Amazing results and I couldn’t recommend a better place to go to. They speak great English and Spanish. They go above and beyond with the care of there patients and I would highly recommend the platinum treatment it was 100 percent worth the money for the amazing results and I could not be any more happy. I wish I could give more then 5 stars

Dr. Cortes office is beautiful! His staff is extremely nice and professional and Dr. Cortes is a VERY gifted plastic surgeon. (he also speaks English very well) I had a revision rhinoplasty with rib grafting and I couldn't be happier with my initial results. Dr. Cortes is very realistic in his promises during initial consultation and then surprised me with amazing results. 2 weeks after surgery, with swelling, and my nose already looks 100x better than before. Dr. Cortes' ability to reconstruct my nose with the very difficult procedure of using rib grafts to rebuild, balance, shape and refine my nose is a very difficult procedure and takes an artistic eye with a very experienced, skilled hand. Dr. Cortes is as good or better than any top plastic surgeon in the United States but the surgery cost more than 3x LESS than any quote I could get in the U.S.. I HIGHLY recommend the Jose Cortes Institute. This is the perfect place to trust for your "medical holiday". :)

I want to say thank you so much to all crew for such attention and support 24/7 during such a delicate time. I did bleforoplastica and brows lifting and want to say that doctor Cortes is super accurate and professional, all stitches he made were so accurate and almost invisible since first day of operation. Post operation time was also fast and smooth. He did my eyes looking exactly how it was 10-15 years ago ! I’m super happy and definitely will back one day 🫶
