I would love to hear from other women who have used BB. I have just booked and paid my deposit for April 2027. I'm pretty nervous/excited this isn't something I ever imagined myself doing.

Extended tummy tuck, liposuction in 3 areas and a breast lift.

I am 40yrs old, I had my daughter 7yrs ago and my body never bounced back. Im not obese but I haven't been able to lose much in the mid section.

I didn't want implants but the surgeon is saying I'll regret not getting them for the shape. Im still not convinced but also dont want to be disappointed after going through all this so I will likely just get some small ones.

My husband and daughter will travel to Bangkok too which is great they can have a holiday while I wait in bed lol.

Any advice or photos would be appreciated.

I am under Dr Note at The Word Medical Hospital and I'm paying $19k which includes the 17 nights accommodation for my family of 3.

before and after are seven days apart. same clinic lighting, same retractors, so at least it is an honest comparison and not me finding better light.

what i had done: whitening, plus some reshaping on the two front edges. they were chipped slightly differently from each other and i had never noticed until someone pointed it out in a photo of me laughing.

it cost requires confirmation. the sensitivity was real for about three days. cold water, breathing in sharply through my mouth, that sort of thing. nobody warned me how specifically it would be cold and not pressure.

i went in wanting them whiter. the thing that actually changed the photos was the two edges being level, which i was not even asking for. blanche in nonhyeon. three visits, one week start to finish.

still slightly uneven along the bottom row if you look, and i have decided that is fine.

Hey! I’ve just gotten fillers, and i wonder what i should do, cannot do and shouldn’t do for the next 6,12,24+ hours etc..

Hello everyone!

Wanted to hear some insights as to the safety of clinics using live ultrasound mapping for liquid rhinoplasty. I have been getting nose filler for the past 7 years (HA Filler) and have always been very fond of the result (fixing dorsal hump). I am looking for a top up at the moment but very concerned about the various risks and potential complications, all of which I am well aware of. I'm looking at a clinic in London (where | live) "Bayati Clinic" which offers this as part of nose filler. It is different from a static ultrasound as it's live so the injector can see how the filler sits and avoid vessels more effectively. Bayati clinic appears to be a highly reputable clinic, and Dr. Bavati is GMC registered. This technology is fairly new so there is little information about it available online. Wondering if anyone has experience in receiving nose filler utilizing this technology? Or any doctors that are using this?. Very curious about how this changes the safety of getting nose filler.

Thanks everyone

This is a before-and-after case of an Endoscopic Brow Lift (Forehead Lift) combined with Lower Blepharoplasty.

Before surgery, the patient said that opening her eyes had gradually become more difficult and her upper eyelids constantly felt heavy. As the forehead and brow tissues descended over time, the distance between her eyes and eyebrows appeared narrower, making the upper eyelids look thicker and more crowded.

She was also concerned about prominent under-eye bags that made her look tired even when she wasn’t.

An Endoscopic Brow Lift was performed to reposition the descended forehead and brow tissues while maintaining her natural brow shape and facial proportions. The goal was not simply to raise the eyebrows, but to relieve the heaviness around the upper eyelids and create a more balanced eye-to-brow distance.

Lower Blepharoplasty was performed at the same time to improve the under-eye bulging and create a smoother, more refreshed contour.

After surgery, the upper eye area looks lighter and more open, while the under-eye area appears smoother and less tired.

She told us, ““I look like I did ten years ago—maybe even a little younger! Before surgery, even opening my eyes felt difficult because they always felt so heavy. Now, it feels much easier to open them. I still look like myself, but my eyes feel lighter, and I don’t look tired anymore.”

Then, with a smile, she added:

“I wish I had done it sooner.”

hey guys, this is kinda personal for me but i could really use some genuine advice from anyone who’s gone through something similar.

i’m visiting seoul early next year for a big milestone birthday trip to treat myself, but honestly i’ve been feeling super insecure about my lower face. over the past year or two, my cheeks started sagging and it’s honestly making me look so much older than my actual age. my laugh lines look way deeper and my overall face just looks tired and dragged down, especially in candid photos. it’s reached a point where i literally avoid photos.

i really want to look refreshed and get my confidence back, but i’m completely overwhelmed by all the sponsored posts and mixed reviews on tiktok and reddit.

i’m looking to get some non-invasive lifting or tightening procedures to restore firmness in my cheek area, but my biggest priority is finding a clinic that offers a direct 1:1 consultation with an actual doctor who evaluates my face structure properly — not just a 2 min greeting after a consultant picks a treatment package. also need English interpretation support and fair pricing.

i don’t mind paying a bit more for an experienced doctor who prioritizes natural results over factory style setups.

if you’ve had a good experience with cheek lifting or lower face tightening in seoul recently, could you share your recommendations? any input would be super appreciated. thanks!

I'm looking into facial balancing treatment (with derma fillers) in SF, preferably someone who takes a more natural approach and focus on overall facial harmony rather than just adding volume. Anyone here have done this treatment around SF? how was your experience?

When lipo alone is enough:

• Liposuction can disrupt some of the fibrous tissue supporting the skin, but during healing, tissue contraction and collagen remodelling often help the skin adapt to the reduced volume
• In my practice, many patients with adequate skin elasticity achieve a satisfactory result with liposuction alone
• Pre-op signs this applies: firm, consistent resistance on pinch test, and no significant wrinkling when you stroke the skin lightly

When skin excision becomes necessary:

• Ultrasound shows subcutaneous fat under 1cm with visible empty spaces between fibrous tissue and fat
• Raising the arm to shoulder height produces more than two finger-widths of visible skin sagging

The illustration below gives a rough sense of what meaningful arm skin laxity looks like vs an improved contour after the appropriate procedure. It’s AI-generated, so take it as a general reference rather than a clinical depiction.

In these situations, taking out more fat tends to make things worse rather than better. The skin has already lost its structural support, so removing what little volume remains just makes that more visible. In my experience, skin excision is what actually changes the outcome here.

The numbers I mentioned are personal reference points I use in my own assessments, not fixed numbers that apply to everyone. Pre-op laxity assessment is inherently subjective, and my read and a patient's expectation don’t always start from the same place.

It’s currently day 6 and my lips started becoming reddish after the skin started peeling. What do I do?😣

My Name Is Junior, I'm 24 years old, and I've lived my entire life with Sagittal Craniosynostosis.

It is treatable in childhood, but mine was never treated as I was raised by narcissistic, abusive African Parents. My parents didn't acknowledge my condition or get me help.

I am only 5'3", and my forehead is the first thing people see. For as long as I can remember, I've been stared at, laughed at, smirked at, and given weird looks in public. If I don't wear a hat to hide my head, I feel completely exposed. Even when people try to befriend me, it often turns into them wanting to touch or squeeze my forehead. It's humiliating.

Networking, socializing, making friends, dating — things that should be normal at 24 — have been a source of deep shame for me. I have developed severe body dysmorphia from years of this. I hated growing up like this. Only a few truly kind souls have ever treated me like a normal human being.

Everyone literally touches or rubs their forehead subconsciously when conversing, involuntarily comparing theirs to the size of mine.

I don't want to be stared at anymore. I don't want to hide under a hat anymore. I just want to live a normal life where I can walk into a room and not feel judged.

Needing advice other than America, where this surgery is affordable.

I’ve noticed a little more drooping/hooding of my upper eyelids as I’ve aged - not enough for a full bleph but I’ve seen some surgeons that do skin pinch for upper eyelids ( typically this is done on the lower eyelids) and think this could be a good potential treatment for me. However I’m not sure it’s commonly performed. Would love thoughts if I look like a good candidate for this and also if anyone has experience with this surgery - thanks!

My parents have given me permission to explore cosmetic treatments, including Juvéderm Ultra XC fillers for my lips and chin, as well as Botox for my upper lip and cleft chin. I will also be starting a modeling career soon, which is why I am interested in exploring these treatments. I would like to know whether any licensed medical professionals in the Bay Area can legally provide these procedures to someone my age with parental consent. I am also open to a professional consultation to discuss my options and determine what is medically appropriate.

Hi everyone!

I’m currently living in Japan and have been considering some cosmetic/aesthetic treatments. I’d love to hear from people who have actually undergone procedures here.

I’m particularly interested in hearing about your experiences with Japanese clinics, doctors, results, recovery, and overall satisfaction.

A few things I’d love to know:

• What procedure or treatment did you have done?
• Which clinic or hospital did you go to?
• How was your experience with the doctor and the staff?
• Were you happy with the results?
• How much did it cost?
• Would you recommend the clinic to someone else?

I’m also curious whether anyone has experience with English-speaking clinics in Japan, especially if you’re a foreigner living here.

I know experiences can vary significantly from person to person, but hearing some real stories would be incredibly helpful!

Thanks in advance! 😊

I really want to get lip filler done however I’m really scared of migration, duck lips or what my lips will look long term in general. My mother who’s very into beauty HATES filler and keeps trying to scare me away from it. She even told me that she had a friend who got lip filler long term and now her lips look very bad and deflated. I told my mother that I’d do my genuine research into where to get it done even if it means spending extra cash (I’m from a major city like Sydney so it shouldn’t be that hard to find good places) and I’d probably just get half a ml, see what I think and perhaps go for another half if I like it and that I could easily just go get it dissolved but she keeps telling me that it’d still fuck up my face. I don’t even think she believes that it dissolves but purely that it just migrates. Ive heard so much stories of girls online who sleep weirdly because their lip filler migrates in the direction of where they rest their head which really freaks me out and also my mums friends story freaked me tf out too….but I’d look SO hot with filler ITS JUST SO TEMPTING. I can wear all the lip plumper gloss I want but I will neverrrrrr look like the filler girlies 😭

I WAS however told that injecting your own fat into your lips (fat grafting) is a very good alternative. It’s more expensive but it’s very worth it. I don’t know much about it however so I’m curious to know what everyone’s thoughts are. Fat grafting lips or lip filler? Or just stick it to my lip plumper lol?

^{This patient’s main concerns were the narrow distance between the eyes and eyebrows, along with significant sagging around the outer corners of the eyes. The drooping tissue covered the outer portions of the double eyelid creases, making the eyes appear heavy and less open. Although the patient had previously undergone a forehead lift, the results had not met their expectations, making the decision to undergo revision surgery particularly difficult.}

^{The revision forehead lift was a technically challenging procedure that required careful release of adhesions from the previous surgery, management of existing scar tissue, and precise repositioning of the drooping outer eyebrows and surrounding tissues. Special attention was given to maintaining a balanced distance between the eyes and eyebrows while allowing the outer portions of the double eyelid creases to become naturally more visible.}

^{The patient was also concerned about the downward-slanting outer corners of the eyes, which contributed to a tired and aged appearance. Through Fox Eye Surgery (Lateral Canthoplasty, we enhanced the horizontal appearance of the eyes and gently elevated the outer corners, creating a longer, more refined, and naturally lifted fox-eye shape.})

^{To address the overall facial sagging, Thread Lifting was performed to lift and redefine the cheeks, areas around the mouth, and facial contours. Rather than focusing solely on the eyes, the combination of procedures helped create a more harmonious, refreshed, and youthful-looking appearance. The patient was especially pleased with how the overall facial contours appeared more lifted and defined.}

^{Additionally, the patient had concerns about a long-looking philtrum and lips that appeared to turn inward. These concerns were addressed through Philtrum Reduction (Lip Lift and Philtral Dimple Creation, which helped enhance the natural contours and definition of the upper lip.})

^{The nasal alae were also relatively wide and drooping. By combining Alar Lift and Alar Reduction, we refined the nostril shape and created a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing alar-columellar relationship (ACR.})

^{Because the patient had been disappointed with the outcome of the previous forehead lift, they were understandably cautious and concerned about undergoing another procedure. However, following surgery, the patient expressed great satisfaction with the improved visibility of the outer double eyelid creases, the more naturally elevated outer eye corners, and the refined overall facial contours.}

^{What made this case particularly memorable was the patient's happiness at seeing several long-standing concerns addressed together. From the eyes and eyebrows to the philtrum, lips, and nasal alae, each area was carefully refined to complement the patient's overall facial proportions.}

^{The patient shared that, this time, they finally felt that the concerns they had hoped to improve were properly addressed. Seeing their happiness and renewed confidence made this case especially rewarding for our team.}

^{Individual results may vary depending on each patient's anatomy, surgical history, and healing process.}

Hi everyone! ❤️
This is really personal for me, but I could use some genuine advice.

I’ve had ptosis in my left eye for several years, along with noticeable facial asymmetry. One side of my smile is higher than the other, and my nose also appears crooked.

What bothers me most is how different my face looks in photos, especially those taken with the back camera. It has affected my confidence so much that I’ve started avoiding photos altogether.
I’m getting married next year, and instead of looking forward to my wedding pictures, I’m anxious about how I’ll look. My insecurity has even made me consider a court marriage instead of a bigger wedding because I’m uncomfortable with so many photos being taken. I really don’t want this fear to keep controlling my life.

I’m looking for recommendations in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, for:

● A good doctor who treats ptosis and facial asymmetry.
● An affordable, trustworthy specialist who can explain what can realistically be corrected.
● Approximate consultation fees and treatment costs, if you know them.

I’m unsure whether I should consult an oculoplastic surgeon, a plastic surgeon, or someone else.
If you’ve had a similar experience or know a good doctor in Ahmedabad, please share your recommendations. I’d genuinely appreciate your help.
Please be kind. This is difficult for me to talk about, and I’m just looking for practical advice. Thank you!
