GBIf someone would have shown me pictures… If someone would have shown me pictures with my body two weeks after the hourglass tummy tuck I would have said I am never getting surgery in my life. There is no sugar coating this, it looked terrible. I was so bruised and swollen my husband was afraid to touch me anywhere. I had bruises even in areas that were not treated during surgery and I was swollen even down there. The doctor said it is called fupa (fat upper pubic area). Well, mine looked like it just eaten a kitten. I didn’t know what to do and each time I called the doctor he said it will subside, nothing to worry about, put some ice on it. Each time, the same thing, that I have to be patient, magic doesn’t happen over night. At this point I wasn’t waiting for magic, I would have been happy just to get my old body back and get rid of all the swelling and bruising. It was after two months that my body started to look better. I looked online and most women don’t have so much swelling after three weeks. For me it was like getting worse and worse until it started to disappear. After three months I was ok, not so freaked out anymore. But even when the tummy and the waist started to look better, down there things were the same. It looked fat, but the doctor said it is just swelling. I didn’t understand how it could be swollen only there, Dr. Cortes insisted I give it a bit more time and if in a few months I’m still not ok with how it is, he can do a bit of lipo there too. In the end it was mostly swelling, I didn’t get the lipo procedure because I didn’t want to risk getting all swollen again. Now that I had it and I see my flat tummy, and small waist and I see that my husband looks at me like he’d eat me, I think it was all worth it. But when I think at the pain and the swelling, and how I thought it will never go away and I’ll be like this for good, I don’t think I’d have the courage to go through it over again.

PKIf you want a good surgeon If you want a good surgeon, but also a friend and a real support network, then you must have your surgery with dr. Cortes! I can’t tell you how happy I am that I had him on my team when getting the breast augmentation that I was hoping for since I was 13. I only had to wait 10 years for my dream to come true, but thanks to dr. Cortes it did and now I have breasts that draw a lot of attention each time I go to the beach! There are so many things that I do differently now that my breasts are bigger, it is hard to imagine before the surgery all the ways that my life would change. Now I think back at some things and it is hard to believe it was me. Doctor Cortes was amazing, in all honestly, he did magic things not only to my breasts, but also to my morale. He is the kind of doctor that really gives a damn about his patients. When seeing him for the first time I remember I was thinking that he looks so young and still he is so experienced. Lots of patients have went through his hands and from what I have seen on his social media, most of it is real art. When I went to see him I was defensive, didn’t know what to expect and how everything will be.

GBTo be honest To be honest, the fact that I looked at least 20 years younger after the surgery probably made all the difference in me getting the job I have now and being so in control of my life. The breakup it was hard to take, but with the surgery I kept busy and then looking for a job. It was a roller coaster, but I came out of it smiling and looking better than ever. My ex thought I got the surgery with the money he pays for child support and this is so funny

GBI'M SO HAPPY with my results About 3 months ago I had Mommy Makeover with Dr. Wilberto Cortes. I'm so happy with my results!! I never had this body in my whole entire life, I was always Pettie lady with no shape. He did 12 hours surgeries almost 0 complications. They answered every phone call and text even when if it was after hours. One day I called I wanted to see doctor because I wanted to show him something on my body and them both (Wilberto Cotes and his wife (who is also doctor)) were waiting at the main door for me. His staff is very encouraging, positive, and honest. If they do not know something they always confirm with Dr. Cortes or his wife, I felt very safe under their care. Most of his staff is RNs and everyone else work with him has professional Certification or License (I confirmed that before my surgery) Again, I'M SO HAPPY with my results, the best decision I could make was choosing Dr Cortes. I highly recommend him to all my family and friends. PSA: Do not forget to schedule your messages before surgery.

GBI am 32 years old I am 32 years old, not married or any children and I work in fin tech. I decided to get breast implants not so long ago, as I realized that just joking about how small my breasts are all the time was just means to let out frustrations. I was not comfortable with having breasts so small, more than this, I think that feeling like maybe I am less feminine than other women has affected me on a deeper level than I have realized until recently. I think that I used to push men away with a too masculine attitude, despite the fact that I was always trying to wear feminine clothes and it was rare to find me in anything than a dress or skirt. My first meeting with Dr. Cortes was short and seemed a bit like sealing a business deal. He explained what happens during surgery, what implants he recommends and why. This after measuring my body, he asked a few things about my lifestyle, but I didn’t fell like we connected on a personal level. I don’t know if it was him or me, but he has been recommended as the best of the best and after seeing pictures of his past patients it was very clear for me that he is the one to do my surgery. One thing that maybe was a turn off about the consultation was that he asked about children, if I want to get pregnant. It felt like an intrusion in my personal space, it is a very delicate topic for me. He explained that he asks about children and pregnancy because the results of the procedure can be altered if I get pregnant. Because of the hormonal fluctuations and the weight fluctuations, the breasts might become saggy, even after surgery. And there was also the breastfeeding issue that he mentioned, the milk production being limited if implants are too big. Anyway, it felt very awkward him talking about all these things, for me it was like from another life, from another planet. Didn’t make any sense. I mean I understand that he only did it so I was informed of what can happen, but it was certainly not my concern at that moment. Two months after the surgery my breasts were just perfect, proportionate to my body, completely natural and so inviting. I think I become a completely new person after getting my breast implants. Dr. Cortes is a great Dr. and his support after the surgery was priceless and highly appreciated. I am glad I ended up having the procedure with him. I recommend Dr. Cortes to all women who want to have the bust of their dreams.
