I got a BBL & it’s been a nightmare, when I travel I have to lay down like a beached whale & people tut at me in disgust
A WOMAN who decided to transform her body with a BBL has admitted it’s been a total nightmare – especially when she travels.
Karmen took to TikTok to share a video of herself flying home after her surgery, as she said: “Watch me travel across the country post BBL where I can’t even sit.
“Yep, I have to fly across country not sitting.”
While she’d splashed out on a special BBL pillow for the flight, she admitted she didn’t want to sit on it for fear of ruining her new behind.
She had to go through security and because of her “foams, boards and pads”, they thought she was “smuggling something” and she had to have a strip search.
Once all checked in, she went to order some food, but admitted it’s more than a little awkward having to talk to a waitress and even eat your food while standing up.
“I just stood there with people staring at me as they walked by because I’m standing there eating,” she sighed.
At that point, she found a huge bench and decided to “beach whale across it”.
It was then time for her flight, as she said that she got the first seat in first class, and had to kneel on the floor.
“The person next to me felt very awkward and the guy across from me was an old, rich white guy who kept making ‘Ugh’ comments at me, staring,” she said.
Travelling in cars isn’t even much easier, as Karmen had to put the seat down and then lay half in the car and half in the boot to avoid sitting down.
Prior to flying home, Karmen had been at a recovery centre to help her post-op, but admitted in a previous TikTok that she was struggling, and starting to wonder if she shouldn’t have had the BBL.
“I’m here to tell you, if you think you want a BBL, no you don’t,” she said.
“This is the worst pain of my life. I’ve been leaking blood and puss for five days. It’s excruciating. I can’t even tell you the half.”
She added in the caption: “I’ve had to have my incisions opened constantly because of seromas and had to extend my stay because of complications.
“Physically and mentally I am just not okay.”
“I had a BBL in November and it’s hands down the worst pain ever. I’ve had three babies without an epidural/completely natural and it tops that 100%,” one person commented on the video.
“I had two and my second one got infected,” another admitted.
“I had open wounds for a year.”
