Brazilian butt lift

WORTH IT$6,700
I think 80% of the fat cells in my butt may have died. I may have to go in for a second add.

Why do you think so? It's so early. You need more time to tell.

Okay, don't want to get too personal, but if you can't sit down, how do you go to the bathroom? I am thinking of BBL, but this has me curious.....

How do you go to the bathroom?. Did you have to lose weight?

Hi girl , so I had my bbl and 12 sections of lipo done 13 days ago by doctor Alvi .. He's is wonderful but I am In tears today because I feel my butt is completly flat and is where I begain with in the beginning and I don't feel smaller from the lipo :( I know it's early but can you please tell me if you saw results as time went on and is your butt round and filled out did you need a revision and if so how much? I am so confused by this recovery :( does the fat fall into place ? Please get back to me when you can . Any advice will help . Thank you.

hi hmary8672,could you let us know how you feel about Dr Alavis bbl now that’s it’s been sometime?

Hi there! I know it has been quite some time for you since you posted this but I am feeling the very same thing and I just had mine done 12 days ago as well!! All the fat is up top and it’s flat and the bottom and middle… What ended up happening for you? Hoping to hear back from you since I know it has been a long time!

Hi Jenny,
I was also wondering about this, since it’s been some time can you please provide me with an update? Does the fat actually drop down and settle into place or does it remain high and flat?

Jenny - did you end up with the desired results? I had lip 360 and BBL almost 4 months ago and mine is flat in the center and bottom and all the fat is at the top and I’m trying to trust the process but I’m disappointed this far.

I'm curious of total fat and inch reduction and cost?
February 10, 2015
10 inches off my waist. It keeps decreasing now that I see the swelling going down some. Cost: 1) $6,700. 2) Extremely, EXTREMELY painful. 3) You're not allowed to sit down for almost a month. 4) You will stink for a little bit. 5) You can't bend over for a while.

Wow and thank you for sharing your journey

Pre op day. February 4, 2015.

So I'm all done. Let me be frank ladies. This is the MOST excruciatingly painful thing you will ever have done, aside from giving birth. I cried once the Norco wore off.

I agree. I had lipo 10 days ago and out was allot more painful that I had anticipated. I'm feeling better today.....I hope you have a speedy recovery and those pains pills work for you...It gets better.....I promise. Keep your head up! :-)

Thank you so much!

Would you say that your BBL, hurt more than the lipo or both are equally ?
February 9, 2015
More. You can not sit down for weeks. Nor can you lay on your back.
