Statement: Dr. Lisa Cassileth is a board-certified, Ivy-League-trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon, specializing in corrective cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery. She is the past Chief of Plastic Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, a position she held for two consecutive terms. Her advanced, minimal incision surgeries give her patients exceptionally beautiful, natural results.

She is a leader in the field of breast revision surgery – correcting previous surgeries that other doctors have been unable to fix. Patients from all over the world seek her out for her one-stage breast reconstruction which allows mastectomy patients to wake up from surgery with their breasts intact, rather than face multiple surgeries.

Her friendly staff and her welcoming Beverly Hills offices make patients and their families feel comfortable and safe.

In 2015, fueled by her long-standing passion for providing excellent breast healthcare, Dr. Cassileth founded Bedford Breast Center. The team at the breast center specializes in nipple-sparing mastectomy, minimal-incision lumpectomy, mammography, and genetic testing in a beautiful state-of-the-art facility in Beverly Hills.

dented nipple after gynecomastia
Feb 24, 2019

Time to massage! It pretty typical to the scar to tether in gynecomastia surgery. You need to massage, massage, massage. Grab the scar between your index and thumb and pull it away from your body. It will feel "stuck", which it is, stuck on the internal scar tissue. 3 minutes, twice a day. You should be able to roll the skin away from the scar, like the skin on the back of your hand. These scar tethers, when addressed early, release 90% of the time. Don't expect much change for the next 2-3 ...

What can I ask my surgeon about my nipples and one breast bigger than other?

what you can tell about your surgery after 20 days
Feb 24, 2019

Hi, I see a lot of questions on this site and I get a lot of questions personally about how things look at 20 days post-op, as it is natural to worry that they don't look perfect and that this is the final result. For new implants, the muscle swells, so they look very high for a few weeks. Then the pocket stays tight for about 6-8 weeks, and rarely does the implant drop into the right position until then. That is why your nipples look low, because the implant being high makes them point ...

I need a second opinion before my revision, what are your thoughts?

double bubble right and high implant left!
Feb 24, 2019

This is an interesting one... let's see what we have here. On both sides, the nipple is too lateral. On the right, the implant is low, which (I agree with you!!!) is giving you a double bubble on your right. On the left, the implant is not too bad, maybe a touch high and shows a bit much?They way I would handle this is to ask you which breast you like better. The right pocket is clearly lower than the left. If your PS wants to release the left, then you will have two breasts that look like...

fixing a bad lift
Sep 30, 2018

I always address the problem in "layers" so we can figure out what has gone wrong. Clearly there is a big, heavy, saggy look that you have now that was just small and a little sad before!Layer 1="implant and capsule"Your right implant is high, your left implant is low. The whole left side capsule seems looser as well (looking at your laying down photos). This implant will need better capsule support, whether it be a capsullorrhaphy (cheapest) or an internal bra with dermal matrix (most ...

What is the best way to fix over-dissection of pockets?

fixing pockets
Sep 30, 2018

A topic near and dear to my heart... fixing implant pockets! First, let's give also say that your right implant is riding a little high in your photos and causing asymmetry (the left breast in the photo for all you non-PSs). Your left shoulder is also lower in all the photos. You may want to take and check the photos again with your shoulder straight, or maybe you are permanently like this and therefore we should make the implants straight with your shoulders crooked! I don't see that in y...

Is it possible to chose your breast size after implant removal?

removing implants and downsizing
Sep 30, 2018

You can easily go down to a B, just have the breast reduced at the same time. Whether is cost more is up to the surgeon, as it does involve some extra work. Make sure the surgeon is confident about the nipple blood flow so you don't get nipple necrosis, I would NOT recommend a classic inferior pedicle reduction and a lift and an explant at the same time as that is high risk. Rather, leave the nipple blood flow intact medially and superiorly and reduce the hanging lateral and inferior part ...

Can I remove breast implants from breasts that were very different from each other with a good

removing implants from asymmetric brests
Sep 30, 2018

In your case, the implants are 70cc different which creates symmetry. So you should add 70cc of fat to your smaller breasts on removal of the implants. Usually I go over by 20% to account for any fat loss. Remember ot have the PS FIX THE PEC MUSCLE on explant. Why PS have to be told to do this is beyond me, but you don't want a pec flex deformity. And consider maybe grafting both sides so you don't look too deflated.

Diastasis repair through any incision
Jun 3, 2018

A diastasis rectus can be repaired through an umbilical incision, during a tummy tuck, or through an old csection, for me anyway. I know docs have a hard time with the smaller incision but totally do-able. For you, you need some skin removed where it’s hanging over, save the umbilicus, and just see your muscle back together in their anatomically correct location. You can placate external oblique if stretched on some people, usually not necessary. No fascia need be released, where did you ge...

Can I be a candidate for direct-to-implant reconstructive surgery if I have a mild case of tub

Direct to implant for tuberous breasts
Jun 3, 2018

The answer is, absolutely. Tuberous is not a “contraindication” as we say in the business, in fact the aesthetic outcome is quite good as the skin will redrape and the areola gets smaller, and you can reset the inframammary crease. Use inframmary crease incisions only and as I always say, ONLY go to mastectomy surgeons with a less than 1% nipple necrosis rate!

What options do I have for lifting my breasts?

saggy over muscle implants need support!
May 8, 2018

I see this a lot with over the muscle... the implant bottoms out in to the breast, weighing down the breast and aging it. These implants need support. I would definitely put in an internal bra (subpectoral implant with ADM holding it up) and you would get everything to come up higher from getting rid of the drag on the skin alone. If you want really perky, you still need skin resection too, but if you have little breast tissue, a palpable implant that is really right under your skin, you can...

My left breast is lower in the pocket and my nipple is pointing a different way, do I need rev

early bottoming out after augmentation
May 8, 2018

When the implant bottoms out this early, it is indeed hard to get it to stay up. I would do an underwire bra daily and see where you are after a month, but you certainly want to support it so it doesn't get any worse. Once everything settles and you are looking at your final result, you will likely need a capsullorrhaphy on the left. You don't want to touch anything until you have no changes for at three months, as you don't want anything surprising to happen when and if you have revisional ...

Does it look like I have capsular contracture? I had my breast done a year ago in May. (Photos

is it cap con - asymmetric breast implants
Apr 24, 2018

In your case, the bigger, looser, softer breast on the right got the smaller implant. The smaller, firmer, higher breast got the bigger implant. So the most likely scenario is that one breast (right) is just "more breast". The other breast (left) is just faker, firmer and "more implant". Leave it alone if it doesn't bother you too much, because you will always have an asymmetry after breast aug if you had an asymmetry before breast aug. The fix is to down size the 400cc implant to 375 and f...

Breast implants removed while breastfeeding?

can you remove implants under local and while breastfeeding... you can but not a great idea!
Apr 24, 2018

OK, so you can take out implants under local, especially with an incision in the breast crease. But there is no way, if you are submuscular, you can repair the muscle, which I think is incredibly important for best result; otherwise you can get a pec motion deformity, and repair of the pec brings the breast back together and makes it look neater and less flat and spread out after the implant is removed. As far as the breastfeeding goes, I would never cut through actively breastfeeding ...

Can one remove the capsule through the original nipple incision?

can a capsule be removed through a nipple/areolar incision
Apr 24, 2018

Hell yes it can. And will not need lengthening, in my opinion. However, especially with removal, these incisions will often tether slightly and must be massaged starting at three week to ensure that they heal smoothly.

Are over the muscle implants for reconstruction post mastectomy in the skin that was radiated

over or under the muscle after breast radiation
Apr 23, 2018

After radiation, the skin can be more fibrotic, and there are higher risks of mastectomy flap necrosis and healing complications when compared to a non-radiated breast. Even more importantly, the risk of capsular contracture goes up, especially if the reconstruction is over the muscle. The use of ADM and under the muscle is protective against capsular contracture, so I would still go under the muscle as the standard of care. Also, we have been using Provena Vacs for the dressing and doing...
