Question

Answer Header & Date

Answer Snippet

Will the bottom of my breast round out without revision?

breast revision
Dec 30, 2019

Doing a combination of breast augmentation with lift is very challenging and overall it looks like your procedures were done well. However there is some flattening at the bottom of the left breast and this may be due to scar tissue contraction in that area and I don’t think this will improve with time, given that it’s been 5 months since your surgery. Revision surgery may or may not fix the problem as this is difficult to correct. Sometimes fat grafting can help, but this is unpredictable.

How far apart can I have a breast augmentation with a lift then a tummy tuck with contouring?

two surgeries
Dec 30, 2019

In this case it may be possible to safely do both procedures at the same time, but you can also space them out. I think two weeks apart is reasonable. You always have to weigh risks vs. benefits. The risk of a longer surgery to complete 2 procedures may outweigh the risks of doing 2 separate procedures involving 2 anesthesia inductions. Ultimately it’s a personal decision also taking into account the added expense of a second procedure.

Can I have fat transfer after having implants removed and being completely flat with adhesions after

breast revision
May 8, 2019

From the photo it looks like you have normal amount of loose skin without adhesions and this is what can happen after implant removal. This can be corrected either with fat grafting, or placement of another implant, or a skin tightening procedure depending on your preference. I wish you the best.

Itchy burning skin 5 weeks post breast implants. What could this be?

burning skin after augmentation
Apr 9, 2019

It’s unusual to have this type of sensation, but not unheard of. Generally if you’ve had these symptoms since your surgery then most likely it’s due to irritation of nerves due to the trauma of surgery. If this is new, then your doctor needs to be aware of possible infection. If it’s nerve pain, then it will go away with time. Sometimes your doctor can prescribe Gabapentin which may ease the discomfort of nerve pain. Please check with your surgeon.

3 consultations & 3 opinions: is a lift necessary in my case?

need a lift?
Mar 4, 2019

It seems that based on your question and photo that you don’t absolutely need a breast lift along with your augmentation. Of course to get a lift would give the best aesthetic result, but if this is something you don’t want to do, then you will look just fine in a bra or bikini. Without a bra there will be noticeable drooping. The good news is that a lift can be done down the road if you are unhappy with the appearance. You may even be a candidate for a minimally invasive…

Is a surgical bra recommended with breast augmentation in some patients and not others?

bra
Feb 25, 2019

The choice of bra or no bra after surgery is a controversial one and is really at the discretion of the surgeon. I prefer not to have my patients use any type of bra for the first 3 weeks after surgery because bras tend to push implants upward and at the immediate post operative period the implants are usually high-riding and they take a few months to settle downward. Therefore, why keep them from settling down (to look normal and natural)? Also a bra can sometimes cause scar tissue to form…

If you have a tattoo on your lower stomach and then you get a tummy tuck, will the tattoo end up bein

tummy tuck tattoo
Feb 25, 2019

In general a tummy tuck will get rid of excess skin below the belly button and above the pubic hairline from hip to hip. Therefore any tattoo in that area will be removed. If a portion the tattoo lies outside that boundary, then it will stay and could possibly be distorted by skin stretching.

Would a tummy tuck and bra line back lift give me a tight tummy and smooth back?

tummy tuck
Feb 20, 2019

First of all congratulations on your massive weight loss! As long as about a year has gone by since your bariatric surgery and your weight is stable, and since your BMI is about 26.6, then you are a good candidate for tummy tuck and liposuction of the bra line back fat. This can be done in one setting. I’m not sure if you need a back lift or if liposuction alone will take care of the problem. My guess is that liposuction alone may do the trick. Best of luck to you.

It is safe to have Botox in face 1 week before total knee replacement?

Botox after knee surgery
Jan 28, 2019

As long as you are back at home, are fairly stable in your balance and not under the influence of narcotics, you should be a good candidate for Botox placement to the face. In general your surgeon will tell you not to rub the injected area or do any vigorous exercising for a few hours after the procedure. Hopefully it will work well for you.

Would a tummy tuck work for me?

tummy tuck?
Dec 3, 2018

From your photos it appears that you have a slight amount of loose skin, although in general the abdomen shape is very good. Therefore you can opt to have a mini abdominoplasty in order to get rid of some of the extra skin at the bottom of the abdomen. The alternative is liposution, but this may not cause skin tightening.

Is my right breast too low? I am 4 months post op.

Right breast too low?
Nov 14, 2018

It appears that overall your augmentation was done very well. There is a very slight amount of lowering of the right inframammary fold, and this is not uncommon, especially if the original IMF was lower to start. Perhaps the more important question is: are the breast heights (as seen from above) symmetrical, or does the top of the left side appear higher in a bra? If so, then it may be possible to try to raise the right side fold, but this is very difficult since pressure from the implant…

From your photos it appears that this issue can be fixed. It seems like the left side cleavage can be made more narrow by dissection closer to the midline and perhaps closing down the lateral side of the pocket with some sutures. The problem is that the implants can put pressure on the sutures and make them tear out and then the implant will go back laterally.
