Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Is It Possible to Transfer Fat from Stomach to Buttocks?
stomach to buttocks is a common option
Oct 28, 2020
Hello

I always recommend at least doing the lower back/love handle area as a minimum, after that , the abdomen is a very common region to also harvest fat from. In our practice, if you are in good health, and BMI less than 30, the price for this procedure is approximately 11,000 when done under general anesthesia. Good luck Dr. K

Male BBL – differences between male and female patients?
Brazilian butt lift for male vs. female patients
Sep 21, 2018
There are important differences between male buttock and female buttock aesthetics. The most obvious one is that males don’t want to look any wider on the anterior posterior view. They just want to have more rounded projection. Your individual preferences may differ, and you may want to discuss your surgery with a surgeon who is experienced in male buttock aesthetics.

The muscle paralysis caused by Dysport is not likely to noticeably affect the tightening obtained during an eyelid lift surgery.
Is liposuction alone enough for treating gynecomastia or is an excision of the gland is needed?
Liposuction and gland excision for male breast reduction
Sep 21, 2018
Most gynecomastia experts would do liposuction followed by direct glandular tissue excision. If liposuction alone was recommended, it may mean that the surgeon who evaluated you  thinks you have pseudogynecomastia where the material is fat and not gland. You may want to get an opinion with a renowned gynecomastia surgeon in your area. In plastic surgery, fame and competence don’t always go hand-in-hand. 
Uneven smile after treating masseters with Dysport.
Dysport
Mar 22, 2018
Some of the Dysport has perhaps migrated to affect surrounding muscles and affect the balance of the muscles during your smiling attempts. Fortunately, the effects are reversible, but it may take up to 3 months.
