How Soon After Surgery Can I Start Scar Treatment?
Scar management after tummy tuck
Oct 30, 2015
Scar minimization should be part of any plastic surgery procedure, and should be discussed before the surgery. The key step in minimizing scars after tummy tuck is the performance of the procedure to reduce tension on the skin closure. Substituting wound closure tapes at the end of the procedure, or at the first office visit, for skin sutures can help. For patients who tend to form noticeable scars even from minor injuries, the early use of occlusion (such as silicone gel...
What Can I Do to Get Rid of Swelling After Tummy Tuck Surgery?
Swelling After Tummy Tuck
Oct 30, 2015
Swelling is normal and will last for more than 30 days; in some cases swelling may not be gone for 6 months or more. The color of the healing incisions is a good indicator of the progress of recovery. If incision sites are red or pink, healing continues both outside and inside.When you're ready and cleared by your doctor, progressively resume your exercise program. Combined with some massage, exercise is the best way to restore circulation which will help to reduce swelling...
For upper and lower blepharoplasty surgery, is it best to have an Oculoplastic Surgeon perform the surg
Eyelid Surgery by Oculoplastic Surgeon?
Jul 27, 2015
In any medical discipline, training and experience are key. You can find out easily if your doctor is board certified in plastic surgery or ophthalmology. Both specialties are qualified and many plastic surgeons do additional fellowship training in oculoplastic surgery.No specialty has a "lock" on any procedure. For example, excellent back surgery can be done by both neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons both of whom are back specialists.You seem to have had a good...
Is Swelling Normal After Laser Tattoo Removal?
Swelling After Laser Treatment
Jul 27, 2015
Swelling is normal after most surface laser treatments, including tattoo removal. If there was no swelling at all, the energy level used in treatment might not be adequate.Swelling can be controlled by elevating the part treated and applying cool compresses (but not ice directly on the skin). Swelling should begin to resolve in 2 or 3 days. If the area becomes increasingly swollen or red after that, let your doctor know as it might be a sign of early infection.
Can you tighten skin on the nose?
Tighten Nasal Skin?
Jul 24, 2015
Though you might think you have too much skin, it's the bone and cartilage structure creating the foundation that requires adjustment. Cosmetic improvement almost never requires removal of excess skin.Appropriate adjustment of the nasal tip will require strengthening the cartilage to achieve the improved contour you seek. Sometimes this can be achieved by reworking the tip cartilages; often a cartilage graft will be needed.You may not need the hump you describe removed. As...
What can I do about my crooked nose? I have a indentation and a hump only on my left side
Correcting attractive nose
Jul 20, 2015
You have an attractive nose, so corrections for the issues you raise must be done with finesse to preserve facial balance. Your past history is important. Have you ever had an injury which caused the crooked appearance and indentation?Do you have any difficulty breathing through either side of the nose? The answers help determine what will be needed, but you must have an examination to be certain. Correcting the hump is generally straightforward. The approach to...
What are the chances of a keloid forming after breast augmentation procedure?
Keloids and Breast Augmentation Surgery
Jul 9, 2015
True keloid formation is uncommon and is often confused with hypertrophic scarring. A keloid scar outgrows the border of the initial location, hypertrophic scars do not. Diagnosis is important because treatment differs between the two conditions.Bad scars of any type do not occur frequently with breast augmentation. An unfavorable scar in another location such as the arm or leg does not predict how you will heal after implant surgery.Your personal and family history can be a...
Do I have tuberous breasts, and how do I fix them?
Tuberous breasts?
Jul 9, 2015
An in person examination is required to answer your question, but it is worth doing now even if you will not need a corrective procedure soon. Many board-certified plastic surgeons provide complimentary initial examinations. Often a doctor's web site will tell you if a consultation is free. At most, you may call the office and ask.We often wait for complete breast development before taking corrective action, but a diagnosis and discussion of treatment options can be done...
Best options for fixing saggy skin under chin and initial jowling?
Early changes of facial aging
Jul 5, 2015
Gradual loss of facial soft tissue volume is among the earliest causes of apparent sagging of facial skin. Replacing lost volume throughout the lower face with small amounts of your fat accompanied by some redistribution of existing fat under the chin is is an effective approach to your concerns. Using your own fat as a filler will provide a longer term improvement than synthetic fillers.Evaluation of skin and deeper soft-tissue laxity must be done in office. If laxity is...
Any suggestions for sloppy asymmetrical eyes?
Eyelid Asymmetry

Lower eyelid asymmetry may be the result of many different causes including:prenatal and developmental growth issues of the facial bones, nerves and eyelidsprevious injury or surgery to the facehistory of sinus infectiontreatment of the upper face with botox.An examination is required to evaluate the underlying cause. Once completed, a procedure to reposition the lower eyelids should provide the improvement you seek.Ask your doctor for a referral to an experienced plastic surgeon.
Any way to fill lost volume in the face with less bruising?
Reducing Bruising with Facial Filler Injection
Jul 1, 2015
The risk of bruising is more a function of preparation and injection technique than the type of filler being injected. These apply equally to synthetic fillers and lipografts.Preparation includes first eliminating underlying medical causes for excess bruising, as well as medications and supplements that may increase the risk of bruising. Supplements such as arnica preparations taken before the office visit for fillers may also help reduce the risk of bruising.A detailed knowledge...
At What Age Do Your Breast Stop Developing?
Breast Development
Jun 24, 2015
Most women complete breast development by age 18 to 20 years, but there can be wide variation depending on when the menstrual cycle begins, whether medications are taken that can influence breast growth, and dietary habits. Breast development can usually be considered completed when no further changes occur over a period of 2 years.
How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
Swelling After A Tummy Tuck
Jun 24, 2015
This question is very popular after this procedure and the results will vary from patient to patient.After a tummy tuck your swelling will fluctuate during the day and you may notice more swelling as the day progresses especially over the pubic region of the scar. Swelling generally lasts 3 months, but may persist as long as 12-18 months if you have had previous treatment.Almost all tummy tuck procedures include liposuction to create smooth transitions to adjacent...
Can these under eye wrinkles be filled?
Options for Improving Eyelid Contour
Jun 5, 2015
Since you just had surgery on your eyelids, I recommend waiting at least three more months before you consider doing any other procedures.One option to increase volume and smooth the lower eyelids would be micro-fat grafting. Fat is extracted from another part of the body, purified, and injected to smooth the contour of the lower eyelids.Another option would be to use a filler such as Juvederm Ultra. Fillers correctly placed can improve eyelid contour, but are less durable than fat...
29 yr old man with very noticeable nasolabial folds due to weight loss. PRP or fillers?
Treatment For Your Nasolabial Folds
May 7, 2015
Based on your photo, fat grafting would create a more enduring result than off-the-shelf fillers or PRP. You should have a comprehensive facial consultation to evaluate the potential benefit for other areas as well. Examples of off-the-shelf fillers that could help smooth your nasolabial folds include Radiesse, Restylane and Juvederm. Seek a consultation with a plastic surgeon or cosmetic specialist who has experience in fat grafting and fillers to discuss your options. Good luck.
