Just Scheduled BBL with Hasan! - Miami, FL

I just scheduled my BBL with Hasan for Dec. 3rd. Like most, I've been lurking on this site for a while and finally got up the nerve, time, and funds to get surgery. I'm researching recovery houses now... I called Moni's recovery house but they're booked during the time of my appt. I've been trying to find info on Xanadu through Vanity but I haven't seen much of anything. Anyone know how they are?

I'm going to try and do well with these updates because I really appreciated reading these when I was researching my procedure:
I just got off of the phone with Rosemarie and I'm booking at her recovery house for 7 days (A & R Recovery). It's DEFINITELY more expensive than some of the other options now that they've changed their prices on the website and b/c I'm bringing a guest. When I was researching, she had great reviews from other girls. Fyi, they charge 100/day if you bring a guest, she gave me a $100 discount. I don't know if that was always a policy but it is now. My sister liked how that house looked better since she'll be sitting around reading or on the computer, so her comfort was a big factor in that decision. So for 7 days for me ($1650) and sister ($600) brings that total to $2250. Without the extra person it's about the same as Mary and Elite Nursing Concierge because Rosemarie includes all of your supplies in the cost. I purchased an extra faja for $100 and she threw in a massage (better than nothing i guess), and still probably cheaper than my sister staying at a hotel since 3 meals/day are included for her as well. I got the faja thru her b/c I didn't want to deal with sizing issues if I purchase one beforehand. I'm going to send her my weight/measurements 3 days ahead of time and she'll buy what I need. I know there is a markup.

Another FYI: If you didn't see it in the comments from my last post, Mary was $150/day w/o massages, $200 with... no supplies were included, but a guest was free.

Review of Rosemarie so far:
Rosemarie was very knowledgeable about the entire process and Vanity's procedures. I haven't heard anything from Vanity since I put my deposit, but it's still over a month away so we'll see. I'm waiting to hear when I have to do my bloodwork. If any VETS have insight on this please comment. Either way, back to Rosemarie. She told me that I'll have to go to Vanity the day before to fill out paperwork, do last min tests (pregnancy test, etc), and make sure I'm all paid up. She said for me to come to the recovery house early the day before so they can drive me to Vanity since all that has to be done before 3PM. All of our interactions have been pleasant and she definitely is already helping me feel comfortable. My 7 day package includes:
3 meal per day (me and sis)
-Transportation (me and sis)
-2 Massages (+1 extra)
-1 Garment (+1 extra)
-2 Lipo Foam Boards
-1 Lipo Board
-Boppy Pillow
-Yoga Mat
-Arnica Cream
-Feminine Pads
-Cleaning Wipes

If anyone has questions I'll do my best to answer them.

I'll do before pics and wish pics closer to the date :)

I decided to move parts of a discussion I've been having in the comments into a post because I do believe it's important. First, I'll address the death of one of Hasan's patients in 2014 that was in the news because that's how the conversation got started. If you search, he had a 51 yr old patient of his die after being taken to a hospital (following the procedure) of a lung embolism. Basically, that is fatty tissue causing a blockage to the lung. I did ask about this incident when I spoke to the coordinator over the phone, and she seemed open to talking about it and answering whatever questions I had. She said that the lady died, but the news left out that she had a pre-existing condition which she never disclosed that made her more susceptible to that type of complication. I'm not going to argue who is telling the truth, but what I will say that regardless of who you choose, DO YOUR RESEARCH on the complications associated with whatever procedure you are having, and do your best to prepare your body to heal as effectively as possible.

When I was researching Drs, I spoke face to face with a local one and asked him about the complication with BBL. A big one from the fat grafting is pulmonary embolism due to too much fat entering a vein or artery and making it's way to your lung. (Paraphrasing from what I remember). He said that the method to reducing that is quick movements when reinjecting the fat back into the body so even if you do get some into the blood stream, the amount is small enough to pass thru. I looked it up some more and that's one of the main reasons they make you wear compression socks after surgery , as the blockages usually start in the legs and move their way up. Clots are also a big reason they tell you to move around/walk to promote circulation.

Some of the rare complications that he mentioned for liposuction (& other surgical procedures) include infections, bleeding, skin ulcerations, nerve injury, seromas (fluid under skin), pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs), hemotoma (bleeding under skin), and puncturing an organ.

There are DEFINITE risks/complications with this (and any) type of surgery, even tho they are the rare cases. From what I have been reading, most dolls that experience complications get infections or dizziness/fainting/low blood pressure due to the blood loss and need to be admitted to the hospital for treatment... i've read some who experienced "garment burn" (garments that are too tight creates sores that look like 3rd degree burns) and fat necrosis. The best thing I can say is make sure you do read all of the possible negatives, be HONEST and thorough in disclosing all of your pre-existing conditions, and again, prepare your body to heal as much as you can before and after surgery.

Let me also say I'm sure there's a bunch of stuff I've missed. I just wrote this as a reaction to replying to another user. I am also by NO means a medical professional. You'd all be better off using google, or more importantly, asking your doctor or surgeon. It's just good to be aware of the risks so that we better take care of ourselves. And also try to learn the early warning signs and symptoms.

I'll end on a happy note...that the complications are rare, and Dr's check your information to make sure you're not at increased risk for any of the issues i mention. So keep yourselves safe dolls so we all leave this experience with positive memories :)
