Answer Snippet

Does High Profile or Moderate Plus profile give you a more natural look?

Moderate or HighProfile implant for a natural look
Sep 17, 2020

The profile of the implants depends on the look you want to achieve and the space on your chest for the "footprint " of the implant. Meet with a plastic surgeon and after a discussion of what you are looking for and an exam that includes your measurements, you can decide together what will be the best choice.

Deep plane face lift, upper and lower eyes, a mommy makeover no implants and liposuction on the upp

Multiple procedures at once
Sep 17, 2020

Sorry about your illnesses. That is for sure challenging and good for you for deciding that your illnesses will not define you!
Its a judgement call with your surgeon as to how many procedures can be safely done at once based on how many hours you would be in the OR and your physical severity of conditions and your health status.
Get a consultation and collaborate with your surgeon as to all the details to provide a safe and secure outcome.

P.S. an anti-inflammatory diet (strict) with...

Would I need an implant to not lose size?

Breast lifts and simultaneous implants
Jan 26, 2020

Thanks for providing photos. You have plenty of volume, just too much droop. You can maintain your size and get a lift and most likely not need implants to get the result of a fuller more perky breast.

Would a doctor perform both fat transfer to breasts and use saline implants for breast augmentation

Fat transplantation to the breast
Jan 26, 2020

It is possible to do the procedure you are considering if you have enough fat on your body to move. You need to have a full discussion of all the options before you choose a procedure and implant type. Do this with a reputable and experienced board certified plastic surgeon, preferably in your area and then you can make an informed decision that is customized and just right for you.

Firmness around incision lines under breast is much more firm at 5 weeks. Surgeon says it's scar ti

Scars after breast lift
Jan 26, 2020

Your scars will be at their thickest, tightest, and most red at about 6 weeks after surgery. This is called "peak reaction" and is normal and expected.You are proceeding just as recommended with massage and could add silicone gel sheets for night wear if you would like. I don't see anything in your photos that looks out of the ordinary and you can be reassured that your healing is right on track.

How severe is my gynecomastia? What is the recommended cosmetic option?

Gynecomastia surgical treatment
Nov 11, 2019

You have significant fullness of the breast area . How much is fatty tissue and how much is breast gland tissue can only be determined by examination. After the exam a recommendation can be made. Usually you would be treated thru small incisions located around the lower half of the colored skin of the nipple called the areola. Through this incision both fatty excess can be removed with a liposuction technique and "stringy" breast tissue can be cut out directly if there is a sign...

Would a breast lift with fat transfer be a viable option for me?

Breast Lift after weight loss
Oct 30, 2019

Congrats on losing weight and getting healthy!Hard to know if you could have a fat transfer in the future, especially after 20 more pounds of weight loss. If you breasts are too small afterwards, you may need an implant to achieve your desired size.Fat augmentation typically helps if you only need a modest amount of enlargement, also.Your breasts will likely change after childbirth so that needs to be considered.Your loose skin in areas near the breast may not tighten with breast lift, so...

Can I fix my tubular / tuberous breasts with fat grafting?

fat grafting and tuberous breasts
Oct 29, 2019

In selected instances fat grafting (if you have sufficient fat to graft) and radio-frequency (Renuvion or Bodytite) skin tightening can correct the deformity if it is mild. The best approach is to have an exam and the advice of an experienced surgeon specifically addressing your unique and particular situation.

I am very tall, 6’1” to be exact. Would 600 cc implants look natural?

height and implant size
Oct 29, 2019

Implant size is related to height and weight but also to the shape and width of your chest and the available skin.Ask your surgeon why he or she thinks it is the wrong size (too big) for you. Your surgeon may be concerned of creating a secondary deformity and is the only one who has actually examined you.

lipo combination areas
Feb 11, 2019

It is possible to do your full abdomen and inner and outer thighs all at one sitting, especially if you have a lower body mass index. You must otherwise be a good candidate for lipo as well.

Is it possible for me to get breast augmentation without a lift?

Breast lift or augmentation or both
Feb 5, 2019

I think you would be most pleased with your outcome if your breasts are reshaped with a "lift" and only if you want them larger as well do you need an augmentation. I think augmentation alone is unlikely to result in a pleasing result but an exam with a qualified and experienced surgeon and a frank discussion of your desires is the only way to know with best accuracy.All the best for a satisfying result!

Is it possible to have a standard tummy tuck incision extended to the flanks within 6 months of sta

Loose skin at flanks after tummy tuck
Feb 5, 2019

No tummy tuck addresses the flanks. You are too soon to have the lateral laxity addressed and likely you will need the laxity addressed all the way posterior, another procedure and different from a tummy tuck, extended or otherwise. Give the tissues time to heal.....9 to 12 months or more so everything can settle down and the swelling go away. Only then can residual skin laxity be assessed and a plan formulated.

Am I healing okay one day after my labiaplasty? Seems to be more blood and swelling.

What to expect after Labiaplasty
Feb 5, 2019

Swelling and bruising is common after labiaplasty, especially in the first few days and weeks. It will subside with rest (laying down) and sometimes coldpacks (not right against the skin).

I'm 5’5”, 112lbs: am I a candidate for a full tummy tuck?

fit and lax for tummy tuck
Feb 5, 2019

You have a lot of loose skin and some muscle weakness. A full tummy tuck will give you tight skin and some muscle tightening. You may need EMsculpt to tighten your muscle in addition after surgery depending on your outcome.The scar can likely be placed low in the center, but how low it can be to the sides depends on your skin laxity there. Buy your bikini after your surgery to hide the scar, not the other way around.
