Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How narrow can a wide nose be reduced?
Asian nose.
Oct 30, 2013
Yes, you will need alar base and tip reduction, bridge augmentation but it won’t look exactly like the picture that you would want to look like just because the foundation you have is different than the desired picture. My advise would be: finding a PS who is experienced with Asian Rhinoplasty procedure. Discuss with the surgeon before the surgery and establish a realistic outcome so you won’t be disappointed. Rhinoplasty for Asian patient can be very tricky so choose your surgeon…
Periareolar lift with silicone implants?
More than a periareolar lift.
Oct 30, 2013
Looking at your pictures, I’m afraid you might not be happy after a periareolar lift with implants. Discuss your concerns and desires with your PS again and may I suggest getting one or two more consults before having the procedure done. Best of luck.
Can I go into the ocean two weeks after implants – sub muscular, periareolar incision?
check with your surgeon
Oct 30, 2013
I honestly cannot answer this question with a yes or a no without seeing the incision site is healing. If the site is closed and looking well, I would take the extra cautious step of waterproofing the dressing. Even with that, I wouldn’t recommend staying in the water for extended period of time. And I would say no to activities in the water, even snorkeling. You will need to use your arm at some point and that is not recommended only 2 weeks post surgery. Check with your doctor to see…
Will weight regain make my breast size cone back?
simple yet not so simple
Oct 30, 2013
This sounds like a simple question yet it is not. The degree of changing in breast size along with weight loss/gain all depends on each individual’s body’s responses. Generally, breast size changes along with the fluctuate of your body weight. However, for some individual, it doesn’t come back exactly the way it was before the weight loss or gain. Do you currently have breast implant? If you do have breast implants, depending on the size of the implants, weight fluctuation sometimes only…
Implant size – worried that I will not be the desired size that I want!! surgery schedule in less
Trusting your surgeon.
Oct 30, 2013
Have you discuss your desires with your surgeon? Have you had sizing done with your surgeon? Did you get all your questions and concerns answered? Have you talk with someone or seen picture of someone who had the same procedure done by your surgeon? Is your surgeon board certified? Is your surgeon experienced in the procedure you’re seeking to have done? If you answer yes to all the above questions, most likely you will achieve the result you want. With almost 20 years experience in this…

Can I Take Tylenol Before Getting Botox Injections?
Botox
Apr 13, 2011
You may take Tylenol before and after procedure.  It does not increase the risk of bleeding or bruising.
Can I Get Butt Augmentation at Age of 16?
Butt Augmentation
Apr 13, 2011
You need to be the age of 18 to have a cosmetic procedure with out the consent of your parent or legal guardian.
IUD and Tummy Tuck
IUD
Apr 13, 2011
There is no reason for you to have your IUD removed.  It will have no effect on your tummy tuck.
Cold vs. Warm Compresses After Blepharoplasty?
Cold compresses
Apr 13, 2011
   Cold compresses are recommended for the first 48hrs about every 20 minutes.  I recommend frozen bags of peas to my patients.  There light weight  and contour to your face.
Average Cost for a Butt Implant?
Butt implants
Apr 13, 2011
Butt implants cost  around $6500.  That price includes everything but prescriptions and lab work.
Advil or Tylenol After Mommy Makeover
Tylenol
Apr 13, 2011
You do not want to use Advil for at least two weeks prior to surgery and two weeks after surgery. It is a blood thinner which will increase bleeding.  Tylenol is ok to use for pain but it will not help with the swelling.
Does Tummy Tuck Affect Life Span?
tummy tuck
Apr 13, 2011
A tummy tuck will not shorten your life span by any means!!   It will make your quality of life better and more enjoyable!!
10 Year Old Implants: Too Far Apart and Rippling – Can They be Fixed?
remove and replace
Apr 13, 2011
