Silicone vs saline implants?
Tubular breast augmentation
Jul 13, 2015
You do not need a lift in my opinion. You may need an areolar reduction with your augmentation. Your pictures are consistent with tubular breast anatomy which is unique and often difficult to easily correct. Please view doctor websites for examples so you can see the limitations and expectations. Pick your surgeon carefully and be specific about your desires ... this can be difficult to correct to meet your expectations. Wish you the best! This could be a really...
Is it possible for me to get a fat transfer to breast?
Fat grafting to the breast - ideal for asymmetries in many patients
Jun 26, 2015
Yes and Yes. Fat transfer to the breast is a wonderful option if asymmetry is the main concern. You need to have enough fat to allow the harvest from somewhere else - hips, abdomen, thighs, for example. Harvesting from the abdomen is the easiest in most cases. Normally, I would not recommend implants for a patient who is less than 18 years old (at least). But asymmetry is different in my opinion. And fat grafting/transfer is an excellent solution....
Can you still breastfeed babies after having breast augmentation done?
Breastfeeding after Breast Augmentation
Jun 26, 2015
I totally agree with Dr. Park. You should be able to breastfeed after an augmentation surgery and I have many patients who have had children after their breast augmentation that have done very well! Glad you are thinking of breastfeeding! I am all for it! Breastfed all four of mine!Best of luck!
I am allergic to Cipro and Bactrim. I am having liposuction and BBL. What antibiotics are safe
Antibiotics and BBL
Jun 3, 2015
Keflex would be fine. Also cleocin. Both are different families of antibiotics than the quinolones (ciproflaxacin) or the sulfa drugs (bactrim).
I have a pretty firm and perky butt would I still be able to get a lot of ccs of fat injected
For a BBL, it is not necessary to have a flat or saggy buttocks to get a nice resul.
May 13, 2015
It is just more dramatic for the before and after pictures. You look like a great candidate! Just bring pictures of your ideal shape and size to share your aesthetic thoughts with your surgeon. Also realize you may have difficulty fitting some clothes because of your small waist after Lipo and extra full buttocks! But, there's always alterations! Be sure to give yourself plenty of recovery time because you can't sit on those fat grafts! Good luck!
How much is liposuction to one area to remove bra fat?
Liposuction of bra fat
May 4, 2015
This is a common problem for women and as a woman, I get it! If the bra is tight enough to do what it is supposed to do, then it is going to make the fat bulge around it. The problem is extra skin as well as fat so liposuction with ultrasound works the best for me. The heat generated by the vibrational energy will tighten the skin much more than traditional or laser liposuction in my hands. I have used this for almost 20 years now in hundreds of cases. The back fat is...
Do breast implants affect hormone levels?
Breast implants and hormone levels
Mar 8, 2015
No. I am not aware of any connection. The mire a IUD has slow release hormones. Implants do not. Although some women can lactate short term after they get implants, this is not thought to be hormonally related to the implants.
Do you think I could have just breast implants as I don't want an uplift?
Lift with implants
Mar 8, 2015
An implant fills but does not really lift. If you like a more relaxed look, you will probably be pleased. If you want upper pole fullness or a perky look, you may not. Think of how you looked when you were pregnant or breastfeeding. That is similar to what implants will look like. Don't get implants that are too large to try and fill up the extra skin. It will droop more over time. Ask for before and afters from the surgeons you see.
Is Botox effective for Frontalis Muscle?
Botox for forehead lines
Mar 8, 2015
Botox to the frontalis works well, but since this is the muscle that lifts the brows, you will see some drop in the brow height if it is treated alone. I almost always treat the brow depressors to get lift of the brows if I am treating the frontalis. This compensates for the drop I expect to get from the inactive frontalis. The brow depressors are the muscles that create the frown line and the crows feet. Just make sure the person who does your Botox understands the anatomy...
I am looking to get a Brazilian butt lift. Now I weigh 111.8. Do I have to weigh a certain wei
BBL
Mar 8, 2015
You don't need to weigh a certain amount, but you do need to have enough fat to harvest for transfer. You will probably need fat from your abdomen and hips. Gaining weight prior to surgery can be helpful in harvesting more fat. You look like a good candidate from your pictures. Find a surgeon who is board certified in plastic surgery and experienced in BBL. It is an art and the technique is critical to achieve the best results. You need the maximum amount of fat...
Considering getting a BBL with fat transfer. Can I have this procedure without a TT?
BBlL with Tummy tuck
Mar 8, 2015
It is better to get the BBL without a tummy tuck. The positioning after surgery is to difficult. I don't do them together.
I would like an estimate for the number of units of Botox I may need to treat this area. (Phot
Botox - how much?
Mar 2, 2015
I would estimate 25-30 minimum and make sure to treat the outer brow with a few units otherwise only the inner brow is elevated and that can give you a "sad" expression. Outer brow Botox maintains your arch and can even give the appearance of a brow lift!
Can I get the results I want with just an implant or do I NEED a lift too?
"Fake look" and ptosis don't work together
Feb 27, 2015
I believe you will need a lift to get the result you desire. The breast skin envelope is too large to avoid a lift and you won't get the round Fake look you like without a lift. The incisions are a trade but a necessary one to achieve your goal. Make sure your surgeon uses a permanent suture around your areola to avoid enlarging the areola after the lift.
Is cool sculpting or regular liposuction better?
Coolsculpting vs. Liposuction
Feb 26, 2015
I have done liposuction for over 15 years, but I have to say coolsculpting (and Ultrashape) have impressed me and I am a skeptic!For small localized ares, non-surgical fat reduction is great. The more areas you desire addressed, the more likely you should lean toward liposuction.Liposuction is definitely more thorough in contouring, but there is a significant amount of downtime as you do higher volumes (4-5 liters). You need to decide whether downtime is an issue. If you...
I would love for my stomach not to look like a "butt".
Tummy tucks: Incisions, liposuction, contouring, muscle tightening, and skin removal
Feb 26, 2015
You will indeed trade a scar, but the horizontal scar is much more acceptable. My goal for my patients is "bikini ready". Whether they would ever wear a bikini or not, I want them to feel like they could be comfortable in a bikini if they chose to wear one. As a mother of four who breastfed four babies, I get it! In your case, the scar should be gone as it will be released from the adherence to the abdominal wall and most of the skin below the belly button removed....
