Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I need your honest review do you think that I need a breast lift along with my breast augmen
Breast Augmentation with Lift
Jun 2, 2019
Thank you for your question! Reviewing your photos it appears the best course of action is a breast lift in addition to implants. Due to the degree of that your breasts sag the best cosmetic result would be a vertical (lollipop incision) breast lift. This will bring your nipples back up to their optimal position and will enhance the fullness you will achieve in addition to the implants.
Is breast reduction by liposuction getting popular? What are the pro’s and con’s?
Breast Reduction by Liposuction
Mar 24, 2019
In my experience very few patients are good candidates for liposuction alone as a means of breast reduction. Although younger patients may not have a great deal of ptosis (sagging), they may have very dense breasts that are not amenable to liposuction. Older patients may have a great deal of ptosis; therefore, liposuctioning the breasts will only make this worse. Most times you have to remove the excess skin with the breast tissue giving the patient a lift with the reduction.
I am losing a great deal of weight. Likely 150 -200 lbs. I will need everything lifted. What
Massive weight loss surgery staging
Mar 23, 2019
Congratulations on your weight loss! There are many different options which may be based on patient preference &medical condition as well as the location where the surgery will be performed. The longer the surgeries, the higher the risk of complications such as blood clots. It’s prudent to not attempt to do too much at one setting. In my experience most patients want their abdomen addressed first. You most likely would be a candidate for a circumferential body lift as…
What do you recommend a mini arm lift axillary cut or a full arm lift with the large cut and
Mini arm lift versus traditional
Mar 23, 2019
Evaluating your photos you appear to be a more appropriate candidate for a full brachioplasty (arm lift). If you also have excess axillary skin, I would perform and extended brachioplasty whereby the incision is extended to remove that excess skin for better contour. I prefer to perform the posterior extended brachioplasty using the liposuction avulsion technique. During this technique the arms are liposuction to completely deflate them. Your nerves and vessels are…
If I’m getting a breast reduction and lift with no implant is it best to use regular stitche
Absorbable versus permanent sutures for breast reduction surgery
Mar 23, 2019
You appear to be an excellent candidate for a breast reduction. Suture selection is a matter of surgeon preference. I prefer to use absorbable monofilament (single stranded) sutures as opposed to braided sutures. Monofilament sutures are less prone to elicit inflammatory reactions and harbor bacteria.
Can you get a breast reduction and a breast lift without implants? I am a G/H cup.
Breast Reduction
Nov 16, 2014
A breast reduction would be an excellent option for you. More would have to be removed from your right breast to achieve symmetry. It appears that you have dense breasts which is an advantage in attaining a more full appearance (implant-like) after a reduction.Quintessa Miller MD FACS
Is it common to do a Breast Lift first then wait 3 months to do Breast Augmentation?
Staged mastopexy augmentation
May 17, 2014
That’s an excellent question. It is actually my preference to do the breast lift first for someone with a great degree of ptosis. This sets things up very nicely for a more aesthetically pleasing augmentation. If you do the augmentation first in someone with a great deal of sagging, this may give the appearance of a “rock in a sock.” After the skin envelop is tightened then in about 3 months an augmentation can be done. Some patients have had the unfortunate…
Is a lift required with a breast reduction? What kind of scar results from breast reduction?
Downsizing breast implants
May 4, 2014
It is fortunate that you had saline implants originally placed. This enables your Plastic Surgeon to puncture your implants in clinic and give your skin time to shrink (at least 2-3 weeks). This will help the surgeon determine how much breast tissue you actually have and how much your skin envelop has tightened. At that time a plan can be made to either do an implant exchange for smaller implants or to do a mastopexy-augmentation. Depending on the degree of skin…
One month post-op 465cc silicone implants with rippling: Is it gonna get worse?
Rippling after breast implants
May 4, 2014
Like was was mentioned it does appear that your implants have been placed above your muscle (subglandular). If your skin envelop is thin, this is not uncommon. If at 6 months the rippling has worsened and you desire a revision there are several options. 1. Fat grafting over your implants. This may be the less expensive option but fat grafting is unpredictable and may require more than one session to correct your problem.2. Alloderm which is a dermal replacement to…
How Can I Get Rid of Loose Sagging Skin After Pregnancy?
Mommy Makeover
Apr 24, 2014
A Mommy Makeover can remove a significant amount of excess abdominal skin particularly if there is not a great deal of adipose (fatty) tissue present (both under the skin and around the stomach). Many women who have stretch marks present beneath their umbilicus are able to have them removed in the process. Depending on the degree of ptosis (sagging), a mastopexy (breast lift) or augmentation is done concurrently to address the breast loose skin.Quintessa Miller MD…
Am I eligible for a breast reduction? I’m 4″11, 118 pounds, and I’m a 30F with fibrocystic b
Eligibility for breast reduction
Apr 20, 2014
Insurance companies vary in terms of their requirements for coverage. For example, some companies require that patients have been seen by a chiropractor, have attempted physical therapy, have lost weight prior to consideration of paying for a breast reduction. Furthermore some mandate a miminal amount of tissue to be removed which in some instances will result in a substantial removal of tissue (more than the patient may actually want). From reviewing your photos and…
Should I have breast reconstruction at my age, after mastectomy? I’m 65 years old
Breast Reconstruction after 60
Apr 19, 2014
You are absolutely NOT ridiculous. As long as you have no medical conditions that would disqualify you from a reconstruction, your age is not an issue. The oldest patient I reconstructed was 74 years old at the time of surgery and she recovered well. This patient walked 4 miles a day and was in impeccable shape. It’s a matter of what condition you are in, not simply your age. Most of the women I reconstruct are in their 60s.Quintessa Miller MD FACSSan Antonio…
Will I Need a Small Vertical Incision for my Tummy Tuck?
Vertical scar needed for abdominoplasty?
Apr 18, 2014
It’s very possible that you may require a vertical incision but usually the scar heals well and is lower on your abdomen. In women without a prior scar, the alternative would be to make the scar higher. A higher horizontal scar is more difficult to camouflage than a small vertical one.Quintessa Miller MD FACSSan Antonio Plastic Surgeon
Do you recommend breast implants for a 50 yr old?
Breast implants at 50 years old
Apr 18, 2014
Age is not as much of a factor as your health status and skin characteristics. As we age the skin becomes more lax and some women may require a lift in addition to implants. A board certified Plastic Surgeon can evaluate you and make that determination.Quintessa Miller MD FACSSan Antonio Plastic Surgeon
Breast Reduction Recovery
Breast Reduction Recovery
Apr 15, 2014
Breast reduction surgery tends to have a high patient satisfaction rate. Not only are you able to eliminate symptoms such as neck and back pain in many cases, but also benefit from the aesthetic outcome. I use the vertical breast reduction technique that avoids the bottom horizontal scar. Since switching to this technique I have found that my patients have less pain postoperatively and are able to return to work within a couple of days with just over the counter pain…
