Why are edges so bumpy and uneven after labiaplasty and will it change?

Healing after labia reduction
May 23, 2014

Early distortion of the labia is common after all methods of labia reduction. The dissolving sutures hold the tissue tight and the swelling around the stitches causes the bumps that you see. As noted by the other surgeons, you will see the result in about 3 months, but additional softening of the labia can take up to 6 months.

How much does a labia minora cost?

Labiaplasty cost
May 22, 2014

Hello,With intravenous sedation and local anesthesia performed in our office based state licensed surgical center the total cost is approximately $2500. This includes the surgeon and anesthesiologist fees, supplies, and nursing costs. If performed with oral sedation, ie take a pill, and local anesthesia the cost is $2000, since an anesthesiologist is not needed. I hope this answers you question.John Borkowski, M.D.

Swelling after male breast reduction
May 22, 2014

Hello,Swelling and some difference in size are normal after these procedures. Prior to the procedure, most patients have some degree of asymmetry not only in the area of the gynecomastia, but also of the size of the pectoralis muscle. The gynecomastia tissue can also vary from soft fat to dense breast tissue and this will affect the postoperative swelling. The more muscular you are, and you appear to be muscular, the more obvious the swelling, because it tends...

Explant/Lift at the Same Time.

Breast Impant Removal and Breast Lift
Apr 4, 2012

Hi,

Yes, both procedures can be done simultaneously. Having stated that, you may be suprised how much the breasts shrink after implant removal, especially if you have a decent amount of natural tissue. A lot depends on the condition of the tissues and your age. That procedure is easy and should be relatively inexpensive with little down time. An added benefit is no more scars. So if you're not sure, try this first, wait 3 months and them decide if...

Early 20s with Loss of Resiliency and Wrinkling Under Eyes. Solutions?

Lower Eyelids
Apr 4, 2012

Hi,

Part of the answer depends on the appearance you are trying to achieve. There appears to be a slight protrusion of the inner fat pad and the inner bony margin of your eyesocket is visible (tear trough). One approach would be to remove or reposition the fat pad through an inner eyelid incision (transconjunctival approach) and release the attachments causing the tear troughs.

A second possiblity is to camouflage the fat pad and tear trough with some type of...

Butt Augmentation with Fat That Has Been Frozen for Up to a Year?

Buttock Augmentation, Fat Grafts to Buttocks, Frozen Fat
Apr 3, 2012

Hello,

Fat is a delicate tissue that requires special handling while being removed. It requires a good blood supply to survive. At a plastic surgery meeting last year, a presenter demonstrated fat that had been grafted after being frozen for different lenghts of time. Although some of the fat survived after being frozen for 30 days, the volume and quality was poor and the recommendation is to use the fat immediately after it is removed. Other...

Am I a Candidate for Lipo/Brazilian Butt Lift?

Liposuction and Butt Lift
Mar 14, 2012

If you can lose the weight and reasonably maintain the weight loss, do that first. The photo is a little dark. Given the fact that you are 23, have not been pregnant, and are 5'7", the assumption is that your skin is elastic enough to contract (shrink) and not sag after the liposuction. The liposuction of the flanks and back will serve to purposes; first, the liposuction will make your buttocks look bigger because the surrounding fat will be less;...

Fat Transfer to Buttocks and Genital Herpes.
Mar 14, 2012

Hello,

As long as there is no outbreak there should not be a problem. There is also no harm taking a suppressive medication such as Valtrex several days before and a week after just to be on the safe side.

Can You Get a Butt Augmentation with Fat After Bio Gel Injection?

Buttock Augmetation with Foreign Substances
Mar 14, 2012

Don't ever do that again!!!!

These materials are not FDA approved for this use. Injection of these gels and injecting silicone of any volume, but especially the amount needed to augment buttocks or breasts, can lead to permanent disfigurement. Cysts, calcifications, abscesses, migration of the material are known problems. Inadvertent injection into a blood vessel can cause embolization of the product to areas beyond the injected area. You're lucky...

I Used an Ice Pack on my Face Following Upper Bleph Surgery to Reduce Swelling on my Face, But It Bu

Blepharoplasty and Ice Packs
Mar 14, 2012

Tough question to answer without photos and more information. First of all, your surgeon is in the best position to evaluate an manage your problem. It is suprising that you were able to leave the ice pack on long enough to cause an injury to the skin. Usually the pain from the cold will make you want to remove it before any injury occurs. Also why one lower lid and not the other? Another possiblity is a contact dermatitis from something on the pack or...

How Long After a Breast Reduction can One get Implants?

Breast Augmentation after Reduction-Risks and Timing
Mar 14, 2012

Hello,

There shouldn't be any additional risks with augmenting breasts that have been reduced. The greastest concern is making sure that you and your surgeon are on the same wavelength with regard to size and shape. The operation may be a bit more difficulf for the surgeon depending on the degree of scarring wihin the breast. Six months seems to be a reasonable minimal time between operations. It gives the tissues and incisions a chance to soften...

After BA, The Ring Around my Right Areola Feels Like It Has Snapped, It Doesn't Contract Anymore, Wh

Change in Areola after Breast Augmentation and Mastopexy(Breast Lift)
Mar 14, 2012

Hello,

Review of the photo indicates that you had a breast lift in addtion to the augmetation. The hard ring is caused by a permanent suture that is placed in the skin around the areola and then tightened around the areola to minimize the chance of the areola becoming too large and to prevent the scar from widening. Probably the suture on the right loosened or broke and the areola widened. Because the areola on the right is stretched more than the left, the muscle...

Is There a Procedure for Shaving Bone off the Back of the Head?

Fold in the Back of the Scalp
Mar 14, 2012

Hello,

I'll try to answer with the information available. Are you sure it's bone and not just a fold in the scalp? Did you have any injuries or operation in this area that caused the scalp to stick to the bone? If it is just a fold in the scalp that is stuck to the bone, then the fold can be detached from the bone. If it is bone, this needs to be confirmed with an X-ray to determine the thickness of the bone. If it is bone and it is thick enough, the...

Liposuction and Recently Overweight
Feb 20, 2012

Hello Kure 1182,

Liposuction can be used to treat contour problems in overweight individual. But, it is not your best option. You are 20 years old and gained 50 pounds per year. Putting the "why" aside, you have your youth and rapid weight gain on your side to lose the weight. Without even going to the extremes of diet and exercise, you should be able to lose 50 to 75 pounds before the wedding. While not getting you to your ideal weight, that...

What Are Some Risks I Can Expect Getting Breast Augmentation and How to Prevent Them?

Bottoming Out and Double Bubble after Breast Augmentation
Feb 14, 2012

Hello,

Bottoming out is caused by lowering the lower fold of the breast excessively combined with too large and, therefore, too heavy an implant.

The double bubble is usually associated with augmentation in breasts that have a developmental abnormality. The bottom fold is too high or the breast is constricted and tuberous. These problems need to be corrected at the time of the augmentation. Again, the breast implant size needs to be appropriate to your...
