Tummy tuck or liposuction?
tummy tuck vs lipo
Jan 7, 2019
Hello,I think you would do well with 360 lipo and although you may have some loose skin, it can be addressed in the future. You may not need that surgery depending on how your skin reacts.Best to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to evaluate your needs.Best,
Sunken mid-face after weight loss. Do I need a facelift? I’m only 27.
facelift?
Dec 14, 2018
You definitely do NOT need a facelift. You would benefit however from volume enhancement of some sort. Fillers are a great option and certainly easy, but you may also consider fat grafting which can give a long term volume enhancement as well.All the best,
What can I do for a lipo seroma that has come back?
post lipo seroma
Dec 6, 2018
This is an unusual problem following liposuction but can occur. At this point, serial aspirations may be the best solution. If there is more than a nominal (30cc or so) amount of fluid, you want to remove the fluid. 
Do I need a lift or can implants alone lift my breasts?
breast lift
Nov 28, 2018
Hello,It appears from the photos that you would likely benefit from a lift with or without implants. that would depend on whether you wanted additional volume or not. your breasts are naturally wide apart and your nipples are centered in the breast mound. be careful wanting them closer as this may make the entire breast look less “normal”. find a few board certified plastic surgeons in your area and consult to determine the best choices.lifting alone shouldnt change the breast feeding …
2 weeks post lower bleph, festoon or malaria bag?
post lower lid bleph
Nov 28, 2018
Hi,it appears that you are healing well given only 2 weeks from LLB and fat transfer. although i am not sure to what extent the surgery entailed, you are really in the early stages of healing.from the photos at least there appears to be nice improvement in the pre-op concerns; as you heal and swelling reduces, you may notice areas that stand out more. this could be related to loss of the fat as time goes. your surgeon will advise you of how you are progressing and discuss with you options …
I had a tummy tuck. Can someone help with this pudginess when I’m sitting?
pudgy tummy tuck
Nov 28, 2018
Hi,it is likely that you still have a fair amount of swelling, especially since it has only been one month and also because it is the most dependent portion of the surgical area (tends to stay swollen longer).That being said, I would give it time to resolve, but sometimes a bit of lipo will help after everything has healed (maybe 6 months or more).continue following your surgeon’s recs and visits.best,
What Kind of Doctor Should I See for Lipoma Removal?
large lipoma removal
Nov 25, 2018
Many doctors can do this procedure, but plastic surgeons have the most experience and will pay closer attention to limiting the scar formation than most other specialties. However, look for board-certified surgeons in you area to discuss. This is usually a minor procedure in the office.
I had reduction. Almost 1/2 of the areola is black and there is no nipple sensation. Any tho
nipple healing
Oct 28, 2018
Hello,It appears that you have some bruising and swelling around the breast in general, but the NAC is viable appearing in the photo. I think that your PS is following closely and having you apply NTPaste is a good thing and I would stay in close contact. As for sensation, this often takes a bit of time to come back, but again, it’s early and you are swollen.Best of luck,
6 weeks post and my next appointment is in 6 weeks. Is the pubic swelling normal? Should I a
tummy tuck swelling
Oct 5, 2018
Hello,this period is the time when most swelling is there and starts to subside. however, if you are noticing more than normal or it seems lilke fluid may have collected, visit with your surgeon and see. the worst case is you have a short visit. all the best,
If left to heal naturally will my breast look ok after it’s healed?
reduction/mastectomy
Oct 3, 2018
Hello,there is an obvious issue with the blood supply and this is why healing is so poor. this can be an issue if you are thinking about NSM when you have the mastectomy. although you are pressed to move on, this will take time and you must be patient.discuss and follow closely with your PS so that you have all the information.all the best,
24 year old, breastfed a baby for a year. Extreme sag, 32H, want breast lift. What are my op
breast lift
Oct 3, 2018
Hello,i think a breast lift will be a great solution to your woes and provide you will a well-positioned breast even if you plan future pregnancies.visit with you BC PS to discuss scars and such and move forward from there.best,
Is this double bubble and could it be fixed with fat grafting vs a more invasive surgery? (P
double bubble?
Oct 3, 2018
Hello,it appears that there is a discrepancy between the breast demarcation and the implant position which would typically be considered a “double-bubble”. however, i would question that if the implant was positioned at the upper line where the breast ends, that this would actually be too high and wonder if that was where the breast was initially or not? pre-op pictures may help as well. however, an in-person visit with your surgeon will be the best solution. I think fat grafting may be a…
Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck?
Tummy Tuck?
Oct 3, 2018
Hello,It’s too bad about your previous surgery and outcomes. it doesn’t appear that you have a significant amount of excess skin for a tummy tuck, but the only way to know is an in-person consultation with a BC PS in your area. There are some new techniques and technology on the market now that may help but a good detailed visit will answer most of those questions.Best,
Areola opened after 4 weeks of breast implants and areola reduction. Is it spitting stitches
incision opening
Oct 3, 2018
Hello,I am sorry for your delayed healing issues. It does not appear that there is an active infection or worse, so that’s good. The problem is that for some reason you may be reacting to the sutures and their strength is gone, thereby allowing the incision to open. Unfortunately, there is not much to do, but on occasion, one might open it all up, clean the tissue and resuture with a different material.The best thing to do is stay in close contact with your PS so that it can be addressed…
Do I need lipo or TT?
Tummy tuck?
Sep 26, 2018
I think you could be a candidate for possible surgical and non-surgical options, but it’s best to visit in person. Find some board certified plastic surgeons in your area and go through some consultations to see what will work best. Happy hunting,
