Can a plastic surgeon feel scar tissue around your breast implants just from touching your b

Scar tissue evaluation
Jul 21, 2020

Thank you for your question. Yes, a board certified plastic surgeon can evaluate you during a consultation or follow up appointment to determine whether you are experiencing thickening of the breast capsule. Thickening of the breast capsule and subsequent constriction of the breast implant can contribute to patient discomfort, hardening, or distortion in the appearance of the breast(s) and is called a capsular contracture. Your surgeon may also send you for breast imaging (either...

Would an Axillary Breast Removal procedure also help lift the breast?

Axillary Breast Tissue Removal
Jul 21, 2020

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, an axillary breast procedure (either via direct excision or liposuction) will not also help to lift the breast and should be thought of as a separate surgical procedure. Oftentimes axillary breast tissue is a concern to breast surgery patients and can be addressed at the same time as a breast lift or breast reduction for example. If you are interested in learning more about your options, I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a board...

I was supposed to stop smoking for weeks before my BA. It is now in five days and I just sto

Smoking & Surgery
Jul 21, 2020

Thank you for your question. I would strongly recommend that you discuss your history of smoking and the fact that you only stopped smoking very recently with your board certified plastic surgeon. Smoking and use of nicotine containing products constricts the small blood vessels and can increase your risk for surgical complications - these complications can include poor healing, scarring, wound formation, etc. Each surgeon has their own specific recommendations when it comes to smoking...

Am I good candidate for an extended tummy tuck or a body lift?

Am I a good candidate?
Jul 13, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. If you are looking/planning on loosing some weight, I would encourage you to hold off on undergoing any elective cosmetic procedure until you are at a stable and maintainable goal weight. Without your height it is impossible to calculate your BMI, but it is always advisable that patients have a BMI of 30 or less to reduce your risk of complications post-operatively. From your photos you do appear to be a good candidate for a bilateral breast lift and...

Do I have tuberous breasts or just small breasts?

Do I have tuberous breasts?
Jul 13, 2020

Thank you for your question. From your photos you appear to have constricted breasts (I would not classify them as tuberous breasts) which could be addressed via a breast augmentation with small breast implant. I hope that this helps!

Will I need a lift also when I replace my implants? I got 440cc silicone implants 6 years ag

Breast Implant Revision with Lift
Jul 13, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. Looking at your photos it does appear as though you would likely require a breast lift to improve your overall breast shape. You can definitely exchange your implants if you are looking to go bigger, but a lift alone is also a possibility if you are happy with your current size. My concern though would be the pain that you are experiencing as it may be a sign of a capsular contracture. I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a board certifi...

What is recommended for my stomach and back? Is a tummy tuck my only solution?

Tummy Tuck with Liposuction
Jul 8, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. After evaluating the photo that you shared I believe that you would be best suited for a tummy tuck with some liposuction of your flanks. Unfortunately, I don't think that smart liposuction was the best surgical option for you - especially if your youngest is only 7 months old currently. Generally speaking, I prefer to wait at least 6 months before performing a body contouring procedure post-pregnancy/delivery. Waiting this period of time allows for ...

Under muscle silicone implant removal after 24 years - Where is the incision?

Implant Removal Incisions
Jun 29, 2020

Thank you for your question. The incision to be utilized for your explant will be determined by the preferences of your surgeon. Most board certified plastic surgeons avoid using the axillary incision for both implants and explants, and if you are proceeding with a breast lift it would make sense to utilize those incisions so as to not increase the amount of scarring. You might also want to discuss the possibility of having a breast lift at the same time as your explant - if possible. ...

How will I know when my silicone implants need to be taken out or redone? I’ve had them for

Implant Removals/Exchanges
Jun 29, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. If you have silicone gel implants (FDA approved and implanted within the US by a board certified plastic surgeon), there is no need to replace them unless you are having an issue with them or would like to go bigger/smaller. I believe that the conversation about replacing breast implants stemmed from the warranties offered by the various implant manufacturers.If you are concerned that there might be an issue or compromise of your implants it would be pr...

Breast Reduction
Jun 29, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. I perform many breast reductions and work with insurance companies often and it is always a difficult discussion with patients when it comes to insurance requirements for amount of tissue removed to obtain medical necessity coverage. It is difficult to say with any certainty what cup size you would be after a 400g removal bilaterally (especially not having evaluated you in person), but it is safe to say that you would be significantly smaller. I wou...

Do you have to have a tummy tuck to get a BBL?

Do you have to have a tummy tuck to get a BBL? NO.
Jun 29, 2020

Thank you for your question. No, a tummy tuck is not required to get a BBL. Your surgeon might simply be recommending a tummy tuck if there are concerns about your skin quality and current degree of skin laxity. When it comes to a BBL, the degree to which you can enhance the buttocks is limited by the amount of fat available for harvest. A tummy tuck at the time of a BBL is often not recommended as you are limited with how much liposuction you can perform on the abdomen and flanks at t...

Are there doctors that specialize in the double bubble problem?

Double Bubble Repair
Jun 29, 2020

Hi and thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear about your failed double bubble repairs. Double bubbles can be a difficult problem to correct but with an experienced surgeon they should be fairly easily addressed. It would be important to know what was done during your prior surgical corrections. With most double bubbles one of the most important things is often to reduce the size of a patient's implants and sometimes reinforce or recreate the breast pocket with an ADM or mes...

Axillary Breast Tissue Removal During Mommy Makeover

Hi and thank you for your question. In most cases removing axillary breast tissue can be easily accomplished during a routine mommy makeover procedure. Be sure to discuss this concern with your board certified plastic surgeon to learn more about your candidacy and the options available to you!
