I think she is only getting her hips done....He starts at 10500.000....I was going to Corte until the price went up in a matter of 3 days...before they even did a consultation or saw my pics.... I 1st was quoted 9500.00 then a day later they said he starts at 10500. ...so I asked was the max. She stated 13500. Because he is the best. So I started shopping around.... have money and I did pay cash for my procedure but when I'm done perfecting my body I still want to have money lolol

Hey OK thanks for reply and yes I think he does great work but I also notice his prices had increased since the first time I ever started looking into him like a year ago, and I to want to have money left over lol but I see your going to dr Fisher I am considering him as well is he a good choice because I know they have some bad reviews but not on him on other Dr that's work there are still do can up please make my decision feel a lot better lol thanks again

I have spent 9000 total including travel and lodge garments etc

OK because I'm reading reviews and I'm getting a bit concerned with the staff I total my cost so far just with the procedure and the aftercare and I'm at 7600 I believe and that's not including airfare and my supplies which I'm still a bit confused about that but I'm only in the beginning process trying to get my money straight so I'll know what all I have to spend but I'm glad you reached out and if you don't mind can you keep me posted as to how everything goes I'm sure your going to post before and after pics I'm so looking forward to it and I do pray everything goes well because I'm definitely looking to head down that same path...

Wait. ...Dr cortes quoted you 7500.00 for a bbl?????? His starting price for bbl is 10,500.00. ....starting. ....ate you getting something different from a bbl?
January 11, 2015
No that's with Dr. Fisher lol I wish he did quote me 7600 cause I really would like for him to perform my surgery but he is just way to expensive for me that's why I was asking you about Dr. Fisher because I've been reading so many bad reviews on vanity itself and I'm looking to have my procedure done with him because he's good to but the reviews are horrible lol

Soooooo, tomorrow is my big day! To be more specific I'm getting buccal fat removal, lower and upper back lipo, full stomach, flank, arms and chin lipo! I'm currently right now 5'4 and 177 lbs so I'm so excited to be REAL FINE! I'm going to upload pre=op body pic so you dolls can see. It's 7,500. 5,558 for Dr. Cortes and 1,970 for hospital fees BUT you still need your prescriptions! So, it came out to about 8,000 I just hope its worth it. I've been wanting the like FOREVER even thought about going to Duran in the DR a few years back!

Question - why does everyone say.... "Omg , you don't need that" But the girls that have beautiful curvy bodies are worshiped by society and the same people saying oh... you're fine just the way you are. WHAT'S WITH THAT? :/

I'll update in the am!
