I'm at the fluffing stage now. My butt is getting realistically soft now. And the swellings in my lipo areas are going down but my tummy isn't as flat as I want it to be. I've been told to be patient so that's what I'm gonna do. I noticed some bruising from the compression garments. I can't wait to graduate to stage 2 Garment this time next week.

He did a better job on my stomach as opposed to my butt. I had a lot of fat which he also confirmed. So I'm very disappointed with my result considering I had a big bum before the surgery. I was looking for more roundness, hips and more projection. It doesn't look like I had anything done to my butt and I won't be telling anyone I did. I had higher expectations from the reviews I read here and considering I told him I wanted big.

Hey Sexybombshell, I'm loving your results! I just booked with Dr. Schulman. I'll be traveling to NYC and was thinking of staying at the Marriott, since it's discounted and close. Is that where you stayed?
Yes! That's where I stayed. When is your sx? If u are doing it in the old OR then marriot is just a 5 mins walk from there. Like I just strolled there the morning of my bbl.
OK thanks! It's not until December 8th.
Good results!! Any updated pic? What was the discount for the hotel?
Oh man I can't wait to fluff. I think you look great but I know what you mean about booty greed. I went with another surgeon and while I do see a difference I'm definitely thinking about round 2 already. I just want a fatty lol. Again you look awesome.
Look up Dr. Blinksi if going for round 2. Btw you look amazing!
How do you feel about your results now being that it has been 1year+? I am having a BBL with Dr. Schulman next week and I am so excited. I am also very nervous because after all this money I spent Ill be pissed and depressed if I dont get the result I am looking for.

Had higher expectations

To be honest , I'm not so happy with my result. I feel like I didn't get enough value for my money. I had a much higher expectation considering the amount I spent. Considering I had so much fat, and wasn't a flattie before the surgery, all that was done to my butt was more projection and nothin was actually done to my hips and my stomach which I paid extra for isn't as flat as I wanted it to be. I'm trying not to upset myself my thinking of how much time, effort and money was invested. I've started looking for another Dr to have a round 2 with probably next year or after I have my kids. A doctor that's top on my list is Dr Miami. It seems giving the hippie look is his forte and I like that. Plus he's not even as expensive.

Omg!! Really??? Now I'm reconsidering?
Well... I was told to be more patient that it takes months for swellings in lipo areas to go down. So I guess id keep updating and maybe I'm jus being booty greedy! But I'd definitely be doingreat a round 2 in a few years
Lol ok I thought it was dr schulman not doing a great job. So I'm gonna go n book the date... N jut to let you know there is a big difference with your before n after you look great
Awwww thanks! Good luck with yours.
How are you doing?
I'm doing great! Started wearing my stage 2 Garment on monday. Loving my tummy especially! Swellings have gone down considerably. I'm gonna be a month post op 2mrw. Now I can wear crop tops! This is the flattest I've ever seen my tummy. Yaaay
All smiles I'm so happy for you,,, I can't wait
I wanted to ask if you had taken any vitamins or anything before surgery to help with recovery?
No I didn't. It was on the preop requiremends I wasn't sent tho. But I don't think it's important.
Sorry it was on the preop guidelines I was sent..... Sorry for the typo in my previous response
Personally I think you look great!

Shower day and first look at my result

saw my body for the first time today post op. I'm not a very inquisitive person and I tend to follow instructions to the last letter. So I waited till today to look at it. Contrary to expectations, I wasn't dizzy when the garment came off . All I know is I was super relieved and the water felt so good and soothing on my back most especially. I love my result but I wish my butt was bigger! My bra rolls are gone. GOOD NEWS and so is the cellulite on my bum. My butt is firmer which is nice and my waist looks snatched.

U look fabulous
Thanks. Will post more pics as I progress.
I realize you don't have much bruising... He really did a great job
Might be because of my skin tone. Maybe because I'm dark skinned it's hiding it because I feel bruised.
How is the sleeping?
Sleeping alot more. Thanks. Getting used to lying on my stomach now
That good!!! I'm glad your ok. My consult is tmrw and I'm planning on depositing to hold my date.
I also wanted to ask what was ur pre op weight?
170 lbs. Good luck with it
How are you doing Hun?
Hey! I'm doin ok. Just getting tired of not being able to sit. Pains have really subsided now and Ive almost run out of meds. Just my lipo areas that are hard and lumpy but I was told they will go down. The compression garment is gettin really uncomfy now but it's a necessity. The price we pay 4 beauty.
I'm glad your ok,by summer you can rock that sexy body, it's all worth it.
