Finally getting my removal and reconstruction ! I’m so nervous but excited

I have the same story as everybody else, about 6 years ago I got my injections. I got injected 3xs 500ccs at a time because I wanted a bigger butt. About a year ago I noticed it started being uncomfortable when I sat down for long periods of time, with minor pains in my butt when sitting. I then noticed that I started getting these hard lumps, you couldn’t see or feel it immediately upon touching my butt but if you pushed further in you could feel the small lumps.About 6 months ago I noticed that the lumps had migrated to my hips giving my hips a larger appearance (which I didn’t mind) but I knew that wasn’t good. I’ve been researching this procedure for quite some time now so I knew what the pains and lumps were. I settled my top surgeons down between Dr. Katzen, Dr. Carlos Gomez and Dr. Torres.I wanted Katzen first so I set up a virtual consultation I sent him my pictures and I had a conversation with him over the phone I was confident in choosing him (still highly recommend him) but I didn’t like the fact that I would have to get a removal and then have to wait to get the reconstruction I wanted them at the same time so I have chosen Dr. Carlos Gomez. I’ve sent my $1000 deposit and am waiting to confirm my surgery date which I would like to be June 1st.While this corona pandemic is going on flight prices are low which helps saving money. I have a small frame so I’m taking apetamin to help gain weight. I’m so nervous but excited to finally get this poison out!

My official surgery date with Dr. Gomez will be June 15 ! I was instructed that I have to arrive two days prior to surgery and they suggest I stay 19 days after. My plan is to stay in a recovery house for the first two or three days then my husband and I will be staying in an Airbnb, the prices are very low less than $50 a night. I have an appointment to get my MRI on May 7th, I know that I got injected in my muscle so I am nervous on how much they will have to remove. I’ve gained about 6 pounds so far So hopefully by the time my surgery date comes I would have enough fat to get the look I want for reconstruction. If anybody has any tips or any advice on what to expect feel free to message me !

My original surgery date was supposed to be June 15 but it got pushed back to the second week of September because of covid. It’s still uncomfortable when I’m sitting for a long period of time and I’m starting to notice the tingling in my legs now, I’m so ready to get this surgery over with
