While I'm very pleased w my results so far, I'm still experiencing intense pain on day 9 after bbl. I had lipo of my flanks and Abs which I had to gain weight for. I went to my consultation at 115 pounds and gained 25 in a year to hv the procedure, not sure if my small size is why it's hurting so bad.

I wish I cd add a photo here, not sure how to use this page but it's a gel to relieve pain, bruising and swelling. I also got the pills u dissolve under your tongue, it's the same company and both given to me at my pre op

Hi there! Yeah, I have always recovered from my past four surgeries well. I thought this would also be one of those speedy recoveries...I WAS SOOOO WRONG! I was literally walking like a zombie for the first three days. Ittook me two weeks before I finally felt a bit better, and four before I finally walked without having to make myself walk normal. You are looking good by the way. Congratulations :-D

Still in a lot of pain in my butt...literally Happy with the results but anyone think the smaller you are and the more aggressive the lipo, the more pain? It's day 10 and I still can't get comfortable. Lots of lower back and nerve things going on. Swelling is up and down and I sometimes feel im.walking through cement.

I never experienced pain in my butt, however I did have agressive lipo on stomach, flanks, back and arms and I can tell you the pain was REAL! It's been going on 10 weeks since I had surgery and I still have pain and numbness. I'm going back in September to do a revision on butt because I'm not 100% happy with results and also getting my tummy tuck done at same time so I definitely don't see my body healing for another 3 months. I never realized how painful lipo was going to be. Every now and then you will experience zingers, they are like sharp intense pain that last a few seconds. It's from the lipo affecting your nerves, this is all normal. The swolleness takes forever to go down but eventually you begin to see your body take shape. I can't wait for my next surgery, I know sounds crazy but I just want my body back. No amount of time spent in gym will help my stomach, after having 2 kids and being on yoyo diets, your body goes through alot of damage. Anyway, hope my info was a little helpful, please feel free to ask me any questions! Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you hope yours gets better. I've had 3 kids and I'm 39. I gained all the weight to literally have them put it in my butt and I'm definitely PAYING for it. I'm 130 right now, coming from 114 before surgery. Yes I get that nerve pain just from turning to look at my butt in the mirror, so bad I actually shattered my phone because the quick sharp pain was so intense. I feel a tiny bit better this morning and I basically look at how much easier getting on and out of bed is everyday

I've been a pro fighter n trainer half my life even competed in Fitness shows for years, was always extremely self concious about my bum and even being a gym rat and putting in work would not develop my glutes enough. I was teased for way too long from guys and girls and tired of wearing flannels around my waist and at gym. Was just looking for a lil bubble butt to fit my body and nothing more
