Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and concerns.
Having said that, your breast implants for similar dimensions but going larger may or may
not require capsule work to be done. It really depends on how tight or
restricted your breast implants are now. If they are luscious and move

Breakout after microneedling, is this normal?
Breakout after Microneedling
Jan 2, 2019
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! If you had active acne on your skin when you had the treatment done and it spread that bacteria then it is very possible that could be the cause of your breakout. Sometimes, the skin can purge after having a microneedling treatment due to the stimulation of your skin during that treatment. Your skin looks completely normal post-treatment from the looks of your photo. Keep it moisturized and protect it from the sun. Best of luck! For more…

I want to know if I should go for a facial treatment or botox and fillers?
Botox, Filler, Facial treatments
Dec 27, 2018
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! It is hard to tell what you could really benefit from by the picture your posted. Botox is most commonly injected into the glabella (in between the eyebrows), around the eyes (crow’s feet), and the forehead. Most people can benefit from Botox and there is little to no downtime. We also typically recommend that everyone use a form of Vitamin A (retinoic acid). It helps to speed cell turnover (exfoliation rate) since that does slow down as we age…
How long after fillers before I can get a deep pore facial?
Filler and Facials
Dec 27, 2018
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! It all depends on which filler you are getting injected. If it is Juvederm Voluma (deep filler), typically injected into the cheeks and temples, it is fine to get a facial two days after. Any other filler we suggest waiting for about two weeks to let the filler settle completely before getting a deep facial treatment. I would consult with a board certified plastic surgeon prior to getting any facial fillers. Best of luck! For more information,…
What is used to numb your face before microneedling?
Numbing Cream
Dec 26, 2018
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! There are different variations of numbing cream that can be compounded for different procedures. For microneedling we use a compounded BLT (benzocaine/lidocaine/tetracaine) cream in a 20% / 8% / 4% ratio respectively. It makes the patient feel much more comfortable during treatments like microneedling and laser. Best of luck! For more information, please feel free to visit our website!

Should I be concerned about red marks and bruises after IPL treatment?
Bruising after IPL
Dec 26, 2018
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! Intense pulsed light (IPL) is great at treating red vessels and sun damage. When treating vessels, the energy typically needs to be at a higher setting which can sometimes result in bruising and/or swelling after the treatment. Because you have light skin and light hair you should have favorable results despite being bruised at the moment. All of your dark spots should slough off and the bruising should dissipate soon. If the bruising and dark…

No redness after IPL treatment. Was this supposed to happen?
No Change after IPL treatment
Nov 5, 2018
Good morning and thank you for your question! Depending on what exactly you were being treated for, whether that be hyperpigmentation (sun spots) or vascular lesions, would determine how high the energy was during the treatment. Typically, vascular lesions require a higher energy level than sun damage. IPL should always be a progressive treatment rather than an aggressive treatment. Best of luck! For more information please feel free to visit our website!
Are there any lasers developed yet that can remove light colored facial hair?
Laser hair removal and light hair
Oct 18, 2018
Good afternoon and thank you for your question! Unfortunately, there is not enough melanin (pigment) in light-colored hair for the laser to target. Laser hair removal is not suitable for red, blonde, white, or gray hair. It is best for black and brown hair. Electrolysis is an option for lighter hair. Best of luck!
