Update of the attempted fix
2 months after an attempt to fix my stomach area. It's not looking good :(.
I've done the Venus freeze 8 sessions in attemp to tighten the skin in addition to laser Lipo and it still looks bad.
I'll have to wait for a few months before having another attemp at anything, but bodytite seems to be the way to go.
I'm a bit too depressed to write more, so I'll just post the photos that are 2 months post op.
If anyone has any ideas of how to fix, please feel free to share.

Really disappointed in work of dr. Cortes and even more in myself for not doing more research on him
This is really bad.
I've just came back from the operation, trying to fix my knees and legs to try and look the same as one bigger, one smaller. It seems like I'll be doing corrective stuff for a while now.
My infection on the hip might have to be cut out if it continues as now it's been 6 months. Got another set of antibiotics and the swap of fluid to be tested again if it is growing, so we'll have to wait and see.
I now have a dent in the hip area due to that. Lovely to see after paying all that money. I would have been better off going to Thailand twice, it would not cost me as much and I would have certainly got a better job done.
Kind of hard to do worse than this!

Not happy with work of dr. Cortes
First let me apologise for not updating sooner, but I have been quite distraught by how my body looks now after dr. Cortes.
Not that his work just destroyed my whole body, it has also had/has a mental tall on me. Going from perfectly smooth and tight body, I have gone to lumpy, uneven, deformed body that has even a couple of spots of sagging skin, which happened (by three opinions of other plastic surgeons!) because he has gone too close to the skin with the cannula. One of them even start researching if he was really a plastic surgeon based on the way that I looked. He said, I find it hard to believe someone is that incompetent!
What a lovely thing to hear when someone is looking at your body that is supposed to be enhanced...
I will do everything in points so you can all get a better picture.
My bbl with liposuction:
1. Chin.... Looked same with a difference of one sucked out dot in the middle of it. When I say dot, I literally mean a dot/dent under the chin in the middle. So you can imagine how that looks
2. Arms..... Looked a little slimmer, but left arm has one large cannula line across.
3. Back.... Upper back not liposuctioned proportionally to the lower so looked like boobs, right upper side considerably larger than left upper.
4. Stomach.... Uneven, lumpy, on lower left and close to the belly left with sagging skin due to the liposuction too close to the skin, taken too much fat out (due to other doctors opinions).
5. Legs.... Discoloured from the burns still, uneven on inner thighs, looks like a wave, not a leg line and taken too much fat there in proportion to the other body, leaving legs looking like O shaped ones and not straight.
6. Knees... Even though he said he has done them, i don't see the difference, plus one looks bigger than other, don't know if that is still swealing from the inner legs? Or he touched one of them slightly and forgot the other???
7. Bum... Left one higher than the right one
Overall: I am actually searching for some positives. At the moment I can't find any apart from that I look slimmer in clothes.
Have lots of dark large scars from liposuction all over the body. Not a good look :).
Since then, I have gone under one laser liposuction to even things up and to help with the skin tightness (done a couple of weeks ago).
Please note all the photos posted here have been made prior to the corrective operation thar took place 2 weeks ago.
