Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Is it safe to have a mastopexy and tummy tuck if I have FND (functional neurological disorder)?
Dear Me lite
Feb 15, 2022
Your safety is first. I would not recommend such an operation with an unstable seizure disorder.
Perhaps you need a more thorough neurological evaluation.
BEST WISHES.
Under eye area looks terrible and filler not working - what are my opinions?
under eye areas
Feb 15, 2022
You need a detailed evaluation with an oculoplastic surgeon. I would
not recommend anymore fillers in this area.
Am I a candidate for a facelift?
Am I too youg for a facelift?
Jul 19, 2021
Thank you for your question and congratulations on your achievements. Is not easy to pull
out of the situations you have been through. Although I could not find your age in the text, I
can see your concerns but only with a personal evaluation, definitive recommendations can
be offered. Judging just by the picture I see the mild asymmetry in the brows and eyelids as well as some facial loss of volume. I would consider injectables
as a first approach. If that's satisfactory it may buy you...
F26 pre-op no kids: Question about shape of ribcage and outward pointing nipples. Advice?
BAM in lateral positioned breasts
Jun 11, 2021
When you augment the breast volume it will augment the characteristics
of the breast in general. It will also potentially augment differences between
both breasts. Best wishes.
No such thing as low, moderate, high profile?
BAM vs Breast lift
Jun 11, 2021
If you like your size, in view that you already had a breast reduction,
you may consider just a lift using the old incisions with or without a
small implant. A large breast implant may be more volume than what
you are looking for. Best wishes.
Are my breasts sagging? Do I need a lift?
Are my breasts sagging ?
May 27, 2021
Thank you for your question. Sagging is multifactorial. At your age and in the
absence of pregnancy your breast tissue may be accomodating to its normality.
Some asymmetry is normal and the nipple position seems to be at or above the
inframammary fold sio it is probably not a true ptosis. Pseudoptosis may be present.
You may be a good candidate for BAM to improve the appearance. Consult with
a board-certified plastic surgeon for your best options. Best wishes.
How is performing breast surgery on tuberous breast different to a regular breast augmentation?
BAM in tuberous breasts
May 27, 2021
Thank you for your question. A tuberous breast has a narrow base. It can variate
from mild to severe. For an optimal result, an effort should be made to widen the base of the breast during augmentation. This will depend on the degree of tuberosity. Also, the type of implants to be
chosen must be considered accordingly. Seek expert consultations with board-certified plastic
surgeons in your area. Best wishes.
Is Mentor or polytech implants best for anatomical implants?
Mentor vs Polytech implants
May 27, 2021
Hello and thank you for your question.
In the USA polytech implants are not approved for use but the Mentor devices have
been used for many years. Hope this helps in your decision.
Best wishes.
Will I qualify for a tummy tuck and lipo 360 if I am pre-diabetic and had a hysterectomy in the past
Am I a tummy tuck candidate
May 24, 2021
You seem to be an excellent candidate for a tummy tuck with or without liposuction.
Posterior trunk pictures may be helpful to assess the liposuction needs.
Best wishes.
If I decide to do SMAS lifting will it speed up the aging process because of dissection of primary c
Face lift at 28 y/o
May 24, 2021
In general, I would advise against a facelift procedure at a young age. It will not
accelerate aging but there may not be enough anatomical signs to make it worthwhile.
A few good pictures may help our recommendations. Minimal or noninvasive procedures
may be beneficial. Best wishes.
Am I a candidate for tummy tuck type with 1 diabetes (under control)?
Tummy tuck on Type I Diabetes
May 24, 2021
You will require medical clearance and special precautions and monitoring during surgery
but otherwise, you seem to be a good candidate for an abdominoplasty. Consult with a board
certified plastic surgeon for risks and options. Best wishes.
Can orthodontic work correct my chin and smile projection?
chin and smile projection
May 10, 2021
Thank you for your question. Orthodontics will help with the occlusion of the
teeth but I am not sure if it will provide enough chin projection to satisfy you.
I suggest a consultation with a good orthodontist and a maxillofacial surgeon
to determine your options and risks. Best wishes.
Why surgery do I need to correct my eye symmetry?
eye assymetry
May 10, 2021
Thank you for your question. You need an in-person evaluation with a board-certified
plastic surgeon to identify in detail your concerns and determine what are your options.
Consider that every person has some degree of asymmetry and that is considered normal.
Best wishes.
Tummy tuck, mini tummy tuck, would it even help?
Tummy tuck
May 3, 2021
Thanks for your question. A combination of liposuction a/o abdominoplasty
may address your concerns but the final decision requires a personal consultation
with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Best wishes.
Do I need blepharoplasty or Botox?
Blpharoplasty or Botox
May 3, 2021
Thanks for your question. A personal evaluation by
a board-certified plastic surgeon is recommended
before final recommendations. Based just on your
photos it may be reasonable to start with Botox.
Best wishes
