Question

Answer Snippet
Explant and wait or having fat transfer simultaneously?
Fat Transfer after Explant
Dec 4, 2023
When considering fat transfer to the breasts, especially after explantation (removal of breast implants), the timing of the fat transfer is crucial. Some surgeons prefer to perform fat transfer simultaneously with the explant procedure, as it allows for immediate reshaping and volume addition. However, others recommend waiting after the explant to allow the breast tissues to heal and settle, which can provide a clearer understanding of the final shape and size needed for the fat transfer….
Could fat be transferred from my stomach to my breasts to make them fuller?
Breast Fat Transfer
Dec 4, 2023
Yes, fat can be transferred from your stomach to your breasts to make them fuller. This procedure, known as fat transfer or fat grafting, involves liposuction to remove fat from your stomach and then injecting it into your breasts. It offers a more natural alternative to implants for breast augmentation but typically provides a more modest increase in breast size.
Skin type 2, sensitive skin, what’s your recommended scar creams/tape/ointment post-op?
Scar Care for Sensitive Skin
Dec 4, 2023
For sensitive skin, the best post-surgical scar treatment involves using hypoallergenic silicone gel sheets or gels, which are gentle yet effective. They hydrate the scar, aid in healing, and minimize scar appearance. Additionally, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the scar from UV rays is crucial, along with avoiding harsh skincare products.
Breast lift with fat transfer – Can these be done at the same time?
Breast Lift and Boost
Dec 4, 2023
A breast lift with fat transfer can absolutely be done at the same time. A breast lift with fat transfer is a procedure that lifts and reshapes the breasts, adding natural fullness by injecting purified fat from the patient’s own body. Excess skin is removed to uplift the breasts, while fat, harvested through liposuction from areas like the abdomen or thighs, enhances volume and contour. This technique offers a more natural augmentation and subtle size increase, providing a dual benefit of…
Post-op breast lift scar treatment options & stitching techniques?
Best Post-Op Scar Regiment
Dec 4, 2023
The best post-surgical scar treatment combines silicone gel sheets or ointments, sun protection, and gentle massage. Silicone products hydrate the scar and reduce its appearance, while sunblock prevents darkening and further damage. Massaging the area improves flexibility and blood flow, aiding in a softer, less noticeable scar.
What are common signs of fat necrosis and how common is this after a breast reduction or br
Fat Necrosis after Breast Reduction
Dec 4, 2023
Fat necrosis is a condition that can occur after breast reduction or breast lift surgeries, although it is not extremely common. It happens when fatty tissue in the breast gets damaged and forms firm, round lumps. The common signs of fat necrosis include painless, round, firm lumps in the breast, skin that appears red or bruised, and sometimes, an oily or milky discharge if the lump is close to the skin surface. In some cases, the affected area might feel tender or painful. Fat necrosis can…
Numbness 7 months post-op. Is this normal?
Numbness after Breast Reduction Surgery
Dec 4, 2023
After breast reduction surgery experiencing numbness in the scar area is quite common. This numbness occurs because the surgical process involves cutting through skin and tissues, which inevitably affects the nerves in the breast area. In some cases, the numbness may be temporary as nerves can slowly regenerate over time. However, for some individuals, this numbness can be permanent due to the extent of nerve disruption during surgery. The sensation in the breast and nipple area can vary…
