Are 400-550 cc too big?
Choosing implants (and even the surgery)
Feb 6, 2019
Good morning!Great question and here are some quick answers1) there is NO industry standard on bra cup sizes. 5 bras at 5 different stores all with the same letter and number could mean 5 different bras, no two are alike, and none fit!2) try to present your surgeon with a look you are trying to achieve and then work together to figure out which operation (aug vs aug masto) and which implant (size, fill material etc) is going to get you closest to that look3) how “big” you look to the wor…
Will insurance pay to fix diastasis recti?
Recurrent Pneumonia
Jan 28, 2019
Hello. Youre on the wrong website. If you have truly have pneumonia 4 x in the last year – the diastasis is the least of your worries. Truly – You need to see a board certified specialist to understand why you suffer recurrent pneumonias before considering an elective (and likely cosmetic) procedure.Good luck!
How can you reduce the size of your mons pubis?
Mons pubis reduction (monsplasty)
Jan 28, 2019
Great question. In the absence of pictures – 1) identify the problem. Is it just excess fat, or excess skin, or both? Is it longstanding lymphedema or swelling from some other cause2) based on the problem, now create a surgical plan to address:fat: liposuction or direct excisionskin: direct excision – either to lift, narrow, or both.Seek out a board certified member of ASPS / ASAPS for your consultationGood luck
What are 3 most important criteria for identifying the plastic surgeon with expertise in fa
Choosing a surgeon
Jan 28, 2019
This is a GREAT question – really and truly. Here are some important considerations I’d like you to think about before reading my answer.1) What makes a great surgeon for one person may not translate to a great surgeon for you. We all like to publish our best results and best reviews but truly it has to be a dynamic fit.2) A great artist can make multiple “drafts” of their piece before getting the final masterpiece. A sculptor can pass over many inferior stones before they identify the p…
Should I get lipo or CoolSculpting for my bulky underarms?
Liposuction vs energy device (insert device name here) for arms
Jan 28, 2019
Hello!Thank you for your question. To give a better answer – we’d need to know your BMI and see pictures but IN GENERAL – the best approach to any plastic surgery problem is to identify what the issues are. For the arms, is it SKIN LAXITY or EXCESS, is it FAT EXCESS, or both? A procedure (any procedure) that just targets one of those is unlikely to give a satisfactory result. Energy devices typically fall well short of surgery (liposuction) and often require multiple treatments to app…
Would a “mini” lift suffice in my case until I am ready to have a mommy makeover?
Breasts and Pregnancy
Dec 10, 2018
Truly – if youre concerned about how your breasts will change during and after pregnancy – wait until youre done having children. If, however, having children is years away – then consider how much your breasts (and their shape, position, etc) bother you.I think if youre on the cusp of having kids – might as well wait but if they are only a dream away – then perhaps more thought in terms of the timing of surgery. Once you work on the timing, then dont settle for a lesser procedure just b…
Am I a good candidate for labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty
Dec 10, 2018
1) Have your labia ever bothered you?2) Prior to your (hopefully soon to be ex-spouse’s) comments – have you ever considered something you want changed with your labia?If the answer to 1 and 2 is no – then pass. That said – labiaplasty comes in many forms. I prefer a technique described by Dr Alter using offsetting triangles (or wedges). I believe it preserves the edge sensation and allows for changes in multiple vectors simultaneously. We routinely perform this in the office with simple l…
Scared for boob job scars. Should I put getting my breasts done out my head?
Scars
Nov 29, 2018
No such thing as surgery without scars but the question is – are you willing to trade scars (which may not appear the way you want them to) for the look in clothing, bathing suits, dresses, etc that you want?It’s that simple.Seek out a board certified member of ASPS / ASAPS for your consultation and work
Do I have realistic expectations?
Managing Expectations
Nov 24, 2018
Good morning and thank you for your question and picture. A significant portion of what we do as Aesthetic surgeons is (or should be) managing patient’s expectations about their outcomes. I will often tell my patients the following “one – liners” :1. Everyone asks to look “natural.” National Geographic is natural! Before your first surgery – is natural! Now let’s look at what you want to look like to what changes you’d like to make.2. I’m going to try to make you the best version of you …
Is liposuction enough for my stomach or would I need a tummy tuck too?
Tummy tuck or just lipo
Nov 8, 2018
People come for evaluation for 3 typical reasons1. Excess fat2. Excess skin3, muscle weakness or separationTypically liposuction alone will only address the excess fat – only surgery can address muscle weakness and excess skin**Yes – you may see “some” skin retraction with liposuction alone but this depends on your age, collagen content, skin elasticity, etcThe BEST way to get an answer to your question is to visit with a board certified member of ASPS / ASAPS.Good luck!
Is it safe to travel in a car after a tummy tuck and BBL?
Long travel following big surgery
Oct 28, 2018
It’s not so much a question of safety for you – but rather how to do it? I’m assuming you chose to travel for surgery and / or your care team (ie family) lives far away? In either situation – you need to travel following your procedure. A TT and BBL is a fairly big case. You made the comment about protecting fat grafts so you’re aware of that risk. In general – here are some thoughts:Risks of travel following surgeryGetting carsick, putting pressure on wounds / incisions, putting pressure…
What are the different profiles for Allergan? What does SCX mean, is it a narrow implant?
Breast implant sizing
Oct 23, 2018
1. Find a board certified member of ASPS/ASAPS for an in personal consultation2. Have a sense of the look you are trying to achieve (bring pictures from the internet of women with similar body types and breasts you like the look of)3. Allergan has 3 lines of implants: SR, SS, and SC. Each line refers to how cohesive the implant material is and has nothing to do with narrow wide etc as each implant line comes in a variety of both widths and heights4. We use a 3D imaging system, VECTRA, to…
Is the 24 hours breast implant recovery technique trustworthy?
24 hour recovery surgery? Sure Sure….
Oct 22, 2018
There are few if any surgical insults that the body can recover from in 24 hours. Even a good size paper cut still stings a bit the next day? So the likelihood of someone recovering 24 hours after breast augmentation seems unlikely. Typically our patients walk the night of surgery and easy back into full physical activity over the next 5-6 weeks (some can go faster but I’ve yet to figure out how to rush biology)….I suspect there might be an * next to this claim**As in there’s likely some…
What’s the Best Procedure for Wrinkled Aging Arms?
Upper arm saggy skin
Oct 22, 2018
Hello!! Thanks for the question! Loose hanging skin – especially in the arms following weight loss or just age related changes – is a fairly common concern.Let’s break the concerns down into the following catagoriesCONTOUR and SKIN POSITION: surgery – brachioplasty to address loose, excess skinFAT?: liposuctionSKIN QUALITY: chemical peel, retin-A, micro needling, etc. Seek out a board certified member of ASPS / ASAPS for your consultation and good luck!
I wanted to know if I can get an Alar base reduction since I like my nose just wanted to ma
Not so fast…..(Alar base reduction)
Oct 22, 2018
Great questions and thanks for your pictures.The nose lives in harmony with the rest of the facial features and the alar base needs to live in harmony with the rest of the nose. Is your dorsal (bridge) too low? Does the tip sit where you want it to? Are you worried about outside visible scars?You might have some very reasonable concerns but I think you need to have a formal visit with a board certified member of ASPS / ASAPS to discuss what you want and then how to get there.good luck!
