BBL! It's Official, I Paid my Deposit! - Miami, FL

ORIGINAL POST

I've been researching for about a year now and have put my deposit with Dr. Rami G. for a bbl. His before and after pictures look amazing and the reviews for this procedure are wonderful. Nonetheless, I am so NERVOUS. I don't know what to expect, some reviews make it seem like an extremely painful recovery but some people seem like they are good to go 3 days later. I feel as if my heart starts racing by just thinking about it.
The scheduling process has been easy and I haven't had any problems with staff like some people claim they have had. Maybe I got lucky with my coordinator, Liz, or maybe people just expect quicker responses when they are anxious about something, but she has always gotten back to me the same day I call or email her.

Congrats

I don't know why it didn't post the rest of my comment but basically I have only been told to bring a couple of items like a boppy pillow loose fitting clothes and arnica gel. I will let you know as soon as I get more info. Are you using dr. Ghurani as well?

One of the girls who's about a month post op said she's only bought 1 faja, other than the one that give you. Chux pads, maxi pads, prenatal pills, arnica pills and gel, and she got down and board on Amazon after the procedure. Her second faja she got after the procedure as well. She said she bought 2 maxi dresses about 1 size smaller and regrets it cause she was so uncomfortable and board through the first. One the first day anyways. She spent the rest of her 1 week recovery in big baggy tshirts

Congrats sweetheart I refuse to pay that much when a lot of his patients got deals so I will wait until he post deals, he Is a good doctor so u are going to look good girl.
August 26, 2016
I emailed them when the 4100$ deal was going on but that's the "starting" price. I assume it's more because I am getting 12 areas of lipo done "/
August 26, 2016
But I can't wait. I've been holding off way too long lol!

August 26, 2016
OK yes that's why but the doctor not running a that deal anymore so I will just wait because if I do it now it will be way more than 6,000 but I look forward to your results u are going to look good I can't wait I am excited for u lol
August 26, 2016
Thank you I am very excited too! I wish I would've gotten a deal to, I feel like I'm not financially prepared to buy everything last minute and they haven't told me what I need to bring

August 26, 2016

With dr. ortega that's the price hes good but dr. Ghurani is the certified BBL doctor he's more expensive but experienced.

Alvarez is going for $4100 as well and he is good too! That is who I am booked with for now, but been battling in my mind if I should switch to Ghurani. My coordinator Liz, advised me that I will be happy with Dr. Alvarez's work, but if I wanted to switch to just let her know. I am trying to wrap my head around $6k, but his work speaks for the extra $$$
September 4, 2016
Alevaz does good work too honeysugaicetea, his pantients look wonderful I the pics I've seen. I only chose Ghurani cause I seen him have more pictures of bigger girls so I felt like he would maybe be better at the lipo. I initially only contacted them for lipo and then Liz was like maybe you should get some buns while your at it. I stated at my butt for about 2 days and was sold lol

Yes ma'am I was going to go with Ortega but Ghurani is double board certified and I like his work. I just made another deposit and received ppw but I'm not sure if I need to start any vitamins?
August 26, 2016
I believe we do but I haven't been told anything yet. I was advised to lose a couple of lbs and told to get of phentermine and any other supplements and do it the natural way. I hate the natural way lol

August 26, 2016
Hey soontobebootyful what goes that mean by double certified? I'm from Australia and was thinking of going with either Ghurani, Dass or Hazani but I'm unfamiliar with the way doctors in the U.S. Are certified xx

What's your height and weight, if you don't mind answering? I'm 5'4 170 and was told to loose 10-15 lbs but I'm afraid that I won't have enough fat for a BIG booty.. Lol

I'm trying to lose extra weight before the surgery date. But I'm getting nervous that I won't lose anything and the coordinator asked me to lose 5lbs.

Drinks lots of water!! Like 5 bottles a day for rookies and a gallon for pros! Stay off all dairy and you should lose that 5lbs by your consultation day
