Question

Answer Header & Date

Answer Snippet

Is There a Way to Get More Natural Looking Stomach from Bbl?

Stomach after brazilian butt lift
Jul 25, 2012

I agree with the other surgeons, you should if expect your stomach to look very nice after liposuction if you are truly a canidate for liposuction. If you have redundant skin or stretch marks, liposuction may not be your best option. Flanks are another great harvest site for fat transfers if your abdomen isn't the best option.

Best of luck!

Is Under or Over Muscle Best For And Active Person?

Behind the muscle or infront of the muscle augmentation
Apr 23, 2012

This is a great question, and it is often answered in many ways. I see alot of competetive fitness and body building competetors in my practice. Most, at consult, ask to have subglandular placement for their implants. On the surface, short term, it seems to be a great idea...less pain, less recovery, can give illusion of better nipple placement, back to the gym more quickly. But what happens in a few years, when your skin is not able to support your implant, or you get capsular contracture...

Is a Certification From ABCS the same as ABPS For a Mommy Makeover?

Board certification for plastic surgeons
Mar 6, 2012

Great question...unfortunately, someone boarded by the ABCS is generally an ear nose and throat surgeon not a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. Training for plastics is very specific and only surgeons with specific training in plastic and reconstructive surgery are boarded by the American Board of Plastic Surgeons.

I would strongly recommend you choose a surgeon with ABPS credentials for your Mommy Makeover surgery

What Order Are the Procedures Performed in Operating Room for Mommy Makeover?

Order of procedures for Mommy Makeover
Mar 6, 2012

Thanks for your question, generally order of procedures is dictated by sterility. In my room, what we do is prone first, which would be your liposuction. Then, while you are still asleep, turn you to the supine position, breasts followed by abdomen. Which allows a totally new set up for the breasts, and keeps you from having to lay on your tummy after a panniculectomy.

Best of luck with your surgery!!!

Is 22 Too Young for a Mommy Makeover?

Too young for Mommy Makeover
Mar 6, 2012

There is no perfect age for a Mommy Makeover, however I do caution young mothers that if you are not done having children, it may not be the most prudent use of your money. I do not recommend muscle tightening in Moms who think they may still have another child. Perhaps you could stage procedures, maybe liposuction and a breast aug if you feel very self conscious...and save the panniculectomy for a little later.

Best of luck to you, and there is no rush for elective surgery.

Expert Opinion Needed- Will My Expectations Be Met With 255cc Moderate Plus Profile?

Breast augmentation and expectations
Mar 5, 2012

Thank you for your question. I think every surgeon would like to be able to say that "x" implant can absolutely meet a patients expectations. Your surgeon will and has guided you well...in my practice, we use Mentor's volume sizing system to help patients see what volume a given implant will yield. Unlike the sizers we have been using for years, these are concave on the inside allowing your natural breast a place to sit vs. being squashed against a normal round sizer...

2 Weeks Post Op Breast Augmentation, Pain when I Breathe Deep or Cough, Should I be Concerned?

Pain when breathing
Feb 22, 2012

I would call your plastic surgeon ASAP! This could be a very benign problem like ypur implant irritating your nerve or too much activity to something much worse...seek advise from your surgeon today

How Many Cc's Do You Recommend?

Choosing implant size
Feb 22, 2012

I am seeing this question more and more, it is our job as plastic surgeons to help guide you through the sizing process and it IS a process. Photos are a great help in communicating desired size or shape to your surgeon. Conveying the look you want (natural vs perky) is also very helpful. But the height and width of your chest is also important and these things just can't be guessed with a photo. Find a local board certified surgeon and let them assist and guide you in this process...

Which Implants Are Right for Me? Small Bwd, but Want Natural Look. Sil Unders?

Choosing implant size
Feb 22, 2012

Thank you for your question and your diligent research but what do you need your surgeon for? This is something that your surgeon will most likely decide in surgery. Certainly they will need your input as far as the look you are going for etc, but the reason surgeons have intra-operative sizers are so you don't have to make this decision. Trust your doctor, thats why you chose him or her, for their expertise!

Good luck!

Switching Breast Implants from Subglandular to Submuscular, Is this Risky?

Going from subglandular to submuscular placement
Feb 22, 2012

Thank you for your question. If you are having rippling, going below the muscle will help, but in patients as thin as you are, you should still expect to feel your implant laterally. Going to a submuscular pocket with an intact implant is not a problem surgically. I recommend and do it often. Submuscular placement has so many benefits: easier to perform mammograms, lessens capsular contracture rate, not to mention look and feel.

Best of luck to you!

6 Months Post-Op my Left Breast is Higher Up then my Right, What Can I do?

Asymmetric results after breast augmentation
Feb 22, 2012

Thank you for your question, there are many explanations for your concern...obviously as others have said capsular contracture which would require revision surgery. Another thought is perhaps you had a slight asymmetry before surgery and its now exaggerated by your augmentation. Sometimes if a fold is lowered in surgery to correct a mild difference in folds, it can result in more asymmetry. I strongly encourage you to speak with your surgeon about your concerns and see what he recommends....

In Breast Augmentation, Does Size Decrease As the Swelling Goes Down?

Unhappy with size at one week
Feb 22, 2012

I generally tell my breast augmentation patients that if they are happy with their size the first week, I have chosen the wrong implant. You are swollen, your implants haven't dropped yet and you still probably don't feel great after surgery. This is not the time to make any decisions about your result. You will see some changes over the next several weeks and months, give yourself time to heal and to get used to your new look. Remember you hired an artist not a technician, trust...
