Im 31 years old and have decided to… Im 31 years old and have decided to pull the trigger on a BA. I found this website to be extremely helpful when trying to determine what sizes to discuss with my PS. Therefore, I want to share my stats, before, and after with the community here. So, as mentioned, I’m 31. 5’3” tall and 120 lbs

If someone would have shown me pictures… If someone would have shown me pictures with my body two weeks after the hourglass tummy tuck I would have said I am never getting surgery in my life. There is no sugar coating this, it looked terrible. I was so bruised and swollen my husband was afraid to touch me anywhere. I had bruises even in areas that were not treated during surgery and I was swollen even down there. The doctor said it is called fupa (fat upper pubic area). Well, mine looked like it just eaten a kitten. I didn’t know what to do and each time I called the doctor he said it will subside, nothing to worry about, put some ice on it. Each time, the same thing, that I have to be patient, magic doesn’t happen over night. At this point I wasn’t waiting for magic, I would have been happy just to get my old body back and get rid of all the swelling and bruising. It was after two months that my body started to look better. I looked online and most women don’t have so much swelling after three weeks. For me it was like getting worse and worse until it started to disappear. After three months I was ok, not so freaked out anymore. But even when the tummy and the waist started to look better, down there things were the same. It looked fat, but the doctor said it is just swelling. I didn’t understand how it could be swollen only there, Dr. Cortes insisted I give it a bit more time and if in a few months I’m still not ok with how it is, he can do a bit of lipo there too. In the end it was mostly swelling, I didn’t get the lipo procedure because I didn’t want to risk getting all swollen again. Now that I had it and I see my flat tummy, and small waist and I see that my husband looks at me like he’d eat me, I think it was all worth it. But when I think at the pain and the swelling, and how I thought it will never go away and I’ll be like this for good, I don’t think I’d have the courage to go through it over again.

Before having my consultation with dr Before having my consultation with dr. Cortes I always thought that plastic surgery is not for real people with real jobs, and real husband and real kids and responsibilities and a limited budget that stretches thin at the end of each month. I though it is just like trips to Europe, something that only a few can afford and enjoy, and I didn’t feel like a part of that group. This was until my younger sister, who financially was in a much darker place than us, got her new B with dr. Cortes. I was like wow, this is not possible, where did you get the money and wow. I wowed for a whole week before I understood that now plastic surgery is kinda affordable, if you find a good plastic surgeon and you plan it right and it can do wonders for the self-esteem. A few months after the surgery my sister landed her dream job out of nowhere, like literally out of nowhere and we couldn’t place it on anything else but her change of attitude and her new found self confidence. My husband supported me and told me I should go for it and get rid of the pregnancy marks that were left on my body and I went in full force. Dr. Cortes is really good and he said that lipo on the lower back will also make my buttocks look bigger, which is something I always wanted. I got the hourglass tummy tuck with him and some lipo on the back and now I look incredible. In perspective, the surgery was definitely not cheap and I would have never be able to afford it if I’d have to pay it up straight, but with the payment plans presented I found something that we could afford and got it.

I did it I did it! I just had my wonder breast augmentation with doctor Cortes two days ago! It was an amazing experience and I am surprised every day by how the process evolves and by my look! I was always so self-aware because of the lack of boobs and always felt inadequate and not feminine enough. I became being more and more shy and avoided any situations when I should have been in charge, even at work, or at my kids school. There were days when I was thinking I could do so much more, but when it came down to it, I rarely did anything at all. I just didn’t feel right and I was always trying to hide myself in the background so other people won’t see how inadequate I am. And it was all my breasts. I remember being such a happy child and teenager until it started to happen. Every one of my friends was growing boobs but not me. And when it was obvious that it is not going to happen for me, I started to shy away. My parents thought it is just teenage hormones, young adults, things like this. I tried once to talk to my mom but she didn’t understand my struggle. I was so busy with hiding that I didn’t even think there are solutions for my issues until some time ago. It was actually my mother in law that started a conversation about a nice of hers that had the breast augmentation surgery and how much it changed her and now she has a new job and a new partner and it is difficult to recognize her. This is when it hit me that I need to do exactly the same. I asked my mother in law to ask her nice all the details about the doctor and how much was it and I contacted doctor Cortes as soon as I got his details. It is funny now to think that I started reading about him only after I had my consultation already scheduled, but I never regretted my decision, not for one minute. About three months after the consultation I had the surgery paid for in full and I was ready to go under the knife, which I did with a mix of anxiety and excitement. Now I am recovering and happier than I’ve ever been. My breasts are so big and so high on the chest wall, sometimes I feel that it is not me anymore! But then I remember it is me, just a more courageous me. I can’t tell you much about the recovery, I just started to get off the bed more after two days of mostly sleeping. The pain is not easy to endure, but I know it is all worth it.
