Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I’m pretty sure I have Poland syndrome (one breast) and I would like to get diagnosed , how do I do
Poland’s syndrome
Jul 12, 2023
From your description, you likely have Poland’s syndrome. Poland’s can present with only breast development discrepancy or may involve underlying muscle and bone. The best way to get an opinion is to call and make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon. Look for one who does a lot of breast surgery.
It is not likely that you will have insurance coverage for breast size discrepancy but it depends on your company. Check with your insurance company and ask them for a written…
I have a keloid scar on my areola from a nipple piercing becoming infected. Is there any way to fix
Several options
Jun 22, 2022
There are several treatments available for keloids. Without an in-person exam, it is difficult to give advice for your exact problem but it is possible that an injection of a steroid into the scar may soften and flatten the keloid. Sometimes it takes multiple infections over a few months time.
The steroid does not work for all people and then surgery could be considered.
Think hard before getting another piercing. You may have the same problem even if you don’t get another infection.
Good…
Neck and back pain – how can I prove it is from my 38GG breasts?
Pick up your breasts
May 18, 2022
While there is no real way to PROVE that your pain is from the weight of your breasts, I have two tests. Does your neck and back pain feel better if you lift your breasts with your arms? Or, do you feel relief by resting the GG’s on a table or desk. If your answer to these questions is “yes” then your pain is at least aggravated by the weight or your breasts. If you have underlying arthritis, breast reduction will not fix the arthritis but it may alleviate the pain by reducing the stress on…
Why are infections so common amongst breast procedures?
Maybe not infection
Mar 23, 2022
Very often when there is any difficulty healing an incision, the patient automatically calls it an infection. It is often more related to the blood flow to the area that results in an open wound. Often the surgeon will recommend some type of antibiotic cream or ointment to help this area heal. That does not necessarily indicate an infection. These creams and ointments are more to decrease the risk of infection rather than treat an infection. As others have stated, infection in breast lifts…
Breast Reduction 1 year postop – were my nipples placed too high?
More photos please
Feb 8, 2022
It is difficult to answer your question from just one photo. I would like to see a side view and have some measurements.
With that said, it is likely that your nipple is in the correct location but that you have some “bottoming out” with the distance beneath the nipple to the chest wall being stretched out a bit. It may be possible to improve that appearance by removing some more skin at the bottom.
Discuss your concerns with your surgeon. He/she can take some measurements and advise what…
Is 400 BA surgeries enough to be trustworthy?
That is plenty
Feb 8, 2022
The number of surgeries alone does not speak to competence or “trustworthiness” but 400 breast augmentations is certainly enough to give lots of experience.
Left breast has squishy water feeling – should I get an x-ray for my breast?
Ask your surgeon
Feb 8, 2022
What you describe is probably nothing to be concerned about. The best way to have it evaluated is to see your surgeon or another board certified plastic surgeon. I would not recommend an emergency room visit. The emergency room physician is not likely to be an expert in breast implants. Emergency rooms are expensive and best saved for emergencies.
Do you think I have a reasonable chance of getting my surgery covered by insurance?
Should be simple
Mar 10, 2020
What you describe is just right for a breast reduction.
Every insurance plan in every state has different requirements. Even plans from the same company have different plans with different requirements. Start by reading your insurance booklet or search their website for their requirements. If you can’t find them, call the insurance company. If that still does not work, make an appointment for a plastic surgeon who does breast reductions. They…
Do I qualify for a breast reduction? Would it include a lift, or is that extra?
Call for an appointement
Feb 21, 2020
It is not possible to answer the question of whether your insurance would pay for a reduction for you over the internet. You need to be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation. Each insurance company has different criteria for coverage – I know, not really fair.
Breast reduction always include the lift. It is not “extra”.
Make the appointment and get some personalized answers to your questions. Good luck.
Can liposuction be done on the buttocks?
Liposuction of buttocks
Feb 21, 2020
The current trend it to add fat to the buttocks but you can certainly do liposuction on the buttocks. See a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your desires.
I have had breast implants for 28 years. Now, I am having pain under both breast (in breast). Is thi
Make the appointment
Feb 21, 2020
Stop considering making an appointment. Pick up the phone and make an appointment now with a board certified plastic surgeon. The pain you are experiencing may not have any relationship with the implants but if they are 28 years old, it is time for an evaluation. Wish you the best.
I have been to a couple of family doctors and they have no idea what is wrong with my nipple, any su
Nothing “wrong”
Feb 21, 2020
I would not say there is something “wrong” with your nipple. It just doesn’t have a perfect shape. If the appearance bothers you, see a plastic surgeon. It may be a pretty easy fix. It is not likely that your insurance would cover the cost. Nevertheless, it may be worth the cost to you if it would make you feel better.
Will exchanging implant sites be more painful?
Pain usually minimal
Aug 14, 2019
In my experience, women who have revision of breast augmentation tend to have less pain than the initial procedures. I hope you are in that group. Your surgeon should be able to help you with pain medication if needed. Good luck with your upcoming procedure.
My right breast is sitting higher and feels softer than my left after my breast augmentation, how ca
Contracture
Jun 4, 2019
It is interesting that you note your right side is higher and softer than the left. Your photos suggest that you have a capsular contracture on the right making the implant appear higher, or fuller, at the top.
There is nothing that you can do to change this. I recommend you discuss with your surgeon for an in person evaluation to determine if contracture is the actual cause.
Despite the slight asymmetry, you still look great.
Will a heating pad help with pain and swelling to the inner thigh post op 2 weeks from J Plasma and
No heating pads
May 20, 2019
I agree with all who have said “No” to a heating pad. Most surgery will lead to a change in sensation of the surrounding skin. This is especially true of liposuction. You can’t feel normally so you can’t tell that the heating pad is too hot. This can result in burns. I have also seen a full thickness burn of the skin when a patient used a heating pad after liposuction. Put your heating pad away please and speak to your surgeon about other methods to…
