Answer Snippet
Why might some doctors not want to do a Transaxillary Breast Augmentation?
Transaxillary Endoscopic Breast Augmentation
Aug 25, 2021
Hello,

The most common method for placing breast implants is known as “inframammary”, or when a scar is placed under the breast along the fold. This leaves a visible scar underneath the breasts. Another method for breast augmentation is transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation. This is when an incision is made inside the armpit and the implant is placed through there.

The transaxillary method requires a lot of skill and expertise from a surgeon. It requires learning a new technique…

How painful is Breast Augmentation?
Breast Augmentation Pain
Aug 25, 2021
Hello,

A common complaint about pain from my patients following breast augmentation is muscle soreness in the chest, as if they did a lot of push ups. This occurs when the breast implant is placed under the muscle, because the muscle is injured during surgery and will feel sore afterwards. What often helps minimize this pain is to avoid any pectoral muscle-building workouts for 6 weeks before surgery. That way the muscles are not tight and the patient might experience less soreness…

Is liposuction the only way to permanently remove fat cells?
Liposuction vs CoolSculpting
Aug 25, 2021
Hello,

I would recommend one of two options for fat removal: coolsculpting and liposuction.

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical treatment that uses cold temperatures to kill fat cells in a certain area. It is recommended for people who do not wish to have a surgical procedure. We recommend multiple treatments to an area you wish to reduce, and most people see about a 20% reduction of fat in that area.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes fat cells. It provides more guaranteed…

Will I gain weight after liposuction?
Fatty Proportions
Aug 25, 2021
Hello,

It is important to remember that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but a body contouring procedure. While you are removing fat cells from your body, the ultimate goal of liposuction is to improve stubborn areas of fat that bulge out, not to lose significant amount of weight.

Where you gain weight depends on your natural fatty proportions. Some people naturally have more fat cells in their abdomen, which is where they will see the most enlargement if they gain weight. Other…

Fat removal in stubborn area. What can I do to get rid of it?
Liposuction of Upper Bra Fat
Aug 25, 2021
Hello!

The area that you are referring to is known as the “upper bra fat”. It is the bulge under your shoulder and near your armpit that you see when you are wearing tight clothing.
The upper bra fat is often treated with liposuction. Liposuction is a procedure where stubborn fat areas are surgically removed, improving body contour. If you prefer a non-surgical procedure, you could also try CoolSculpting. This is a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure that uses cold temperatures to kill fat…

Morpheus8

Hi there, Morpheus is a micro needling device that uses radiofrequency energy to both tighten skin and to burn fat.

This treatment is usually given in 3 sessions (each 4-6 weeks apart to allow collagen to form in between). Currently Morpheus8 can be used up to depths of 4 mm and Morpheus Body can be used up to depths of 8mm in the US. When used at…
Would Botox for the masseters help slim down my face and give a more symmetrical appearance
Muscle Relaxation
Feb 5, 2021
Botulinum toxin works by blocking the release of acetylcholine from your nerves to your muscle through the inhibition of a protein called SNAP-25, which thus inhibits muscle contraction.

Hope this helps!

Downtime is minimal; for most of my patients if they have the procedure on Friday, they are able to return to work on Monday….
