34yrs with Low Self Esteem and Tired of Being Ask if I Was Pregnant - Houston, TX

It has been almost 7 months since I got my full tummy tuck I wanted to let you all know that I'm not happy with the overall results my apparence did improve a little you can tell the difference but I still have a bulky stomach and a mustache looking scar in front of my abdomen I went to dr Cortes office today it was third time trying to address my concerns but it turned out the worse experience I had ever had my appointment was at 12:15pm got there at 12 after 2 hours they put me into a room the nurse asked me to get into a rope a few minutes later she brought my before and after picture she told me the doctor had sended it . After 2 hours of being naked the finance lady to walk in just to let me know if I wanted to get my revisions (fix his mistake )I will have to pay another $6000 really !!!I the worse part is that the doctor never came into the room to see me . I do not think this is fair I had saved for 9 years hopping to get my body back and the most important to feel Good about my self and he simply took my money did not do a complete job. I am aware that it was not going to be perfect but I least I expected a flat belly no more pregnant looking .

Hi ladies here is my update it has been exactly 6 months after my surgery swollen has gone down in most parts of my belly everything looks ok but I feel that the doctor did not do enough lipo or thigten enough skin. I have been having problems above my belly button it hurts constantly and get swollen I had 2 episodes were it has completed pot out I have addressed my concerns to the doctor but he said is nothing wrong. This pass Wednesday I went to see him because belly button came completed out not sure if it was because the swollen .Nurse (Doctor wife) entered the room I explained my concern she asked me to get undress for the doctor to see me 20 minutes later he walks in ask me to take my rope off all he said was you are looking good let me go get the camera and left the room few minutes later he came back and took pictures he was about to leave again and I actually stopped him and told him my concerns he just put a glove on and touched my belly then he asked me how was my weight I told him I had lost 4 pounds after surgery from 144 to 140 he pretty much told me I was fat and to start excercing which is not the case I excercize Daily and watch what at eat after all the money I expended I will not get weight again . To wrap this up I feel there is something wrong with my belly buttom area is not normal to get a swollen painful ball around it This doctor has not paid attention to my issue I though by now he should have order a ultrasound to see what is going on but instead he suggest that I'm fat . This coming week I'm planning to start looking for other surgeons opinions . lately there are a lot of complaints about this doctor I'm not saying he is a bad doctor and some of the girls got very good experiences but lately it appears that the only cares about the money once he has you and things does not come out as you expected you are on your own so ladies please take your time to read all the people reviews and then you make your decision. Best luck on your upcoming tra formations and I hope you all get he body you desire.

Yesterday 11/11/15 was my last Doctor visit. He told me everything look good and he did not have to see me unless something happen . Here is the deal at this point most of the swelling has gone down and I was left with 4 things that I did not like after my preocedure 1. Pocket looking loose skin left side under insicion 2. Folded skin / big wrinkle in the middle of my insicion 3 . Painful ball near my belly button 4. Small dog ear on the right side Doctor Cortes told me it was normal . I feel that he did not addresed my concerns I still very worry . Dr. Cortes seemed very rushed during my visit all he wanted to do was take pictures I had to insist on my issues besides this everything else is good I feel super secure /sexy and I think now is the time to hit the gym and go shopping for new clothes ;). Here are some photos of my 3 months
