I Thought About This for a Long Time. Glad I Finally Pulled the Trigger! No Regrets!!
I had a wonderful experience with every aspect of my surgery. Dr. Cortez and his staff are friendly and professional. Most importantly, Dr. Cortez is a perfectionist! He takes his time when evaluating and explaining what will be involved in your procedure. I was not nervous, at all, because I know that he takes great pride in his work. I had a lower face lift and I know it looks totally natural! I have people ask me what skin products I am using!! They have no idea that I had

Amazing Long-term Results
I have been a patient of Dr. Cortez for 20 years, beginning with a Phenol- Croton Oil peel in 2000. Since then, I have continued maintenance through Vascular and Pigment Laser treatments, Medium peels and the Hyalogy and Sente product regimen. Through his experience, new and proven technology and products, I have maintained a much younger look and the prior incidences of chronic keratosis and pre-cancerous lesions have been significantly reduced or eliminated under his care.

The best plastic surgeon in the midwest!
AMAZING!!! I am 59 years old and had many wrinkles. I had a lot of sun damage and a family history of wrinkles. I had researched PS's for procedures, not knowing what to do.  I went to 3 different ones, and each gave me a different scenario--facelifts, implants, Blepharoplasty, and other procedures. I was directed to another PS, Dr. Edwin Cortez with a different procedure that I hadn't heard about-PHENOL CROTON OIL PEEL. I went to see him and knew I found my answer.  After
Dr. Cortez did an amazing job
Dr. Cortez did an amazing job with my botox. I have a very natural look with softer lines and my eyebrows have even raised so they don't feel so heavy. The experience was extremely professional and essentially pain free.
My Experience with Dr. Edwin Cortez and His Staff Has Been Wonderful!
Over four years ago I had a under eye surgery to remove excess fat pads which made me look tired. Dr. Cortez also recommended as part of the procedure to tighten around my eyes for the best outcome due to my age. He had Dr. Thornton help assist with the tightening procedure who is a specialist in that area. The results were immediate as soon as I healed. Even now, four years later every time I feel tired and look in the mirror I'm amazed that I don't look tired. I'm so impressed
So happy with natural looking lip filler!
I had my lips injected by Dr Cortez and it is exactly what I wanted them to look like. I was completely numb-it didn’t hurt at all. My upper lip used to curl under and disappear when I would smile and the corners would turn down and make me look sad. He added just the right amount of filler to my lips. They are very natural looking and now you can see my upper lip when I smile. I am not scared to have him inject again the next time because I know he would not make me look strange
Awesome results, it was so quick and easy.
I got laser done by Dr. Cortez for capillaries on my cheeks and around my nose, also for some brown spots on my chest. The laser helped so much in getting rid of those! It was so quick and easy. I also get peels from Dr. Cortez which really get rid of the brown in my skin and help keep my skin looking amazing! He is so knowledgeable and I know I’m getting the best treatment. His skincare is fantastic and I love adding that to my regimen as well. I’m so glad I’ve found someone
He Saved Me From a Face Lift
I had terrible wrinkles. Dr. Cortez recommended that I have a Phenol Peel Instead of a face lift. I had the procedure several weeks ago - my wrinkles are minimal now. Dr. Cortez is a perfectionist and very professional. Dr. Cortez and his nurses work as a team to perform thorough education pre-and post care. They are very strict that the aftercare is performed exactly like they want and they stay on top of the education both prior and post care. My post care was pretty much
It was an excellent safe experience medical experience with expected results.
Excellent! Dr. Cortez and the entire professional medical staff were experienced professionals. Each procedure was explained at a pre surgery office visit and printed information was given for further review. Pre-surgery medical tests were given to insure my health was good for surgery. After surgery follow-up office visits were scheduled .
Ever Leave a Doctor's Office Feeling Better Already???
The office ambiance was so great, including the staff, amenities and the doctor's consultation. I was there over two hours, a lot of time for a doctor and his staff to allow me the time for photos, vitals, examination of my face, background for health and reasons for wanting surgery, and then recommendations and options. Time went fast for me, as everything was covered so thoroughly and with thought. Updated on 13 Apr 2019: I've had Dr. Cortez' name on my calendar for many
