Worried about final results, got 350 CC silicone implants

You’re looking good so far
Dec 16, 2015

Hi Eloise91. I agree with my colleagues who have already answered and I think you’re doing just fine. You are still swollen and there is a lot of settling still to come with your new breasts. Gravity has work to do in this situation! Make sure to follow your surgeon’s advice carefully in terms of post operative support with a garment or bra. Has there been any direction on a garment or band to push the breasts down a bit? If not, it might be useful to ask about that as it can help to ensure…

After Tummy Tuck, is it normal to get swollen near the scar area ?

Post surgery swelling is entirely normal
Dec 16, 2015

Hi Lita13. What you describe is totally normal! You are still in the early part of the healing process. It will take a full year before everything completely settles down and it will be several months before you see a complete end to the swelling. Everywhere there was an incision in your surgery needs to heal and every tiny blood vessel or lymph channel that was cut now needs to regenerate and find a new way to deliver the blood and lymph where it needs to go. That takes time. Plus, when you…

Do I require a lift with my implants?

Breast augmentation with asymmetric breast lift after 1 child and weight loss
Mar 4, 2015

Hi Mcarthur,From the limited view in your photo I would say that you will require a lift to both sides in addition to placement of implants. The lift required on your left breast is clearly more significant, but I would also lift the right side via very similar incisions. This will give you symmetry of scars, but also allow your surgeon to ensure symmetry of areolar diameters.Its likely that your scars on the right would be in the ‘lollipop’ pattern i.e. with a scar…

I have uneven breasts. I’m 21, never been pregnant. It affects me badly. I want to reduc

Breast size asymmetry is actually quite normal
Mar 4, 2015

Hi Amoosh,Breast size asymmetry is totally normal. The un-photoshopped photo of Keira Knightley from her piece in Interview Magazine (August 2014) shows that even very beautiful women can have breast asymmetry.That being said, some women have breasts with size asymmetry that is not tolerable and which can cause physical and/or psychological problems.For these women there are definitely surgical interventions which can address the problem. Without seeing you or examining…

Side boob problem 3 months on

Persistent excess skin and/or fat at side of breast post breast reduction surgery
Mar 4, 2015

Hi Cuttie,It depends how long post surgery you are…?I would wait at least 6 months before coming to any definite conclusions about your result. However, if there is persistence of excess skin and fat at the side of each breast then maybe further work will be required. If its just an excess of fat and or breast tissue then perhaps liposuction to the side of each breast up towards the axilla (armpit) area could be the solution. On the other hand, if there is a lot of excess skin in the area…

Are there any scar creams or silicone scar treatments you would recommend?

scar management
Mar 4, 2015

Hi Gigi,As my colleagues have suggested there are very many available silicone-based scar management products. These are especially indicated in patients who have a history of, or who are prone to keloid or hypertrophic scarring. They may also be useful in all patients with post operative scars, but there is not much evidence for this. What does seem to be true is that they are very unlikely to do any harm. The merits of one product over the other are difficult to support scientifically so I…

Breast revision surgery after unsuccessful closed capsulectomy. What are the chances of

Capsular contracture
Aug 13, 2014

Hi Diva07,I’m sorry to hear that you developed capsular contracture and that you eventually required open capsulectomy and replacement of implants.I agree with the previous answers. Overall you are probably at an increased chance of developing a capsular contracture compared to a woman receiving implants for the first time. Its very difficult to quantify the level of risk however. If your new implants have a textured surface then they probably have a slightly lower chance…
