Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Upper belly bulge: I got a TT about 7 weeks ago.
UPPER TUMMY BULGE SOON AFTER TUMMY TUCK
Aug 5, 2018
You will need to see your surgeon for the answer to this one.  It could be fluid, retained fat, or muscle tightening sutures that are failing.  My guess is that is one of the first two which are easily dealt with.
My stomach is larger than before tummy tuck/lipo, what's going on?
NO CHANGE WITH TUMMY TUCK AND LIP
Aug 5, 2018
That's a tough one...a pre-op photo would give the answer.  If you don't have a photo, get one from your surgeon.  From looking at the photo provided, your tummy tuck might be a good one.  But there is a lot of liposuction that could still be done to give you the result you want.  Remember, the tummy tuck only tightens the skin and muscle but requires liposuction to really give a reductions in size and nice contour.
Can face lift threads be removed after 15 years?
THREADLIFT...THREADS GETTING INFECTED
Aug 5, 2018
The short answer is that they can be removed and definitely should be removed.  I performed several of these during that time period and although the results were OK and problems few, I was never happy enough to continue offering it to my patients.  Over the years, there have been frequent "improvements" and changes but they are all variations of the same tired attempt to mimic a mini lift, which in itself is a debatable procedure.Having performed hundreds of all types of lifts, both r...
Rhinoplasty: I was wondering what was wrong with my nose?
AESTHETIC NASAL ISSUE
Aug 5, 2018
Nose evaluation is hugely dependent on personal consolation.  And the photo would have to include your upper lip and better yet, the lower third of your face from the top of your nose to the bottom of your chin.  It does appear that you have an elevated nostril that can possible be disguised but not completely "cure".  Best to consult with a surgeon experienced in cosmetic nasal surgery.  Look at their photographs!
Will I be OK with liposuction 360 or will I need a tummy tuck?
TUMMY TUCK VS LIPOSUCTION, OR BOTH
Aug 5, 2018
To get the figure you want, liposuction will handle all but the lower tummy.  You have muscle laxity and undoubtedly muscle separation.  I would recommend a tummy tuck for best results since liposuction alone won't get rid of half of the tummy bulge.  Moreover, the skin laxity and stretch marks may leave a less than pleasing result.  If you are ok with the stretch marks, tummy bulge, and looseness of the skin, you could simply do suction.  It's a matter of your limitations of time off and ...
5 days post BA bruising normal?
BRUISING AFTER BAM
Aug 5, 2018
Bruising in small areas is not uncommon after breast surgery.  However, if it expands and is accompanied by pain and/or swelling, you need to see your surgeon immediately.  Yours is not worrisome as far as I can tell from the photo.
What procedure is recommended for my stubborn lower belly fat?
LOWER ABDOMINAL FAT IN FIT FEMALE
Aug 5, 2018
Without photos no solid answer is possible.  If you're looking for something "non-invasive", CoolSculpting" might do the trick.  It usually takes 3 treatments for the average "little tummy bump".  The fat is rendered useless for transfer to the buttocks.  We perform that all day in our medical spa.  However, liposuction is a much more powerful tool and the fat can be preserved and transferred to your buttocks, which is what the modern BBL procedure is.
Mommy makeover on 6/22, worried that I now have a muffin top and belly is uneven. Is this normal? (
ONE MONTH POST TUMMY TUCK...ISSUES?
Aug 5, 2018
In my experience, a month after a tummy tuck will give you a really good look at what your final result is, though healing is not complete and swelling is not totally down.  You didn't mention if any liposuction is done but this is hugely important when doing a TT in all but the most lean individuals.  Tummy tucks get rid of excess skin and associated fat, but liposuction is the big size reducer.  My opinion is that you will be unsatisfied with a persistent muffin top unless you ult...
Am I a good candidate for areola reduction surgery? I am 22 years old.
AREOLAR REDUCTIONS
Aug 5, 2018
The areola comes in all sizes, and shapes and you're a candidate by virtue of wanting one.  The areola can be reduced by a given amount depending upon your skin tension and desires.   However, for more severe reductions, a breast lift would be necessary to prevent severe scaring around the areola.  If I were doing the areola reduction in your case, I might recommend lifting your breast at the same time (again, not necessary, just often better).  The recovery is the same and the scar around ...
Breast lift and implants 4 years ago. I have 450cc saline which I feel are too big and heading to m
DOWNSIZING IMPLANTS
Aug 5, 2018
Because I've been in practice for nearly 30 years, a lot of my patients have had children, gained or lost weight, or changed lifestyles.  Therefore, I now do as many secondary procedures (exchange and/or lift) as I do new breast augmentations.  I could answer your question better with photographs, or more precisely, with a consultation.  Although occasionally time consuming, exchanging implants can be a relatively easy experience.  If your natural protective layer of scar tissue from the o...
Downsizing implant options? I had 495 ultra high profile silicone implants placed in January.
DOWNSIZING IMPLANTS
Jul 23, 2018
The plan certainly makes sense if all the right parts are in play.  Of course your surgeon would know best.  As for the size, 100cc will make a significant difference if you don't have a lot of breast tissue to begin with because the percentage of volume reduction would be greater if you have less tissue.  I'm assuming that your surgeon thinks the 385 would still give you enough fullness that your skin envelope could handle it without significant sagging as long as he removed some skin fro...
9 months post op from TT, white pus coming out of incision with hard scar
PUS IN TT INCISION
Jul 23, 2018
That could be pus or it could be the white from the steroid injection.  If there's pus it's probably from a suture that hasn't dissolved completely.  These areas are usually inflamed and a little red.  If it's left over steroid from an injection, it would have minimal pain and the material is more white.  Without photos or a better history, it's hard to tell.  Best to see your surgeon!
To achieve a smaller and more contoured jaw line, would I need a chin lipo?
JAWLINE PROFILE IMPROVEMENT
Jul 23, 2018
We would need to see profile photos to see if a chin implant is even possible or desirable.  From the front view, it appears unlikely to be helpful.  It is possible however, to narrow your chin where the arrows are pointing by using a surgical instrument to remove some of the bone along your jaw.  If your chin itself is receded on the profile view, the implant you asked about would help as well, but not by itself.
12 weeks post op extended tummy tuck with lipo of the flanks and abdomen. Will this indentation on
INDENTATION AFTER LIPO/TT
Jul 23, 2018
I'm afraid that the likelihood that the indentation will go away on it's own is close to zero.  However, that doesn't mean it can't be remedied.  It appears that the area surrounding it could be suctioned to help disguise the depression, and the the indentation could be grafted with your own fat.  I hope your surgeon is familiar with these techniques and is willing to help you.  
Do I need a TT revision? I'm almost 24 months post op.
TUMMY TUCK REVISION
Jul 23, 2018
I'll be you would do well with liposuction alone.  There are some issues with the scar and the alignment that could be improved but that is another question.  You could use a lot of liposuction to decrease your overall size and improve your shape.  I doubt this would create a scenario where you would need to totally revise the tummy tuck, depending upon how your skin feels on exam.  Some surgeons are reluctant to do a lot of liposuction at the same time as the tummy tuck.  I typically suctio...
