Hi! I'm from New York 5'2 118lbs. I have a small flat butt. During the consultation Dr. Schullman told me I have a long torso therefore my butt looks like it sets low. He asked me what I wanted and I told him I didnt want nothing drastic I just wanted to be equally proportioned. I'm a D cup on my chest and I wanted to have a fuller & perkier butt to even out & stop the competition between top & bottom LOL. He totally understood what I meant and said that he could take fat from my flanks, inner & outter thighs & my back (by my braw strap). He says the scars will be minimal, will fade in time but he will make sure they are as discrete as possible. Dr Schullman also said to expect discomfort but no drain will be needed since I dont need to extract fat from my stomach area. He made me feel very comfortable & said it wont be a problem to give me the look I want a perkier fuller butt. I was so satisfied with his advice & with his credentials (being that he's the BUTT doctor of NY- he performs the most BBLs in NYC). His gallery, website, reviews & staff are reputable & professional. So my date is set and I'll be finally doing my BBL next month July 15th. Will post pics soon to support the existing BBL community & those who are contemplating on doing it. Thank you to all the BBL ladies for the great reviews.

Hey girl your surgery date is right around the corner that's so exciting! I just had my BBL consult yesterday with Dr. S. I don't have a date yet though because I'm still so nervous about the idea of surgery :/ I will definitely be following your journey. Good luck!

It's surreal how my surgery is in almost 2 weeks! Hope you got feedback during your consultation. If you feel like you forgot to ask something feel free to email the doctor's staff. They are very good at responding emails on Dr. S' behalf. I was nervous when I first scheduled my surgery but I've been concentrating on how amazing the end result will be. Staying positive has calmed my nerves :) Dr. S is the booty doctor of NY, so I'm confident everything will go well. Thank you for the good wishes. I'm about to post all the things Dr. S said to purchase for pre-op & post-op care.

I am excited for next week! A bit nervous but it's normal. I will def post pics! During consultation - word of advice: dont be shy! Dr. Schulman and his staff are very professional. So make sure you take the robe off & show him your bod & expectations. (FYI - Underwear stays on) LOL. I was a bit nervous & wasn't sure what to do, so thats why I'm sharing.

Happy with the results!! Dr. Schulman's staff is wonderful. As soon as I got to the suite the burse had me & my fiance fill iut paperwork. The nurse was very attentive & friendly. I was so nervous that after she set me up with IV I felt like I was going to faint but she knew exactly what to do & in a couple of minutes I was feeling much much better. The Doctor Anesthesiologist was so funny & made me feel so comfortable & safe. He came into the office and told me what to expect. I had gotten general anesthesia before so I felt comfortable with the idea. Dr. Schulman came in next to take pictures of me & mark me up. Explained to me how I was going to look which my fiancé & I were very pleased. Then shortly after went into the operating suite where they had nice classical music & a great vibe. Doctor Schulman passed by the recovery room to tell me everything went well. Afterwards the nurse gave me warm blankets & they made me feel so comfortable. Next thing I know I was done in the recovery room. The nurse went over my post opt treatment with my Fiancé and I and then she walked me out to the car. By the time I got home I needed the pain killers. I ate soup and crackers before taking my medication, drank lots of liquids to flush out my system, and walked around my apartment to keep my circulation going. The pain is not so bad it very bearable. Will post more updates later.
