Mommy Makeover
Feb 8, 2018
Thank you for your posting and submitted photos! A Mommy Makeover can include a variety of different procedures, and what is included in your surgical plan would be based on your individual goals. Patients who are wanting to remove fat as well as loose skin, and tighten their abdomen area, are typically great candidates for a tummy tuck procedure as it addresses all of those concerns. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon near you for an examination. Cost differs by the region...

Breast Augmentation
Feb 1, 2018
Thank you for your question and submitted photos! Patients interested in breast augmentation surgery have a variety of implants to choose from, which differ not only in size, but also projection, shape, and even feel! I can be a little overwhelming, but your board-certified plastic surgeon can lead you in the right direction depending on your individual goals are in having this procedure. Together, you can choose the best implant for you! In regards to correcting nipple inversion, your...
Round or teardrop implant for a smaller build?
Breast Augmentation & Lift
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your question! In order to help with your decision on which implant is right for you, it can be helpful to review before and after photos of patients who are very similar to you to get a better idea of what your final result will be with either implant choice. It is definitely possible to have a natural aesthetic with silicone round implants as well as anatomic implants. An examination with a board-certified plastic surgeon would be necessary to get the best...
Breast implants 325 or 350??? I am 5"3 and wiegh 117.
Breast Implants
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your question! When selecting an implant that is best for you, it is important to consider your overall aesthetic goal. Because there are so many types of implants available today, it can be a little overwhelming for patients, but the wide range of availability does allow you to have a truly customized augmentation procedure. The first and most important thing to consider when making your choice of implant is your anatomy. At your consultation appointment, your surgeon...
Good compression garment after liposuction to back area?
Compression Garments
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your posting! The purpose of post-surgical compression garments is to help contour the body and minimize swelling. Unfortunately, many of these garments do lack the necessary compression for the lower back area. To help with this, a wedge of foam can be placed under the garment. You likely had one of these foam wedges placed in that area initially after surgery. Consult your board-certified plastic surgeon and dedicated staff regarding any...
Stuffy nose after rhinoplasty? I had rhinoplasty about 10 days ago.
Rhinoplasty - Recovery
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your posting! It is very common to feel "stuffy" after rhinoplasty. This is a result of the swelling during the healing process, and it can take some time for this to subside. Many surgeons prescribe a nasal spray to help with this discomfort. Consult with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding any additional recommendations for you. Congratulations on your procedure!
Is it possible to obtain more cleavage? Why did I get such a big space between my chest after BA? (ph
Breast Augmentation
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your question! The space between your breasts is called the intermammary distance. During your examination at your consultation appointment, your surgeon likely measured this. This measurement is important to consider when marking and preparing for surgery, and it is unique to each individual patient. This distance can be addressed with surgery, but results can depend on the patient's anatomy. Consult your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding your concerns.
Will 375cc implants drop and fluff into a larger size? I'm 9 days post op.
Breast Augmentation
Jan 4, 2018
Hello and thank you for your posting! After breast augmentation surgery, "boob greed" is a very common feeling. Most patients feel the same way you do when so early on in the healing process because they are so eager to see their final results. It is important to be patient. Your feelings about your results will likely change once your implants do drop into final position and your swelling subsides. Another thing to consider is that many patients go through an emotional...
Cost and recovery? How long do I take off from work?
Breast Augmentation Cost & Recovery
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your question! Cost for breast augmentation surgery varies depending on the area in which you are searching. It can be helpful to call a few local offices to figure out a range. The recovery time for this procedure is typically about one week. However, everyone does heal at their own pace. Some patients recover sooner, and others need more time. Patients working in an office with minimal activity requirements often take 5-7 days off work. Scheduling surgery on a...
How much weight to lose before breast reduction/lift? I'm 45, 180lbs, 5'7".
Weight Loss Prior to Surgery
Jan 4, 2018
Thank you for your question! Before proceeding with any cosmetic, body-contouring procedure, it is important for patients to be at a healthy, stable weight. The most important reason for this is safety, of course, but, also, fluctuation in weight after surgery can affect final results. Consult with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding his or her recommendations for you. Good luck in your upcoming procedure!
Should I just get breast implants instead of a fat transfer?
Breast Implants vs. Fat Transfer
Nov 9, 2017
Thank you for your posting! It sounds like you have a lot of questions and would definitely benefit from a personal consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. I am happy to help address your initial concerns though in hopes that this will help you feel comfortable enough to call for an appointment! 1) Above or below the muscle refers to pocket placement. Most surgeons prefer under the muscle, but it all depends on your anatomy and overall aesthetic goal....

Mommy Makeover - Recovery
Nov 2, 2017
Thank you for your question. After having multiple cosmetic procedures, it is very important to coordinate your recovery time. If your type of work does not allow you to follow the postoperative guidelines and activity limitations necessary, you might want an additional couple weeks off. Consult with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding his or her recommendations for you. Congratulations on your body makeover!
