After attempting to write a review at least 20 times.. Here it is. I've been researching a BBL procedure for about a year. I was diagnosed with breast cancer almost 2 years ago and I wanted to do something for myself. I think after having a bi-lateral mastectomy the perception of my body changed. I said to myself, "I need to enhance my bottom!" Lol.. I have read tons of reviews from other women so I decided to write mine. If at least one person reads it, I will be happy. Real Self gives is a great reesource to connect with others and express all aspects of plastic surgery.

Day of treatment
Made it!
My surgery was 6:30 this morning. I was extremely nervous but my Mom told me this would be a walk in the park compared to having bilateral mastectomy. I walked in the facility and the nurse Sandra, asked me basic general questions. I changed after signing the rest of the paperwork. Sandra tucked me in the bed and I waited for Dr. Koenig to mark me up. He came in and did all the necessary markings. He is a very nice Doctor and I felt extremely comfortable with him handling my dream surgery. He left and in came the nurse anesthetist to begin the IV and medicine to knock me out. She had a little hard time finding a vein. The last thing I remember is a white room.
I woke up on my side and the nurses asked me about my pain. I didn't have any. I told them I had to use the bathroom but nothing came out. My Mom came back to the recovery room and they explained to her I couldn't take a shower until Saturday. I was given 2 garments, one was already on. Dr. Koenig came in and told me I did a wonderful job and he was able to inject 1600 cc's, 800 per cheek. He stated it was more than expected so I am a happy camper!
No pain, just sore. I feel bad that I can't pick up my 2 year old daughter but other than that I am ok.

Thank you so much! Trying to. Not sitting is kind of hard, but I'm managing.
