Hello to all of you who have been awaiting this day. I am now about 4 months post op and have mixed feelings about my results. I from the beginning did not have a totally out of shape or boxed body. So I know many of you will say I’m crazy when I say I’m not in love with my results. Dr.Balgobin is the most pleasant, humble, professional doctor out there but me myself personally had very high expectations of his work. He lipo’d the hell out of my waist,back,stomach, and love handles. As He gave me that snatched waist as I wanted but when it came to the projection and roundness part of my batt I’m not to happy with. I didn’t have a pancake butt to begin with as you all can see, but I swear my butt look the same as b4 surgery with very minimal projection and zero roundness. I do know and clearly understand results may very from person to person but I’m like my God!!! As far as following doc’s direction for post op I followed them to the t. I still at 4 months wear garment EVERY night with a waist trainer. I also wear a waist trainer every day during the day, the only time I’m not in it is when I’m going some were special. Lol . I also still to this day use my bbl pillow at work and while driving. I am most def not discrediting Dr.B work just giving you all my feelings on my personal results that I’m not head over hills in love with that I paid 10k for. And to end this review I’m going to pass on some words of wisdom from a doll post I just read. Make sure when researching and looking at doc’s after surgery pictures make sure you look at ones from 6 months to 1 years result pictures. Oh and I am considering a round 2 next year with a new doctor, just haven’t decided on one yet.

Hi self madeover! I too had sx with dr B Feb 8th & i agree with you Dr B is super sweet & humble i loved him as a person but i too wish i could say the same about his work. I feel like i look exactly the same maybe with a smaller waist & that’s a strong maybe lol All in all on a scale from 1-10 my overall experience is a 2! Thats only because be was super nice! Good luck on round 2!

I probably would give a 2 as well. Especially since when I went it was required to stay at a recovery house and that was a nightmare and also a waste of another 1k more on top of the 10k. SMH !!!!!!!!

Sorry you both had that experience. I was scheduled for him in May but after seeing many post like this I am now in search of a new doctor. Do you ladies have any suggestions? I was thinking Dowbak but I haven't seen any long term dolls to know if his work is worth it.

Hello lady, I have been strongly considering the DR. I feel I should have went there the 1st time around and I wouldn't be in the boat i'm in now. I mean I paid 10k and don't have a 10k body. So its your money just chose your dr wisely. Good luck. oh and I have seen Dowbak work and its Ok. but i feel all dr's here in the US work is ok. lol

Hi! I like dowbacks work! If i do a round 2 i was strongly considering him! But under the right circumstances I’d go to DR as well! But just make sure you do your research! Good luck on our sx in September!
