Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I have very large heavy breasts. (40 DD) Could my breasts be the cause of my neck pain?
Can Macromastic cause neck pain
Feb 10, 2019
Absolutely you the cause of your neck and back pain can be from enlarged breast. I would have a consultation to see if this is indeed your problem. 
Am I going too big?
Too big?
Dec 1, 2018
This one is super easy. You need to go look for vision board photos on here. Your height and weight are meaningless. At the end of the day you are going for a look not a size. The implant that creates that look is what you want. If it takes a 300, 385, 450 or 800 cc implant to achieve the look you want thats what matters. I do not lock a patient into a size. We try on implants to ballpark it but ultimately I order many sizes and then I have them give me their top vision board wish pic off ...
Is my tummy tuck infected and botched?
Botched?
Nov 28, 2018
I can't say botched because those are pretty strong words. I feel that you had not normal wound healing problems and that happens. I have a patient with a belly button healing issue now as well. It happens. Personally I feel a BBL and tummy tuck together are aggressive surgeries but I know other surgeons that do it. Your belly button has died it looks like from the photo but I can not say for sure without seeing you. The other areas I feel are probably from the lipo and tummy tuck being d...
Tummy tuck and medical clearance question
Clearance
Nov 27, 2018
It has nothing to do with the antibiotic at all. Its all about assessing risk. It depends on what you are having done, how long the procedure is and how many other medical problems you do or do not have. They are just trying to make sure the risk is as low as it can be. There is no such thing as no risk. You are either low, moderate or high risk. It sounds like your cardiologist feel you are safe to proceed but ultimately its up to the comfort of your surgeon and the anesthesiologists. 
How can I fix my nipples when they are pointing in different directions?
Nipples Off
Nov 27, 2018
I just did a case like yours. Very difficult surgery. Especially when you are trying to fix someone else's work. But it can be done. You need to be very realistic with your expectations of what is possible vs what you see in your mind for a result. It looks like you have too much implant towards the cleavage on the right and not enough out to the side. You likely need a wider implant and that will help to centralize the nipple better. But, these cases are so patient specific and literally...
How big am I going to be adding 25cc vs 40cc? Fixing capsular contracture
Volume change
Nov 16, 2018
That volume is negligable really. I do not start to see change until almost 100 cc increments. Being that said I can not say from your photos volume will fix that dent. The real question is what is that from. Is it the pectorals muscle edge or is it just a soft tissue defect. If its soft tissue you may just need some fat transfer. If you have a real contracture you will need a cjpsulecotmy but It does not seem to me that adding volume is going to fix your problem. I would really need to see...
How to get rid of heterogeneous mass after a tummy tuck?
Mass
Nov 16, 2018
Very hard to make anything of that. One may have nothing to do with the other. The mass may have developed in coincidence with surgery. Or maybe it is a small blood clot or something else but I am not sure they are related really. Follow up and don't ignore it. 
Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, and Breast Augmentation for 22 y.o. Bariatric Patient? IS it possible to
Multiple Procedures
Nov 15, 2018
First congrats on the weight loss. That is so awesome. If you are healthy then yes these can all be done at the same time. Make sure you choose the right surgeon and are evaluated properly. 
What is the best ccs to even out my asymmetric breasts?
What Implant
Nov 14, 2018
My personal opinion is that is totally trial and error. I would perform a reduction basically on the right then try different size implants until it is as close as possible in the operating room. Your surgeon should be able to use sizers in the operating room to figure out the right implants. He or she is amazing if they are so skilled that they can just say 500 and 300 cc implants is what you need. They can't tell that. No way. This is a very difficult case so make sure you trust your...
How many ccs should I get for smaller implants?
What size?
Nov 14, 2018
This is a great question. So it is a very difficult one to answer here in this forum because physical exam and taking to you about what your goals would be are paramount to deciding on implant size. What I do with my patients in this scenario is the following. I do not talk cup size at all because all bras are sized very different. This is about a look you are trying to achieve. I use vision board photos to determine what my patients want. So I ask them to go on real self and look for b...
How long post BA before you can comfortably side-sleep? 16 weeks post
Side Sleep
Nov 12, 2018
I let my patients side sleep after about 6 weeks. No front at all and usually you just have to let your body be your guide. Problem with side sleeping is many people end up on their front. 
I'm super scared about travelling after a 1 week stay?
Travel
Nov 12, 2018
It really just depends. One week could be totally fine. Every patient is different. Two weeks is what I like for home recovery for my patients but if you travel home and stay put you should be fine. 
Do implants at risk of rupture need to be replaced in 10-15 years?
Do Implants Need Replacement Every 10 Years
Nov 7, 2018
Absolutely not. I made a post about this on my instagram a week or two ago @drrichardjbrown if you are interested. It is an absolute myth. Only replace them if you have problems with them or related to them.
New bruises under both breasts 2 weeks post op. Does this need to be drained?
Bruises
Nov 7, 2018
This appear to just be normal bruises that will resolve in time. I would see you surgeon to make sure it is to any other issue but I am sure its pretty simple bruising. 
What can I do to prevent bottoming out happening again and avoid a 4th surgery?
Revision Beast
Sep 25, 2018
I would need so much more information to help you. I do not know what your frame is like, I have no idea if you have had mesh placed or not. These cases can be very complicated for sure and an in office consult is the best way to really know and guide you. You should pick a very well respected board certified plastic surgeon who does a lot of breast surgery. I do a ton of breast including breast cancer reconstruction which has really helped me with my cosmetic breast surgery. There are too...
