Im 31 years old and have decided to pull the trigger on a BA. I found this website to be extremely helpful when trying to determine what sizes to discuss with my PS. Therefore, I want to share my stats, before, and after with the community here. So, as mentioned, I’m 31. 5’3” tall and 120 lbs

Tummy Tuck
I had been thinking about a tummy tuck for years after I had my daughter. My stomach wasn’t bad. But it wasn’t flat. In weighing the scar of a tummy tuck vs my belly for years I chose not to move forward. My daughter is now 20 and I’m 53! The combination of a slight baby bump and aging...

Professionally Speaking
As an anesthesia provider working in operating rooms throughout the Houston area, I have the luxury of observing the work of many plastic surgeons. Dr. Cortes is one of the best by far!! He is humble, personable, caring, and his techniques yield AMAZING results. MOST IMPORTANTLY, his PRIMARY FOCUS is the SAFETY of his surgical candidates. It is why I chose him—and will continue to choose him—for my aesthetic needs.

Doctor Cortes is more than a surgeon, is a nice person and this speaks volumes about him and his work. He listened to my concerns and addressed them all and in the end he suggested the best possible option. Now I am four months after my breast reduction and I feel like never before.

It’s never too late to make a change, this is what doctor Cortes told me during my first consultation for an hourglass mommy makeover. It made me feel so good about what I wanted to do and gave me so much confidence that I’ll get the results I wanted. And I was right to trust him and his team. Highly recommended!

It’s not only about the surgery, it’s also the recovery and preparation that lead to good results and dr. Cortes made me realize this as we discussed my breast augmentation surgery. The whole process was easy and straightforward. I don’t know if I would have went forward with the procedure if I wouldn’t have met him and Janiris, the patient coordinator, also very helpful and attentive.

All I wanted was a surgeon that I could actually talk to. But going in and out in like five minutes and paying for all those consultations left me a bit disappointed. My friend insisted I book a consultation with dr. Cortes and he was exactly what I’d hope to find in a surgeon. I had my BA with him three months ago, very happy with the surgery and all.

I saw before and after pics of different patients, tummy tucks done by other doctors but they just looked a bit weird and square shaped. I wanted better and I knew I got it when I met dr Cortes and the team. Janiris is amazing, such a kind and patient woman, it’s no wonder she is the patient coordinator.

It wasn’t before my 30th bday that I realized I needed a tummy tuck. After 4 kids I kept thinking my tummy will shrink back, but when the little one turned 4 and I was still struggling with the belly apron I knew it’s time for surgery. Dr Cortes was amazing, helpful, patient and a spectacular doctor. Highly recommended.

I feared complications that could occur when getting plastic surgery and this is the reason why I kept postponing my breast reduction surgery for years. I was convinced to go on with the BR after meeting dr. Cortes and the team. So very professional and everything was neat and looking spectacular, I knew I could trust them.

I had my second surgery with Dr Cortes last month, a breast augmentation. My first was lipo about two years ago. Very pleased with the whole process, Madde was such a doll and so patient with me. I am still getting used to the new boobs, so far I’m so happy I avoided infection and any other complications.

Two weeks after my BA and my boobs are still high, in my neck! I talked to dr. Cortes and he says they are going to drop, everybody tells me the same thing, but I’m just anxious to see it happen sooner. Janiris was amazing and so supportive. So grateful to have all of you on my side.

I got butt implant with fat grafting last December with dr. Cortes after many months of being undecided whether to go on with the surgery. I though butt implants are enough, but when dr. Cortes showed me some results with both, I was like stunned. My butt is now round and just perfect, like you see in dr. Cortes before and after pics of patients.

Congratulations, dr Cortes and team! Best ever! You made me and my hubby very happy! I got breast augmentation last November, after six months of waiting (I wasn’t able to take time off from work). My boobs are firm, round, just like I wanted them to be. Great results from a great doctor!

I was always in pain because of the huge boobs I was carrying on my petite frame. And I was so sick and tired of always feeling uncomfortable in anything I’d wear. I went to see dr Cortes for a BR and I had the surgery three weeks ago. General anesthesia and the incisions are not even that bad for all the relief I got.

Unlike any other plastic surgeons I met, dr. Cortes actually took the time to discuss my issues. I was so unhappy with my body, each day was like one more reason to hate how I looked. I told all this to dr. Cortes and he suggested the hourglass mommy makeover surgery. Five months post-op and things going great!

I had a bad experience with my first lipo and I only found the courage to see Dr Cortes after my boss strongly recommended him. Such a big difference, incredible. Him and Janiris, the patient coordinator are just incredible people. I had my breast reduction with him four months ago.
