Horrible pain first few days - weigh more 2 weeks after surgery

I'm in the process of getting one. Can you believe my results!? I wana [RS bleep] cry 24/7!

I had no idea you looked like this hun. What did you get done with Cortes? Was it just a bbl?

Yep. Just a bbl! And look how fukn disgusting I look! I'm so embarrassed and I don't have another $11,000 to give someone else to fix it so my only choice is letting HIM fix it and pay the revision cost but I'm scared to death to let him fix it so idk what to do. I'm so upset over this!

Women before me that I have seen in pics look nothing compared to whati do, I like my butt but it's like he was ina hurry to finish to get to the next girl. He never seen me in recovery I didn't see his face until my appointment a week later

Burns girl!

I haven't asked for my hospital report as yet but I will do so next week. Even if I do get it what will it change tho? I know he will not do any work for free when his ass should. I don't know why he did some pretty bad surgeries on some of us.

True, but I would love to compare his notes to the hospital report. I would like to match what he told me to the report. I want to see exactly what was taken out and how long the procedure lasted. With so many girls getting the same bad lipo results and some girls have worse than me lipo wise, something is bound to happen. The thing is, ppl would have to prove negligence and thats hard. Paying a lot of money for a lawyer and not getting anywhere is a big disappointment, i would rather use that money to get fixed. But hey, if they can prove something, than definitely go for it because maybe something happen to someone that didnt happen to us.

I don't see how it would be hard to prove when all they have to do is look at the thousands of patients who came out wonderful and then look at the patients he had in that few month span who all have the same exact results so apparently it's not something WE did and I have an email himself saying he takes 6-7 liters but another saykh he only took 2 from me after saying he would at least take 5 and it's dozens of girls and only the ones he did in these certain months. [RS bleep] it ima try anyways!

Yea I been going back and forth with the girls over there I'm not giving up this is [RS bleep]!

I understand what your saying. I'm not saying not to. If I thought I could do it, I would. I've talk to 3 lawyers whom told me that we would need to prove negligence. They said just because he didn't give us good results doesn't mean its malpractice. That is why I just gave up. Understand he fucked me too so I'm on your side here but at the same time its hard to be let down all over again if a lawyer picks up the case. The 1 lawyer I spoke with didn't even want to touch it.

I'm just so tired of being unhappy. Everyday I talk about it to my mom and best friend. I keep showing pictures of what he has done for others and not for us. If you can find someone that is willing to help us than of course I'm all for it. I'm just tired of these lawyers telling me negligence, proof, there's nothing we can do :( I'm soo tired and unhappy and most of all BROKE

I'm going to.inbox u!

I replied in the wrong area check out my comment above ;)

I've seen so many girls recently withthe same problems as us and its so sad. When I see his staff argue with girls on here I just smh because how could they do that and act like they wouldn't be disappointed either. My.mom was in the room when I requested things to be taken out. So at least I have someone that can.back me up on my requests. I am not being unrealistic. If he made me lose the weight he said for me to lose and that he was gonna give me a flat stomach than I should have gotten it. Even out of surgery I asked him and he said the same thing!! I look at you girls that are smaller than me and he still messed up with u guys, smh....I feel for all of you and we shouldn't have to give an extra cent for a revision with him!!! I understand if I have just lose skin, I can expect that. Ughhh it feels better when I can talk to u girls. I see other girls saying they are happy with his results and that he has been followingvup with them after surgery but he hasn't done that to me or many of us so I don't understand. Are they lying, is Dr.c acting??

please keep me in the loop on this

I had surgery in Fl. They are only allowed to remove 4 liters of fat at a time. Is there a restriction on the amount of fat that can be liposuctioned in Texas? I'm sorry you are not happy. This sx is too rough physically & emotionally for you to be unhappy. Keep us posted.

Im still left with fat on my damn body! Im f.... pissed too hun. Imagine this, I've had 2 bbl and still got fat in all the same areas before any bbl's ive had. Is this nuts or f..... what!? I totally understand where your coming from.

Girl I'm on [RS bleep] FIRE! I found out he only took 2 liters from me after he told me he would at least take 5!!!! I just emailed them and told them I would have [RS bleep] NEVER paid him $11,000 if he would have told me that was all that was going to be taken! This is [RS bleep]!!!! I'm the exact same size minus a couple inches on my tummy and plus a couple on my ass! My arms lega chin hips EVERYTHING IS STILL THE EXACT FUKN SAME! This is not right and something needs to be done about it! I say we team up! No joke. what he's doing to girls is wrong!

I feel for you hun. Im in the same boat as you are. Im tired of girls comin on my page sayin I should be happy with my results, says who I should be f**** happy! I am left with so much fat on my damn body. I showed him wish pics for both bbl's and said he knew what I wanted. Im left with fat and dents, ain't that f*** up doll. Paid over $18, 000 on both surgeries. This is really ridiculous!

Yes it's [RS bleep]! I'm so pissed. And I'm not letting him get Away with this [RS bleep]. My husband wants to get a lawyer. He knew what I wanted as well and I was TOLD he would at least take 5 liters! I already emailed them about it and I'm waiting to hear the reply. Have u told them anything?

And yea I have a huge sent on my stomach that he says was from the garment but it was there right Fter surgery! The brown spots he told me were going to just fade away are now permanent unless I use bleaching cream ( which he just told me 2 days ago), I have a huge ugly burn scar on my stomach, my thighs are two different sizes and butt cheeks are two diff sizes I have more fat on my upper abdomen then my lower etc. this is [RS bleep] for the amount of money we pay to have something done and it be done half assed!

So many unhappy ladies. I would be upset too. He doesn't take any responsibility.

I know for a fact my upper tummy was not lipo'd too. I have weird indentations there and its not all flat. I have the same issues as you too. I am beyond f.... pissed right now. This Dr thinks he's God and that he does everything so perfectly he's so wrong. Too many ladies are pissed off at this damn ass Dr. I now need to fix my butt issues and more lipo with another Dr. Can you believe I've had 2 bbl and still got tons of fat. This is pure [RS bleep]!!!

Yes it's [RS bleep]!!! And now they quit answering my emails and put me on hold and just hang up!! I'm so fukn mad! I have dents and burns and I know for a fact my upper tummy was not fukn lipoed either! My ass cheeks are two diff sizes I have permanent brown spots everywhere a huge dent in my thigh my ass is SOOO funny shaped and he won't even try to talk to me about fixing it!!!! I'm calling a lawyer this is [RS bleep] even if I can't win a case I can damn sure make sure this gets out there so he don't do this to anyone else!

Nope! None! I was told it was my fault for wearing the garment wrong when these problems were there before the garment!

I mdg Cortes personally on FB a few times and all he said to me is this; "You look great and amazing. I did all I can do for you.

I meant message

OMFG are u kidding me!!! [RS bleep] that! I'm calling my lawyer I paid for one thing and got 1/3 of what I paid for! Girl I'd be fukn loosing my [RS bleep] if he told me that! What's his fb I want to go message him!

Did you ever get a lawyer?

Yes I'll be posting them this afternoon. And the unevenness is so obvious but when I asked him about him he wanted to play like he didn't see what I was talking about soluble you ladies can be the judge of how obvious it is so I know I'm not going crazy!

Yea I bet he plays dumb....my stomach is on even too at the bottom... I think since he did such bad Lipo, Lipo won't make it better so I'm considering getting a mini Ty in the future to correct it. I'm so embarrassed for any man to see the way my stomach looks.

Mini TT*

Hey hun, you are swollen and the extra water you're retaining is responsible for the extra pounds. It's very important to do your part though: KEEP YOUR GARMENT ON 23 hrs a day DRINK A LOT OF WATER - when you think you've had all you can take, Drink more! Take your singular - it helps improve swelling Walk around as much as possible Get lymphatic massages ASAP - if your lymph drains are closed due to knots they will not drain properly, leaving you swollen. On between massages massage the areas you can as much as possible to improve circulation Eat clean - we can't work out or get around normally so you don't want to gain wait. Watch out for foods that increase swelling (salty foods, any fast food, snacks) and eat foods that keep you hydrated (watermelon, cucumbers, cabbage, bananas-they all help with swelling). Hope this helps!

I guess I'm just panicking Bc to me it doesn't look like swelling. It just looks like...me. And I was hoping to be smaller in the waist than what I'm seeing and more projection in the butt than what I'm seeing.
