Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How can I correct my puffy and tubular breasts?
Tubular breasts
May 16, 2019
You have a very mild form of tubular breast deformity. I might even be hard pressed to put you into that classification. None the less you are an excellent candidate for a breast augmentation procedure whereby you can also reduce your areolar diameter and correct your puffy nipple issues with a minimal scar.
Does this tissue look healthy? I can see down to my muscle. PS wants to sew the deep layers for the
Open wound after tummy tuck
May 16, 2019
Given the fact that you have had this closed before, I would definitely use the vac to help the wound healing process. It is actually less wound care than doing daily wet to dry dressing changes. They do have portable versions now so that you can do your daily activities using a small fanny pack type module. Once you see healthy granulation tissue from the base then potentially the wound could be closed. Hope this helps. Good luck.
How many times does a seroma need to be drained before it goes away?
Fluid collection after facelift
Aug 21, 2018
The key to having a seroma resolve is by aspirating it every other day to decompress the cavity and allow the cavity to obliterate. My only concern is that the cheek fluid collection could also represent a leak of salivary fluid. It should be checked for amylase to make sure that you do not have a salivary gland injury. Otherwise I think frequent aspiration is the key to getting the seroma to resolve in conjunction with a good compression garment. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Can you get a fat graft for both a BBL and your breasts in one surgery?
BBL and fat graft to breasts
Jun 23, 2018
Yes it is absolutely possible to have both a Brazilian butt lift and fat grafting to the breasts done at the same time. The issue will be whether you have enough donor fat. The use of the Revolve fat grafting system greatly accelerates the time to harvest and therefore it can be done within a reasonable amount of time. Hope this helps. Good luck.
5 year post tummy tuck, should I revise belly button or laser?
Belly button scar after tummy tuck
May 24, 2018
Since you are 5 years post tummy tuck, your scars are mature and really will not be very responsive to laser treatments. Your best option is to have the scar revised under local. This could easily be done in an office-type setting. That way the scar could also be moved slightly more internally so it is not so noticeable. Hope this helps. Good luck.
How long after a tummy tuck can I get Brazilian butt lift?
Timing between surgery BBL and tummy tuck
May 24, 2018
Typically I would recommend at least 3 months between major operations like a Brazilian butt lift and a tummy tuck. This will allow for the tummy tuck to heal and for you to recover. It will also allow additional liposuction contouring of the abdominal region to harvest additional fat for your Brazilian butt lift. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Is it possible to have a lift that doesn't reduce size and creates fullness on top? Curious about in
Mastopexy
May 24, 2018
Based on your photographs, you are an excellent candidate for a mastopexy alone. You have adequate breast tissue and you appear to have some asymmetry as well with the right breast fuller than the left. For the last 15 years I have been performing a procedure called the pectoral loop mastopexy which provides excellent upper pole fullness by rearranging breast tissue and maintaining its position using a loop of your pectoralis muscle as an internal hammock to support the breast tissue....
I’m 8 weeks post-op BBL, when can I start squats and exercise? What exercise can I start out with?
Exercise after BBL
May 24, 2018
At 8 weeks post op after Brazilian butt lift you can at this point resume strenuous activities. Begin slowly and work your way up to your normal regimen. Let your body tell you what you should or shouldn't be doing in terms of discomfort. I would recommend you continue to wear a supportive elastic exercise garment during your activities. Hope this helps. Good luck.
20 days post op tummy tuck and my lower abdomen feels a little softer like a water balloon.
Abdominoplasty complications
May 24, 2018
Based on the description it sounds like you may have developed a post- operative fluid collection or seroma. Wearing your support garment will help to try to resorb the fluid but in the end you may need to have it aspirated. Otherwise this seroma fluid create a permanent cavity that may be more difficult to treat. I also worry about these fluid collections getting infected. Iwould recommend you seek out another surgeon to address this as soon as possible. Hope this helps....
Breast Lift needed? Do I really need to spend the money on a lift if I get implants?
Breast augmentation and lift
May 24, 2018
Based on your photographs you would be an optimal candidate for both augmentation and mastopexy. Although you could have your implants placed above the muscle to try to avoid a lift, I think the breast would appear low and you would not achieve the upper pole fullness that you desire. For both short and long-term optimal results a mastopexy in conjunction with a breast augmentation would be your best approach. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Am I eligible for the Benelli (donut lift)?
Donut mastopexy
May 24, 2018
A donut or periareolar mastopexy has its limitations. It is particularly useful to reduce the diameter of the areola but is a fairly weak procedure in terms of lifting the breast. One must be careful about when to apply this procedure. The risk is leaving a flattened breast with a pleated appearance to the incision. Based on your photographs I think you potentially are a better candidate for a lollipop or vertical mastopexy to avoid these potential issues. Hope this...
Was my labia minora sutured to my labia majora?
Labiaplasty and swelling
May 24, 2018
Aside from some mild asymmetry and some swelling your results are quite adequate. I see no evidence that the labia minora was in any way sutured to the majora. You're only 5 weeks post-op. The swelling and scar tissue will continue to resolve and your results should continue to improve. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Preop tummy tuck
May 22, 2018
Given the fact that you've never had surgery before, it is reasonable to have a preoperative history and physical performed by your primary care physician. At that visit he can order labs if necessary and perform any other preoperative testing to ensure that you have a smooth recovery. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Skinny BBL with no results - 6 weeks out
Skinny BBL
May 22, 2018
Based on your history and photographs it appears that you simply do not have enough donor fat to make a significant volume difference to your buttocks. Your other option would be to have buttock augmentation using silicone implants. It is essential you seek out a well-trained board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with buttock implants in order for you to achieve your expectations. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Labiaplasty and discharge
May 22, 2018
Based on your symptoms and photographs it is likely that you have developed a vaginal yeast infection. This is particularly common after surgery where you may have been prescribed antibiotics orally. Check with your plastic surgeon but often times a few doses of Diflucan is all that is needed to treat your issue. Hope this helps. Good luck.
