Sexi

Where do I get the silicon sheets

TIA
I didn't have any scarring problems with my breast reduction/lift

I do have a visible scar from the tummy tuck, which I think was my fault. I did not take care of the scar the way that I should have from the beginning. I was sooooo happy with the flat stomach that I did not pay attention to the scar. I am trying to fade the scar now with every scar reduction cream/oil available

[/QUOTE]
believe it or not silicon sheets work on old scars and new one's.. so you could still use that to make it lay flat.. but to fade it you can use dermarest a cream at walgreens and it really does help to fade the scars even now..you can find both at walgreens

We don't offer the buttocks augmentation procedure, we
perform the fat grafting procedure for buttocks
augmentation: First we have to liposuction in areas we
consider you have the best fat. (For example the
abdomen-hips and waist area) to harvest the fat and
place it into the buttocks; cost of the liposuction in
the areas needed and buttocks fat grafting is $3500.

You must know that up to 30-40% of the fat might get
reabsorbed by the body; If we are able to harvest
enough fat to store; then you have an option of a 2nd
session within a 14 month period; cost for the 2nd
session is $300.



You all are really on point.
Thanks so much for that info.
I am a little confused though
We don't offer the buttocks augmentation procedure, we
perform the fat grafting procedure for buttocks
augmentation"
So when he said not offering the buttocks augmentation is that to mean implants.. I don't want any of those.

That is a great price, like I said the guy in Miami charges 14k going up to 18k. I ain't balling like that and I am not willing to take out a loan for that. I got babygirlto feed.


Those that are getting responses back are you just emailing them through the link on the website?

actually this procedure is called the brazilian butt lift, which is different from buttocks augmentation those are implants.. the brazilian is your own fat from lipo which i would prefer that as opposed the the buttock augmentation..

Thanks. That is what I was wanting to look into the Brazilian butt lift. I don't want any implants. I am going to research some more Dr's in CR and see what I come up with. There is one in Tijuana that a lot of people are raving at and I hear his prices are good, but I also like the idea of going to CR for a nice get away.
Thanks ladies you all are truly the best!

Ok I'm freaking out cause my Dermatologist said to go to American Laser Center in Manhattan for my stretch marks I have an appointment @ 6:30. Doing my own research on  laser stretch mark removal, don't seem right for my skin. I am pron to scars and keloids. All the videos i have seen of the procedure being preformed was on fair skinned woman or just white women all together. I'm soooo scared that there going to mess up and make my situation worse.

So here is my question for my BF's out there:

1. Do you think that they are going to tell me the truth? That I'm not a good candidate for the procedure or lie to get my money?

Help a sister who is freaking out over here!!!!!!!atomic

that's true all laser's are not for women of color b/c they can change your pigmentation, but there are a few that can.. the vela shape might help your situation and its a laser but its also like  Elos technology uses a state-of-the-art combination of radio frequency energy and infrared light to stimulate your body’s metabolism. Suction skin rollers are added to smooth skin and help provide for an even dispersal of energy. The effect of VelaShape is like combining the best aspects of Endermologie with LipoDissolve. VelaShape can help contour and shape your body, while providing smoother, tighter skin and reduced cellulite.
 
but i think that the fraxel laser would be best for stretch marks and for women  of color b/c i know of a brown skin woman that used it for acne scarring and her skin looks beautiful now and its also used for stretch marks.. Fraxel Laser Treatments for stretch marks. Fraxel Laser Treatments are best known as a revolutionary non-invasive procedure approved by the FDA for wrinkles, acne scarring and skin discoloration.
