Answer Snippet
Hemoglobin at 10.5 MMO safe? 29 year old female, 5’4 and 104 pounds. What is considered safe
Anemia
Sep 14, 2023
Sep 14, 2023
First, you should see your private physician to see why you are anemic. If low Iron, then either iron pills with Vitamin C will help or even Iron injections work very well.
I personally do not have issues with a healthy individual having a mommy makeover with a starting hemoglobin of 10.4. But I always start my patients on iron and vitamin C pre-op when anemic.
Best wishes,
Dr. Taranow

Advice for achieving the best anchor breast lift scar possible?
Scar prevention
Sep 14, 2023
Sep 14, 2023
I start by using the shortest scar possible. I try not to extend it laterally as this is the most common area for hypertrophic or keloid scars to form. Next, I use intradermal sutures (this avoids the needle holes that go on the outside of the skin on either side of the incision. Lastly, I use paper tape for a few weeks till totally closed and then switch to 3M silicone tape which I continue for several months.

What will get rid of this sad face looking tummy?
Abdomen issues post liposuction
Sep 12, 2023
Sep 12, 2023
First, we really need proper photos of your abdomen: naked from pubis to just below breast crease, anterior and side views. A last picture with you leaning over 90 degrees taken from the side as well.
This will answer if further liposuction (which I doubt is an option) vs an abdominoplasty is necessary.

We agreed on 405cc at my consultation. What size do you recommend for me?
implant selection
Aug 25, 2023

While 405 is a good size, it really depends on what you want to look like. I have patients bring me 'wish pics' of naked breasts. Then I order several sizes and use a sizer during the procedure to make sure I use the correct size. Many times, the rib anatomy is different and a larger implant was required to obtain the correct results. You may be able to increase by 30-50cc's.

What do you recommend to improve my tummy and give me larger breasts?
Breast augmentation and an abdominoplasty
Aug 23, 2023
Aug 23, 2023
You look great now, but if larger breasts are desired, a breast augmentation would solve this issue.
You belly also looks good, but you have some extra skin and a little fat. I have to offer an abdominoplasty in someone with your abdomen, but it appears you have loose skin above AND below the belly button which makes you a candidate for the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
