Answer Snippet

Is it ok to do light facial massage 15 hours post-Botox?

Botox and facial massage
Oct 14, 2015

There will not affect your Botox. All of the Botox will be bound to muscle cells at that point, so there will be no unwanted diffusion or spread of the Botox.

Is it possible to make eyebrows an even height with Botox?

Botox and eyebrow position
Oct 13, 2015

Botox can be used to alter the position of the eyebrows. If the Botox is placed above the tail of the eyebrow that is too high, it will cause that eyebrow to drop down. If Botox is placed below the tail of the lower eyebrow, it can help with lifting the lower eyebrow. This is where the experience of injector can play a large role to determine which option is best for you.

Excess skin after 170 pound weight loss
Oct 13, 2015

Congratulations on the weight loss. Many patients find it frustrating that they go through all of the effort to lose the excess weight and then are left with excess skin that covers up all of their hard work. From the photos, you appear to have a significant amount of skin excess of the arms, lateral chest wall, and entire torso. To a lesser degree, you have some drooping of the breasts and skin/fat excess on the thighs. I would probably recommend starting with a…

Body lift with Labiaplasty
Oct 13, 2015

Congratulations on your weight loss. It looks like you would benefit from a circumferential body lift as your have loose skin that extends all the way around your trunk. Typically, a labiaplasty could be performed at the same time. In St. Louis, a body lift costs $13,000 to $15,000 and a labiaplasty is $3,000 to $4,000. I would recommend scheduling a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in post bariatric body contouring. Good luck on…

4 weeks 4 days post op, Do I have dogs ears or am I just swollen?

Tummy tuck and dog ears
Oct 1, 2015

At 1 month following your surgery, you will still have a significant amount of swelling and this will continue to improve. Based on your photos, you do not have dog ears. Good luck on your healing process.

Will a 10 pound weight gain after full tummy tuck stretch my muscle repair?

Tummy tuck and weight gain
Oct 1, 2015

A ten pound weight gain will not add a significant amount visceral fat (fat around the organs and inside the rectus muscles) which is the fat that can cause separation of the rectus muscles. The fat will be distributed across the entire body. It usually requires a pregnancy or large weight gain (greater than 50 pounds) to significantly affect the rectus muscles.

6 weeks post tummy tuck and so unhappy

6 weeks post tummy tuck
Sep 30, 2015

I am sorry that you are unhappy with the results of your tummy tuck. The good thing is that you are still in the healing phase and that you have not seen your final result. Even though there are no pictures to evaluate, I can tell you that you still have some swelling of the abdomen. This will take at least six months (and sometimes longer) to see all of the swelling resolve. As the swelling improves, you will see some additional flattening of your abdomen. It…

Why is the right side of my Mon Pubis getting inflated with what feels like air bubbles?

Mons swelling
Sep 29, 2015

It sounds like you are describing an inguinal hernia. I would recommend scheduling a consult with a general surgeon to evaluate you for a hernia.

Are cheek fillers injections bad every year? Does it have any consequence?

Annual fillers
Sep 29, 2015

There is not a medical contra-indication to getting fillers every year. Since Restylane lasts about 6 months, Juvederm 9-12 months, and Voluma 18-24 months you would expect patients to need fillers on an annual (or least biannual) basis. The biggest concern would be overfilling an area and with the hyaluronic acids that could be addressed with hyaluronidase. There are some studies that suggest hyaluronic acid products may cause some collagen production, so that you need…

Are my stitches coming apart?

Tummy tuck and sutures
Sep 29, 2015

It doesn’t appear that you have a dehiscence of the wound (which is a significant separation of the skin flaps. You have a very small separation of the skin edges that will heal on its own. I would recommend following up with your plastic surgeon as you may have a suture that is “spitting” and that can easily be removed in the office. It is not unusual to have one or two sutures “spit” out after an abdominoplasty and it doesn’t affect your end result. Congrats on your…

I still have discharge from my navel. Should I be worried?

Navel discharge after tummy tuck
Sep 29, 2015

You should not still have discharge from your navel 5 years after your surgery. You should follow up with your plastic surgeon and you may have an inclusion cyst or permanent suture that need to be removed. These types of issues are fairly easy to take care of in the office by your plastic surgeon.

What would you suggest other than a second opinion?

Tummy Tuck and swelling
Sep 29, 2015

Since you are only 10 weeks out from surgery, you do still have some swelling in the subcutaneous fat and this will continue to improve over the next couple of months. I have also seen cases where patients have a small seroma in the upper abdomen that takes 4-6 months to completely resolve. I would recommend giving it at least 6 months from surgery before considering a revision, because you may well find that you don’t need a revision.If at 6 months, you still have the protrusion…

Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck?

Weight loss and trunk surgery
Sep 29, 2015

Congratulations on your weight loss. It appears that you have excess skin in the anterior abdomen, flanks and probably of the back based on your photos. Since you have had an 80 pound weight loss (which is a significant amount), a better option may be a circumferential body lift since that addresses the loose skin of the abodmen, flanks, and back. If the loose skin just involves the abdomen and flanks, then an extended body lift with possible liposuction to the lower back…

I had Voluima injected on both sides of my chin 5 days ago. My face is still swollen, lumpy and br

Voluma and bruising
Sep 28, 2015

It is not unusual to have some bruising with injections (Botox or fillers) because you are placing a needle into an area that has a lot blood vessels. Bruising will cause some swelling and there can be small collections of blood that you can feel underneath the skin. As the bruising resolves, then the swelling and lumps will improve. This will get better and give it at least 2 weeks (preferably 4 weeks) before considering the use of hyaluronidase to “melt away” the Voluma,…

Would Botox lift my eyelids so I don’t have that epicanthal fold?

Botox and epicanthal folds
Sep 28, 2015

Botox can help with altering the position of the eyebrows depending on how it is injected, but it will not significantly alter the appearance of epicanthal folds. Surgery is required to alter the folds. You should schedule a consult with a board certified surgeon that has significant experience in treating Asian eyelids–this is not something that all surgeons commonly treat.
