I Like the Dr. she took her time to explain to me the many options i had and what each proceedure can do or mean to me (example the dr. told me if i was completely done with my family meaning if i dont plan on having any more children then i can do a tummy tuck but if i do a lipposuction would be my best option but since im doing a fat transfer to my butt also she said she willl try and remove 80% of the fat from my stomache to transfer. and they did their best to squeeze me in on short notice

Hey Johanne, thanks for sharing your story and pics. Gaining weight depends on the doctor -- some want you to lose, others want you to gain. I wouldn't do anything until you've chosen your doctor and gotten his/her advice.

Do you have a doc yet?

Hello, would it be possible for you to post your after photos? I'm having a BBL done with dr ekstrom next January and would love to see some of her patients results. Thanks!
