Can extended tummy tuck be avoided bt working out and losing weight before my surgery?
Jun 21, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question and photos. Losing weight before surgery might change your shape a bit, but will not address the excess skin in your love handle area. Excess skin in that area will create a bulge. Your Plastic Surgeon is probably proposing to extend the scar to remove the excess skin, which would give you a better result than just Liposuction of that area. It is best to go with his or her recommendation. I hope this was helpful to you...
Could this be an allergic reaction after my breast augmentation a month ago?
Could this be an allergic reaction after my breast augmentation a month ago?
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. It does appear that you are having an allergic reaction. It is possible that it was from the surgical glue, or what you were using to cover your incision. Sometimes lotions, soap/bodywash, or laundry detergent can cause a reaction like this. I would use Benadryl as directed on the package and follow up with your Plastic Surgeon when their office opens. Good luck.
Best Wishes,
-Dr. B.

Can a 10 pound weight change affect the outcome of a mommy makeover?
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. I do not think it will change your outcome at all. You should be absolutely fine. Wait until after Surgery to lose the remaining 10 pounds. You will of course have to wait until you are fully healed to resume exercise (usually a month or two). Do not go on a strict diet right before or right after Surgery, as this can be dangerous to your body. Follow your Surgeon's recommendations for pre-op and post-operative...

Want to do something to address the tired and aging look of my eyes and have gotten conflicting opinions from doctors. Thoughts?
Jan 31, 2019
I must tell you that nothing replaces an in-person consultation. From your photos, I would recommend an upper and lower blepharoplasty. The upper blepharoplasty would address the excess skin (and minimal fat) on your upper lids. The lower blepharoplasty would address the excess skin and fat on your lower lids, which creates the appearance of undereye bags. This is what makes you constantly look tired. I would not recommend c02 laser for this...

Why is my swelling becoming worse 10 weeks after rhinoplasty? My doctor has no answer
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. Swelling in the nose after a Rhinoplasty can take up to a year to resolve. You may find that you swell more when you are extremely active. It is normal to see swelling come and go at this point. Try to limit exercise during this time period when you are experience such significant swelling. Follow your Surgeons advice. It is hard, but you must be patient. I hope this information was helpful to you...

A rhinoplasty is supposed to harmonize the face so would Cheek fillers before a rhinoplasty alter the results?
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. I understand your concern. If you are worried about this, then it would be best for you to have facial fillers done after your Rhinoplasty. I personally do not think that using dermal fillers before a Rhinoplasty would alter the perception of what needed to be changed in the nose at all. But since it is a concern for you, you really should not have the fillers injected before your surgery. I hope this was helpful to you...
Post op bra wearing. I was told to wait until the 3rd week. Does this seem normal?
Post op bra wearing.
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. You should follow your Surgeon's advice. Not all Surgeons have the same post-operative instructions. I have my breast augmentation patients in a sports bra immediately following surgery to reduce swelling. There is no right answer, since most Surgeons utilize different surgical techniques. Since your Surgeon is the only one who knows exactly how your procedure was performed, you should most definitely follow his or...

Thoughts on getting a breast augmentation out of state? How long would I need to stay in Florida post surgery?
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. In case of any post-surgical complication, it is best to find a local Surgeon. If you did develop a complication, you might end up having to fly to Florida once a week or so for a while until you are fully healed. Other Surgeons do not usually take care of another Doctor's surgical complication, so finding a local Surgeon afterwards would be very difficult. If you do not mind going back and forth frequently if...

What is a rough estimate regarding total cost for a rhinoplasty, labiaplasty, and possible brow lift?
Jan 31, 2019
Thank you for sharing your question. Payment plans are not available for Plastic Surgery. In order to finance surgery, you will need a credit card, or a medical financing card such as CareCredit or Alphaeon Credit. You pay your Surgeon in full with your credit card before surgery, and make payments to the credit card company. I hope this information is helpful to you.
Best Wishes,
Dr. B.
Do I have enough skin for a tummy tuck to pull down and remove my stretch marks?
Do I have enough skin for a tummy tuck to pull down and remove my stretch marks?
Oct 23, 2018
Thank you for sharing your question and photos. It seems like it is possible for most of your stretch marks to be removed, but not the highest portion above the navel. You probably will be left with that small section, but it will be pulled down to below your new navel. Sometimes the skin cannot be pulled as tight as we want it. Your Surgeon will perform your Tummy Tuck in a way that is safest, with optimal healing, so if you still have some stretch marks...

How much time should pass between lipo360 & an abdominoplasty?
Aug 21, 2018
Thank you for sharing your question. If you are going to separate these two surgeries, I recommend three months of healing time in between them. Please be sure to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for consultation.

What could be causing my belly button to be so red 5 months post tummy tuck?
What could be causing my belly button to be so red 5 months post tummy tuck?
Aug 21, 2018
Thank you for sharing your question and photos. The redness could just be the way that your scar is healing so far. Redness takes up to a year to fade from scars. Another possibility is an irritant. If you are using a scar care treatment, or any sort of topical therapy, you could be irritating your scar. Be sure to follow up with your Plastic Surgeon for an evaluation, as this is the best way to diagnose you. I hope this was helpful to you...
What can be done about this ridge from my tummy tuck scar?
What can be done about this ridge from my tummy tuck scar?
Aug 13, 2018
A scar revision would probably be best for you. Speak to your Plastic Surgeon about your concerns. Usually a scar revision can be done in-office under local anesthesia. Skin and fat should be removed in your case, in order to create a flatter appearance. I hope this was helpful to you.
Best Wishes,

I had a tummy tuck then on April 13th and I am 3 months out and I still have swelling.
Jul 19, 2018
Yes, swelling 3 months after a Tummy Tuck is expected. You will still see swelling come and go for another 3-6 months. When you are more active you will see more swelling. You should wear compression when you exercise, or are going to be walking for long periods for the next few months. I hope this was helpful to you.
Best Wishes,
Dr. B.
