What is really impressive about dr. Cortes is his ability to talk to different people and recognize the best course of action even when the body is not in its best shape. I found dr. Cortes in a group on facebook where women were talking about the post-pregnancy body. When I first heard them mention him, I didn’t check things further, but when he kept coming up in different conversations, I just got curious. And now I am so happy that I did. I first checked his facebook profile, then went to the sites and social media. I’ve seen so many pics of amazing transformations for his patients, I knew I have to see him and see what he can say or what he has in store for me. I was so looking forward to a bit of hope of improvement for my body that was making me so disappointed every day. The clothes didn’t fit me well since after the first pregnancy and I so wanted to look good again that I scheduled a consultation with him straight away. I didn’t even know if I had the money, but I knew that I will do my best to get a body like the other patients he had.
Dr. Cortes has been nothing short from a miracle maker in my case. There are still days when neither me or my husband believe that this is how I look now. I had the hourglass tummy tuck with dr. Cortes and now I’m all curves and voluptuous, to the extent that my husband noticed me at a garden party some friends were throwing and said he thought I was the sexiest woman there. This meant the world to me and I am very grateful for dr. Cortes and his talent. I now look the best ever and I am also the happiest I’ve ever been.

I’m day three after my breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Cortes, the pain has subsided and I am feeling more human. It wasn’t simple, I’ll tell you this. The day I got home from the hospital I felt that nothing changed, aside from a feeling of being tired, I felt like I could do things around the house, talked to my hubby without getting too tired or speechless, but once I fell asleep, I woke up in pain and like the first day didn’t existed. I couldn’t find the pills fast enough. In the evenings and at night the pain is worse and it is accentuated by the fact that I can’t sleep on my back at all. My hubby said he’ll get more pillows and arrange them so I will feel better, but he didn’t get a chance to go shopping yet. Other people told me that the pain will last no longer than a week, but right now it feels it will take forever this week.
I’m also worried a bit about the scars, I saw doctor Cortes yesterday and he said everything looks good and there is no sign of infection, this is great news, I thought I was a bit feverish and thought maybe the incisions got infected, but no.
Dr. Cortes was great before the surgery, he gave me lots of confidence that things will be ok. He is the best possible when it comes to patient’s care. So accommodating and kind and friendly and at the same time very professional. Now we have another follow up consultation in a few days, I hope he’ll say everything is ok.
The breasts are really big, I think a bit bigger than I expected, and they feel like rocks at this point. I have a tension sensation in the chest, probably the implants stretching the tissues. At this point is not very comfortable, but Dr. Cortes explained it is only temporary and normal. I’m looking forward to see how it will evolve in time and when the breasts will descend and soften.
I’ll get back to you with how the healing will evolve after this week, wish me luck.

To say I love my new breasts would be an understatement. I absolutely adore them and I couldn’t recommend doctor Cortes enough! Doctor Cortes did an amazing job and got me the boobs of my dreams. Things couldn’t have been better, my breasts really look better than in my wildest fantasies. And it is not just me noticing this, is everyone around me, my parents, my husband. If I knew I would feel so good about them, I would have probably done it long ago. If you are interested in finding out details about getting bigger boobs with doctor Cortes I can tell you that it is simple and efficient. Doctor Cortes has a great system and some lovely people working with him. I felt looked after at all times and very well taken care of. I liked that I could contact Janiris and ask questions, this was so good, especially after the surgery when I wanted to do everything right so I recover quickly.
After seeing doctor Cortes for the consultation, I got the estimate from Brianna and once it was agreed, the surgery was scheduled. I had the wonder breast augmentation with gummy bear implants, a very good choice if you’d ask me. The implants are 420 ccs and they look absolutely perfect. They are on the larger side, I wanted something impressive as I am not a fan of moderation and doctor Cortes agreed they will look good on me. When I woke up from the anesthesia I felt like I was hit by a bus, but in a few hours I was actually ready to go home. For three days I stayed in bed most of the time, I took my pills, but pain didn’t subside completely. If we are realistic here, it hurts when you step on a lego, it is normal to hurt when you get implants inside the breasts. I don’t understand those patients complaining that pain was intense. Well, it is surgery, and you know exactly what you are getting yourself into, especially if you have a doctor like doctor Cortes who will make it a priority to give you all the details before even scheduling the surgery. It takes a few months for things to settle and after this the breasts settle and drop and soften and they are a joy to look at!

I always wanted to share with you my experience with the hourglass butt augmentation surgery. It has been a year since I went under the knife, and only now I got the time to write a review of the surgery here. I have had positive experience with the hourglass butt augmentation, even though during the first few months after the surgery I was uncertain as to whether I will get the improvements I desired.
I am a 38 years old woman. I have four children, which means the pregnancies had affected my body in negative ways, let alone the effects of aging. Like many women out there, I desired to get the hourglass body that features wider hips and smaller waist. On top of that, my butts lacked projection and I wanted to have fuller butts that can make me look more feminine.
So, I consulted with three plastic surgeons and one of them promised me the achievement of all my aesthetic goals in a single go. Doctor Cortes recommended me to get the hourglass buttock augmentation, which he said would not only augment my butts but also carve my body into the hourglass shape. I was counting the days to see the results he promised and finally the day came when I underwent the hourglass butt augmentation.
It was a major surgery and the surgeon had already told me that it involved risks. The doctor was very cooperative and the staff of the surgical facility was professional and friendly. They took great care of me during and after the surgery. My health remained stable and I was allowed to go home two hours after the procedure. The doctor provided me complete instructions for a smooth and safe recovery and also prescribed me a medicine to prevent possible infections.
The recovery was not as discomforting as some patients say it was. For me, it was smooth and safe because I followed the surgeon’s instructions throughout the recovery process. The results started to emerge in the weeks and month following the procedure. Now that a year has passed after I got the hourglass buttock augmentation, I love my body. Those beautiful curves, wider hips, smaller waist, and fuller butts make me look sensuous and beautiful. While my husband has always loved me, he is super crazy for me now, thanks to the hourglass buttock augmentation and my surgeon.

When I first saw doctor Cortes I felt maybe a bit intimidated. He has an impressive presence and he is very professional. But he also smiles a lot and is very accommodating and this helped me relax a lot by the time the consultation was over. I didn’t schedule my surgery immediately after the consultation, I saw him for an abdominal liposuction but he suggested a lipo with a mini tummy tuck because my skin is not so elastic. I wasn’t ready for something so invasive as the tummy tuck, but I knew I couldn’t go forward with just the abdominal lipo because dr. Cortes explained what results are to be expected and I didn’t want more skin sagginess on the tummy. So, I got the quote for the surgery the doctor recommended and went home to think about it and consult with my husband. The tummy tuck was also more expensive than the budget we had for the lipo. After talking with my hubby, we decided not to go forward with it because it was not within the budget, but I couldn’t just forget it. I kept thinking about it and bringing it up from time to time, I didn’t lose hope. And my husband knew how important it was for me so when he got a check from work for the special projects in the last three months he came with it home and said I should use it for the surgery! I was so happy and called the office immediately to schedule the surgery. They were very accommodating and we managed to schedule the surgery in a time frame that was convenient for me. My hubby leaves home sometimes for weeks and I didn’t want to be alone after the surgery.
My surgery is next week and I hope I won’t be too anxious! I think about it all the time and I am curious if the recovery will be very difficult, considering that the tummy tuck is much more difficult than the liposuction.

Hello ladies! I am into the second week of my recovery after getting the hourglass buttock augmentation. I want to share my experience here with the hope that I may help someone make a good decision. I had always been unhappy about my figure, especially my butts, hips, and waist. I tried squats, workouts, and diet changes for year, but to no avail. My butts were still smaller and my waist was large, let alone my narrow hips. I was looking less feminine and desired to have wider hips, smaller waist, and fuller butts.
I am the 35 year old mother of three children. I started experiencing lower self-confidence after giving birth to my third child. My body was looking worse and I tried everything I heard to improve my aesthetic appearance. Despite my efforts, nothing helped. After so many years of feeling insecure, I finally decided to go for an invasive procedure as I had come to know that they deliver effective and quick results. I consulted with three plastic surgeons to explore my options. And I chose Dr. Wilberto Cortes because he offered my something that others didn’t. He introduced me to the hourglass buttock augmentation, which he said will widen my hips, add projection to my buttocks, and reduce the size of my waist.
The staff at Dr. Cortes’s surgical facility was awesome. The surgeon was professional and explained the procedure in detail. He examined my body, assessed my medical history, and asked my as to what improvements I am looking for. He made me feel comfortable throughout the consultation, explained the risks to me, and answered my questions.
The surgery was done under general anesthesia and luckily, I didn’t experience any complications. I got home with the help of my hubby, thanks to him for his support. He is staying with me and taking care of me as of now. My surgeon has advised me to avoid driving and work until I am allowed to. My hubby is taking care of my kids for now and has arranged a maid to look after the household chores. As of now, I had a positive experience with the hourglass buttock augmentation. I am going crazy to see the final results but I know it is going to take time to transpire. But right now I can see that my waist size has decreased considerably.

I am a 45 years old woman who got the hourglass buttock augmentation three months ago. Many people would ask as to why would a 45-year-old woman get plastic surgery, but let me tell you that age doesn’t matter when it comes to your body image and self-esteem. From my experience, I can tell you that old women are equally affected my aesthetic shortcomings and flaws in the body as young women.
I decided to undergo the hourglass buttock augmentation with doctor Cortes to get back my youthful body that was curvaceous and aesthetically welcoming. I had the hourglass body until I turned 35 and already had multiple pregnancies. I believe that both aging and pregnancies affected my physical appearance.
I was aware that with age come health problems. When we grow old, our bodies not always function like how they did during our youth. What this means is that I knew I would be exposed to higher risks by undergoing an invasive procedure. But my plastic surgeon assessed my health and told me that the benefits of the hourglass butt augmentation are higher than the risks for me. Luckily, I had no major health issues, so I decided to get the surgery.
The one thing that the surgeon emphasized on is having realistic goals by keeping my age in mind. He told me that you should not expect to get the body of a teen-age girl by getting the hourglass surgery at the age of 45. I understood his point and was ready for the procedure. I also had enough excess fat in different areas of my body that the surgeon removed from those areas through liposuction and transferred it to my hips and butts.
The recovery period comprised many weeks. It involved three weeks of downtime. I took sufficient rest during this period so that my body can recuperate from the surgical trauma and the liposuction incisions can heal. At three months after the surgery, my body shape has improved. Now, I have a curvaceous body but not that of a young girl and I am OK with it. But doctor Cortes told me that I am going to see further improvements in my body in the comings weeks and months.
I like by wider hips, shapelier and fuller butts, and smaller waist when I look in the mirror. I am super strict when it comes to my weight now because doctor Cortes told me to maintain a stable weight or lose the results. I am excitingly looking forward to a more enhanced body.

I got an hourglass tummy tuck with breast implants with dr. Cortes and people that see me who haven’t seen me for some time can’t believe it is me. I mean, truth be told, I never looked this good, not even before I had children. The damage that was done during pregnancy was like completely reversed and my body is now my real temple and such a fine looking one! I had the surgery with dr. Cortes about a year and a half ago and it took less than four months for the results to be final, the breasts were a bit hard for a bit, but with daily massages the situation improved considerably in no time. I also had to wear the belt to get the breasts to descend, which was weird and unexpected, but it did the trick and the breasts got softer too in time.

From the moment I met dr Cortes for the first time I knew he is the one that will do my boob job. I went to meet him after a friend recommended him. This was after I had three other consultations with surgeons but I just wasn’t convinced. One of them didn’t even see me personally, which I think is weird and wrong, the others seemed to be very rushed and seemed like they just wanna seal the deal and move on to the other patients. With dr Cortes was the first time I felt that someone is genuinely interested in my story and listens to me. More than this, dr Cortes has this style, he always asks why you want to do this, how do you think it will help, what do you want to achieve with the surgery. For me this made all the difference in the world as I felt that he will be able to look after me once the surgery is done too.
Dr. Cortes took enough time to do the proper physical examination and we had a look at implants, he recommended the gummy bears and I took them in my hands, god, they feel great! It’s unbelieve how good they feel to the touch and I like the idea of having a firm shape of the breasts too, for me is important for them to be up on the chest and perfectly round, lots of upper pole fullness. Some might think they will look not very natural, but this is how my dream breasts look like and this is what I am going to get. Dr Cortes said a high profile will do this for me, so I went with all of his recommendations and now I can’t wait to see how I’ll look after surgery. We talked a bit about what will happen during recovery and he mentioned swelling and bruising, I expect a lot of that and to last forever because this is how my body reacts, but it’s all good, I’m prepared and not worried in the slightest.
My boob job is scheduled three weeks from now, they managed to find me a spot before the date we scheduled at the consultation, and this is something that I appreciated a lot. They scheduled me in two months after the consultation, but it was a bad time for me with the kids school and all and I asked if maybe I can have the surgery sooner. They said they’ll do their best and a few days later I got a call to reschedule. Very, very, very nice and friendly staff, I couldn’t recommend them more!

I never had a constant weight, I would easily gain a few (more) pounds over the Christmas holiday but they would shed off before Easter. With aging, the pounds would be more and more stubborn to stay on and I started having more and more developed fat pockets around the waist. Combined with a small and flat buttocks it didn’t look nice at all. And I am in the entertainment industry so I can’t really afford to not look nice.
Dr. Cortes recommended a butt augmentation with implants and fat, I thought it would be better to skip the implants as I thought I had so much fat at the waist already and it would compensate. He said that without the implants I won’t get that hot projection that we discussed and the augmentation won’t be spectacular, but I thought at least I avoid the risks associated with implants and get rid of the fat in the waist and tummy. After the procedure was done, I kinda liked my new shape, despite the swelling and the bruising and I told the doc I’m happy but he said this is not the final results. After two months, the buttocks was smaller, just like he said but it was still ok. And after this all went down hill. I had a tough period at work, I worked 16 hours per day, not much sleep, not much to eat, in a month I lost a lot of weight and it seemed that there was nothing left after my buttocks augmentation. I also missed the three months follow up consultation with the doc and went to see him after things settled down. He noticed too that the fat disappeared with the weight loss and said it is normal to be so and that he explained before the surgery, which was true. Anyway, after a few months we scheduled the butt augmentation with implants, like he suggested in the first place and now I am six months the proud owner of a perky butts!

I found Dr. Cortes reading reviews online about the tummy tuck. I saw him performing procedures live and saw most of his videos about the tummy tuck and I couldn’t wait to meet him in person to discuss my procedure. It is such a big difference to see something online and then see how it would apply to your case. I was so thrilled that he is doing the hourglass tummy tuck procedure, this is exactly what I wanted. It’s like a tummy tuck with a twist and it completely changes everything and the image you see in the mirror.
When looking at before and after pics of others who had the procedure I was very careful to check the scars, but Dr. Cortes really has very talented hands, and it is almost impossible to find the scars, especially for lipo and fat transfer. I consider myself lucky to have found him and he accepted to do my surgery. I have diabetes and I was worried that this might be an issue, but the Dr.explainedwhat I need to do and everything went on smoothly during the surgery.
It wasn’t cheap the hourglass tummy tuck, I probably could have had the procedure with someone else for a cheaper cost, but I wanted the best and this is what I got. I think it’s important when treating yourself to go all the way and not stop at little things. The cost aspect was important for me, this is true, but at the office they will explain different payment options and I think it is not difficult for anyone to get the best care for a fair cost.
The hourglass tummy tuck make my hips look crazy hot, now I fell sexier than ever and my husband noticed that I am much more up for fun and games in bed than ever before. He keeps saying that he should send a thank you note to the Dr.!
I’m happy with the results of my tummy tuck and thinking about maybe getting a Brazilian butt too, also with doctor Cortes.

What I can tell you about having a tummy tuck is that the pain is real. Very real, very present and it will hit you after the effects of the general anesthesia is gone. The good news is that if you are having the procedure with Dr. Cortes, he will tell you all about this and prescribe you medication to get over it. He asked me how is my tolerance to pain and I thought is rather good with my two pregnancies and all, but apparently I am not as good with pain as I was when I was younger. The Dr.was so understanding and prescribed new pain medication when I told him I’m still in pain with what he gave me before. It was also my back, really really painful due to all that laying on the back. The new painkillers helped big time, so if you know you are not good with pain, tell him this from the beginning so you don’t have to go through the discomfort.
The tummy tuck is not a very simple procedure to go through. When you see the scars of other patients so small and like fine lines you imagine that this is how you’ll look like the next day after the surgery, but this is just not what happens. My scar seemed so long and red and all the things I feared that I was already asking the Dr. about scar treatments and if I can take it off with laser. But he said this is just a stage, things will get better, etc etc. But the thing is that they did get better. Now I am the happy owner of a fine looking scar that I can easily tuck in my panties if I want to keep it away from prying eyes! Really now, the scar will be the last thing you have to worry if you have surgery with Dr. Cortes. He is very good, so good that he can even make jokes about it!
Thanks, Dr. Cortes, I might be back for more. Next is boobies!

My husband wanted bigger breasts and he kept suggesting this like since we met. He is very much into huge boobs and I was a very clear A cup. He always says I wasn’t his type until recently (after my boobs job), so not in the first decade of our relationship. I think this is funny and it is like our joke, for him to ask for bigger breasts and me to complain he doesn’t love my small boobs. It was him who did the research and choose Dr. Cortes for a consultation. He was joking about following his work for many years, but I know he only started researching plastic surgeons after my third pregnancy when I started complaining that my breasts are not only small, but so low on the chest that I have to look for them in my panties.
Long story short, we went to see Dr. Cortes, appointment made by my husband who was also going to pay for the procedure.
I had the breast lift with implants and now I can see why my husband likes big boobs, they are just much more fun!!!!!!! Now even I feel like playing with them all the time, not to mention that my husband died and went to heaven when it comes to my boobs. I am his type now ????))
Dr. Cortes is very professional, and very good at what he does. I had a good surgery and no worried during recovery aside from some pain that I guess is normal.
