Reduction

Hi Canuck, thanks for the question. I am also an Alberta surgeon who has to have this conversation with patients daily. We used to have the ability to base our surgical decisions on clinical findings and subjective patient complaints (neck/back/shoulder pain, shoulder grooving, intertrigo etc.) but that is not longer the case. There are a lot of complicated techniques to try and determine pre-operative volume but I try to keep it simple in my practice. The way that I explain it to my…
5 weeks post breast reduction weird discoloration. – I am just wondering if this is normal/permanent
Areola

Mar 10, 2019
You have a really nice result, but once the rest of that swelling comes out I’m sure things will look even better. In regards to the “smudge” there are a few things that it could be… a bruise is still possible, although I do agree that at this point in your healing it should be resolved, you could also have some post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. The most common thing that show up in this region after breast reduction is your old areola. If your areola was really large befor…

Lifting

Follow the recommendations from your chosen surgeon. In my practice this procedure comes with 2 weeks of a 10lb weight restriction on lifting. For young moms I suggest sitting on a couch and having someone lift you babies onto your lap so you can still get your cuddles, but always follow your post operative recommendations from your surgeon!
Could this open area post breast reduction be infected?
Normal

Sep 15, 2018
Hello,
An in person examination would be needed to make sure that there is no active infection, but based upon the pictures you look like you are healing very normally. A lot of surgeons won’t admit it but this area breaks down pretty frequently (I see it in about 3-5% of my patients). It is called a T-junction dehiscence, and I counsel all of my potential lift and reduction patients at our pre-operative consult that they might go through this, but that it almost always heals…

Reduction concerns

It is quite common to have different sensations after any breast surgery. There is typical shooting electric pains, that are due to swelling resolving around the nerves. This can also trigger the hypersensitivity to the nipples. In my practice, when patients have hypersensitive nipples, I often suggest that they wear nipple pads, which can be purchased at most running stores. This will keep the sensitivity to a minimum. These sensation changes almost always improve over the subsequent weeks…

Up in smoke
Mar 5, 2016
Mar 5, 2016
Thanks for the question, which is one that I am very militant about in my practice, because I have seen significantly higher rates of complications and poor outcomes in the smokers in my practice.I now have all of my smokers quit smoking for three months and then pass a cotinine urine test before I consider them an acceptable surgical candidate. I came up with these regulations through discussion with my anaesthesia colleagues, and after looking at large meta-analyses which show that…
7 days PO – when will pain end? Implants are under the muscle
New Pain
Feb 20, 2016
Feb 20, 2016
It would be nice to have some before pics and details of the surgery, as well as some after pictures with your top completely off so that we can see the borders of the chest wall. New onset pain is not a good sign. Depending on implant size and difficulty of dissection (ie submuscluar position, bleeding etc), it is reasonable for there to still be pain at 1 week, but it would be expected that it would be getting better every day, not worse.Most patients do find that their breasts feel very…
