Drainless tummy tuck... Are there extra risks?
No Drain Tummy Tuck is the way to go!
Sep 21, 2018
Like anything else, your mileage may vary, but I and my patients have been very happy with the no drain tummy tuck.  I have been using the no drain technique for all of my tummy tucks since 2008, and I highly recommend it.I have only used the suture technique, and have not had any experience using the glue technique.  The suture technique (the way I do it) probably adds about 30 - 45 minutes to the length of the procedure.  I place up to 40 or 50 separate sutures to eliminate the space wher...
Will these labiaplasty bumps resolve with time and is it okay that I still have stitches left in? 3.5
Bumpiness is expected along the suture line after only a few weeks following labiaplasty
Sep 21, 2018
There are several ways to close a labiaplasty, but when continuous sutures are used for the outer layer, some bumpiness is expected in the weeks following surgery.  Regarding the sutures, you should definitely follow your surgeon's advice, and not pull them out unless your surgeon told you to.  Although suture marks are always possible when any incision is closed, the bumpiness you are seeing this early is not suture marks, but rather some swelling shaped by the sutures.So, follow your s...
Do I need to get my vagina fixed again?
Visit your surgeon for advice on managing results of labiaplasty
Sep 21, 2018
Sorry you are having trouble.  Unfortunately, the situation you describe cannot be fully evaluated without a visit to your surgeon.  That is especially so because you are having pain.  Your best bet would be to see your own surgeon again, but if that is not possible, or you are not sure you trust what your surgeon is saying or just want to hear it from someone else, you may benefit from a second opinion from another surgeon.  In any case, visit an experienced and competent labiaplasty sur...
3 months for sutures to dissolve? 3 weeks post and my body is spitting them out.
Absorbable sutures can take quite a while to completely dissolve
Sep 21, 2018
Thanks for your question.  Absorbable sutures are one of the great advancements of surgery, and modern semi-synthetic sutures can be significantly stronger and last significantly longer than old-fashioned "catgut" sutures did.  Indeed, some absorbable sutures can have strength that lasts up to six months, and any absorbable suture will still be present even after it has lost its strength, until the body finally absorbs it.Obviously, I don't know what sutures were used in your surgery, but ...
Permanent suture in nipple or something else? Help!
Gore-Tex suture used to keep areola from spreading in circumareolar mastopexy
Sep 21, 2018
Thanks for your question.  I think the procedure note answers your question: Although the note is not completely clear, it appears that your surgeon did a circumareolar mastopexy, which only uses an incision around the areola.  Unfortunately, one of the problems with that procedure is that it tends to stretch out and enlarge the areola.  In an attempt to prevent that, surgeons doing that procedure will often place a permanent suture all the way around the areola, although usually it is place...
Tummy Tuck or Lower Body Lift?
Body lift vs. Tummy Tuck after weight loss
Aug 15, 2016
Thank you for posting your photographs, and congratulations on losing the weight!  Certainly, I would recommend you speak with an experienced plastic surgeon, certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.  However, from the photographs, it does appear that you would get significantly more improvement from a circumferential abdominoplasty or lower body lift than you would from an anterior abdominoplasty alone.If you only have the anterior abdominoplasty, it is predictable that you w...
Bruising under eye after Botox and should ice be used before and after injecting Botox?
Bruising can occur after BOTOX(R) or other injections around the eyes
Aug 15, 2016
It is important to recognize the limitations of BOTOX or other products injected around the eyes.  I often hear of injectors, especially non-physician ones, telling patients that BOTOX will "lift" or "open" the eyes.  However, BOTOX can never do anything other than temporarily weaken or paralyze the muscle it is used to treat.  The only way it can cause lifting anything is by weakening a muscle that is pulling that thing downward.  In very limited circumstances, therefore, a little elevat...
2 weeks post tummy tuck fleur de lis, is this a good healing scar?
Scar healing after tummy tuck takes time
Aug 15, 2016
Thank you for posting your photograph.  Of course, your surgeon is the best source of information about the course of healing, I do not see anything in this photograph that would make me concerned about a wound healing problem.  There is some crusting along the incision lines, which is  certainly normal, and a little redness along the incisions, but limited to a short distance from the incision, which is also normal.Things to watch for would include redness spreading beyond the area of the...
Lift without removing 3 year old under muscle implants.
Breast lift can be done without disturbing breast implants, depending on the positioning of the implants
Aug 15, 2016
It is certainly quite common for a breast lift to be done without disturbing breast implants; indeed, some surgeons would say that it is preferred to do the breast implant placement at one surgery, and the breast lift at another.However, it matters where the implants are positioned.  If the implants are subglandular (that is, superficial to the pectoralis major muscle), there is a greater chance of exposing and/or damaging the implants while doing the lift.  Also, subglandular implants ma...
Does this type of incision look normal at all?
Concern about appearance of incision at almost one month after surgery
Jul 19, 2016
Thank you for your message, and for posting the photographs.It is very common for patients to be concerned about the appearance of surgery even very early after surgery.  After you have gone through all of the inconvenience and expense of a major procedure, it is natural that you would want to see the final result quickly.  The "emotional roller-coaster" is often particularly severe at the three to four week time frame.  At that point, you have been dealing with the surgery for a while, and...
Had BA in November. 250cc under muscle. I now have symmastia. Can I get bigger implants when I have i
Larger breast implants with correction of symmastia?
May 12, 2016
Thanks for posting your photograph, which shows what appears to be symmastia very clearly.  Although I don't know if it applies in your case, symmastia most often results when the surgeon, in an attempt to improve cleavage, releases some of the tissue at the inner part of the breast.  No matter how carefully this is done, it weakens the tissue and increases the risk of symmastia developing, even if it was not present right after surgery, and even if the muscle was not completely divided.  ...
Update - dent in breast 8 days post op. Will this get worse?
Dent in breast, bruising, and fluid sensation eight days after breast augmentation with drains after surgery abroad

Based on your previous post, where you mentioned you woke up with a lot of pain, as well as with drains, and developed some bruising, it seems likely to me that there were problems with your surgery that your surgeon did not discuss with you.Unfortunately, although having surgery abroad is tempting because the cost may be less, you now have a significant problem, because you now need evaluation, and possibly treatment, by your surgeon.  The simple fact is that you don't have the same ...
I'm 9 weeks post op and still have no cleavage. Will this improve?
Want more cleavage nine weeks after breast augmentation with textured silicone implants
May 12, 2016
Thanks for posting your photos.  At nine weeks after surgery, it is certainly likely that there will be more changes.  It looks from your photos that the implants are still somewhat high and full on the top.Textured silicone implants have less likelihood of settling or moving, although it probably matters which manufacturer's texturing you have, since some manufacturers' texturing is more textured than other manufacturers'.You should discuss the situation with your surgeon, but don't be s...
Vibration and noises in breast after implant. Will this hurt me if it doesn't go away?

My PS didn't do my inner thighs as requested. What can I do about it?
Inner thighs looks the same at 12 days after liposuction
May 12, 2016
It's hard to tell from your photos, but 12 days is far too early to be evaluating the result from liposuction.  At 12 days, there certainly would be swelling.It is hard to know from your question whether you are saying that she didn't treat that area at all, or just that you don't have as much of a result as you expected.  If your surgeon treated the area but you don't see enough of a result yet, I recommend you continue wearing the garment, and review this with your surgeon in another m...
