Your results are fabulous. The TT and BBL came out great. Did you end up using the cozy bump and would you recommend it?
Thank you! I thought the cozy bump was quite uncomfortable! I ended up purchasing a snake pregnancy pillow and sleeping in one of those! At 2 weeks you can sleep on your belly so I’ve been sleeping on my belly too and it feels great.
Thank you, I will buy the pregnancy pillow you suggested. I’m excited by your results. I am scheduled for a breast lift and BBL with him in September
Snatched, beautiful curves! <3 your results look fabulous!

4 weeks Post Op

4 weeks update! I’ve been waiting for this one month mark for so long! I’m about 90% back to myself. It’s been a long journey but overall I’m very happy with my results! I think I would have liked more projection but I’m happy regardless! What ya think???

You look GREAT!
Thank you!!! Good luck on your upcoming surgery. Is it with Salama?
No, my PS is Dr. Rosenberg (Balto Metro Area). Dr. Rosenberg is the 4th PS I've consulted with and felt most comfortable with. The others were good but there was something with each of the prior three that just was not giving me a full comfort level. One of the three was just waaaay to expensive for the same procedures I'm having done with Dr. Rosenberg!
Awesome!!! Good luck! It’ll be here before you know it.
Thank you soooooo much! So tomorrow is showtime and i'm nervous as all GET-OUT! I know this is normal so I'm trying to keep busy to take my mind off of tomorrow. Doing some laundry (making sure I have all of my MOO-MOO's clean) and trying to remember If I got everything that needs to be done and ready to go when I get home tomorrow. Please keep me in prayer. My PS prescribed me something so I'm going to take a nice bath and one pill to help settle my nerves. I'll be joining you on the flat side tomorrow. :) :) :)

How long was ur recovery? Im loving your results and i was thinking of doing the same as you because i feel as of i will have lots of loose skin of i just do the bble with lipo alone

So ... idk where to start but let me tell you- if I could go back I wouldn’t have done both surgeries at once. It could be done however you will compromise some of the fat in your butt cause regardless whether you like it or not or no matter how hard you try not to lay on your butt or your sides— YOU WILL! I think I could have had more projection and hips but since I did the tummy tuck I didn’t have any choice but to lay on my sides. So think about it! I’m still in the recovery process. I’m on week 5 Post op. I would say I’m probably about 85% back to being myself again! Full recovery is like 6- 8 weeks. I think by 8 I should be good It’s hard tho. Just be ready! If I were you HONESTLY! If so Lipo with BBL then come back a few months later and do the tummy tuck! Keep us updated! Good luck!
Oh wow! Thank you for the advice. I honestly have been rethinking doing both at the same time and this kind of serves as confirmation. I still think your results look damn good!

I will def take ur advice i dont want to loose projection. Thank u.. Hope ur doing well hun

Your results look so amazing! Booty looks jiggly.... how are you liking it now. Did the fluff happen?
So yes! I’ve always heard about the fluff and I never really believed in it but it happened. At first majority of the fat was high up and my bottom butt wasn’t so full and it was all hard as a cement! By like week 4-5 - now my butt is soft, jiggly, and all the fat dropped to the bottom so it looks super natural! The fluff is real y’all so don’t you worry! You just have to remember - PATIENCE! I didn’t really like my butt the first two weeks honestly. But let me tell you- I’m loving it so much now!
Guuuurl yaaaas! Loves it!
Thank you so much. Keep me in prayer!

Belly so far

What do you guys think? I hate the swelling! Is that normal? I also did not have enough skin to pull down (I was shocked by this) so my old belly button is now stitched vertically under my new belly button.

You look good! Are you wearing a faja or compression garment most of the time? The swelling and all will get better as time goes on. I’m sure the massages will help, along with walking, drinking enough water, etc.
Thanks girl! Yeah I wear foam under my faja- I wear this about 22hrs a day. I’m ready for stage 2 faja (tighter) because this stage 1 is big on me already. Yes! I’m ready for the swell hell to end. Should be another couple of weeks.
Are you back home? How are you feeling? You look great! Keep up with those compression garments they are life! I'm planning on getting extra so I always have them on hand while I'm washing them. You can always have them "taken in" with a seamstress too so you dont have to buy more.
Your results are great. I would love to see some update pics. I am scheduled with Salama for September. I get super excited when I see results like yours. How was your pain? Did the pregnancy pillow help you sleep?
