Scheduled for Butt Implants with Fat Transfer with Wilberto Cortes - Houston, TX

So disappointed

Now that the swelling is going down My butt is getting smaller and my right butt cheek is bigger then the left as if he put the implant more up. I'm so disappointed & I know if I bring this up to them they will say it's My fault the way they said about all of the other complaints I brought up about other clients.

I'm in the same condition as you. We just have to be patient and don't panic. Unless it's infection or scar opening. I saw 1000 pictures before after implants and they all look great. .. even if implant is not big it still will show the difference. Patience. ...patience
Hey i recently had surgery with dr c too did he fat graft in your hips or just butt?
you simply cannot say after such a short time don't loose faith !

Hang in there girl, you have so much healing to do and the swelling can often be deceiving.

Yes be patient! I had fat transfer to my hips by dr cortes. Wear the foam board compression under your garment to smooth it out. Did he fat graft into your hips? Or did you have hips pre op?
How are you feeling now? I have my sx date end of this month I'm so nervous

Is it normal?

Is it normal to feel more tightness in one butt implant ? When I walk it still feels tight and painfull how long before the stiffness goes away??

From reading so many reviews, I think it is very normal. One side always tends to feel more painful then the other.
The first 2 weeks they feel very tight and stiff. Don't worry you will see how everything eventually heals and looks better. First 10 days are the worst. Wishing you a fast recovery!

don't stress the waist is still swollen you will drive yourself crazy if you don't give it time
Ok Thank You I will try to be more patient.
You'll have swelling for a couple of months....I'm two weeks postop and still have swelling on the top of my butt....once that goes down you'll see more defintion in your butt!!!! Good luck.... I went to Cortes as well and I'm very pleased!!!!
I don't have any fat on top of implant so it looks like My butt is saggin
Don't stress just yet...it's still early....wearing the garment should help as well...when do you go for your postop???
