Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Will pricing for the implants be an option to discuss in the pre-op appointment?
Breast Implant Pricing
Nov 6, 2016
At our practice, patients are given pricing information during the initial phone call prior to scheduling a consultation. We want our patients to have an idea regarding the price, so they can concentrate on the surgical plan, recovery details, and all of the other important information discussed at the consultation. Once a patient and I have decided on the best surgical plan, they are taken to a patient coordinator to review the surgical schedule, quote, financing options, etc. 
I’m about 15 lbs from my goal weight. Will it make a huge difference in my Breast Lift and Au
Weight Loss
Nov 6, 2016
Congratulations on being close to your goal weight! We encourage patients to be approximately 10-15 lbs away from their goal weight at the time of consultation in order to ensure the most accurate measurements and sizing. If you tend to carry weight in your breasts, you may lose a little volume with any weight loss post surgery. Best of luck! 
How much time to take off for a breast augmentation if I’m a hair stylist?
Recovery time
Nov 6, 2016
Great question! That should be plenty of time to recover. I encourage patients to limit any upper body activity for approximately two weeks. When you return to work, listen to your body. If something does not feel right, stop that activity, and contact your surgeon immediately if you have questions or concerns. The first two weeks are the most critical in the recovery process. 
Is there a weight limit requirement for a breast augmentation?
BMI Requirement
Nov 6, 2016
Great question! We encourage patients to achieve and maintain a healthy BMI prior to consultation. Safety is our top priority–an unhealthy BMI could lead to increased risks and complications. To ensure the most aesthetically pleasing result, it is best to be as close to your goal weight as possible. It is always helpful to bring photos to your consultation of the look you find most desirable. Our practice prefers Mentor implants due to a superior look and feel. Best of luck! 
Payment options. Is credit card payment possible?
Methods of payment
Nov 6, 2016
Thank you for your question! I think you will find that most cosmetic surgery practices accept credit card payments. It would be best to contact the practice you are considering just to verify. A patient coordinator will be able to answer any questions regarding the payment schedule and financing options.  Most practices will require the surgical balance to be paid at least 14 days in advance.  Best of luck! 
Mammary intercourse after breast augmentation…how long should I wait?
Breast Surgery
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your question and congratulations on your surgery. I would advise that you contact your surgeon and seek out his/her advise. Everyone heals a little differently, but typically at 6 weeks my patients can resume all activities.
Can I have a breast augmentation without breast lifting based on my breast condition?
Breast Surgery
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your question and for your picture. Based on your photograph alone it appears that you are an excellent candidate for a breast augmentation. If you didn’t fell comfortable with any of the plastics surgeons that you have consulted with so far, I would advise you to continue you search.
2 weeks post op. What is OK and what activities should I be avoiding.
2 weeks post breast augmentation
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your question and congratulations on your breast augmentation. Every surgeon is a little different so I would advise speaking with your surgeon regarding specifics with your post operative care.
I need help. How much does it cost to get my butt and breasts done?
Breast Surgery
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your question and for your photograph. The procedures that you are interested in are considered cosmetic. Because of this they will not be covered by insurance.
Could I get a nice result with only BA, or do I need a lift?
Breast Surgery
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your question and for your picture. Based on the photo alone it appears that you would be an excellent candidate for a breast augmentation only. In order to ensure that you are aware of all your options I would recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon.
Do I have tuberous breasts?
Breast Surgery
Sep 30, 2016
Thank you for your questions and for your pictures. I think a breast augmentation alone would address all of your concerns. It would help to increase the size and improve your symmetry. Once the proportions of your breast have changed I would imagine you would feel better about the size of your nipples. In order to be aware of all your options I would recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon.
Why are my breasts like this and is there anything I can do to change them?
Tuberous Breasts
Sep 29, 2016
Thank you for your question and for your pictures. It appears that you have tuberous breasts. This is fairly common in my practice and can usually be improved with a breast augmentation. I recommend consulting with a few board certified plastic surgeons in order to better know your options.

6 month post breast augmentation
Sep 29, 2016
Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that you are having a difficult time post surgery. Your symptoms suggest a possible infection. It would be best to contact your surgeon as soon as possible.
When can I use arms for stabilizing exercises post Breast Augmentation?
Exercise post breast augmentation
Sep 29, 2016
Thank you for your question and congratulations on your breast augmentation. It’s best to speak with your surgeon before doing any type of exercise post surgery.
Stress recovering from BA!
stressful recovery
Sep 29, 2016
Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that you’re having a difficult time post breast augmentation. It’s very normal to experience a roller coaster of emotions post surgery, and in fact it’s something I discuss with all my patient’s preoperatively. For you it’s probably been magnified due to the stress with your children. As long as you are careful with your arm activity and you don’t do any heavy lifting I wouldn’t expect there to be any issues with your breasts long term. I k…
