Would I still have to lose weight to drop my BMI or can the surgery be done successfully? I am 5'11 with a BMI of 48
Aug 12, 2019
Hello!
Thank you for your question. I would not recommend surgery at your current BMI of 48. You are at higher risk of complications. I recommend having your BMI under 30 before considering elective surgery. Having a BMI closer to your ideal BMI will not only decrease your risk of complications, but it will also likely lead to a better aesthetic outcome. Best of luck!

What can I do to fix my unattached earlobes?
Aug 12, 2019
Hello!
Thank you for your question. It is possible to reduce the amount of lobe you have hanging, in an earlobe reduction procedure. This can be done under local anesthesia. I recommend you have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best of luck!
Dr Ford

Why is my earlobe on my right ear so swollen and deformed three years after my ear being pierced?
Aug 12, 2019
Hello!
Thank you for your question and photos. You are likely having more scar tissue form on the right side, compared to the left. This is probably the beginning of a keloid scar. I recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and treatment. Best of luck!
Dr Ford

Is it considered ‘normal’ for swelling to increase extensively 6 months post-op after a full tummy tuck?
Jul 30, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. It is not normal to have an increase in swelling that far after a tummy tuck. I recommend you see your surgeon for an examination. They may order an ultrasound or other imaging to see if there is an actual collection of fluid. Best of luck,
Dr Ford

Do I have Capsular Contracture?
Jul 30, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. Based on your description, it does not seem like you have capsular contracture, but this is best diagnosed based on a physical exam with your surgeon. You would feel one or both breasts becoming more firm if you had this condition. I recommend you follow up with your surgeon as scheduled. Best of luck,
Dr Ford

I’m turning 22 very soon and plan to have a breast augmentation. Are doctors hesitant to do surgery on someone so young?
Jul 10, 2019
Hello!
Thanks for your question. Breast augmentation patients around your age are very common. I recommend you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a full consultation and examination. As long as this goes well, and you are healthy, I do not see why you wouldn't also be a good candidate for an augmentation. Best of luck!

DVT ten years ago during my first pregnancy in ‘09. No complications since. Can I safely proceed with my tummy tuck procedure?
Jul 1, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. Based on your information, you should be able to have a tummy tuck procedure. You should be evaluated by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, who will assess your individual risk for developing a postoperative blood clot. Based on that information and your history, they may recommend a blood thinner for after surgery. They may even want you to get clearance from a hematologist prior to surgery. Best of luck!

1 week PO. Did my ear lobe repair go wrong? Will it look better in a month or always look like I have two ear lobes?
Jul 1, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. I do see your concerns in your photos. I would recommend waiting at least another 6-8 weeks before evaluating the final results. Your swelling needs to go down more and the scars heal better. Then, if there are still concerns, you should discuss them with your surgeon. If needed, a small revision could be done under local anesthesia. Best of luck!

Is 65 years old to old to have a mastopexy?
Jul 1, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. I'm not sure what conversation you had with your surgeon- perhaps they suggested waiting and doing the lift at another surgery? Sometimes surgeries are done this way to minimize issues with blood flow to the nipples after surgery. Regardless, age alone is typically not a deal-breaker for surgery. What matters more is a patient's overall health status. Hope this helps.

Jul 1, 2019
Hello!
Thank you for your question, and congratulations on your recent surgery. It is very common to experience soreness in certain areas of the breasts following surgery, even if it's just on one side. I do recommend speaking to someone at your surgeon's office to discuss with them in more detail. Best of luck!

Does this appear to be tuberous breast deformity?
Does this appear to be tuberous breast deformity?
Jun 3, 2019
Hello,
Thank you for your question. Based on your picture, it does not look like you have a tuberous breast. It appears you most likely have a larger asymmetry between your breasts (almost everyone has some asymmetry). I recommend seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a full consultation and examination, to discuss your surgical options. Best of luck!

Jun 3, 2019
Hello,
Scars after surgery tend to be pink or red for about 6 months before fading out better with time. Please try to be patient as I think you will still likely have improvement over time! Best of luck.

What do you advise to give me thinner arms?
What do you advise to give me thinner arms?
May 15, 2019
Hello!
Thank you for your question and photos. Based on your photos, your arms appear to have an excess of both skin and fatty tissue. This is best addressed with a brachioplasty (arm lift surgery). This surgery helps remove both skin and fat to improve the shape of the arms. I recommend you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a full consult with examination. Best of luck!
Dr Ford

Is extreme nerve irritation after brachioplasty normal 5 weeks post-op?
May 15, 2019
Hello,
Congratulations on your recent surgery! The nerve irritation you describe is common during this period. You are still early in your recovery, and I expect it will improve with time. I recommend you follow up with your Plastic Surgeon as planned. Best of luck!

Love handles after TT - How can I get rid of them?
May 8, 2019
Hello,
Congratulations on your surgery! Even though it's been two months, your body is still healing and changing from surgery. I recommend waiting at least 6-12 months before any other procedures. You will be able to see the final results at that time (as you likely still have a little swelling present now). You can then discuss liposuction to help improve your love handles. Best of luck!
