What I tell doctor Cortes each time I go for a check up is that he did a much better job than mother nature and he is much more talented than her too! I mean my body before the surgery was regular, nothing to write home about, maybe the sagginess on the tummy and the fat, but those would have been negatives, other than this, nothing impressive. I had an hourglass tummy tuck with a breast lift and now I look like a celebrity, no jokes about it. I adore my body and I can’t believe it is possible nowadays to dream of a body and actually get it. I look now like in my wildest dreams and it was doctor Cortes who made it possible for me. The procedure was about four hours long, I didn’t have any complications and I am telling you, girls, go for it if you want to have the body of your dreams.

I scheduled and rescheduled the consultation with Dr. Cortes for like three times. I so wanted to get the Brazilian butt lift, but I was afraid of the patient. My sister told me to just have the consultation and talk to the doctor about my fears and if I am not comfortable, I don’t have to get through with it. After the first ten minutes with doctor Cortes I knew I will be ok to have the surgery. He explained that the BBL is less invasive compared to the butt implants and the results are all natural, few and rare post-op complications and the pain is not so intense because the muscles are not sectioned like when the butt implants are inserted. He gave me so much confidence, it was like I could have got the surgery immediately! I was scheduled two months and a half from the time of the consultation, dr. Cortes is booked months in advance, but for me it was ok. He explained that it is not possible to get the surgery immediately, I needed to do blood tests and prepare a little.
The surgery day was ok, nothing special to report, not too much pain or anything. After I got home I struggled a bit with sleeping on the tummy and getting off the bed without help, but I got used to it in a few days. I had some questions about showing and cleaning the area so I called Janiris, the office manager, you won’t believe how kind and professional are these people, I absolutely adore them!
I’m grateful I met doctor Cortes and he did my BBL. I was scared of the surgery and I think that if I would have had the consultation with another doctor I would have never gone through with the procedure. Dr. Cortes is easy to trust and rely on because he is so friendly and experienced. So if you have a fear of pain, doctors and hospitals in general, try doctor Cortes and you’ll be ok.

I’m happy, happy, happy and I only have doctor Cortes to thank for this. Almost a year ago I had an hourglass mommy makeover with him and now I look like I’m not even a mommy, which is absolutely fabulous. Many people would be offended if people would ask them if they are the nanny of their own kids, but certainly not me because I know why this happens. I have three kids and when I take them all to the park and everybody asks if I’m the nanny I know they do because they think there is no way to have this body and three kids, and I am probably the sexy aupair from god knows where! It is so funny and I feel amazing in my new body. My attitude changed completely and now I am more opened to see the good in me and in others too.

Getting plastic surgery in my late 40s was probably the best decision I ever made about my wellbeing. There is nothing that compares to feeling young and more importantly looking young when life has already took its tool on you. I had three children, all grown up now and I was free to do what I wanted with my time and money, so I went in and had a mommy makeover with doctor Cortes. You might think I was a bit old for a mommy makeover, but apparently this was the right procedure for me, as I needed some lipo and some work done both at the tummy and the breasts. I got great results and now I’m a walking, talking advertisement for doctor Cortes!

I need some advice before taking the plunge. I have my surgery scheduled in four days, the hourglass butt augmentation with dr Cortes. The consultation with him was great, but I wanted to ask you how did you feel after the anesthesia and if you did something to feel better immediately after. I have had a bad experience with general anesthesia before, it takes forever to wake up from it and I feel like I was hit by a bus after waking up. I told the dr this and he said everything will be ok and I shouldn’t worry, but I was wondering if any of you guys have experienced something similar and have some advice for me. I will try to eat light the days before the surgery and mostly fresh fruits, avoid fried foods and overly processed foods, alcohol and caffeine, other ideas would be highly appreciated. I will also try to drink plenty of water in the days before, but I don’t know how much this will help.
I am not concerned about the surgery as it is, I have all confidence that dr Cortes will do an amazing job. We talked a lot about the recovery and the results during the consultation and I have been looking at before and after pics of his former patients for months, so I am really ok with him doing the surgery and I trust him completely. It is just this small issue of the general anesthesia. My mom was so scared for me the last time when I had issues waking up and this made a lasting impression on me and now I am a bit scared. Dr Cortes said there won’t be any issues and if it happened once this is no indication that it will happen every time, more than this he ensured me that the anesthesia is done by a board-certified anesthetist and I will be monitored non-stop, so all should be good. I am just thinking if maybe there is something that I could do before the surgery to make sure there are no anesthesia complications. Thanks girls!

In two days I’m having an hourglass tummy tuck with dr Cortes and I’m excited and anxious at the same time, I can’t think of anything else. I spent this week cleaning the house and going grocery shopping and then cooking, and more cleaning, just to keep myself busy. The times seems to go so slow now, it’s crazy. I had the procedure scheduled two months ago, after the first consultation with dr Cortes. It was a hit and run business, as in we hit it off right away and scheduled the surgery when the consultation was done. I kinda knew what to expect in terms of costs and Brianna confirmed that my estimate was correct when she gave me a quote after the consultation with the surgeon. It’s not cheap, I’ll tell you this, but who wants cheap plastic surgery? Really now, all I want is the beautiful hourglass shape and to get rid once and for all of the skin sagginess on the tummy. Dr Cortes said that even some of the stretch marks will disappear with the skin excision, so I am really looking forward to that because I am so sick and tired of those obnoxious stretch marks that make me look like an old zebra. I fell like for the last two years I’ve been postponing everything. Starting with seeing friends and even getting a new pair of jeans or new clothes. Believe it or not, I’m still wearing the maternity jeans, but they are so comfy and they don’t cut into the folds on the tummy which is a big deal for me. I feel that I have spent so much time in leggings and maternity clothes over the last few years that it will be difficult to see myself getting dressed in nice clothes again. But I hope that after the surgery and with new confidence, I’ll get back to the strong, beautiful woman I was before getting pregnant the first time.
I have so much plans for after the surgery, places to go, people to see, I just can’t wait. Dr Cortes told me it will be a few months until making a complete recovery after the surgery, but I am already making plans for a holiday with just my husband, to really enjoy my new body shape. I am so positive and confident that I will look just the way I want and I just want to get it over with the surgery asap ????

I did it! I just had my wonder breast augmentation with doctor Cortes two days ago! It was an amazing experience and I am surprised every day by how the process evolves and by my look! I was always so self-aware because of the lack of boobs and always felt inadequate and not feminine enough. I became being more and more shy and avoided any situations when I should have been in charge, even at work, or at my kids school. There were days when I was thinking I could do so much more, but when it came down to it, I rarely did anything at all. I just didn’t feel right and I was always trying to hide myself in the background so other people won’t see how inadequate I am. And it was all my breasts. I remember being such a happy child and teenager until it started to happen. Every one of my friends was growing boobs but not me. And when it was obvious that it is not going to happen for me, I started to shy away. My parents thought it is just teenage hormones, young adults, things like this. I tried once to talk to my mom but she didn’t understand my struggle. I was so busy with hiding that I didn’t even think there are solutions for my issues until some time ago. It was actually my mother in law that started a conversation about a nice of hers that had the breast augmentation surgery and how much it changed her and now she has a new job and a new partner and it is difficult to recognize her. This is when it hit me that I need to do exactly the same. I asked my mother in law to ask her nice all the details about the doctor and how much was it and I contacted doctor Cortes as soon as I got his details. It is funny now to think that I started reading about him only after I had my consultation already scheduled, but I never regretted my decision, not for one minute. About three months after the consultation I had the surgery paid for in full and I was ready to go under the knife, which I did with a mix of anxiety and excitement. Now I am recovering and happier than I’ve ever been. My breasts are so big and so high on the chest wall, sometimes I feel that it is not me anymore! But then I remember it is me, just a more courageous me. I can’t tell you much about the recovery, I just started to get off the bed more after two days of mostly sleeping. The pain is not easy to endure, but I know it is all worth it.

Dr. Cortes is my favorite doctor in the whole wide world now! If it would be possible, I would go see him for all my health issues! He is so kind and accommodating and so professional and I felt so good during the consultation and even after the surgery that I recommend him to everyone looking for plastic surgery on the body. I had an hourglass tummy tuck with him and a year later also breast implants and each time it was a good experience, not to painful and everything was very good. DR. Cortes really cares about the patient’s wellbeing and he will give you lots of tips and advices to get well soon and face no complications. There is nothing that I regret about my surgery, maybe just the fact that I didn’t have the two procedures at the same time, as he initially suggested, but I wasn’t convinced at that time.

I met doctor Cortes when I lost all hope that my breasts will ever look good again. About two years ago I had a breast augmentation in Thailand, I though is a good idea to get bigger breasts since I was there for over a month visiting friends that relocated there. The cost of the procedure was very cheap and my friends kept telling me that Thailand is amazing for plastic surgery. Anyway, I did it. Some get tattoos when they are drunk, I got bigger boobs. It wasn’t a stellar idea to be honest and I don’t recommend this to anyone. I got an infection after the surgery and I can tell you that the after care was very limited and I was in terrible pain, not to mention the incisions opened and I thought I’m never to be ok. I returned to Texas and things seemed to be ok for a while, but when I went for a MRI they said the right implant is ruptured and leaking. The pain started again and at this point I just wanted them out and to never hear about breast implants again. A friend recommended doctor Cortes and I hoped he’ll see me and take me in as a patient. The first consultation was ok, he said that plastic surgery abroad is rarely a good idea and I completely agreed, but now we have to fix it. I told him to just take the implants out and leave the breasts as they are, but he said this is not a good idea, the breasts will be saggy after being stretched by the implant for so long. He recommended either to change the implants with new ones, a better quality, or to get a breast lift. I chose to get new implants since I got used to the idea meanwhile, so why not. This time around, after the surgery I think I was in less pain than the first one and doctor Cortes prescribed analgesic medication and antibiotics, so I don’t get an infection again. The breasts look much better, feel much better and I am more happy than before.
I wouldn’t advise anyone to get surgery abroad, everything is simple until you face a complication, then you are just a nuisance for them and they want to get rid of you as soon as possible. Here, I felt great with doctor Cortes and his team. They are amazing people and highly experienced and professional.

My husband was deployed when I told him I’m getting plastic surgery with dr. Cortes, and he showed full support and said that he hopes I’ll achieve what I want with the procedure. Little did we know then, when we talked on the phone how changed I’ll be when he’ll get home to see me. We saw each other for the first time about five months after my hourglass tummy tuck with dr. Cortes and he was so stunned I knew I did well to have the surgery. It is so funny to see someone you love and care about deeply falling in love with you all over again. For the next two months we have a new beginning, a new love story and lots and lots of spectacular sex. I always think of dr. Cortes when I look in the mirror and admire this cool looking body. I remember his words when he said I’ll look great, the best. I didn’t fully believe him now, but I do now.
Dr. Cortes is a great surgeon, he is talented, professional and very experienced and he does deliver on his promises. He promised me curves, a thin waist and results that will knock out my hubby and this is exactly what I got. What I think is important to mention is that it is important to have the right attitude when undergoing plastic surgeon. Dr. Cortes did his best, but he told me that a lot can change during the recovery period and I need to play my role, otherwise the results could be less than satisfying. I am happy I listened to him and now I got this fabulous body that I can use to seduce my husband all over again! So amazing, thank you, dr. Cortes!

Unlike other surgeons that I saw before, dr. Cortes was honest with me. He didn’t try to make things look better or worst, he just assessed the facts and gave me his medical opinion without trying to influence my decision. I decided to get the hourglass butt augmentation and also some more lipo on the thighs. It was the right decision for me and my body looks now as it should, as I wanted it to look. The butt looked good after the surgery too, as the doctor used both implants and fat, but after two months or so, my whole midline was changed and my waist was thinner than ever. I had curves, something I always wanted and I was so proud of my new body that I showed it of at every event I got the chance of attending. So far I think I’ve sent at least three more patients to dr. Cortes, people who loved my results and wanted some for themselves!
