Candidate for a tummy tuck ? I have had 2 csections , I am 168 pounds and 5’5

Tummy tuck requirements.
Mar 11, 2019

The best time to do a tummy tuck is when you are done with pregnancies and are at your normal weight. I strive for a BMI less than 30 to improve the risks of surgical complications. Other than this you look to be a good candidate. Try to be in the best shape possible to get the nicest results.Best WishesDr. Peterson

What can I do about my upper hollow eyelid, and do I have ptosis?

Upper eye lid changes
Mar 11, 2019

The issues you are seeing in your upper eyelid is normal with aging. Each issue should be dealt with separately. You can help the upper eyelid hollowing with filler injections. I would recommend doing this first and seeing how you like the results. The eyelid skin can be removed with an eyelid incision. You do not have ptosis. You have a classic ethnic eye shape and you are not abnormal.Review all of your concerns in consultation with your surgeon and you should be able to get a nice r…

Does rhinoplasty help with under eye bags too?

Eye lid bags and rhinoplasty are separate
Mar 6, 2019

The anatomy and structures of the lower eye lids will not be manipulated with a rhinoplasty. You can do the correction of both at the same time but one will not affect the other. Don’t be surprised if you get swelling under your eyes after a rhinoplasty but this will return back to normal.Discuss both of these issues with your surgeon and find a good solution for yourself.Best WishesDr. Peterson

8 days post op labiaplasty, stitches are coming out in one area. PS said it will close up. Is it

Separating stitches on labia
Mar 4, 2019

The best thing to do with a healing problem with a labiaplasty is to allow time for the body to heal. Try to protect the incision site from too much movement and moisture. Your pictures do not look infected because there is no redness of extra swelling. Some drainage is normal with an open wound but the body is able to heal pretty well. Keep close follow up with your surgeon. At this time, careful watching is the best answer.Best WishesDr. Peterson

2 years post-op, breast aug. I’m wondering about chiropractic treatment such as adjustments and

Implant trauma and rupture
Jan 12, 2019

It would very unusual for chiropractic adjustments to cause any damage to breast implants. Your main concern is to avoid putting too much pressure on the implants and tearing the implant capsule. This happens with seat belt injuries and air bags with car accidents. The implant gets pushed off the chest and tears the implant capsule on the side. The implant will then position itself to the side. You can avoid a lot of pressure on the implants by placing a towel across you ribs below…

Does the Natrelle inspira ssx 400 look fake?

Implant size choice
Jan 12, 2019

Choosing an implant size is very personal. Every woman has different goals as well as past experience. There are a few good rules to remember. As you go up in size you will look more fake and you need to use an implant with a diameter that fits your chest. Every surgeon has a method for sizing. My preferred method is to have a patient try on implant sizer to see what size gives them the “look” they are seeking. Once you know how much size you want, then you have to see what implan…

Need help on deciding which profile and how big? Im looking at 650cc moderate plus?

Increasing breast implant size
Jan 12, 2019

You have several goals and concerns that will need to be addressed in person with your plastic surgeon. As you go up in implant size you will want to use an implant that is not too wide for your chest to avoid the side boob. A capsulorrhaphy will also help to keep the implant to the center. You will need to have your pocket opened up in the center to narrow the cleavage. As the implant moves to the center and create more fullness in the middle your nipples will appear to more on the sid…

Can I have a good Tummy tuck result without a muscle repair?

Diastasis correction and tummy tuck
Dec 24, 2018

You did not mention if you have had any pregnancies. Your picture shows a moderate amount of facial laxity that is consistent with prior pregnancies. It looks like you are a good candidate for a complete tummy tuck to include the muscle plication. The muscle plication will add some time to your recovery but the results are much better. I would recommend doing the complete procedure to get the best results.Best WishesDr. Peterson

Weak chin correction
Dec 24, 2018

Your photos show a weak chin as well as a weak mandible. You can obtain some chin correction with either a chin implant or sliding genioplasty but you should have your entire occlusion and bite evaluated. You have multiple options with some significant differences in degrees of complexity. We are talking about adjusting the entire lower jaw versus adding a chin implant. Get familiar with all of these options so you can choose which is best for you.Best WishesDr. Peterson

Will my upper ab region bulge after TT without lipo of upper abs?

Upper abdomen after tummy tuck
Dec 24, 2018

Dear VeronicaM,I will agree with the advice you got at your consultation. After a standardard tummy tuck you may still have some fullness in the fat layer that you would like to have reduced. This is usually not an obvious bulge because the tissue has been pulled down and stretched a little bit. The risk of liposuction in this zone at the same time as a tummy tuck is pretty high for healing complications.Following a tummy tuck you can address this zone with Coolsculpting or liposuction if…

Can an extreme double bubble be fixed?

Double bubble correction
Dec 24, 2018

The muscle action does make the double bubble look pretty significant. It is obvious the lower fold of the breast was released too much so it allows the implant to slip under the fold. I would need to see the situation of your preop photos to determine if there was a need for such a significant release.This can be corrected by re-establishing the lower fold so the implant does not slide under the fold. This might be accomplished with suturing techniques and release of the muscle or it ma…

Will my nipple piercing make me more susceptible to nipple necrosis after breast reduction?

Nipple piercing and necrosis
Nov 21, 2018

Breast reductions do have some risk of skin and nipple necrosis but this is very small. A piercing through the nipple has not been a problem in my practice.

Can a rhinoplasty fix my thick skinned nose? What are my options?

Thick nasal skin
Nov 21, 2018

You have features of your nose that can be improved with a rhinoplasty. Your thick skin does limit how much detail can be achieved.

Seek out a provider to help your skin and a surgeon that can help your nose shape.Best WishesDr. Peterson

13 years post op BA, asymmetrical pockets. Will breast re-augmentation help?

Breast implant pocket revision
Oct 31, 2018

Almost all breast implant replacement procedures require some pocket revisions. You have some need to reinforce the fold on the right side and do some other internal pocket releases. I would suspect you will have some nice improvements with new implants and some pocket corrections.Best WishesDr. Peterson
