Brazilian Butt Lift with Dr. Cortes -Houston, TX

After a few years after my BBL, I had to update my status because there is only one thing I regret from this surgery........ and that's allowing Cortes to take fat from my legs. My right leg was over-done, so much so that it looks like a bear mauled it for dinner and it has never recovered. For people who are considering this surgery, think hard and careful about where you remove fat from. The surgeon just can't go in and take as much fat as he/she wants without thinking of the design of what's left over. Some surgeons can be so concentrated on the design of your butt, that they don't care about the design of all the parts of your body they're touching to make that butt.

This is probably my last entry in this blog. So I want to give my final thoughts and future plans as a sign off. First off, let me say Dr. Cortes is a caring and good doctor. We are mostly satisfied with everything he has done, but we are most likely going to go to Jimmerson for an enhancement surgery. Every surgeon has their strengths and technique styles so it's not a matter of if he/she did a good job or not, but rather if your tastes match their style. So let me give you my thoughts on Corte's "style"....

Dr. Cortes is what I call a "top-heavy"/hip bbl surgeon. If you want good latina style hips, he's the man for the job. He's also great at giving you more top and outer cheek fat if you need it in those areas. However, his weaknesses are inner and lower cheeks. These areas will appear flat in comparison to the top and outer cheeks. This is not what I've seen just from my build, but from other women on here as well. I would say to all future Cortes patients, since you know his style from reading this blog, get him to focus on his weak areas, and help build his craft to become the best in the biz, because he definitely has the potential to.

So like I said earlier, we're gonna see if Jimmerson can take a couple hundred cc's and "fill-in" those flat areas and give me a more symmetrical projection. We made this decision based on other blogs where we've seen Jimmerson's fat-insertion sites. He has insertions in the inner and lower cheeks, and that's why he produces such good projections in those areas. Dr. Cortes doesn't have insertions there (his are only in upper and outer regions), so that's why we feel going back to him for a second BBL would only exaggerate what he's already done.

Although this is my last entry in this blog girls, be looking out for a second blog in the future about Jimmerson's "touch-up". Bye dolls..........for now...... :-)

First off, let me update that my butt looks great and I have not lost any volume at all. No lumps, no hard spots, and it rounded off very well. I uploaded a pic to show me going on a night out with the husband, and he is very proud, lol.

But what would I change.........I would not have gotten my legs lipo'd. My legs were my best attributes, and really didn't need altering. First off, there are pits/craters on my right leg in the lower thigh and around the knee. Second, the upper leg is not touched in lipo, only the lower, and fat is depositing in the upper thigh (where lipo wasn't done), making this weird turkey leg appearance (skinny bottom, fat top). But of the two, the pits/craters bother me the most, leaving me unable to wear a bathing suit. Does anyone know if they will disappear?.......it would take fat redepositing in those areas again one day for that to happen.....I presume.

Lesson I learned from this..........don't lipo an area that you love already just to have more fat available for the butt. If the surgeon can pull enough fat from other areas to get it done, then stop there. You can mess up an area that you love trying to fix another area that you hate.
