HI. EVERY DOCTOR HAS SOME GOOD SOME BAD & IT REALLY DEPENDS ON SEVERAL FACTORS LIKE SKILL OF DOCTOR, FAT RETRIEVAL AND PREPPING PROCESS, YOUR BODY, YOUR HEALTH... FIND SOMEBODY WHO HAS LOTS OF GREAT REVIEWS. HERE ON RS YOU CAN ASK DOCS FOR THEIR OPINIONS AND ASK THE BBL VETS ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE. HERE YOU GET THE REAL DEAL. HOW FAR OUT IS YOUR FRIEND FROM HAVING THE SURGERY?

No. I am pretty sure I will go with Duran but having a difficult time getting the hubby to agree to doing it right now. He already picked out a booty just waiting for the funds and mood to be good. Not worth losing my relationship been together too long for that. She's still early, I would look at her results at the 6 month mark..

6 months that's too long I don't wanna wait that long I been wanting this for 4 years now I'm getting it done if I push it back then I may never get it done plus this will be my first step im also getting my breast and and maybe tummy tuck a few moths later the plan is to lose a few pounds after the BBL and work on training my body frame and then go back to get my breast lift and hopefully my stomach is not too bad if I don't like the outcome then tummy tuck

Also I been with my BF for 8 years off and on and he didn't like the idea either however I told him this is something I'm doing for me not for u or anyone else he had no choice but to support me or walk away and plus after talking about it so much he now is excited as well we do everything together he was the one to tell me about this website. I say do it because if u don't then you may regret your decision besides he may be scared to lose you after u get your new body he would admit it but that maybe the reason why if he love you then he won't leave

OMG the reviews are really bad at strax and on Dr. Dean like wtf I'm two days away and I been waiting 2 years to do this I finally got a whole month off work and I brought everything I need and my surgery date is two day away my best friend girlfriend just went to get hers BBL done and he did a good job on her however she did complain about her butt going down after 3 weeks and she is mad that it's not bigger but I like how her butt looks she is really short so I don't think she needs a big butt ,she wanted to look like K Michelle lol and it's didn't come out that big however it look great so I said that I wanna go to him but man these reviews are terrible and I emailed the sales lady Tammy and told her to switch doctors and I'm going up there early tomorrow morning to see if it's possible I can see another doctor because this is crazy

I mean I feel like every doctor has bad reviews. If Dr Dean made you feel comfortable and you believe in him then DO IT! but if you aren't are than don't bc this us your investment. I went with Salama and had a friend who didn't like her results and that lady that got burned reached out to me too. I still chose him bc I believed in his craft. Do wats best for YOU girl :-)

I agree. Every case is different. Look at lots of reviews and ask for some patient referrals. See a book on what he performed on women similar to you.
June 21, 2015
I will be having my procedure same day as you are with Dr Dean.
I met him and felt comfortable with him so going with how I feel.
Everyone is different so definitely will have different reviews .
It also depends on what you started out with and your expectations.
Put the good Lord at the forefront.

Good morning and I am praying that your procedure will be smooth and effortless.
I will touch base with you to exchange notes on how it went.lol

Hey Doll! You will be fine. If you read any reviews you would know the swelling does go down in everyone. Sometimes a second round is needed if you want more. A safe estimate of when your results settle is 6 months. Maybe their expectations are because of misinformation. Should ask your doc what you can realistically expect to look like once everything settles but he might not know until after the surgery. Theres so many variables like your skin condition, fat processing, and your aftercare - what YOU do to optimize your results. Good luck with your sx babe. Think positive. Keep us posted.
