I'm 28 years old, had one child, 5'3 weigh 169 the day of surgery. I had lipo to the chin, upper and lower abdomen, flanks, waist, posterior bra (annoying fat under armpit that always seems to spill out of bras), pubic area, and I believe it's called coucket which is the fat on top your butt area. I went with Dr Sasaan Alavi in San Diego. Oh and he also transfered the fat into my buttocks.

You go girl!!!congratulations you look really good so in the beginning I can see that on the back you still have a lot of fat so did you ask your size that away because in your ending pics your butt looks a lot bigger

Thank you. Yes I told my doctor specifically that I don't want a huge butt, I don't want Kim K's butt, I just want a nice cute looking butt. Nice projection. And I absolutely love the results. Not too big, not too small, just right for me.

I couldn't eat or drink 8 hrs prior to surgery. Ok, so surgery day, my surgery was at 10 A.M Thursday, April 24th. All I remember was Dr Alavi marked up the areas he's going to lipo, Carol (Anesthesiologist) put me to sleep and my husband picked me up and walked me to the bed in our hotel room after. I was laying on my stomach and I was pretty much out the rest of the day. I remember being extremely nauseated and dizzy. It was around 10.45 p.m by the time I was finally up and starving to death. I ate everything I could get my hands on, my husband thought it was hilarious. Pain from scale 1-10 was 13!!! I was in a lot of pain, my back was extremely stiff.
Oh I have a few tips that I found very helpful, buy a throw away shower curtain(got mine from target, it was only $2.50). Lay it on your bed, so that your sheets won't be ruin because you'll have some drainage from the lipo. I drained quite a lot, but only the first day. Also step stool is very helpful to get you on the bed. Take your Arnica pills to help with the bruising, for me I hardly had any bruising. Take your Antibiotics and pain killers. Don't forget the boppy pillow under your thigh for sitting , and a pillow behind your back (I have those two everywhere I go). I lay on my stomach most of the time, but when I need to sit I always have those two handy. Ladies, the key is to put all the pressure on your thighs when you're sitting down and not let your butt cheeks touch the seat.

Dr. A did an amazing job sculpting your body!! Looks great! I see him in 2 weeks for upper/lower abs and waist and I'm so excited!! I hope to have some amazing pics to share. We're you comfortable in the garments post op?
January 11, 2015
Yes I was. I feel so much better wearing it, I feel like it keeps everything in place. I feel naked without it.

Post op 2nd Day April 25th

Today is going to be your worst day, for me I have a post op appointment with Dr. Alavi at 12.15 p.m. I was pretty much up every 3-4 hrs to go pee the night before. So was still extremely stiff and a lot of pain today. The ride to Dr. Alavi's office was painful, eventhough it was literally across the street from the hotel. So they removed all the pads for the drain when I got there. Dr. Alavi gave me another girdle wrap, but this one is just for the stomach on top of the garment that I'm already wearing. He gave me some aftercare instructions to do before I left, he told me that I can take the garment off the next day and wash it, I can also take a shower. Sorry I didn't take any pictures after the surgery, that was the last thing on my mind because I was in a lot of pain.
