasn't a consultation
awwwww man holly u are the sweetest lol!!!!! That would still be out of state for me though... but I will look into him
I know that why I said il help you il get your from the airport and you can come stay at my house while your in sx I'm just throwing it out there did the needle draining hurt?
yes doll u are the sweetest lol u cheered me up... problem is if i get a problem like a seroma like I did this time I need to be hauling myself to the doc every week for a long time. ): Yes, the needle hurt me! I have been having a nurse do it and she doesn't have lidocaine shots so it has been a b*tch. Every time I have had that needle in my gut I hear music from the twilight zone and wonder how I got myself into this lmao
Omg yes the numbin would make it better well no worriers think about it I'm here my number is 6787518643 holly
Good luck with that seroma...I'm sure it'll get better. Happy healing to you Pumpkin!!!
thx girl
Happy to hear from you....but ummm wheres the pic?? Ive been waiting to see your progress lol.... you know you are harder on yourself than you should be. Theres people on month 3 still healing so ...I totally can see the fustration. Hang in there love.
Hey doll... reason I haven't posted pics is I feel like I look worse now than the pics I posted before... like idk if I'm crazy or something but my muscles have felt tighter and I feel like I look weird. I could post pix in clothes and my garment and look good but my actual stomach is no bueno right now. I have been using a foam roller to massage my side abdominal muscles bc those suckers are SO TIGHT sometimes and it makes me look bloated. I'm like wtf man I have no fat there it's just my spazzy muscles sticking out
I kind of figured that :( but trust the process tho..... your last pics did not look bad at all....hence why we post pics to get encouragement as we go through the post op blues.....its like the postpartum of bbl lol..first we go through bipolar then postpartum....smh and Im signing up for this
That's true I will post soon it just bums me out. I thought I was gonna be a soldier thru this but I have gone through every stereotypical bbl stage lol. I see a lot of ppl recovering without complications though so there is hope
Im sure Ill be through the same lol ...everyone heals and goes through the process differently ....hang in there
I'd love to see the pics Hun... I'm glad you're feeling better
Thx doll will post soon
Please keep us posted on how you are feeling and are you trying any natural remedies? Please post pictures so that way we can be prepared if the same happens to us. I am scheduled to get a BBL with Dr. Hasan Sept.16 and I am super nervous. The stomach is something I am definitely concerned with. Thank you so much for your informative post.

Seroma
I had my seroma drained yesterday. It is already filled up again today. I read that the more you drain it the more likely it is to go away but there are some stubborn ones that require bigger drains and surgery and I'm praying my seroma isn't as stubborn as I am... If it's not treated it can also form a capsule made of scar tissue that prevents it from being reabsorbed by the body and causes deformity...
So I had a major surgery and this was a known potential complication. All things considered I'm still doing well. My butt isn't really swollen anymore so it looks smaller but the shape is beautiful and natural. Love my back. My stomach looks a mess at times but sometimes I get glimpses of how it might look when healed up. All that said I would be lying if I said this didn't bum me out and make me worry. I'm about ready to get back to normal life and this is just one more thing.
I will say if I ever do a round 2 bbl... Which I said I would never do but who knows if I'm not happy with my stomach I might break down and consider it... If i ever did it, I would probably go to a doc who uses drains. Yes hasan is a great sculptor and yes my incisions are already healing subtle/beautifully but that's just my opinion, I would rather minimize seroma risk as much as possible.
To my dolls who travel out of state for this, have a back up plan. Know ahead of time what your options are in case you get seroma. Some docs in your home state won't see you or touch another docs patient due to liability, others will try to capitalize on your misfortune n overcharge you. I am fortunate I have some medical professionals in my family to help me... Just be prepared if u need help back home. I was too idealistic and naive to consider this before my own sx.
My credit card was stolen and had $500 charged to it fraudulently and I'm just kind of in a bad mood lol. I'm taking my pics down for now. I will put some back up later in a side by side before and after when I'm 100%.
I just want to say I love u girls, you are all so brave. Thank you for supporting me and helping me through this journey and i genuinely wish u all the best, all the confidence, that all your dreams come true. I'll keep u posted on my water balloon problems.
