52 year old male - am I too old for a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Am I Too Old for Fat Grafting?
Feb 4, 2022

Thanks for your question. When performing fat grafting the "take" of the grafted fat is somewhat unpredictable. Sometimes 60% of the graft may live or "take", many times it's less than that. There are measures that can be taken to maximize the fat graft survival. Such as avoiding excess pressure on the graft sites, keeping the area warm and staying well hydrated should help. Hyperbaric oxygen treatments can also be a benefit. Being young and healthy is a benefit for recovery from any surgery...

What's common with a mommy makeover: Lipo to flanks, or lipo 360?

Liposuction with Tummy Tuck
Feb 4, 2022

Thank you for your question! An abdominoplasty/tummy tuck does a great job tightening the skin of the lower abdomen and the rectus abdominus muscles/6 pack ab muscles. By itself it won't do a lot for your flanks which is the area just above your hip bones- it's referred to as the love handles. Most patients that get a tummy tuck will need some liposuction to their flanks. As to whether the surgeon includes flank liposuction in the price of their tummy tuck, would vary from practice to...

Are my breast implants too high?

The Tale of the Implants #TooHigh or #TooLow #Breastlift #breastaugmentation
Oct 19, 2021

First off I think your breast augmentation looks great. It has a very natural appearance.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "they don''t look right" ? In your title you ask "are my implants too high?". It does not appear your implants are too high. Your natural breast tissue hangs a little below your implants, but that serves to make them look more natural in my opinion. Plastic surgeons would describe you as anatomically as low breasted. This means your breasts are situated relatively...

Is breast reduction the right choice for me?

To Reduce or Not to Reduce #breastreduction
Oct 19, 2021

Thanks for your question! The most important thing is for you to get an in-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss with you at length the pros and cons of a breast reduction. This is especially important because you're 19 and therefore most of your life is still ahead of you and your breasts will continue to change throughout your lifetime. Once you've had a breast reduction, you will always have had a breast reduction. It will make breast feeding more difficult...

27yo, no children. Priority is natural looking breasts - can this be achieved with high profile

What are the best implants for me/It's different for everyone
Sep 24, 2021

Of course it's always best to have an in-person evaluation by your board certified plastic surgeon. This is the best way for your surgeon to help you decide what is the best option for your breast augmentation. As for an online opinion I think the option you outlined would accomplish the goals you stated.
Implants placed above the pectoralis major muscle have pros and cons just like below the muscle does. As a generalization people that like to lift weights might very well appreciate the...

Pulling sensation in left breast - Should I see a doctor immediately or see whether it goes away

Pulling sensation, changing sensation after breast augmentation/breast implants
Sep 24, 2021

From your question, it sounds like you've only been experiencing this pulling sensation for a brief time period, because of that I think that there is no emergency here. I don't think you need to get in to see a plastic surgeon urgently. It could wait for a week or more to see if it goes away on its own. Alternatively, you might call a plastic surgeon now to get an appointment scheduled in a non-urgent fashion. If it gets better you can always call and cancel your appointment or go in to get...

I want a breast augmentation w a large implant. Do I need a breast lift too or can the implant f

Breast augmentation, structured saline implant/Ideal Implant, mastopexy/breast lift.
Aug 20, 2021

Thanks for your question! It's always beneficial to be seen in person because posted photographs can be deceiving. From your photographs it appears that you have grade III ptosis (droopy breast) on the right side of your picture and at least grade II maybe III on the left side of your picture. Presuming that it is confirmed in person, you will need a breast lift to achieve a nice outcome. If you placed even an 800cc implant your breast would still hang down over the implant.
You have fairly...

I think I have wide set breasts and I don’t know how to fix them?

Out turned breasts, possible improvement solutions with breast augmentation/implants and or mastopexy/breast lift.
Aug 20, 2021

You do have relatively wide set breasts, which is not an uncommon feature. You are correct, exercise won't change this and even surgery has limits to the improvement you should expect. Your best option is an in-person consultation with your plastic surgeon to review your options. Some of the options that might be discussed are:
A circumareolar (donut) mastopexy could be done to reposition your nipple/areola slightly more to the middle. You could also consider placing breast implants,...

Will I lose core mobility after having a tummy tuck?

Tummy-tuck/abdominoplasty, rectus diastasis/muscle repair, core strength/mobility
Aug 20, 2021

Thank you for your question! The long term rectus diastasis repair should not effect your core strength or mobility negatively. I recommend that my patients not engage the core for a minimum of eight weeks after this surgery. This is to protect the repair during initial healing. After the resting period, patients can gradually increase their core workout. Obviously, it will take some time until you return to your baseline but it should be achievable. Some patients with significant rectus...

Can I get Botox before an under eye bleph procedure?

Botox and Lower Lid Blepharoplasty
May 25, 2021

First always check with your personal surgeon for their preference. However, if your surgery is 3 months away and you're getting the botox soon most of the botox effect should be worn off by the time of the surgery. In general, the effects of botox lasts around 3 months.

Am I a candidate for a mommy makeover with BMI 37?

BMI and best way for #mommymakeover and #bodycontouring
May 21, 2021

Thank you for question it brings up a lot of issues that are important to review. First I have a question for you to ponder. Are you happy with your current weight? Understand that no plastic surgery is weight loss surgery. Weight loss surgery is bariatric surgery. Plastic surgery is contouring. No plastic surgery will make it harder or easier to gain or lose weight after the surgery. The best time to do any plastic surgery is when you have obtained and maintained the best possible weight...

Do I need mini facelift or liposuction for a more contoured jawline?

Jawline Contouring with Facelift, Liposuction- or Both?
May 21, 2021

Thanks for your question. You probably could get some improvement with either technique. You would most likely get more of what you're looking for with the facelift option. Additionally, many times a mini facelift might incorporate some liposuction which would probably be your best option. In your description you mention wearing facelift tape. In your pictures you demonstrate pulling your skin tighter as a desired outcome. This indicates that you would likely be happier with skin tightening,...

Is the stomach muscle that is cut during c-sections repaired during mommy makeover?

Mommy Makeover R' Us #weightloss #musclerepair #implants #breastlift #RealTalkwithDrE
Feb 2, 2021

1) Thanks for your questions. For any plastic surgery it is always best to be at your goal weight before surgery. Getting to the best weight that you can maintain before surgery is the most important thing. The key factor here would be maintaining that weight. Granted if you had significant weight loss you probably would like to be at a stable weight for at least 3, preferably 6 months before surgery. Maintaining your goal weight AFTER surgery is more important for preserving your results....

How long will it take for nicotine/cotinine to get out of my system so I can pass the test?

Nicotine and Plastic Surgery Don't Mix #RealTalkwithDr.E
Dec 11, 2020

Thank you for your question. TBH, I'm not really sure how long you need to be nicotine free to pass "the test". However, that's not what you should really be worried about. Your main concern should be making sure your nicotine free for an adequate length of time for your surgery. The absolute minimum time you should be nicotine free before your surgery is two weeks, but longer would be safer. Nicotine is a very powerful vasoconstrictor (cuts off blood flow). That can mean the difference...

I would like to know how long the surgeries would take in one setting.

Tummy-tuck, Breast Implant Removal, and Fat grafting Time Estimate
Dec 11, 2020

This is a difficult question to answer accurately without seeing you in person. Not every explant and lift- or any other surgery is exactly the same. Some are more difficult if there is capsular contracture or any other reason to remove the capsule. As well as the amount of breast lift and fat grafting that are indicated. Same goes for the mini tummy tuck. Additionally, different surgeons work at different paces. One surgeon being faster or slower does not necessarily make them better or...
