MY STORY
I had always wanted a big booty, unfortunately I was “blessed” with a small booty and even though I indulged in sports, it just never grew. I decided pretty early on that I was going to get butt surgery when I had the money.
When I finally got enough money to foot the bills for one, I started my research. I went through feeds on instagram and followed a lot of accounts that posted about surgeries and also compared before and after photos.
I wanted to do a BbL that looked as natural as possible. When I made an appointment with the doctor to discuss the processes for my surgery, I was told that I could extract any unwanted fat from my body and add it on my butt to make it bigger.
Luckily for me, I had enough fat on my stomach that it was more than enough to serve as the butt implants. I also was happy to remove the fat from my stomach because it gave me a much slimmer waist and flatter stomach.
Th e operation on its own went by in a blur. I was mostly not even aware of all the things happening because I had been given some drugs to help with the pain of the surgery and it had made me delirious.
From the moment the operation ended and I was completely active and aware, I started to feel really sick. I vomited constantly and I also felt really weak. I was allowed to stay in the clinic for just one more night after the surgery then I was moved to a different place to recover.
This place was called the recovery clinic. I stayed there for about 10 days and then after that, they gave me the go ahead to go home and recover properly.
When I got home, it was so difficult to do anything. The simplest movements were so hard and I felt a very intense and acute pain on my butt.
At some point, I even regretted my decision because the pain was on an entirely different plain.
It was was made worse because now that I wasn’t in the hospital again, I had to things for myself and it hurt a lot to do.
The results?
Well…the first thing I noticed when the operation ended and I was aware of myself was that my waist was significantly smaller and my butt had some gains to it. It still looked a bit weird then but now that some months have passed it looks a lot better and much more defined.
It also gets better each passing day.
Personally for me getting a BBL was something I’ve always wanted to do but it is not for everyone. It takes a lot of mental and physical strength to go through that kind of surgery.
At the moment, I feel little or no regrets especially because the pain has passed. If you feel like this is something you want to do and you’re strong enough for it, then maybe you should give it a try too.
