Question

Answer Header & Date

Answer Snippet

Body Lift -- Can I get a second body lift to further tighten skin?

"Second" Body Lift
Feb 20, 2015

Great question. It seems that you are concerned with your legs and buttocks from your question. You may need a thigh lift to remove the skin there. Consult with your Plastic Surgeon about this. Good Luck

Is it ok to lose a small about of additional weight after a lower body lift?

weight loss
Feb 20, 2015

Of course! It is always a great idea to loose weight and stay healthy. Good Luck with loosing weight and recoverying from your body lift.

How is Hematoma after Brachioplasty typically treated?

hematoma
Feb 20, 2015

Some small hematoma will be reabsorbed by your body and heal in their own. If it is a large one then your surgeon may have to drain it. Make sure you are taking it easy. Good Luck

Is it possible to do arm surgery?

Bulky forearms
Feb 20, 2015

From your picture your arms look great! It doesn't look like you have excessive skin or fat. If it is muscle that is causing the bulk you are worrying about then there is no surgical option for "muscle reduction". If you were to remove parts of your arm muscle, you may risk loosing some movement of your arm. You should make an appointment for a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Will these dimples straighten out? Post arm lift/brachioplasty

Arm Lift healing
Feb 20, 2015

Since you're only 3 weeks out from surgery you still have some swelling, which may be why it looks dimpled in some areas. Once your swelling goes down the skin will relax and smooth out. Talk to your Plastic Surgeon about wearing a compression garment if he doesn't already have you wearing one. It can help with the swelling. Arm elevation as well can help. But you should follow your surgeons reccomendations and follow up with him/her if you have...

What about arm lifts for 66 year olds?

Arm Lift
Feb 20, 2015

Great question! I would recommend having a consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who can take a look at your arms to see if you are a good candidate for the arm lift. If you are a candidate, I would recommend that you go for a medical clearance from your primary care physician. Age alone does not exclude you from this type of surgery.Good Luck

6 wks post-op brachiop. This opened at 4 weeks. How long might this take to close & what will

Open wound
Feb 20, 2015

Your wound looks clean and I don't see any signs of infection. Continue the wet to dry as your surgeon told you and the wound should close on its own over the next month or so. If you have any concerns you should follow up with your surgeon. Good Luck

Arm Lift. What is twilight sedation?

Twilight Sedation
Feb 20, 2015

Great question.What the plastic surgeon is proposing to you is to an arm lift under local sedation. If he is doing a full arm lift (brachioplasty) even with the local anesthesia this may be very uncomfortable for you.Twilight sedation is when an anesthesiologist gives you medication through an IV to sedate you, but not enough sedation to where you would need to be intubated (breathing tube). Good Luck

How long does it take for the scar line to fade after earlobe reconstruction surgery?

Earlobe scar
Jan 29, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. Scars from any procedure mature on their own timeline. Generally it takes up to a year for a scar to fully mature and flatten. However, a scar will never fully disappear, but the appearance will improve over time. If you have concerns as to how the scar is healing, it is recommended to follow-up with your board certified Plastic Surgeon. Good luck with everything!

Will my breasts still be saggy?

Will my breasts still be saggy?
Jan 29, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. In order to achieve your goal results of tight and perky, it looks from your pictures that you would need to consider both a breast lift and augmentation. The best course of action would be to schedule a consult with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who can examine you in person and devise a plan to achieve your results. Good luck!

Had a Tummy Tuck done and I am past 2 months. Today I started feeling numbness across my stoma

Numbness after tummy tuck
Jan 29, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. It is not unusual to have some numbness across the abdomen and incision lines after this procedure. In most cases, the feeling will return in the following 6-12 months or occasionally there can be some residual areas of numbness. If you have any concerns, the best plan is to follow-up with your board certified Plastic Surgeon. Good luck with everything!

1 week post op. Hematoma? Capsular contracture risk? Too soon to tell? 500cc HP mentor silicon

Breast augmentation
Jan 29, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. Your results look great so far! While it is always good to be wary of hematomas and contracture, it is also possible that you have a muscle spasm on the left side. Sometimes one side may also drop and relax faster than the other. If you still have concerns, just keep in touch with your board certified Plastic Surgeon and make another appointment to follow-up. Good luck with everything!

When should I start to worry about no hair growth in the VERY LARGE coronal brow lift scar? (P

Alopecia after browlift
Jan 29, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. After 3 months, it is unlikely that you will see much hair regrowth back within the scarred area. It is usual to wait 8-12 months to see what your final result will be and then to schedule some sort of revision. It looks like you may need a scar revision under minimal tension and possibly hair grafting in the future for any problem areas. You should definitely follow-up with your board certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss...

Post facelift swelling

Swelling after a facelift
Jan 28, 2015

Hi and thank you for your question. It is normal to have swelling after a facelift and it can take up to 6-8 months for it to completely resolve. There can also be some numbness after this procedure, but it can be temporary or in some cases permanent. Your best course of action would be to make an appointment with your board certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your concerns and where you are in the healing process. Good luck with everything.

Hair growth in scalp scars after face lift

Scalp scar and hair loss
Jan 28, 2015

Hi and thank you for the question. Sometimes after a procedure near your scalp there can be some temporary hair loss. This hair may return, but generally hair will not regrow in the scarred area. This can be revised in a later surgery or hair can be transplanted to that area. Good luck with everything.
