Question

Answer Snippet
What type of compression garment should I order??
tummy tuck and compression garments
Feb 23, 2015
Compression garments should be used with caution after tummy tuck. In performing a tummy tuck, a flap is created, and the flap has compromised (less) circulation. If a compression garment is placed on a flap that already has comprised circulation, then the extra pressure can cut off the blood supply. If the blood supply is cut off, this will result in wound complications. Compression garments may also contribute to “abdominal compartment syndrome” (increased pressure…
Is an A cup to full C, small D unrealistic?
A to D
Feb 23, 2015
First, it is important to understand that cup size is subjective. Because cup size may vary with each manufacturer, it is difficult to use cup size as an accurate guide pre-operatively. It is more accurate to consider breast size with breast sizers (sample implants), which can be placed in the bra before surgery.An important consideration when choosing implant size is that amount of native breast tissue. If the breast tissue is very thin, larger implants can cause problems…
Breast Augmentation – How long does it take to recover?

Mastopexy?Augmentation?
Jan 27, 2015
As with many plastic surgery procedures, the choice of a procedure or procedures depends highly upon the patients goals and preferences.If you want to minimize scarring, the you should consider avoiding a breast lift.If you simply want more breast volume, then a breast augmentation alone may suffice.If you want lift and more volume, the you should consider a lift and and augmentation.Your goals and desires help the surgeon make a specific recommendations for procedure(s). A physical…
Breast Lift: Are lifts permanent?
breast lift permanent?
Jan 27, 2015
Are breast lifts permanent?Great question.Yes and No.Yes. Your appearance will always be better than you would have appeared without surgery. In this sense breast lift is “permanent”.No. Breast lift does not stop the aging process. Breasts will continue to age after breast lift so additional surgery may be desired by the patient. It is unlikely that additional surgery would be “needed”, meaning a medical necessity (painful scars, late excessive growth of the…
Why do surgeons outside of the U.S. do a way more aggressive tummy tuck?
aggressive tummy tuck
Jan 27, 2015
The final results of any procedure are highly dependent on the preoperative condition. Ideal results cannot be obtained in all patients. In order to get a “very flat tummy” the patient must have very minimal visceral fat (fat on the inside around the organs). In this circumstance, a “very flat tummy” can be achieved without overly aggressive surgery. It is difficult or impossible to overcome excessive visceral fat with a surgical procedure.One definition of aggressive…
What is Tummy Tuck recovery like?
after tummy tuck
Jan 27, 2015
The recovery after tummy tuck varies widely. Many patients can return to daily living activities the day after surgery. Many patients can resume full activities after 3 to 4 weeks.Most patients have minimal discomfort after tummy tuck with the use or oral pain medicine. My patients will take pain medicine for a few days after surgery. Most will not need any pain medicine after the 2 week time frame.Disclaimer: The most accurate medical advice requires a complete…
Tummy Tuck: Does swelling after cause weight gain?
swelling after tummy tuck
Jan 27, 2015
Swelling after tummy tuck can cause temporary weight gain.Much of the swelling will resolve in weeks, and the final resolution of swelling may take months.Disclaimer: The most accurate medical advice requires a complete history and physical with a personal consultation. This is rendered only as general information and is not medical advice. Medical advice can only be obtained by personal contact with a qualified professional. This response does not establish a physician patient relationship.
I need a full tummy tuck. Is it likely to cut off some of my tattoo?
tattoo removed
Jan 27, 2015
Yes.Partial or complete removal of tattoos during tummy tuck is not uncommon.When this occurs many patients will simply get a tattoo “repair” after the healing period.Disclaimer: The most accurate medical advice requires a complete history and physical with a personal consultation. This is rendered only as general information and is not medical advice. Medical advice can only be obtained by personal contact with a qualified professional.

What breast surgery would be the best for me?
breast sagging
Jan 27, 2015
A breast lift is the appropriate procedure for your situation. Breast augmentation is also a reasonable consideration.There are two general approaches to breast implants and breast lift. These procedures can be combined (done at the same time). The procedures can also be “staged”, meaning done at different times. Many surgeons prefer to “stage” these operations. In my practice, I prefer to perform the breast lift first, and then perform the breast augmentation…

lift augmentation
Jan 27, 2015
Tissue loss is a known risk with combined augmentation/lift surgery. After the wounds heal, the implants can be replaced and the asymmetry minimized. Scar revisions can also be performed at that time if needed.Disclaimer: The most accurate medical advice requires a complete history and physical with a personal consultation. This is rendered only as general information and is not medical advice. Medical advice can only be obtained by personal contact with a qualified professional….
Surgeon recommends a under wire bra immediately after breast augmentation. Is it safe?
underwire bra
Jan 27, 2015
There is no hard and fast rule regarding bras after breast augmentation surgery.I prefer for my patients to wear a sports bra in the period just after surgery. My concern is that the wire area could be uncomfortable directly on the incision or cause a wound problem.However, if your surgeon has used this protocol with good success, then follow his/her instructions.Disclaimer: The most accurate medical advice requires a complete history and physical with a personal consultation. This is…
Breast implants or not? I have been battling with this question for years. I am 45yo 5’4″ 1
Should I get implants
Jan 27, 2015
The decision to get breast implants is best based on an understanding of accurate information. There are many factors to consider when choosing implant style, filler material, incision sites, and size. These decisions will depend in large part on your specific goals. Make an appointment with a qualified Plastic surgeon, clearly state your goals, and then he/she can asset you in making your decisions.
What are the practical differences I’d experience switching from saline to “gummy bear” imp
implant questions
Sep 30, 2014
Saline breast implants can show wrinkling, especially when under filled. If your implants are under filled then simply adding saline may help the problem. The wrinkling is more visible in patients with a thin breast plate. Wrinkling can also occur with silicone filled implants. The position of the implants when lying down is more related to the pocket shape than the filler material. Silicone (current generation) implants are a relatively new product compared to saline…
3.5 weeks post op Tummy Tuck, does this look normal?
tummy tuck question
Sep 30, 2014
From the images it appears that there is some skin loss on the right lower abdomen. This can occur as a known complication after tummy tuck. I suggest that you take your wife back to the surgeon for wound care. If there are any systemic signs of infection (fever, nausea and vomiting) then the problem should be treated aggressively. The area of concern appears to be limited and conservative care may solve the problem. One treatment for this problem after…
