Small, wide set breasts - can this be corrected?
Small, wide set breasts
Jul 2, 2023
It is certainly not common with widespread breasts to undergo breast augmentation, with one of the goals being to close the gap. Obviously other reasons would be better shape and volume a good discussion with your surgeon will help guide you through this process of choosing the appropriate implant. Larger implants have larger diameters which can be used to minimize the spacing between the breasts. For sure, it would be wise to look at a number of before and after photos by your surgeon. Some...
Interested in a MACS facelift and abdominal lipo with tummy tuck. According to PS facelift is a major
MACS facelift and abdominal lipo with tummy tuck
Jul 2, 2023
It is theoretically possible to perform a facelift and abdominoplasty with liposuction at the same time. The bigger question is whether this would be a wise thing to undergo. Most plastic surgeons will tell you two separate these two procedures. There are a number of reasons for this. Usually one would perform the abdominal surgery first, logistics the other way around make it more difficult especially with the monitoring needed by the anesthesiologist to perform your facelift first....
I want to have my cleft palate surgery. I'm 26yrs old. Is this possible at my age? What are the compli
cleft palate surgery. I'm 26yrs old
Jul 2, 2023
It is certainly possible to undergo cleft palate surgery when one is an adult. We have performed on even older patients. However, it is important to know that most likely perfect speech if that is an issue will not be achieved. It would be extraordinarily difficult with a completely repaired and functioning palate performed for a patient to rework all the neurologic input to the brain that is required for accentless speech. One would need to anticipate lots of speech therapy. Other issues...
Cleft lip injections. Will you recommend?
Cleft lip injections. Will you recommend?
Jul 2, 2023
Following cleft lip surgery, many times there can be small little issues that affect symmetry of the lip. There can be small depressions or mismatch of certain parts of the lip. It is not uncommon for patients who undergo cleft lips surgery to undergo revisional procedures in the future. In general, one should wait 9 to 12 months following cleft lip surgery before considering a touchup. Certainly, fillers including both synthetic fillers and also one's natural fat which can be obtained...
Would i be a good candidate for high profile implants?
good candidate for high profile implants
Jul 2, 2023
In my practice I view a high profile implant as a nice middle-of-the-road type of implant. Many times a moderate profile implant has a very wide diameter which can lead to side boob which is not always desired. There also tends to be less superior fullness with a moderate profile implant. To be honest, I rarely use them in my practice depending on a patient's objectives. It is true a high profile is especially valuable in someone with a thinner chest. However, there is no definition as to...
I had a Breast Reduction/Lift 4 years ago. Would getting small implants help to improve the shape and
Would getting small implants help to improve the shape and upper pole fullness?
Jul 2, 2023
It is not uncommon if one has undergone breast reduction to decide later to get implants to improve superior pole fullness. That is an inherent issue in breast reduction surgery, that is with time often a patient will lose superior fullness. For sure a small implant can help improve that. It is important to discuss sizing with your surgeon. A very small implant may not have the diameter given one's anatomy give the desired shape. On the other hand a larger implant with a more suitable...
If I had a breast reduction with 400g removed & want old breast size back, can I get 400cc implants?
can I get 400cc implants after a breast reduction with 400g removed
Jul 2, 2023
If 400 g were removed following a breast reduction and implants of about that size were placed, the volume would be in the general vicinity of breast volume previously. Do remember a few things. Inherent in a breast reduction is a breast lift. One would expect with implants for the breasts to be more elevated than they were preoperatively. In general, higher breasts look larger than breasts that are lower on the frame, especially in clothing. Also, you may wish to discuss this with your...
Why is it recommend to wait a year to get a tattoo after getting breast Implants?
Why is it recommend to wait a year to get a tattoo
Jul 2, 2023
There is no agreed-upon official recommendation as to when one could get a tattoo following breast implant surgery. One risk with tattoos is to develop a skin infection. A severe infection could theoretically affect your implants causing either capsular contracture or even an infection but this would be quite rare. This could happen at any time in your life although most likely it would occur early on, probably in the first three months or so. Obviously, many people get tattoos who have...
Breast Implants with Fibroadenomas
Breast Implants with Fibroadenomas
Jul 2, 2023
Usually fibroadenomas are small and do not interfere with breast augmentation surgery, especially if implants are placed submuscularly. The first thing to discuss with your PCP or gynecologist is whether a biopsy is needed. If so, this should be done first. The size of fibroadenomas can also play a role as a superficial one may be become more pronounced once there is an implant placed. Be sure to notify your plastic surgeon of your diagnosis with fibroadenomas. The more precise you can be as...
Is an implant enough or will I need a breast lift to bring my nipples up higher?
will I need a breast lift
Jul 2, 2023
It is not uncommon for it to be a tough decision between implants only or implants with breast lifting. Your surgeon will take into account the relationship of the nipple to the crease under your breast. Often, if the nipple is lower than the crease when you are standing, would be a candidate for lifting with or without an implant. The distance from the nipple to the crease may influence this also. If it is a short distance, augmentation may be suitable. It should be noted that implants...
Can I get an Earlobe Reduction even though they are not stretched from earrings or age?
Can I get an Earlobe Reduction
Jun 19, 2023
There are a number of simple techniques for reducing earlobes. These can often be performed under local anesthesia. The various techniques do yield small scars and the location of the scars vary with the techniques. When performing, we often recommend waiting at least a month and 1/2 before utilizing heavier earlobes to allow the suture repair area to strengthen. The most common techniques placed the scar either horizontally or along the junction of the ear lobe and the cheek. Most find this...
Am I a candidate for earlobe repair?
Am I a candidate for earlobe repair?
Jun 19, 2023
It appears that there is an elongated primary piercing hole in the ear lobe. This is a very common situation and sometimes the tear goes completely through the ear lobe. To repair this is a relatively simple procedure that most plastic surgeons perform commonly. It can be performed with a local anesthesia and consists mainly of sewing closed the hole.
