Hello ladies.
Well where do I start?? my butt has gone flat from the middle part! it's no longer nice and round and it's my own fault! Ive been crying a lot and very, very depressed since sunday morning! Here's what happened. On Saturday june 11, (late night) I drove with out a boppy pillow for about good 40 min max then in the am hrs of june 12, drove back home I would say a good 30 min with the boppy pillow.. I noticed when I woke up at around 12 noon on Sunday that my butt look flat and even my bf told me your ass looks different like it's flat!! omg I almost fainted when I saw it! it no longer was nice and round. I tried on some jeans I had bought Saturday morning and oh my fucken gosh I couldn't believe it!! I almost fainted and I cried and cried like a baby.. I sabotage my results for being stupid ... It's Monday and it still looks flat from the middle part. Has anyone experience this? pls help me. Please tell me this is temporary :( I spoke to hannia this morning and she told me to email some picutres.. I have not heard back from dr. p so im anxiously waiting:( im praying it gets full like it was before bc I would hate to do a round 2 :(

It's too early to tell honestly. Mine got bigger over time, it got fuller and filled out. In the beginning it's so tight and hard and then it fluffs out and becomes softer. During my 3 and 6 month marks I feel it got bigger. I'm 9 months post op and I feel it's changed quite a few times. Even now I'm going through another phase. Continue wearing your compression garment and I'm sure you'll see it change throughout the next few months
July 14, 2015
hey chica.. but the middle part got flat!! it's not full like before and that worries me.. I know that I had to be the one that cause it.. it's not something that happened on its own.. That is what bothers me. It could've been prevented.. Thank you for giving me hope I really pray it rounds out even after all this.. I appreciate your support and info.

Yeah it's weird bc at first it can have a bit of a flat effect but it's bc it hasn't healed yet and fluffed out. Honestly, there's no way you can ruin the results for driving for that short amount of time. I've heard of other girls who went back to work and sat down for longer. Honestly, save yourself some sanity and don't pay too attention to the shape you have now bc it will look very different in 2-3 months. One thing a lot of people don't tell you is how obsessed you become and check it everyday. One day you'll love, the next you'll be disappointed and other times satisfied. You will drive yourself nuts the next few months but you'll see just how often it will change. I can't tell you how many times I've said "it's too small, it's too big, it's perfect". Your opinion will change from one day to the next.

I'm so sorry you are feeling like that but I completlty agree with Curvy30 I literally measure my butt every day! You do get to be a little obsessed and I know i have a love hate relationship with it. Regardless I am sure you look amazing still! But I don't think one drive could damage it so quickly I have driven that distance if not more and even went to the club ovwr the weekend where I was in a taxi with no pillow and I haven't seen much change. Have you been wearing your garment? Maybe its swelling that has gone down? Please cheer up and give it a little time and it for some reason you need a revision it will be ok just don't blame yourself!!!!

July 15, 2015
@curvy30 Girl thank you so much for your words of encouragement.. My dr said Im still very swollen and not to worry too much and to start wearing a butt out garmet.. I see my butt today and it looks really nice.. Maybe the lil flatness was there and I never noticed it until sunday.. I'm still measuring 47 1/2 strong.... I think it got a bit rounder today too :) Thanks again I appreciate your support and comments
July 15, 2015
@lisamarie.. Girl I feel a lot better today thanks so much for your comments and knowing that theres other girls that driven too puts my mind on ease.. and your right driving that lil cant possibly do that much damage!! omg thank lord I just walk pass a mirror and dayum my butt looks good!! lol....Thanks again chica...
July 15, 2015
@lpg47 yes girl just reading these comments lifter me up 100!! thanks ladies
July 15, 2015
Yeah the garment with cheeks out is best. It's funny bc after all this talk I looked at photos from right after my surgery and up to a month after and looks so different. It pops out more now and comes out more on the sides too. Like I said, it's normal to go through this and your opinion of your behind will constantly change. It's driving me nuts and I hope I can stop this obsession soon lol

July 15, 2015
47.5!! Dayummm lol yea that's pretty nice size butt lol but I'm glad you are feeling better keep up the optimism! I keep reminding myself that it's an improvement to what I had before!
July 15, 2015
@curvy30 girl I would love to see some of your pics!! can you share some with me thru email?? girl it's a lil obsessive :( gotta stop too!! looking forward to the next months.. I want this faja gone lol..

girl that's me everyday lol I'm glad to hear I'm not the only crazy obsessed person

July 17, 2015
Me 3 lol! Have either of you lost weight sense the procedure? Some how I'm down like 8 pounds I guess from following dr ps diet but I'm trying to maintain my weight. Im scared to gain back though because I feel like it's all going to go to my arms and face...I think it's why my butt has gone down about half an inch because I'm not swollen anywhere except for a little in my stomach
July 18, 2015
Isn't it so annoying? I thought 9 months later I wouldn't still be obsessed but I am. There was a short period of time where it remained looking the same and I didn't obsess and forced myself to stop taking pics and stop looking at it a million times a day. Hmmm I did lose after but then months later I gained and a lot of it was in my arms but that's always been a problem for me. I had to work out to lose it.
July 18, 2015
Omg this morning it looked big but now it looks small. My ass is driving me crazy. lol
July 18, 2015
@lisamarie13 nope I don't even want to weigh myself im freaking big lmao.. I have not followed the diet dr p said :( I did not wana loose any fat so Ive been eating away lmao.. that's exactly my problem if I gain weight it goes to my face n arms ugh... I gotta stop n start eating healthy like before...
July 18, 2015
@curvy30 what did you do to loose the arm fatness?? pls share cus that's my problem too :(
July 20, 2015
@lowens14-I have the same issue and it's driving me nuts. My husband thinks I'm nuts but finally last night I was able to prove it. I had come home from work and asked him if it looked smaller and he just dismissed me thinking I'm being crazy. Later on in the evening I noticed it looked bigger and showed him. He was surprised and agreed that it did. The weird part is that it's mostly just my left cheek I see the difference from day to day.
July 20, 2015
@latinamommy-I work out my arms with 5 pound weights. I try to do about 4x a week for 20-30 mins of arm workouts
July 20, 2015
@curvy30 I can't talk about my butt to my husband anymore. He's over it. lol when did you get your bbl?
July 20, 2015
@curvy30 thanks girl I gots to get on them exercises for my arms.. cus I don't like them one bit :(
July 21, 2015
@lowens14-I had mine done 9 months ago. You?...yeah, my husband can't take it anymore either. He tells me it looks great and to stop bothering him everyday to ask if it looks smaller lol
July 21, 2015
Lol you sound like me. It's going to be one month tomorrow. Does it get bigger? I'm hoping it does.

July 14, 2015
Hey hun! I'm sorry to hear this! maybe a butt lifting garment with the butt cut out might help with the overall shape? Just wear it for a month or so? i was planning on doing this anyway... Just a suggestion :)
July 15, 2015
hey girl that is exactly what dr p recommended I wear!!! funny huh.. he says it will help and that i'm still very swollen n not to worry!! :) I feel so much better today thanks again chica..

July 15, 2015
of course you know you RS sissys are here for support! I hope you are feeling better! You made it to the other side and there is much to be thankful for girl! abrazos!
July 15, 2015
Omg that sucks :( im so sorry to hear that. that happened to my friend but on the sides because she was sleeping on her sides with out support its been almost a year and unfortunately even when she gains wait it all goes to the middle of her butt the sides are still flat i hope u hear back soon from ur Dr and find a solution soon.
July 15, 2015
ohh hell no!! what a freaking bummer!! that's what im scared of :( Ive been sleeping on my back since day one and after that drive I notice the flatness in the middle and girl it was the worst day of my life.. I pray n pray it gets nice and round like most of you ladies here :)
July 19, 2015
Thats how i felt about my first lipo I understand that feeling and it sucks. Remember theres a solution to every problem :) im sure there is an improvement on ur body overall focus on the positive. when I would feel bad about my first lipo I would just keep my focus on my booty lol keep us posted
July 20, 2015
girl you look amazing!! and thanks for the support.. I appreciate it a lot.. and I guess round two will have to be for me If I want fuller rounder butt :) ughhhh
July 15, 2015
I'm sure it will change in a few weeks and won't be an issue. Later down the line when you are physically able, you can also do squats and other butt exercises and that might help if there is still an issue.

you look good. Did you leave the day after surgery? Did you get picked up at the border? I am going in September and trying to decide if I should drive and wether I should get picked up at the border.
July 8, 2015
Thank you.. I did leave the next day.. My boyfriend picked me up at 11 at dr pantojas office.. I also believe they can have someone drive you to the border for an extra charge.. Ask Hannia, Dr ps receptionist.. She's really helpful. Best of wishes fory your upcoming surgery.

July 9, 2015
Thank you. Do you think it's the same if I drove as if someone picked me up? Would it be harder/longer if I drove thru myself? If it's going to be the same then I would rather save the money and just drive myself. Did you get a med pass on the way back? Happy healing hun
July 9, 2015
I went on my own a day before my surgery on Amtrak from los angeles to san diego, once I arrived at San Diego I crossed the border and checked in to Rio Hotel for one night. The day after surgery my bf picked me up and we got a complimentary med pass. After that it's only 5 dollars to get one. You get the med pass in same bldg as Pantoja(where you do your bloodwork) It's so worth it!!! Thank you. I'm feeling so much better.. You're in good hands with Dr. Pantoja!! He's the best.. Let me know if you have any other questions.. Or send me your nbr in the inbox if you want :)

July 9, 2015
You look great, !! Thanks for the update!
