Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
8 weeks post-op. Why isn't my incision fully healing?
Delayed wound healing
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. Sometimes deep sutures 'spit' and cause little suture abscesses that result in these little open areas. I would suggest you follow the advice of your plastic surgeon and they will heal up in no time. Good Luck.
How much do Natrelle gel gummy bear implants cost in 2019 (round, moderate)?
Cost of Implants
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. The price of implants vary by practice, state and multiple other factors. I would recommend meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your options.
I have Allergan Natrelle 410 highly cohesive textured implants after PDM 6 years ago. Shou
Should I remove my implants.
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. I would recommend that you get evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon. It seems like you have issues on your right side that may need to be addressed without an examination. The surgeon can discuss your risks of ALCL. At this time, the recommendation is an examination to ensure that there is no signs suggestive of ALCL. Even with this recommendation, some patients have decided they want to switch their implants. The risk of ALCL is low but I think giv...
Would I be a good candidate for a panniculectomy?
Panniculectomy or Not
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. Based on your issues, you will be a good candidate for removal of the excess skin. This skin can be addressed with either a panniculectomy or abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). A panniculectomy will just remove the excess skin, the abdominoplasty will also tighten the rectus muscles (abdominal muscles) which will help to give you a flatter abdomen after surgery. Please seek out a board certified plastic surgeon. Good Luck.
Nipple sensitivity after breast augmentation. Is there still hope that I may regain sensat
Nipple Sensation Post Op
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. At one year, 9 months post operatively, I think that your nipple sensation is likely what it is going to be. 
Is it normal that my left implant isn’t dropping or has become displaced?
Implants dropping post surgery.
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. It can take up to 6 months for implants to settle in position. It is definitely not uncommon for one side to fall before the other. Give it some time and then re evaluate with your plastic surgeon. Good Luck.
I'm 5ft and weigh 125lbs. Would a breast fat transfer or implants be better for me? (photo
Breast Augmentation - Implants vs Fat Transfer
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. Whether you choose implants or fat transfer will depend on your goals post operatively. Implants will result on long lasting fullness, whereas fat transfer will fluctuate with weight fluctuations. I would have these discussions with your plastic surgeon and then decide accordingly. Good Luck!
2 weeks post op and still pretty sore with muscle spasms frequently, is that normal?
Spasms Post Op
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. After a breast augmentation, muscle spasms are very common. I would recommend that you take your muscle relaxants as needed. Good Luck!
Is this splitting stitch a common occurrence, and will it clear on its own?
Spitting Sutures
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. It is not uncommon for the body to spit sutures after surgery. Usually once it is out of the way, the body will heal and the incision will close. Good Luck.
One Breast fluffier and bigger than other, 5 weeks PO. Did it drop? Why did I have a fever
Post Op Differences
May 14, 2019
Thank you for your question. Given your concerns, I would suggest that you get assessed by your board certified plastic surgeon. It is hard to tell without a full examination. Good Luck.
Will I need a lift in addition to implants? I'm worried about scarring. Thoughts?
Do I need a lift?
May 13, 2019
Thanks for your question. Looking at your pictures, your nipples are hanging a little lower than ideal, as a result of this, your best result would include a lift. However based on the size of the implants you choose and if placed in a dual plane you may get a natural lift of your nipple. I would recommend that you meet with a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss your options.
I’m getting lipo on flanks with breast reduction. Will it be noticeable right away? Can I
Return to work after Breast Reduction and flank liposuction
May 13, 2019
Thank you for your question. Everyone has different level of tolerance for pain. Many patients are able to return to work after 1 week but time will tell. If you have a desk job, it may be easier to return at 1 week. Please discuss with your plastic surgeon, re activity restrictions.
How did I get a third degree burn from my breast reduction operation?
Bruising after breast reduction.
May 13, 2019
Thank you for your question. After a breast reduction, sometimes the skin has issues with healing and results in the purplish areas which progressed and now that that tissue has been cleared away, you will be able to heal and still have a great result.
What are my risks? And I also have sleep apnea. Would the sleep apnea affect me having the
timing for a tummy tuck
Feb 11, 2019
Thank you for your question. I think you should wait until you are finished having kids before a tummy tuck. The rectus diastasis is repaired at the time of the tummy tuck and would get stretched if you were to get pregnant again. Good luck!
Please help with an explanation for odd profile post tummy tuck?
Post Tummy tuck
Feb 11, 2019
Thank you for your question. You are still early after your tummy tuck, sometimes the swelling is a bit more significant in the lower abdomen as it is the most dependent portion. I would suggest continue your compression garment and keep your follow up appointments with your surgeon. Good Luck!Tahira Prendergast MD
