Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Considering a mini tummy tuck – how long should I wait after my c-section?
Mini TT after C Section
Nov 9, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry. If your weight has stabilized and it is at least 3 months after the CS you should be a candidate for the procedure. Have a consultation w a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for an examination and discussion of the procedure.
Can someone tell me what’s happened? Am I bottoming out?
Bottoming Out
Jul 27, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry and photo. You definitely have bottomed out OR when your implants were placed they were positioned too low. I would suggest that you follow up with your surgeon and even recommend that you seek a second opinion.
The distance from the nipple to the inframammary crease is much longer than desirable.
11 months post op – what can I do about high breast augmentation scars?
Breast Augmentation Scars
Jun 30, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. I agree that your scars do appear slightly higher than desired and they have spread somewhat.

Since it is approaching 1 year since your surgery, a scar revision should be considered and if there is early evidence of the scars spreading an early intervention would be advised.

Wishing you the best.

I had a BA-250CC, Can I go up to 295C or 325CC and not look too full in the upper pole?
Inadequate augmentation.
Feb 3, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. Based on your height and your chest dimension, I would expect that an implant even up 400cc would serve you well. That would probably put you into a comfortable / full C cup. Also, a peri-areolar lift of the right nipple areolar complex would help to even out the nipple position. Good luck.
Could I address volume loss with a breast augmentation alone or will I need a lift as well?
Breast Augmentation
Jan 28, 2023
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. From the pics it appears that you should be able to achieve a nice result with an augmentation alone using a moderately sized implant. There are differences between the right and left sides and this could be addressed at the same time.
As long as your weight is somewhat stable at this point you could proceed at your convenience. Good luck!
Would 375cc, submuscular give me a fuller breast or would it be better to do 400cc?
Implant sizing
Dec 13, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. I think that either size would work well for you. The difference between the 2 sizes you mentioned is less than 2 tablespoons or a shot glass, so there would not be a noticeable difference with these 2 implant sizes. Good luck with your surgery. Also, do a detailed comparison between your breasts before surgery as no one is perfectly symmetrical.
Spitting stitches 1.5 years post tummy tuck – Is this normal?
Oozing after Tummy Tuck
Dec 2, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and the photos. You should immediately follow up with your surgeon as this is clearly not normal 20 months following surgery. Your surgeon should be able to determine what is causing the problem and take care of it. Good luck.
Tummy is lumpy and misshapen after 2 liposuction procedures. Is this a skin or fat issue?
Loose skin and ‘bumpy’ results after lipo
Nov 22, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. From the photos it is apparent that the procedure needed is an abdominoplasty to correct / improve the appearance of your abdomen. Any further lipo is, in my opinion, unwarranted and will not address the real problem which is the excess skin.
Good luck going forward.
14 months postpartum, left with loose skin. Will weight loss make this more noticeable? Will I need a t
LOOSE ABDOMINAL SKIN
Nov 4, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. If you are not planning on having additional children you may consider an abdominal lipectomy (‘tummy tuck’) to correct the mid abdominal laxity. It has been my experience that after childbirth the mid abdominal skin laxity that may be present does not usually respond to exercise and weight loss.

If you are planning more children, I would suggest waiting until you are done and then consider surgery. Good luck.

Are my scars lower than they should be? Almost 6 months post op, breast augmentation 210cc implants (ph
Scar location
Sep 21, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. I agree that your scars are definitely too low on the chest. I would question why the surgeon decided to place them in that location and what can be done to at least improve on the appearance of the scars.
Old seroma that doesn’t go away – Is this scar tissue? How can i get rid of it?
Bump after 360 lipo
Sep 16, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photo. Since there was a seroma post op, the most likely thing is that the lump you are feeling / seeing is an encapsulated seroma. Typically these are somewhat firm but the capsule may still be in development / maturation. If there is a question about it, the easiest way to get an answer would be to have an ultrasound of the area. That could determine what, if anything, would be recommended for treatment. Good luck.
Are these realistic results? What specific procedure would be recommended?
Realistic Results
Sep 2, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry and photos. It’s not really possible to estimate what your results might be based on just the photos. An in person exam would be required and your desired results could be addressed at that time.
Currently there are several options for the ‘hip dips’ that include injectable fillers or body fat. To address the potential Rx of the breasts measurements are a necessity and coupled with the options available a treatment plan could be formulated.
It would be best to…
Facelift or filler: which would you suggest to give me a younger look?
Seeking a younger look
Jul 16, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry. It would be necessary to se your photo with your facial expression at rest. I expect that you will be a candidate for a facelift to improve on your neck contour and the cheek- nasolabial fold sagging rather than the fillers. The problem with fillers is they are frequently overused and leave the patient with a rounded facial appearance.
I recommend you obtain a consultation w a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and maybe evan a second opinion.
Good luck.

Will a lower facelift or neck lift fix my sagging crepey skin?
Face & Neck Lift
Jun 22, 2022
Thank you for your inquiry. The photos p[resented demonstrate laxity and redundancy in the neck area as well as the downward shifting of the corners of the mouth. Naturally an examination would be needed to say definitively what the best option would be. You do appear to be an excellent candidate for a face and neck rejuvenation. I cannot address the comment that you are not a candidate for a neck lift from the photos.
How to fix outer thighs/hips indentions after lipo 15 years ago?
Post lipo depressions / irregularities
Apr 11, 2022
There are some things that can be done w long lasting injectable fillers to help smooth out irregularities which have resulted from liposuction or even surgical interventions (BBL, Tummy tuck, etc).
These are done on an outpatient basis and do not require sedation and the results are noticed immediately.
