Question
Answer Header & Date

When to remove belly button sutures after a tummy tuck? It may be infected
Belly Button healing
May 29, 2019
The photo provided does not appear to be infected, however redness is part of healing as the tissue is healing and the sutures placed in your belly button usually do not cause infection unlike deeper sutures that may. Either way, following your surgeons instructions would be best.
How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
How to reduce swelling after tummy tuck
May 9, 2019
Most swelling after tummy tucks are surgically completed, are swollen in the upper and lower part of the abdomen for 2-3 weeks. For weeks 4-6, the remaining area of swelling is below the belly button but above the incision site waiting for complete healing of the incision. Things you can do to decrease the swelling include: compression garments which I provide for you and in some cases a form fitted abdominal binder. Early motion and…
Downtime after facelift or lower facelift?
Facelift turn around time
Mar 20, 2018
The typical down time before you can go back to normal work is 5-7 days, since all the sutures are dissolvable. All of the incisions are hidden and with minimal bruising returning to work is quick.
How often do Breast Reduction Patients get Fat Necrosis?
Fat Necrosis less common with Breast Reduction Surgery
Mar 19, 2018
Fat necrosis is not common, but I do see it in some patients who have very large breast reductions performed. Some of the key factors to decrease these from happening is to be with a lower BMI, not be a smoker. Despite these factors fat necrosis can still occur but is not difficult to improve.
Liposuction for dog ears after Tummy Tuck?
Liposuction can be done on dog ears after tummy tuck
Dec 20, 2009
It is not too uncommon a problem after a tummy tuck.  Lipo can be performed without any problems now and with good results to flatten the fullness of the lower abdomen and hip area.

Will insurance cover Breast Reduction for D cup breasts?
Breast Reduction and Insurance coverage
Dec 20, 2009
Although insurance should give you the benefits you deserve, the results that you may need are best served with a plastic surgeon who performs the surgery commonly, than by a insurance network physicians. Many patients have tried to get their procedure covered but are met with fairly unintelligent blocking mechanisms like weight criteria and gram removal. Most of these delineations don’t really help the individual who is trying to get covered and so you will be best inclined to chose a…
Plastic surgery in Argentina?
Tread carefully
Apr 1, 2009
Surgical and medical treatments abroad are truly much more competitive when it comes to cost, but the body lifting procedure is one that has enough challenges in the USA. I have treated a fair number of complications that patients suffered from upon returning back to the United States. Many people are unaware of the lack of insurance coverage after cosmetic surgery, which is only offered to board certified plastic surgeons for a period of time after patient surgery.
Even though you may…
Will I need breast lift with implant downsizing?
Breast lift usually not needed with downsizing
Mar 30, 2009
The most important issue with downsizing is skin laxity and breast tissue laxity after implant removal. Most often, larger implant downsizing results in a smaller lift, but your situation is different. You will respond well with implant downsizing alone. Best wishes.
How long does Sculptra last in the hands?
Sculptra can last 1-2 years
Mar 17, 2009
Sculptra if used with the recommended treatment schedule of two to three sessions can last up to 2 years; however, fat injection can also do the same. I find that use of spun fat and careful placement in one session has lasted for a minimum of 3 years.
Do saline breast implants look and feel natural?
Either implants will work
Mar 17, 2009
If you are going to have either implant placed under the muscle, both will feel very natural provided you are not having a very large implant placed behind the muscle ie. greater than 450cc. The point of breast enhancement it to be natural, and both give you the feeling of natural projection provided you pick an implant size for your height and chest size.
How much does Botox cost?
Botox costs somewhere between $8-14 per unit
Mar 17, 2009
Many people are worried about too much or too little Botox for giving the desired results, but you will need Botox for your forehead and wrinkle lines, which will be about $400, give or take $50 roughly.
Anything more than that, you may need to something more than just Botox. Best luck.
will exercise help shrink and lift my breasts?
Surgery and exercise will both help, but not without each other
Mar 17, 2009
If you are content with your breast size and are looking for just repositioning them to a higher position on your chest then a breast lift is most helpful. It has minimal down time and works to only remove excess skin. Exercise alone will not be helpful as the weight of your breast has diminished the ligament support to your chest wall. Weight loss and exercise are helpful for tone, but not tightness. Good luck.
