So, I have done all the extreme dieting and working out that I want to do for the moment. I've been wanting lipo & the BBL for a couple of years but I figured I'd try some discipline to get my ideal results first by exercising/dieting, it worked and didn't work so now I am finally financial and emotionally ready for the NEW ME. I am a tad nervous but focused so I know I can do this and will be happy at the end. I'm 5'11", 191 pounds, I would like a more defined waist , defined butt and defined hips. I live in the Atlanta area and will have my surgery done by a board-certified medical leading surgeon. Can't wait to share my journey with you all, feel free to start chatting - I love comments and feedback.

Thank you jadefaith; I just can't get the last weight off and need some contouring and a lil butt lift. I'm praying for a miracle.

Hey doll, I am also in the Atl area and was wondering who you have decided on to do your work. I am excited to see your body after because you have a great body already. Good luck to you on your journey.

Hey...I chose Dr. Louis Cole of the Atlanta LiposuctionSpeciality Clinic. Kim Zolziac of RHOA also uses him, in which I didn't know until I began doing more research. His office staff are really cool, I won't meet him until closer to my pre-op appt but my consultation went well and I was impressed. This is my first surgery so I'm hoping for the best...who have you looked into?
July 11, 2015
I looked into Dr. Stephenson, here in Snellville and Dr. Jimerson in Atl. But, more than likely I am going with Dr. Omulepu in Miami. I will definitely be following because I am still not fully decided and won't be having procedure until early 2016. Best of luck.

I know, you may be short but you look great also. Your contouring is coming along beautifully. I looked at your pics, the one with the shorts pulled down and your shape is forming nicely. There are pro's and con's with height, can never find pants long enough, with you, you can hem your jeans/pants, lol. Thank you for the encouragement though, keeping my fingers crossed.

Lol, I wish I could wear shorts and skirts all the time, lol - and no pants. I'm hoping this BBL and lipo will give me the confidence needed to wear a bathing suit (when I do have the option to wear one).

So I located a few lovely shaped women and I plan to discuss more with my surgeon, my interest in the way I would like to contour my body. Surgery still a little ways away but the hype is here when thinking about how I plan to look:)

I am in the same boat you just got out of! I would like to do the exact same thing you just did with the butt lift and tummy. I also would like to get a breast lift and have my arms worked on and have some back fat and my double chin ...well the extra fat around my face gone. I live in Ohio, I am worried about not having the type of experienced doctors here. I also am worried about the cost from travel, procedure, aftercare,& meds.

Just create a budget (if traveling), staying in a RH versus staying on your own (but with a caregiver/RN, rented for a couple days). Flights are often inexpensive with Southwest Airlines. The aftercare, just ensure you have massages done, as many as possible while out of state and resume once you are back, you can wear the same faja from sx and have altered every 3-4 weeks or in Miami, there is a faja store basically on every corner ($60-$80). Let me know if you need help creating a budget.
August 22, 2018
Thank you for your reply. Gurrrrrl.... YOU look MARVELOUS! I've been doing a little research on having the same kind of work you had. I have asthma and my husband keps telling me I can't have the surgery because of that.I am reading different reviews. Learning the lingo and reading which doctors are close to my area and prices of course. I've been told the DR has some good doctors and not as expensive like stateside.BUT you get what you pay for... and that's what scares me!
User Avatar
August 22, 2018
Your hubby is being over protective and that is a great thing, however, being asthmatic, you can most certainly have surgery HOWEVER, once this is disclosed and should be to your surgeon, he/she will want you to get cleared from your PCP and if over 40, an EKG; all which are good because you want to know you are healthy going into surgery. Now regarding US and outside, there are some fantastic surgeons in DR/Columbia/Mexico BUT what deterred me is the fact, if something were to have happened to me, how fast could my family get emergency passports to get to my side? That alone made me say, naw, I will stay stateside. The fee for outside the US still adds up, flights, meds, labs, massages, caregivers, hotel/Airbnb, faja's, blood transfusions all which are paid outside of the surgery = Kim, stay your ass here at home and have it for the same cost but find a great/skilled surgeon. LOL!

Hi Tawanna4372 it's good to see you still here giving encouragement. Please give us an update. Was it all worth the money? Any weight gain?
August 23, 2018
Thank you so much for your wisdom on this. I am 45 and would like to get my procedure before I turn 47. Everyone keeps telling me to go to the gym! But.... I now I can't do it all in the gym. I keep telling my husband that once I get the procedure and heal I will absolutely go to work out to keep up what I invested in. I really needed to read your journey. I've been in this group for a year and NOBODY has ever written in such a way that has given me comfort to feel I could move forward with my decision to actually do this. I am going to start my "MY TURN TO DO ME" fund! I've been jotting down certain words I did not understand to research them and I am comparing prices. I have a personal question for you and I pray I don't offend you by asking. Why did you go out of your state for the surgery? Correct me if I am wrong... but isn't there surgeons like Dr. Curves & others in the A that specialize in what you got? What was the reason to choose the doctor Hasan? I am asking to help me with my comparison. Again, thank you for sharing your journey and answering my questions as nicely as you have.

Hey sis and yes, I will update, how are you? I haven't been displeased yet so I still hope to live up to the expectations.. Worth the money thus far, yes. Current stage of gaining weight, its coming on lightly. I am beginning Apetamin and Ensure soon, so both of these together will give me that 6-8 pound increase that I need. Thank you for still being here.

So am I going to be on here everyday reading, lol. I'm 130 days away from my surgery and already I'm ordering items to aid in my recovery. I've posted pics of me on my first review but wanted to get some opinions of whether or not I will have enough fat being removed from my abs and hips to give me a more projected butt... Any thoughts ladies?

Hi Tawana, I had a chance to review your pictures. I have to say you have a great base to start with, I believe you should get lipo to your whole torso, 360 all the way around, the abdomen completely, your back completely, and your flanks, that will make your waist very tiny and your booty pop more. I think your arms are just fine, no need for lipo there. For the wish pics you posted, I believe that the fat should be placed in your hips and upper lower part of your booty, to give full projection , upper shelf, lower shelf crease, and of course contour your hips. you should have the maximum amount of fat transferred, trust me if I could have had all the fat I had transferred in the dirt bbl and not had two bbls I would have. If I were you, I would just go for the full body lipo, especially the torso, and if needed some in the legs. I had my legs, and, flanks, back, abdomen, and even arms done, and in super happy with all of my body lipo contouring. I wouldn't have done it any differently. As far as prepping for surgery, I would continue weight training to keep the muscles underneath hard, especially in the glutes, by focusing on your glutes you will have maximal results for your bbl. I hope this helps you! If you need any more advice let me know! Good luck darling! I'm routing for you to get the best results possible!

Aww, thank you - your advice has been saved and I will definitely add this to my list to discuss with my surgeon on my 10/22 consult. He is definitely doing the upper and lower abdomen and my hips for sure, that is what I have paid for in addition to the BBL. I'm following you girl and I love your body and the chair that you have, lol. I'm sur I will have more questions, you offer great advice and are very information and thorough. Thank you and again, a speedy recovery.

I guess I should have posed my question here for you, lol. Which faja do you recommend I look into? the Vedette 929 or 340? Thank you again so much.
User Avatar
July 15, 2015
I would go with the vedette 929... Order that one, one size up from your usual size. At the time I was a small and I ordered the medium .. It fit me pretty snug.

I also bought a few garments from Valentina , they are cheap and do the job, this last bbl I had to get a large/xl but it worked better than any other garment I had tried.
