WORTH IT$16,868
Hello! This site has been such a help in my research! Therefore, I hope my journey helps as many as possible!
I originally loved the work of Dr. Miami in Florida but I am not willing to travel. :(
I then looked up best plastic surgeons in Houston where I live and came across Dr. Cortes. I am sooo ready to have this surgery done, I am just trying to get my tubes tied prior to the surgury! Scheduled for March 2017 but I applied for care credit today and got approved for 11,000! Exactly the rest I need to get it done ASAP! I'm thinking early to mid Oct2016.
Stats:
I am fairly tall at almost 5'9. I have been a 32b steadily after losing the "baby weight" from my two children. I weigh 143 pounds.
I have diastasis recti and a small umbilical hernia from having children. I am currently at my goal weight but I look 4-5 months pregnant with no VS bombshell bra on. :'( SAD! I cannot wait for my muscles to be sewn back together!! My abs are 4 finger witdhts apart at the widestpart of the diastasis. Ugh sooo ready!
Procedures I'm getting:
- full tummy tuck
- lipo and fat transfer to hips
- chin lipo
- breast augmentation (silicone)
Hopes:
32DD in the breasts. Tiny snatched waist. Smaller belly button(mine is now huge!). Wider hips to create an hourglass proportion. These love handles gone!!! Chin fat gone and sculpted jaw :)

Best of luck going with that doctor! He doesn't do very good work! His Lipo technique is horrible and will leave you needing further work! I speak from experience

Would love to see your current pictures... late October 2016. Im thinking of having my make over in Feb but have to go to beach wedding in April, not sure how scars and healing will look 6-10 weeks out. You looked great before, and incredible now. I have had 4 kids, and dying to get rid of my hanging belly.... and my boobs which are naturally a very full 36DD which i have had since 3rd grade. I want perfect Full B's so i can wear strapless shirts/dresses, etc.... Also, posdibly rear implant. I have no booty. :( i live in Dallas and searching for a surgeon.

Sorry just saw this! I will post pictures of my scars tomorrow :) healing is going okay so far. People say wait 6 months for "final" results but i see immediate results and tummy os getting flatter and flatter every day. As long as you are up to making the drive every appointment and anytimr you feel something is wrong or anything..

Hi - this is what I'm having done, minus the chin. How was your recovery? I'm soooo anxious and scared about the pain that I'm making myself miserable. My surgery is next Thursday.
January 11, 2017
Pain is so worth the outcome! Just bad pain for the first week! You will need ton of help with doing anything! Hope everything goes great! Best thing I could have ever done for myself! I hope you feel the same about your results! It's been almost 3 months and the result is amazing.. and they say 5o wait 6 mon5hs 5o judge results!

I know youre not happy with your breasts and I support you wanting to get them changed but I think they look so sexy in a cute way! very youthful! I'm sure you'll look gorgeous no matter what :) As for the BBL I can totally see how your muscles are popping out. No hate here but I can see how that makes you look much bigger than you are. That will probably have the biggest effect. Keep us updated! Oh, and is it 17,000 for all four procedures?! That's like a clearance for real. Awesome deal.
September 17, 2016
Thankyou for you kind words :) Yep almost 16,000 for all those procedures. I had one other quote here in Houston that was a bit more at 17,800. Will keep everyone posted, I have my appointment with my obgyn on Thursday about getting my tubes tied, then I can make more official surgury date :)
September 17, 2016
My quote for a bbl only is 10,500 and that's not counting meds, supplies, or the flights, hotels, and nurse!
September 17, 2016
Omg where are you getting that done Houston? Also they discount significantly when you do more than one procedure thank God!
