Bernice Burgos, who rose to prominence during the video vixen era and later became a major figure in nightlife at New York’s Starlets, has spent years in the public eye. The social media influencer, entrepreneur, and fashionista is the CEO and ambassador of Bold & Beautiful Clothing, a brand that promotes self-confidence and inclusivity through its diverse fashion.
Her early visibility in her 20s helped build her platform, which now includes more than 7.2 million Instagram followers and a growing fashion and lifestyle brand. But when it comes to her personal life, she’s moved in the opposite direction.
Instead of adding volume, the goal this time was change and growth, mentally and physically. Burgos explained that she wasn’t trying to completely change her body. “I just want to reshape my butt,” she said, noting that she still liked how she looked overall.
The now 45-year-old model and entrepreneur recently documented her BBL removal and body contouring procedure on TikTok, sharing footage from Beverly Hills, California, where she worked with Dr. Ashkan Gavami.
Gavami’s approach focused on achieving what he described as a “legging-tight look without the leggings.” To do that, he used Quantum RF, a minimally invasive treatment that uses controlled radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and improve its contour.
Radiofrequency (RF) body contouring is a non-surgical, painless procedure that uses thermal energy to tighten skin, reduce fat, and boost collagen production. It targets areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms by heating deep skin layers to
Results include firmer skin and reduced cellulite, typically requiring 2–5 sessions with no downtime.
How it Works: RF devices emit electromagnetic waves that penetrate skin layers, stimulating collagen/elastin production and shrinking fat cells. Some devices use a vacuum to enhance depth.
Targeted Areas: Common treatment areas include the abdomen (fat reduction and skin tightening), thighs (cellulite reduction), arms, buttocks, and sagging skin.
Skin Tightening: Boosts collagen to tighten loose or sagging skin.
Fat Reduction: Targets stubborn, localized fat.
Cellulite Reduction: Smoothes and contours skin, reducing the appearance of cellulite.
Procedure Experience: Patients usually feel a warm, relaxing sensation, often described as a hot stone massage.
Sessions & Results: A series of 2-5 sessions, spaced one to two weeks apart, is usually recommended for optimal, long-lasting results.
Candidates: Ideal for individuals looking to address mild skin laxity and stubborn fat without surgery.Popular RF Technologies/Systems
Safety: It is non-invasive with minimal risks, but should only be performed with FDA-authorized devices.
Limitations: While effective for tightening and minor fat reduction, it may not replace surgical procedures like a tummy tuck for extreme laxity.
Post-Treatment: No downtime is needed; patients can resume daily activities immediately.
Results from radio frequency skin tightening can last 1 to 2 years. The effect depends on the device used, skin condition, and the number of sessions. Most patients see improvements starting within weeks. Full collagen remodeling may take several months.
Quantum RF is a non-surgical, minimally invasive technology designed to tighten skin, reduce fat, and refine curves, often used to “reverse” or polish an existing BBL. A BBL is a surgical procedure that uses liposuction to remove fat from one area and injects it into the buttocks to significantly increase volume.
The gorgeous Instagram model shared that her backside wasn’t the only part of her body that she got done. “I’ve done a little bit of everything… I did my butt first,” she said on the radio show. “That was the first thing I did after I had my second daughter. I had these two dents [on my butt] and I just wanted to fill them up.” Take a peek at these sexy pics of Bernice right here!”
“It was illegal,” stated Burgos, speaking of her first surgery. “She (the person that did the procedure) actually, you know what, it was in a basement, but she had it set up real nice. It was a house though. It was so many years ago…That was the first thing I did, right after I had my second daughter. I already had an a**. I just wanted to fill my side dents. She hooked it up real cute.”
“If you feel like you have the money to do it, do it. Stop hating on the other girls….I love it to tell you the truth. I never say I regret [it]. Everybody’s like ‘Oh her fake ass’, but you’re going to keep looking at my videos, you’re going to keep liking my pictures….Social media is a mother f*cker. That sh*t will bring you all the way down.
