1 year & 9 months Post Op
So this is how my body is currently. I have lost some weight (due to nausea associated with migraines) so some of my butt is smaller, I didn't gain enough weight for Dr. Cortes to add any weight to my hips but I am going in for his hourglass tummy tuck and hopefully he can do it then....
2 weeks post op.
Hi gals ... Just wanted to update my progress. So far the bruising has gone down a lot but a lot of pain has actually came back . We had a cold front come in and it seems to not be great for me. My inner thighs hurt bad and it's still a struggle to move well. Not to mention it is very lumpy (have been using prescribed cream and faja) Called doctors office and Lucy said she will have Deanne call me back. I'm okay with fact that they had to take fat from there but not thrilled... Doc Cortes told me at consult that he wasn't going to take any fat from there because my legs didn't harbor much fat. He wasn't at my pre op and I had gained the weight he told me too but he ran out and didn't get to do any 'hips' on me. So as of now my waist is still at 1 inch and a half smaller and I still looks square from the front . I'm hoping I get more shapely with time but kind of bummed he wasn't at pre op to let me know to try to gain more because the weight I had gained wasn't sufficient. He wasn't at post op either and I spent a total of maybe five minutes right before surgery (where I asked him if I can show him wish pics to refresh his memory on what I hoped for. He repeatedly said 'I can't make you look like anyone else. ' I felt like I almost forced him to look. I KNOW that expectation of looking exactly like pic is unrealistic but how was I going into surgery without showing what I liked? 10k isn't chump change .. ) he came into room for less than two minutes after surgery and that is last I have heard or seen him. I wish I had the great interactions others have had with him. I am very easy to please and not at all a strong personality to deal with so I don't feel like I was being harsh. Deanne is wonderful and every interaction with her has been great. She has been my calm in this. I am still satisfied as my butt looks great and I look so much better than before. But as someone who has worked both at doctors offices and customer service for over 14 years, I can say it has been subpar at most. They were dealing with my body and I only felt as if Deann was showing care for how I looked and felt. I will see how rest of my healing goes.
