You look amazing!. I'm so glad I found your review. I was planning to go to Dr. Cortes for a BBL but I've decided against that. Please keep updating, I'm considering Dr. Salama. Thanks

Ladies I am one happy lady! I bought my plane tickets today and paid my $500 deposit for the recovery house! I have 2 more months and I'll be a salama doll! I'm not going to lie ladies if I could do this ALL over I would of went to Miami the first time for my BBL! I looked at doctors in Miami when I first wanted BBL and decided I wanted to stay local and made a bad decision bc I didn't want to travel and I lost $10,000 plus a small revision which was $3,000. And I am left GROSS :(
But that's ok I am coming back strong ladies! Look out for this baaaaad body in August

This will be your second time, correct? It was my second as well. It was helpful knowing what to expect, but this one was definitely harder for me than my last one. I am fine now (2 weeks later) and was fine after the first week. Now I am just hoping my butt doesn't go down too much more!

So sorry to hear about your experience. I have read many good review but also many bad review on Cortes. It seems like with him its a hit or miss. Being that us girl are dishing out all this money to look A1 putting yourself in the hands of a Dr that is hit or miss is wayyyyy too risky in my opinion. However I respect anyones decision who chooses to have their surgery with him.
