Answer Snippet
6 Weeks Post Tummy Tuck: Still Swollen and Wrinkled
6 Weeks Post Tummy Tuck: Still Swollen and Wrinkled
Apr 29, 2011
It appears that you had indications for an abdominoplasty and not its "mini" version.

Dr. Aldea's and Dr. Rand's comments are on target.

Will my Implant Drop Into the Pocket?
Will my Implant Drop Into the Pocket?
Apr 29, 2011
Settling of the implants will depend  on the capsule forming around the implants.

If the implants remain high, after six months,  they might need to be lowered or the breast lifted.

Is This a Typical Tummy Tuck Scar?
Abdominoplasty Scar Appearance
Apr 29, 2011
You will have to wait about six months and then assess its appearance.

At that time, it is likely that a revision might be indicated.

Travel 5 Weeks After Abdominoplasty?

Apr 23, 2011
I suggest you go on your trip first – that way you will have nothing to worry about regarding your healing or potential complications.
4 Weeks Post- Tummy Tuck. Prone to Hypertrophic Scarring. Suggestions?
Scar Management after Abdominoplasty
Apr 23, 2011
I would suggest continous silicone scar sheet application starting two weeks after surgery for three months plus monthly evaluations by your plastic surgeon for potential Kenolog steroid injections and/or laser therapy.
When Will This Necrosis After Tummy Tuck Heal?
Necrosis after Abdominoplasty
Apr 21, 2011
Healing will take about 3 months, when managed properly.

It will take several weeks until the extent of the necrosis has defined itself.

Debridement should be done only on clearly necrotic tissue.

Frequent visits with your plastic surgeon are key.

Any revisional surgery, if needed, should wait at least 1 -2 years.

Should I be Moving Around Immediately After Breast Augmentation?
Breast Augmentation Recovery
Apr 21, 2011
Instructions vary with surgeons and patients, but should be focused on the prevention of early healing complications, such as blood clots, bleeding (hematoma) and infection.

Excessive resting in bed may promote blood clots.

Excessive activity might start up bleeding.

The middle ground, taking it easy and resting the first week is prudent – the body deserves time to heal.

 

Will a Revision Fix my High Implant Placement?
Breast Implant Revision
Apr 21, 2011
At six months after your last surgery, I would suggest releasing the lower aspect of your implant pocket on both sides – to lower the implants. The areolar approach would be most suitable for this.

Also, your new implant volume seems disproportional for your frame. You may wish to re-consider a smaller size to end up with a more natural appearing result.

Seroma or Normal Swelling 15 Weeks After Tummy Tuck?
Healiing after Tummy Tuck
Apr 21, 2011
One attempted needle aspiration does not eliminate the possibility of a fluid collection (seroma) – perhaps it was missed.

You may wish to obtain the opinion of another plastic surgeon.

 

Can I Change my Doctor with Medicare?
Abdominoplasty Complication
Apr 21, 2011
You may wish to obtain a consulation with a new plastic surgeon in your community.

Be advised that treatment of complications after cosmetic plastic surgery are not usually covered by insurance.  

Looking Good 1 Month After Rhinoplasty – Should I Worry?
Rhinoplasty Healing
Apr 21, 2011
Your nasal appearance will continue to evolve over the next 1 to 2 years.

You should feel encouraged that you are doing well

Can I Correct Breast Pocket w/o Surgery 3 Weeks Post Op?
Implant Migration
Apr 5, 2011
The description suggests an oversized implant pocket out towards the side.

At this point, would suggest external taping and a supportive bra for several months to keep the implant centralized behind the breast while the peri-implant capsule is still forming.

It this proves unsuccessful, the eventual capsule may need to be surgically reduced  (Lateral Capsulorrhaphy) to match the implant,  about six months after the initial procedure.

How Do I Know if the Nostril Incision is Healing Properly After Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty Incisions
Apr 5, 2011
Since you are able compare left to right, you should have the right side examined by your surgeon for normal healing – perhaps there was a small area of separation.

In general,  scars require 6-12months to heal.

Does Having a Hematoma Post-op Increase Your Risk of Capsular Contracture?
Hematoma and Capsular Contracture
Apr 5, 2011
With the appropriate and expeditious management you received for your hematoma, your risk for capsular contracture may only be slighltly higher than usual, but it is not helpful to worry about this.

Once cleared to begin your implant massage, do so for the next three months, morning and evening, and present for monthly follow-ups to monitor for signs of early contracture formation.

Is It Better to Use the Same Doctor for a Redo? Are Techniques Similar Internationally?
Breast Implant Increase
Apr 5, 2011
No reason to switch the surgeon if all went well the first time.

Before proceeding, you might wish think a bit more about your reasons for increasing the implant volume beyond 325 ml and its impact on your own breast tissue short and long term.
