Dr. Afifi does not inject fat into the hips. She does lateral hip injections. Its suppose to be an illusion of hips. But i think hips just make the look complete. It wont make you wide just curvy and sexy.

After you wake up from the anesthesia they keep you for an hour or two in recovery. I was extremely dizzy after i got up and was wheel chaired to my car. But yes you can walk

they had to reschedule me regarding my asthma i was wheezing very bad that they could not oporate on me, they said its dangerous cz my air way in my lungs were very tighten they might shut down completely due to the general anesthesia and end up in hospital for weeks for lungs problem that may cause brain damage from not receiving enough oxygen so please for those who have asthma be very carefull about that its very serious. i went to my doctor in kaiser and he put me on medication for 2 weeks to open the air way on my lungs then after they could do the surgery. so i postponed it for May the 23 rd that when my kids are off school so i dont have to worry about transportation as well. im soooo sad about what i went thru getting ready for it and planning, taking my pre op medication all went for a waste but at the end i think im lucky to have another doctor that comes with doctor afifi to surgery her job is to check every single issue you have and discuss it with you not many doctor will do that. She saved my life it could i've been a disaster not to be able to wake up after anesthesia and end up in coma thanks god for saving my life and get back home safe for my kids. Im taking medication now it feels much better and i think i will be ready for it on may 23. by the way i don't have asthma it s just on the spring time that my allergie get so bad that made my asthma kick in . please make sure to disclose every single issue about your health to your doctor prior to your surgery it will benefit you at the end. doctor told me many patient have some even minor issue they may think its nothing but they don't know that even minor think it will be very danger when your put to sleep for long time. I hope i will be ok next time and thank god for saving my life again and be able to see my family again.
