I didn't think I would ever have another cosmetic surgery procedure but I am now scheduled for a tummy tuck. The BBL with Dr. Cortes was hugely disappointing. My belly was left looking so deformed. I have folds in awkward places from the liposcution canula. I have lumps and bumps that are impossible to hide in ANY bathing suit. It just looks so unnatural. I wasn't looking for him to fix my abdomen. I've had four children and my belly was yuck but it was at least something I could live with. I did NOT expect the BBL to leave me with an UGLIER belly...but, that's what I got. I also go a lumpy bumpy booty, more so on one side than the other . And the way he lipo'd my back gave me fat rolls I NEVER had before, even at my heaviest. Overall, I'm hugely disappointed. My booty is somewhat more full. But it SURE doesn't look like something I should've paid TEN GRAND for. Needless to say I am not going with Dr. Cortes for my surgery to attempt a fix for this mess.
I will start a new review for my tummy tuck. I'm HUGELY confident in the surgeon I have chosen. I made the mistake of blindly going with the "butt master" when I had the BBL. I didn't even interview anyone else. I followed tons of reviews on here and blindly chose him. I allowed him to treat me like HE was doing ME a favor. Lesson learned. I consulted with multiple docs this time. I did a ton of my own research and kept looking until I found "the one". I'm truly looking forward to my procedure with him. This time has been entirely different on ALL levels...in a very positive way.

Your front view looks very shapely. I can tell there's a difference. How has your swelling been? And the garment? By now, you should need a new size. Don't worry too much this early into your healing. Things look very different at the 1, 2 and 3 month marks. Sending you healing energy

Honestly? I can't really tell much swelling...I haven't since the first couple days. My massage therapist thinks I still have quite a bit. We shall see. I am down a garment size. This thing is TORTURE! I'm hanging in there though. I'm doing everything that was asked of me, hoping for the best. Thanks for taking time to comment and encourage. I appreciate it!

My pleasure. I know it feels like torture, but the results are so worth it. I noticed that the ladies who were aggressive with their recovery garments tended to have better results - I plan to be quite vigilant after my second round :)

Yes I see improvement. Keep your garment on no matter how frustrated you may become and your results will get better and better as the weeks goes by. Hang in there.

I'm not giving up. I'm still rocking the garment (aka torture device...lol) and getting lymphatic drainage massages. I paid too much money to not doing everything in my power to get the best results possible. Thanks for the kind words!

I don't know why the pic didn't upload the first time. I did forget to mention that I ordered it from Amazon. Just FYI
Thanks!
