Had a BBL 9 months ago, my initial thought first week was wow! Second week fat starts to go down and for me by my third week I was like what did I pay for! I was not happy at all! 4th week everything settling, brusing going away, then I had cellulite!! On back of legs and butt more towards lower part and into thighs. I was told it was from fashia bands being broken from aggressive lipo! Here's the truth you loose weight you loose you fat and fast so if you want to keep your new fat you have to maintain it! Sucks but it's truth! So before surgery I've always been 126-127 now I stay at 140 not because I eat like crazy and I do work out 4-5 times a week but I do have a higher calorie intake, it's still don't explain how I stay at 140 no matter how much I work out! I will you my butt had grown since my disappearing dissapointmenting loose of my butt just a few months after my bbl! 4 months post I had a lipo revision on my stomach because it looked lumpy and uneven just horrible! That was a huge mistake! They don't tell you that taking out all the fat leaves loose skin! My stomach is worse than ever! So now August 9 th I'm getting a mini tuck which will be covered by a new Dr at the surgeons office I went to! He even said the first dr took out too much fat in some areas and I'm uneven and he didn't smooth out the fat which leaves the lumps! Yes I had did my homework on the first Dr and he was supposedly top Dr for Scottsdale AZ! So be careful because this is a risky surgery and understand your butt will only allow so much fat there is no determining how much you want it don't work like that! It's what your butt will accept then reject!

I ha don't butt done 3 1/2 mths ago with Dr Hazani who is one of the top here in LA and just like u I'm not happy... I feel like my butt got a little bigger but not noticeably so I feel as if all that pain and $$$ wasn't worth it and I recently lost a few lbs and it keeps getting smaller so I'm definitely not happy and feel you

And the sad thing is you have to basically keep a "thick" weight or say bye to your investment! Sad I stay at 140 now and it's not the weight I wish I was! I have a lot of fat come back and I'm trying my hardest to keep toned! A lot of girls just want the big butt dream but don't do enough research! Guilty as charge! But I would tell girls it's not a permanent solution and lipo has to be done in the stomach along with a tummy tuck, where do they think all that loose skin goes? I'll tell you hangs and it's not cute!

Ok, and I am always a honest person when speaking. I understand your concern but I do believe your butt is not the same as before. Since you are 1 month out, I would suggest finding a butt in garment that will help with compression. Unless you sat on your butt on day 1, the fat is still harvesting and there is light at the end of your tunnel. Of course we all run the risk of losing volume, normal stats say 30-40% loss after month 3, so we are rolling dice with this surgery but I do not think you are completely back to square 1. What we all have to understand is that it takes 3 months up to a year for results, some dolls contour fasters than others, some of us have to remain in the garment for 6 months while some can transition out in month 1 and jump to a waist trainer or cincher. Don't beat yourself up yet, you can still run your race and win....feel better!

My dr told me that no garment helps your butt fluff and after the 3rd week is what we are stuck with. That make sense why would a garment cause your butt to grow? I know a lot of have high hopes but a bbl is not a guarantee and no I didn't sit for 3 weeks or lay at all. The fat is done taking its oxygen and life after 10 days. I understand some of us may see a difference in the lipo areas with shrinking but not the butt growing because the wear of compression I'm not being mean or sarcastic at all it's just don't make sense. Thank you for your kind word of encouragement tho it's really appreciated. I def don't think I'm square one butt I def don't look like I paid close to 8000 or gained a butt by any means! I think bigger shape women have more of a chance because they had more fat to give I just wasn't meant and didn't have enough fat to begin with.

Hi baby doll. I'm sorry honey. You have kept me encouraged and smiling this whole time. You have been a beautiful person to me and just wanted to support you. The process is a lot to endure especially when u don't get your desired results. I understand how u feel too. I'm so sorry baby girl that this was the end result of your experience. Please keep us posted even on small changes of the booty. And even working out:.. Start back lunges and squats and walk On the incline should help build muscle and not Burn fat. I'm here if u need anything.

U don't look horrible girl! U may have lost some volume but I honestly believe u look better than before surgury! Maybe a small revision for a couple little dents if they bother u. I think u look good, u are being too hard on yourself!

Thanks for the kind words! I really hate my results :(
December 19, 2015
I'm sorry, that sucks to feel that way. My biggest fear is I won't be happy after surgury. Sometimes I think I should be happy with what I got but that's easier said than done.

Ya this surgery unfortunately is not a guarantee and some have great results and some end up feeling like me it's a gamble for sure.. I mean I took the risk knowing we are going to loose volume in my case most of it :(

I didn't get go see the so called horrible pics but I don't think u look bad at all from the pics I have seen, but in all honestly I 100% agree with you I had a bbl done in Sept I'm 3 months out and yes about 50% of the fat is gone, I almost feel that my butt is back to normal now ...I agree bbl not worth it

Although I can't see your pics I'm sure it's not that bad! U look great to me. My surgery is 8,000$ too but I wana look like how u look on the pic with the skirt.
User Avatar
December 24, 2015
I only deleted the horrible after because I'm truly embarrassed! Believe me I loved the way I looked in my skirt weeks ago but that's not the case anymore! My butt has shrank so much since that pic and it's why I had posted an update then deleted because I was so sad and depressed about my butt! A bbl is not a guarantee and I had to find that out the hard way! I think an implant is a better way to go since it won't shrink and be a waste of your money!

Aw I'm sry u have to deal with this. I would like to see the pic because I'm sure it's not as bad as u think. I'm so afraid this could happen to me it's like... No guarantees we will keep wats injected :(

That's a great link. This jumped out at me, and I agree:

"If the Plastic surgeon harvested, processed, and injected correctly, the result should be long lasting. The Brazilian butt lift result is highly dependent upon the experience of the Plastic Cosmetic surgeon. Plastic Surgeons who are not using correct purification or injection methods will not obtain long lasting results. Be sure that your Plastic surgeon is experienced in this procedure!"

Surgery was a waste!

So I'm 7 weeks post op today and I'm super sad to say this bbl was a waste of $8,000! I was probably better off with implants I lost about 50% of volume I now have cellulite on my back legs and now going up my butt and my stomach is so lumpy! So now the even more after care is going to cost me another $1500! Now I have to get back lipo revised thanks to my great Dr who didn't do my back and told me yesterday I didn't pay for my back and when you pay for a bbl your only paying for a fat transfer and it's his discretion where he harvest the fat from! Oh and my Dr says my cellulite is still from the fluids and swelling! Really because I think I know what cellulite looks like and dimpling! dr says the lumpiness may need to be revised but I have to wait 6+ months! So now I hate my body and I'm praying the gym will fix some of these issues! I got sick so I haven't started back up yet, can't knock this cough! I'm really hesitant to post pics because I'm so embarrassed!! Basically with a bbl your taking a gamble about any fat staying and lipo is by no means for weigh loss and the weight can easily go back as quick as it was sucked out! So to go thru all this no it's not worth it! I look in the mirror and say what did I pay for stress! Depression! I look like I have a regular ass and not no 8000 ass!! That's for sure! I see girls walking in streets every day with more than I have after paying 8gs for this!!! My advice get an implant at least it won't shrink!!!

You seem like such a sweet person I am sorry and can relate to your feelings. This surgery isn't a garentee I hope once you feel better the gym and a healthy diet can help you get better results. It's still very early hopefully you can experience fluffing like a lot of chicks on here think they get. I know you don't see it but I can tell your shape improved from before keep your hopes high!!

December 18, 2015
Thanks doll and a bbl is def not! I think it's def improved but just don't look worth 8000! And all the bs and other after care expense I went thru :( I'm trying to keep my hopes up then I see all this cellulite and it kills my vibe! There's is no fluff fairy that's a myth for sure :(

I totally understand. I took down my pics because I felt like I don't look like I spent 8000 on my ass. I saw your updated pics and I can see where you have a little cellulite and dents but it's honestly not a disaster. It sucks that you may have to put more money into your booty and this surgery costs more and more for the aftercare :(. But I still think there is hope since you are only 1 month PO. don't give into spending so much money to fix things right away give it time hun! And I know it must've been hard to post your results feeling unhappy but there are still a few of us supportive women who actually give support and don't just post comments because there's pictures of a nice ass or whatever. It's not just about that! Sooo annoying.

You do not have to be ashamed or embarrassed of you pic and results!we are all sisters here! Its not your fault and it might help you get outside opinions. Msg me the pics,i really do want to see. And have you considered a round 2 with a different dr? I would recommend hazani,maybe the cost isnt as much for round 2 than a first bbl?
December 29, 2015
I think even dolls who get good results with a good dr the first time have to get round 2.
December 20, 2015
Sorry to hear about your disappointment. I guess that's why strippers use the hyaluronic acid injections aka booty shots. Lipo the back , waist and abdomen. Then use a waist trainer after they heal. Your experience is so real and there are a lot of disappointed dolls out here. I feel bad that u had to go through all of this and feel like u wasted money and time just to be depressed and have to endure pain. My suggestion to u is ... Try wearing compression stockings to help redistribute the cellulite. I wish u well doll .

Thanks doll! Ya if I would have just done more research I would have saved myself 8000!
December 20, 2015
I understand your frustrations completely! You had expectations going in. You paid a lot of $$$ for something that you did not get. Even though you look good and there is an improvement, that's not what u wanted. I get it totally. However, u have new fat cells in your butt regardless, and less fat cels in your flanks and abdomen. So if u gain weight in the future, u will fill out really nicely while maintaining the flat stomach and trim waist. I had a TT in 2008. I've since gained weight but my stomach is still flat and I didn't have any Lipo! The weight Ive gained is in my hips and butt and love handles now. So I definitely want to do Lipo of my love handles. I don't wanna waste the fat so I figured that I should just do a bbl with Lipo all the way around my waist. But after reading your story I feel some what apprehensive. I don't want unnecessary pain and discomfort. P.S. Although I mentioned booty shots in my earlier post, I wasn't implying that u should have tried it. It looks good and it lasts but we don't know the health risks associated with it in the long run. Your fat may reabsorb but at least it won't make u sick.

December 21, 2015
Thanks doll no worries I would never do them shots too many horror stories. The thing is I've been maintaining my post op weight of 135 and have lost any except my butt. Makes no sense I still am not eating healthy like I use to because I keep thinking my butt will come back with more fatty foods.... Still waiting!!

Did you lose weight after surgery? Do you think that may be why you're loosing volume?
User Avatar
December 25, 2015
Nope and I'm still eating a lot and junk food because I thought it would grow but it hasn't! I'm heavier now than before this surgery I guess it's from fluid not sure but it sucks either way!
