Hey dolls so I'm 18 days post op today. My booty still looks like the dr could hVe injected more but hey whats done is done I have to work with wirh I got. (For now that is) I'm still swollen I had a massage on Friday and man that thing hurt like hell I wanted to slap the woman. It made me feel so much better after, I went home and slept like a baby. She told me my garment was not right enough in the waist area and suggested I had the garment altered. Ladies help me, I don't want the lil booty I have to flatten out anymore so what can I do for my abdomen? I have another garment that's making a crease in my side. So what to do help a Sista out. I need suggestions for my abdomen and lower back because it still looks fat back there but I kno there is a lot of swelling. Besides that I'm healing well I think. I'll post pics when I get a chance!

Today I'm 11 days post op I've been back home now 2 days and I've cried. My husband hardly look at me twice, he looked and said ur butt is still flat and I was crushed. I did express to the Dr I wasn't pleased with my butt because I was expecting him to fill it out a bit more as well as I had stress that I wanted projection more than anything else due to my body type. I have big Breast so with good projection when I turn sideways I would be proportioned isn't this the while reason of the surgery. Well he stated he put in what my butt could take and now with most of the swelling gone im almost back to square one. I'm still lot sitting and I wear my garment. My stomach I'm definitely pleased with and I expressed that to the dr as well. Even with still some swelling present I'm 100% pleased. I do look better in my clothes. I tried on a few outfits that I wasn't able to wear before and they look so much better now. I don't know what to do about my butt because I don't want to have to deal with this pain again neither do I want to deal with any issues with Dr.Findley. Because I would hve to pay for a revision which means I would have to do lipo again (well I would do well with my bra line being lipoed) and have that transfer to my butt but I don't want to have to spend more money on something I did already. I'm so torn.

I definitely see a difference. Not sure what you were going for as far as your butt but he definitely could've put some more back there. However, again I do see a difference. Hopefully as more swelling goes down you will see even more.

I've see another doll with same concerns here on RS. She gave it about a month and updated her post. There was definetly a difference! I hope you see a difference. It's interesting, I'm getting my hips filled out minimally. But now, I'm starting to think I may just need to let the Doctor do his thing just in case...I ask for conservative....but i rethinking

Was there's difference for her in a month? I just wanted a lil more but I'll try and be thankful with what I do have because it's better than where I was. I had let myself go so much and I hid behind girdles and fly clothes that I didn't stop to really see what was their whole I was naked but I'm glad I caught it before it got worst. I just have to work on what I have now. Thanks hon

Thanks I'm giving it time however I've heard what U see is what U get. Most of my swelling is gone so I got scared hopefully whatever fat takes will expand and make my butt bigger.

Sore but recovery slowly but surely

So I'm 6 days post op and lawd its been a roller coaster. I went in on Thursday 5/5/2016 I was in the OR on the table getting prep by 9:15-9:30am.! That's the last thing I remember, I was able to respond to commands such as roll on to ur side or move over a bit this way or that way. There were a few moments when I felt a lil pinch but would drift back off to Lala land. I remember waking up cold and shaking, I was able to walk from the OR to the recovery room. I stayed there for I don't know how long before I was taken out and placed in the back seat of the car. I got home and went right back to sleep. Now 6 days out I still have not sat at all. I prop myself up and stoop whenever I use the restroom. I had two lymphatic massages at the dr's office and one today in Sandy Springs. I will not do anymore until I go back home. Oh and all 3 of my drains fell out by themselves. I'm still draining and vey sore ans tender especially in my lower back. I hate the butt out garment they give its digging and cutting into my butt and my cookie. I have another butt out garment that's doing the same thing. I have one with the butt covered but scared to use it because I don't want it to mess with my butt. Well that's all for now, Hoping for a speedy recovery! I thank God this far.

How long were you in the car? I am going to Miami to have my stuff done but it's a LONG ride home and I'm not sure if it's safe but I'd rather not get on a plane after my surgery.

I was in the car to the airport for 35-40mins and I sat for the flight to take off and land that's it.
