I can't believe Dr. Hegg has passed. He was a great surgeon, it doesn't seem real. I had 1 more post op appointment but luckily for me I am healing nicely. It seems so superficial to worry how my final results will turn out when he has lost his life. prayers for his loved ones. I will probably delete my account soon because my main reason for creating it was to help girls looking for a surgeon in the Bay Area, or to talk to other Dr. hegg patients. I also feel bad for the ladies who had upcoming surgery dates with him, it must be hard to start the journey all over again. This is a reminder of how precious life is, as much as we persue beauty, we need to cherish life much more.

I know, it really hits home over here too! I actually had two consults with Dr.Hegg and he was just a really great man, I even referred a couple people to him for surgeries. ;(

I am too a patient of Dr. Hegg and just found out the news about his death. I'm shocked and saddened to hear of the way he passed. He was an amazing surgeon and a very sweet soul. Rip Dr. Hegg.

Had my 6 week post op appointment. The doctor said I'm healing really well, he said my stomach will still go down a bit once the scar tissue heals. He hopes my butt will stay its current size but everyone heals a little different. He said that although the fat takes within a few weeks its still really lol able, so the longer you stay off the better. I still am sleeping on my stomach and try to sit only on my thighs. Again I'm really happy I went through with this. My advice is to have realistic expectations, but if you want to do it go for it! Thank you to all the girls who share their story on real self, it really helped me make my decision! I'm putting up a few more pics too:)

At the 6 weeks post op tomorrow and I am very happy! Love my new body and was worth every penny. My results might not be as drastic as some girls but it is what I wanted, an improvement! Finally getting around to putting up pics, and to be honest I don't think the pictures do me justice lol! I can still nit pick a little, kinda wish I lipoed my thighs and wish my waist was a little smaller but over all I am very happy! Hope my butt doesn't go down any more.! Sorry my before pics are a little blurry, I took a picture of the screen of my camera with my phone lol
