Thanks! My top choices were Dr Cortes, Dr Miami and Dr Curves lol so for me it came down to what was more convenient.. I didn't want to be in another state then have to (maybe) wait weeks to be cleared to fly back home so Dr Cortes it was BUT they all have AMAZING results

You look great, this price does it also include the anesthetic and hospital fees because I'm looking to have a TT as well in the summer when school gets out.

Yes all that was included, but I got an extended TT so if you're just getting a regular one the price may be lower

UPDATED FROM Alishia10

Finally done (1day post op)

Alishia10February 6, 2015
Sooo my surgery was set for 6:30am yesterday (5/5/2014) and was on time.. Dr Cortes came in to mark me at around 6am, at around 6:20am they started the IV and anesthesia.. Thats all I remember lol. I woke up at 1:50pm but fell right back asleep, then woke back up at 3:30pm.. They wanted me to walk around a little bit but that wasnt going to happen because I was extremely dizzy and nauseated.. I left the hospital at around 4:45pm and after getting home I went back to sleep. I must say it is painful but not horrible pain, my back is numb from the lipo and where I received my tummy tuck it is numb as well, my arms feel fine and where they injected fat in my hip are pretty hard right now. Hopefully by tomorrow my dizzy spells will subside and ill be able to take some pics.
