ORIGINAL POST

Hello Girls! Well, I’ve been reading so many...

WORTH IT$10,500
Hello Girls! Well, I’ve been reading so many reviews that I feel like I know everybody’s story already lol! Anyways, I’m 20 years old, 5’7 and fluctuate between 145-150 pounds. I have always been teased a bit for my small butt and decided to give the Brazilian butt lift a try because squats and other butt excersises do not work for me at all, neither does weight gain because it just goes directly to my tummy. Surgery is scheduled for June 6th. It leaves me quite some time to recuperate before I go to college again. I am superrrr nervoussss, but knowing I will be in Dr. Schulman’s hands helps calm me down a bit and also knowing the end results will be worth it. Basically, I am looking to improve my overall shape and want a natural looking booty. Nothing too big. Just want to add some volume, get rid of that stubborn belly pouch and back fat which drives me crazy! A more hourglass shape wouldnt hurt either ! lol So, I will be getting lipo on my back, flanks, tummy and trying to go for 850-950 ccs in each butt cheek. Before I decided on Dr. Schulman, I was considering Dr. Markmann, but the $ was already too high and I would’ve had to travel and cover accomodation expenses, which I did not want to do. I started looking into New York doctors since I already live here and realized Dr. Schulman was the one with the best credientials in my opinion when it came to Brazilian butt lifts. During my first consultation, we went over some wish pics, shown below and he told me it was totally possible and was glad I had very realistic expectations. I asked him questions regarding scarring because that was my biggest concern, but he told me the scars were going to be very tiny and would heal quickly. Another concern was the sitting because I was planning to fly maybe mid July and did not want to intefer with results, but he reassured me that sitting with good posture would be key and walking around on the plane would not be a bad idea either. I had a whole bunch of questions and he patiently answered all of them. Then, I talked to Amy who arranges surgery dates and it was settled! It feels like there is so much to do and so little time ! I’ll keep you guys posted :)

You will be fine, had my surgery with him on 5/21 and the only other thing that I just got was a hoppy pillow. Def helped me a lot with sitting and getting back up. Ask me anything...I am now 6 days out :-)

Dr Schulman doesn't suggest getting lymphatic massages but I plan to ask him about it when I see him on Fri. Def feel like it may help with the stiffness
May 28, 2013
Yeah I emailed Rachel asking about lymphatic massages and she told me how he feels about them, but I was still considering them only in the lippo areas possibly after a while after the surgery. Let me know what he tells you ! thanks girl

I'm going to see him Wednesday- you and I had surgery same day I believe. How r u doing?! Im going to ask about the massages as well. Did you get a phase two garment? What about a waist clincher?
May 28, 2013
Yeah, I believe you were scheduled right before me :-). U r def doing much better than me but I am using ur posts as motivation...I still can't lay down w/o my stomach feeling like every muscle is being pulled apart. My follow up is Fri. so will ask about stage 2 garment, I am hoping it doesn't have the butt out and doesn't go to the knees. Good luck on ur follow up Wed. :-)

Thanks girl! My stomach was the worst part to get through for sure so I feel your pain. I laid on ice packs to help too. Also lots of water... Like I've gone through two cases already :) what about a waist clincher? When do you start wearing that and what is it for?
