375cc or 400cc Implants for Breast Augmentation?
375cc or 400cc Implants for Breast Augmentation?
Feb 6, 2021
Hello p2a.
Let’s take a step back for a moment and focus on your goal which is how you want to look. Keep in mind that the same size implant can have a very different visual effect from patient to patient depending on where the patient starts--height, weight, amount of breast tissue, skin elasticity. Take a 400 cc implant in a thin woman with a narrow torso with little native breast tissue vs. a woman who is 5’ 10” and weighs 170 lbs. Next, what is the difference for example between a 375cc...
Tummy Tuck Vs Laser Skin Tightening for Minimal Loose Skin After Pregnancy
Tummy Tuck Vs Laser Skin Tightening for Minimal Loose Skin After Pregnancy
Feb 6, 2021
Hello Kygurl-
Understandable dilemma! The answer depends on the degree of loss of elasticity, how much excess skin you have, your underlying muscle tone and whether is there some degree of diastasis (separation of the rectus muscle) that you subconsciously camouflage when standing through good posture and contracting your abdominal muscles. First, let’s talk about laser lipo. You didn’t mention excess fat, so if that’s the case, there is no need for liposuction. Whether skin tight...
How Much Weight Can I Lose from Tummy Tuck Surgery?
How Much Weight Can I Lose from Tummy Tuck Surgery?
Feb 6, 2021
Debating,
Tummy tuck surgery is not weight loss surgery, it is body contouring surgery. What you can expect from a tummy tuck is a flatter abdomen, reduced fat deposits, a smaller waist, removal of excess skin and overall improvement in body shape and contour. The weight of the excess tissue removed will not “move the needle” especially in the immediate postoperative period when you are swollen. However if you are a patient who has lost a large or massive amount of weight and you have a lar...
Can you have a baby after a tummy tuck?
Can I have a baby after a tummy tuck?
Feb 6, 2021
Hello Jess in need of--
Assuming you are healthy in all ways necessary to become pregnant, having had a tummy tuck and body sculpting will not affect your ability to get pregnant and have another baby.
A practical piece of advice: If you are planning on having another child in the near future (a year or two) you might want to hold off on the tummy tuck. First, I think that most plastic surgeons who do “a lot of any procedure” would agree that there will be some patients who will need tou...
How Long Should I Leave my Dissolvable Stitch Alone?
How Long Should I Leave my Dissolvable Stitch Alone?
Feb 6, 2021
Thank you for the question Gail1962---We often refer to these as a “spitting” stitch. A suture(s) that is meant to remain under the skin and dissolve will poke through the skin and becomes something you can feel, which is usually how it’s first noticed, and observed. As you assumed, there is usually a knot below, unless it’s the end of a long suture that travels in the skin beneath the surface. Depending on the type of “dissolving” suture, it may take anywhere from about 10 days to eight we...
How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
Feb 1, 2021
Hi Paula. Most of the swelling resolves over the first three months. There may be continued resolution of swelling up to six months after a tummy tuck. Lymphatic drainage beginning at about one week after a tummy tuck can speed up the process. This should be performed by a licensed massage therapist trained in the technique of lymphatic drainage. Thank you for the question.
Signs of Capsular Contracture After Breast Augmentation?
Signs of Capsular Contracture after Breast Augmentation
Feb 1, 2021
Great question Real Self! Signs of capsular contracture can occur early after breast augmentation or not until many years after surgery. Forming a capsule, an envelope of scar tissue, around a breast implant is a normal process. However, when the capsule contracts, the implant is now in a space that has become smaller and depending on the degree of shrinkage or contracture, a patient’s breast may feel more firm, the shape may change as well, as the implant has often been displaced upwards t...
How Soon After Surgery Can I Start Scar Treatment?
How Soon After Surgery Can I Start Using Silicone Scar Sheets?
Jan 22, 2021
The entire length of the scar does not always heal at the same rate. Once it appears that the scar is uniformly healing, no scabs, crusting or “open spots”, you can begin applying silicone scar sheets. Make sure to remove them before showering and ensure that the skin is dry before reapplying them after showering. If water accumulates under the silicone sheets it can cause maceration of the skin making it appear wrinkly, wet and soggy, similar to the appearance of your skin when you’ve been ...
How Long is the Recovery Period for Full Tummy Tuck?
How Long is the Recovery Period for Full Tummy Tuck?
Jan 21, 2021
Let me answer the question with a question, recovery to do what? For many patients their main concern is return to work and usual activates of daily living (driving, household responsibilities, kids, etc.), for others its when can I go back to the gym, when will I see my final result and start building a new wardrobe. Recovery from a tummy tuck is a gradual process and everyone recovers at a different rate.
Let’s talk about the first one to two weeks. When you leave the facility where you h...
How Long Should You Wear Your Binder/Garment for After a Tummy Tuck?
How Long Should You Wear Your Binder/Garment for After a Tummy Tuck?
Jan 21, 2021
Let’s start with the binder. A binder can cause more harm than good. More often than not patients think that making the binder tight will speed things along; NOT SO. On the contrary, binders can put unnecessary pressure on the tissues and diminish blood supply and actually lead to tissue necrosis (tissue death) especially in the area above the mons pubis where blood supply is already diminished by the procedure. Binders can also interfere with patients taking deep breaths which can lead to b...
Can I wear a bikini 1 year after tummy tuck?
Can I Wear a Bikini After a Tummy Tuck?
Jan 21, 2021
It depends! On the placement and design of the incision by your plastic surgeon. It’s important to discuss your goals with your plastic surgeon well before the day of surgery, which, among other things, includes bathing suit styles (bikinis) and underwear. While there are no guarantees, a properly planned incision should allow you to wear a bikini. Depending on the width of the bikini strap/band and how you heal, you may be able to wear a bikini well before a year. Just remember to protect y...
What happens if you get sick with a cough or cold before surgery?
What Happens if I Get Sick Before Surgery?
Dec 31, 2020
This is an important question NewYearsNewBoobs. Patient safety and welfare are the first priority. It is always best for symptoms to completely resolve before proceeding with surgery. Recovery from anesthesia, and recovery in general, may be more difficult if you are ill. Coughing can increase blood pressure and cause bleeding. Please see your primary care physician for a full evaluation before proceeding with surgery. Remember--Safety First!
Does Sucking and Pressing the Breast Increase the Size?
Does Sucking and Pressing the Breast Increase the Size?
Dec 31, 2020
Hi shilpafck. Definitely not. While there have been devices designed for that purpose, they have not been shown to increase breast size. There are two ways to increase breast size, breast augmentation and fat transfer to the breast. Fat transfer to the breast involves performing liposuction from one area of your body, processing the fat and then transferring it to your breast. However, this sounds easier that it is. For one, not all of the transferred fat survives and there is a limitation...
When Does Swelling After Breast Augmentation Begin to Subside?
Swelling and Breast Augmentation
Dec 31, 2020
Hello kcali. It is premature to assess breast size within the first few weeks after surgery, let alone after the first 5 days. Swelling dissipates slowly over time. Not only will breast size change as swelling resolves but so will breast shape and implant position; patience is a must. Generally by two months most of the swelling will have dissipated but depending on the size of implants, it may take somewhat longer until you can appreciate the appearance of your breasts. It’s also i...
How to Make Your Boobs Bigger - Pills or Creams?
Can Pills or Creams Make My Breasts Bigger?
Dec 31, 2020
Yikes!! It’s always disheartening to see that there’s someone selling hope in a bottle. Pills and creams will not make your boobs bigger. While there are instances that one of the side effects of birth control pills may be increase breast fullness, that is not an indication for birth control pills. There are two ways to increase breast size, breast augmentation and fat transfer to the breast. Fat transfer to the breast involves performing liposuction from one area of your body, pro...
