So, I saw this thing online about SZA and her butt, right? Apparently, she got some work done, like a Brazilian Butt Lift or something. And honestly, it got me thinking. I mean, I’ve always been a bit self-conscious about my own behind. It’s not exactly, you know, “Instagram-worthy.”
I started looking into it, and it’s a whole world out there. This BBL thing, it’s like they take fat from one part of your body and put it in your butt. Sounds kinda wild, but the before-and-after pics were pretty tempting. So, I made the call, booked a consultation, and next thing I know, I’m on the operating table.
The whole process was a blur. They put me under, and I woke up feeling like I got hit by a truck. The recovery was rough, I won’t lie. I had to wear this special compression garment, couldn’t sit normally for weeks, and the pain was, let’s just say, memorable.
Here’s a breakdown of what I had to do:
- No sitting directly on my butt: For like, two months! I had to use a special pillow or just stand/lay down.
- Compression garment: This thing was like a second skin. Super tight and not cute at all. Had to wear it 24/7 for the first few weeks.
- Pain meds: Oh boy, did I need those. The first week was the worst.
- Lymphatic massages: These were supposed to help with swelling and healing. They felt kinda weird, but I guess they helped?
But after all that, was it worth it? I gotta say, yeah, it kinda was. My butt definitely looks, well, different. Fuller, rounder, just like I wanted. It’s not perfect, and I know some people might judge, but it made me feel more confident in my own skin. SZA, I get it now. It’s just like she said, “It’s just there to enhance whatever else. And that’s why I paid for it.” Now I can say “So classic, that a– so fat, it look natural,” and mean it, lol.
It’s not for everyone, and it’s definitely a major decision with real risks and a tough recovery. But for me, it was the right choice. I just wanted to share my experience because it’s not something you hear about every day from a regular person like me. It’s a personal journey, and if you’re thinking about it, just do your research and make sure it’s what you really want.
