Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Persistent Hematomas After Tummy Tuck and Lipo
Hematoma 2 months after a tummy tuck
Jul 30, 2017
What you think is a hematoma is most likely a seroma. Seromas can be drained percutaneously in the office. You may have to do it several times before it resolves. If it's still persistent, you will have to surgically have the seroma capsule excised.
Labiaplasty Recovery - How Long Does It Take?
Recovery after Labiaplasty
Jul 17, 2017
Labiaplasty procedure is usually associated with less pain and faster recovery than most other cosmetic surgeries we perform. Ice packs during the first 24 hours. Stay off your feet and avoid prolonged sitting for the first 48 hours. Wear a pad and secure the pad with an underwear for the first week. No strenuous exercising for 4 weeks. No sexual activity of 6 weeks.
Most bruising and swelling resolves within the first 2 weeks but the residual...
Tummy Tuck Scars
Tummy tuck scars
Jul 15, 2017
I believe concealing tummy tuck scars in a strategic manner is a vital aspect of getting a good cosmetic outcome after an abdominoplasty. Too many times, I have seen high-riding lower abdominal scars that patients want to have revised because they are unable to hide them behind their bikini underwear. Another tell-tale sign that someone had a tummy tuck is a belly button scar that is clearly visible on the abdominal wall. Both of these problems can be easily avoided by...
How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
Swelling after Tummy Tuck
Jul 15, 2017
Thank you for the question. Most swelling (90%) resolves within the first 3 months. It may take longer to resolve if concomitant liposuction is performed.
Do need an arm lift or can I just get liposuction? I lost over 80 pounds
Arm Lift vs. Arm Liposuction
Jul 15, 2017
Thank you for the great question! I get asked this question quite a bit in my practice, whether it be for treatment of the arms or the thighs. Generally speaking, when you lose massive amount of weight such as in your case, inevitably, you will have excess skin that will require surgical excision. Looking at the photo you posted, you would benefit from an arm lift procedure which will remove the excess hanging skin and will contour your upper arm nicely. Liposuction...
Had an arm lift 05/12/17 and have a very hard block on my arm. Is this normal or is there anything I ca
Hardness after arm lift
Jul 12, 2017
Hello there, although it is difficult to tell based on the photos, it is not normal to have a large area of "hardness" after an arm lift 2 months post op. This could be a consolidated hematoma, lymphocele, and less likely, a large area of fat necrosis. Either way, this is not a normal finding. Please consult with your plastic surgeon so he could perform a more thorough exam and identify the source of the hard mass.
How long does it take for surgical glue to fall off?
Surgical glue for tummy tuck incisions
May 24, 2017
I typically use dermabond over my tummy tuck incisions. It tends to flake off at around 2-3 weeks. I ask my patients to peel it off gradually starting at 3 weeks if they can.
Purpose of Binder After Tummy Tuck?
Binder after a tummy tuck
May 24, 2017
There are no scientific studies to show that usage of a binder after a tummy tuck is beneficial in any way. Having said that, patients feel more comfortable wearing a binder. I place a 4-panel velcro binder on my patients for about 4 weeks. I noticed that it helps with swelling and potentially minimizing seroma complications. Of course, I experience is anecdotal only.
How Soon After Surgery Can I Start Scar Treatment?
Scar management after a tummy tuck
May 24, 2017
Scar massage - Start at 3 weeks after surgery 4 times day
Silicone sheeting - Start at 3 weeks and continue for 4-6 months
Avoid sun exposure during scar maturation phase
Remember scars take 1 to 2 years to remodel into their final state.
How to Convince Insurance Company to Cover Tummy Tuck?
Tummy tuck insurance coverage
May 24, 2017
I have never seen a Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty procedure being covered by insurance as it's considered cosmetic. A panniculectomy, which is a very different kind of procedure that addresses excess hanging lower abdominal skin may be covered as a medically necessary procedure with adequate documentation of the size of the pannus, and rash or recurrent infections within the folds.
How Long Should I Leave my Dissolvable Stitch Alone?
Suture spitting after tummy tuck
May 24, 2017
Suture spitting is not uncommon. Sometimes sutures can find their way out of the incision and can be quite irritating to the patient. The best way to deal with them is to see your plastic surgeon to have them removed. When my patients complain of sutures sticking out, I try to take them out as soon as possible.
How Much Does a Tummy Tuck Cost?
Cost of a Tummy Tuck
May 24, 2017
A tummy tuck can cost anywhere from $5000 to $15000 depending on geographic location. The costs typically include surgeon's fee, facility fee, and anesthesia fee. The national average surgeon's fee is around $5000.
Will Breasts Sag if I Decide to Explant?
Will Breasts Sag if I decide to explant?
May 24, 2017
It depends on a number of factors. But long story short, if you had the implants for a long period of time and if are of advanced age, there is good chance your breasts will sag after implant removal. Some patients are OK with that look while others may request for a lift procedure with or without reimplantation.
How Much Does Breast Explantation Cost?
Breast Implant Explantation
May 24, 2017
Ruptured breast implants or capsular contracture-related implant issues are typically covered by insurance for implant removal. This is the case even if the original implants has been placed for cosmetic reasons. They obviously will not cover re-implantation for cosmetic reasons.
Breast Lift versus Breast Augmentation
Breast Lift vs. Breast Augmentation
Apr 15, 2017
A Breast Lift and Breast Augmentation are very different procedures and are done for very different reasons. A lift is indicated when your breasts and nipples are drooping and need the 'lift' necessary to bring the nipple and breast tissue back to a more optimal position. Broadly speaking, there are three different types of incisions made for a lift. For minimal ptosis or drooping, an incision around the areola should suffice. For moderate drooping, a lollipop...
