Very bad results after breast lift. What treatment, or mix of treatments would be the best?
Aug 14, 2019
Hello!  Thank you for your question!  I am sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with the results. The good news is that significant can be made, however, a surgical revision is necessary. Nothing short of simply redoing the lift would suffice. This would allow all of your widened and hypertrophic scars to have better appearance, decrease the size of the areolae, and shorten the distance at the lower pole to improve shape and overall appearance. Unfortunately, it is difficult to lower the l...

Do I need a lift or will an augmentation be enough?
Aug 3, 2019
Hello!  Thank you for your question!  Given that your breasts do not have significant drooping, a lift is not needed. The nipple-areolar complex appears to be in adequate position. Best wishes!

How saggy are my breasts? Would you suggest a breast lift?
Aug 1, 2019
Hello!  Thank you for your question!  Given your photo, I would highly suggest a breast lift. Your photo demonstrates significant dropping of the breast. The mastopexy would raise the breast to increase fullness and give perkiness and also reshape the breast, also raising the nipple to the appropriate position on the chest. Best wishes!

Hello!  Thank you for your question!  Fillers or fat grafting would meet your expectations of what you desire. Injections to your areas of concern should ameliorate your concerns. Seek consultation for this and go over the different options. Best wishes!

Is this a possible rupture of silicone implant? Dr doesn't think there's a rupture. Thoughts? 8
Is this a possible rupture of silicone implant? Dr doesn't think there's a rupture. Thoughts? 8 months post op.
Jun 15, 2019
Hello!  Thank you for your question!  While certainly possible, it would be very unlikely to have a rupture if the implant(s) at only 8 months. Your description and your photos do not give any indication of a rupture. If your surgeon felt otherwise as well during the examination, it would also give more support to suggest all normal healing.  If you still are having concerns, a MRI would be Thebes best imaging modality to evaluate the integrity of your implant(s) an de you could request to ...
Is it possible to have pec muscles repaired after bilateral capsulectomy?
Is it possible to have pec muscles repaired after bilateral capsulectomy?
Jun 9, 2019
Hello! Thank you for your question! It is a matter of surgeon preference as well as what is seen during your procedure that will determine whether or not a complete capsulectomy is performed. I have always favored a complete capsulectomy vía en bloc method.  Although a more complex and skilled procedure, I believe it to be the best method, especially given concerns today  A true en bloc will keep the implant and all contents within as one piece throughout the removal without violating the c...

When to schedule my first consultation if I'm still on my weight loss journey?
Jun 5, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos!  I hope that these answers help!   The mommy makeover is typically contouring if the body and breasts - the tummy tuck is an excellent method for shaping the belly and create a flatter and sculpted abdomen after the procedure.  Congratulations on your determination for weight loss!   I do believe that you would be an excellent candidate for this procedure in order to remove the excess skin/soft tissue of your lower abdomen and contour the areas of yo...

Does Botox have to be diluted? What's the lowest amount of saline to go into Botox?
May 29, 2019
Yes. Botox, and all similar, come as a powder. They must be reconstituted with a solution. Saline is recommended. 
Will my belly button ever go back to an innie or will it stay an outie?
Will my belly button ever go back to an innie or will it stay an outie?
May 20, 2019
Hello!  Thank you for your question.  At this time, it is unlikely that your belly button will change much at this point. As the swelling subsides and everything settles, the overall contour may still improve.  However, given the procedure that you had, the appearance of your are of concern will change little. Discuss with your surgeon and some options. Best wishes!
What's the difference in breast augmentation in women who have no kids vs women who do and have
What's the difference in breast augmentation in women who have no kids vs women who do and have breastfed?
May 18, 2019
Hello! Thank you for your question. In general, implant size does not correlate with bra cup size.  There truly is no difference in the procedure itself between these two groups of women.  Age, gravity, weight gain/loss, and pregnancy contribute to the dropping of breasts and atrophy of breast tissue over time.  Certainly, during pregnancy, the breasts engorge often resulting in larger overall stretch during this time. So, in opposition to those never been pregnant, it is not common to have...

I'm interested in a tummy tuck without muscle repair. Thoughts?
May 18, 2019
Thank you for your question! I hope that these answers help!  It looks like a tummy tuck would be the procedure that you would need to meet your goals.  The decision on muscle plication is certainly your choice, but is often performed, as muscle separation is not uncommon, especially after pregnancy.  Tummy tuck is an excellent method for shaping the belly and create a flatter and sculpted abdomen after the procedure.  It sounds like you would be an excellent candidate for the full tummy ...
