5 weeks post-op tumescent liposuction, no scale change. Is this right?
5 weeks after liposuction and no weight change
Jan 29, 2019
You are right in that liposuction is not technically a weight loss procedure, and at 5 weeks (although you may feel like it’s a long time), you are still in the early stages of your healing process and for liposuction you’ll have to be patient as it takes closer to 3 to 6 months for the majority of your swelling to resolve. Remember It’s always a good idea to consult your board certified plastic surgeon so you can discuss your concerns. &nbsp…

Irregular cheek and lump after voluma injection
Aug 23, 2017
Ms. Lee,
Injectables can have varying degrees of swelling especially early after injection, the irregularity/lump may also be a bruise that developed. These are issues that most likely will resolve in a couple of weeks. While ice, Arnica, etc. may help, if you are concerned it’s best to go see the Doctor that injected you so he/she can evaluate you and recommend a proper course of action.

How many treatments is needed for Cellfina?
Cellfina Treatment
Jul 7, 2017
Cellfina is done as a one time treatment to treat dimple cellulite and is FDA approved to reduce the appearance of cellulite for minimum 3 years (possibly longer). It can be combined with other treatments (Ultherapy, etc.) for skin tightening, or surgical procedures for body contouring. Please see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a formal evaluation to help determine if this treatment is best for you.
Best of Luck,

Are my BBL goals unrealistic?
Are my BBL goals unrealistic
Feb 8, 2017
Great question! It is good to have realistic expectations for any plastic surgery. Based on your photos you would be a great candidate for a BBL and the results you are looking for (noticeable, bubble butt, NOT dramatic) should be achievable. As you mentioned you may need a tummy tuck in the future. Also the “dents” on your buttocks should improve but may need further treatment with other modalities like Cellfina. Obviously the best way to know is to have…
Too much cellulite for Cellfina?
Cellfina for cellulite dimples
Jan 23, 2017
That is a great question, the short answer is that Cellfina is a great option no matter how much dimple cellulite you have. From your photos it looks like you would be a great candidate for the dimple cellulite on your buttocks and thighs. Cellfina is the longest lasting FDA cleared, clinically proven, true minimally invasive procedure which treats the skin tethering (which is the primary cause of the dimples in cellulite). The clinical studies…
Can I go braless in a backless dress for one night, 20 days after BA?
Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, recovery
Dec 13, 2016
While you may be feeling better a few weeks after your surgery, many changes are still occurring and your healing process is ongoing.

The best way to know if wearing a dress with minimal support is a reasonable option is to follow up with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to evaluate your progress since everyone has their own post-operative regimen. The decision can vary depending on the particular details of your procedure, as no patient is identical, and…

How long before I can do a push up? I have 375cc silicone gel under muscle.
Push-ups after breast augmentation
Jun 2, 2016
It is always a good idea to consult your board certified plastic surgeon regarding your Postop recovery and activities. As far as push-ups after breast augmentation I usually suggest re-starting at 6 weeks Postop. Since you have not been doing these exercises for a few weeks it is understandable that the muscles will be weaker and you will likely need to slowly build up to your pre-op exercise capacity. I wish you the best of luck! R. Emerick Salas M.D.

Please help me determine if I’m ready to remove my drains from my Tummy Tuck I would like a se
Timing of drain removal after tummy tuck
Apr 21, 2016
While every surgeon has their own protocol as to when they prefer to remove the drains after a particular surgical procedure, for an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) it tends to be in the range of each drain having less than 30cc over a 24 hour period. The best way to know if the drains are ready for removal is to schedule a follow up appointment with your surgeon, as he or she should have an opportunity to see you in the post operative period to evaluate your result, answer your questions, give…

Breast Lift size change
Jan 7, 2016
Congratulations on your upcoming procedure! In regards to your question, the size of your breasts does not usually change much with a lift alone. Your own volume is repositioned, and depending on your surgeons’ technique, perhaps only skin will be removed, but ocassionally a small amount of volume is resected to obtain a better breast contour. Sometimes a breast implant is used along with the lift to help restore volume loss on the superior aspect of the breast. In this situation the implant…
