Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Am I candidate for a mini or full tummy tuck?
The way to decide depends on the skin laxity above the belly button.
Oct 10, 2023
The way to decide depends on the skin laxity above the belly button. If you can pinch the skin and have good laxity, then you need a full tummy tuck. If the area above is very tight, then you might be able to get away with mini. My experience has been that patients are usually happier with the full compared to the mini. Your surgeon should be able to direct you the right way. Also, amount of pregnancies you had or weight changes play a role. The more you have, the more likely you need a full...
What would be the best procedure for removing thigh fat without general anesthesia?
Awake 360 liposuction to the thighs is a very good option.
Oct 10, 2023
Awake 360 liposuction to the thighs is a very good option. Make sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has a lot of experience when it comes to doing awake procedures. I hope that helps.
I have just been diagnosed with stage 1 moving into stage 2 lipoedema. What are my lipo optio
In most cases, we prefer Power Assisted Liposuction using tumescent anesthesia.
Sep 21, 2023
The best treatment would be liposuction. It would be best to choose a surgeon who does a high volume of lipedema liposuction due to the extreme necessity for expertise, especially in areas such as knees, calves, and ankles. In most cases, we prefer Power Assisted Liposuction using tumescent anesthesia.
Make sure also that your surgeon is double-board-certified. I hope this helps.
What implant gives cleavage, projection, side boobs and lower pole please?
It is about choosing the right dimensions that fit your breast width.
Sep 2, 2023
It is about choosing the right dimensions that fit your breast width. Measurements and fitting the right implant will give you the best results.
Make sure that you're evaluated by a specialist, who performs large volumes of breast augmentation with great lots of before and afters. Also, make sure that the physician is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
Big guy tummy tuck, 48M, 5’11”, 250 lbs, down from 310, is it a good idea for me?
Try to get to a stable weight for around 6 months before proceeding with the procedure.
Aug 17, 2023
If a patient already reached a stable weight, then he can be a good candidate for a tummy tuck. However, if someone is still ACTIVELY losing weight, then he has to wait until it stabilizes at least around six(6) months before he may proceed with the procedure. Otherwise, if he keeps losing weight and does the tummy tuck, there is a greater chance that he will have more laxity in the future.
Make sure to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon if you wish to proceed with the procedure.

Breast lift and augmention is unsafe?
Breast Augmentation with Lift can be Done Together
Aug 3, 2023
Yes. Breast Augmentation with lift can be safely combined or done together - especially for someone who's young and healthy.
These procedures can also be done awake without the need for general anesthesia and have the benefit of quicker recovery.
I hope this helps. I also recommend consulting in person with your surgeon to assess your case better.
Do you think I should have had some skin grafted in this pore before it was sutured?
Acne treatment
May 14, 2018
Thank you for your question.
Deep acne scars sometimes are treated with punch excision. The small hole is closed with a single suture and usually heals very well. Skin graft is not indicated in these cases.
I hope that answers your question
Can I get rid of a hump that is on only one side of my nose bridge without surgery?
Non surgical nose job
May 14, 2018
Report
Thank you for your question.
Dorsal hump or nasal humps can be corrected with hyaluronic acid filler. Small amount is injected above and below the hump to camouflage fullness.
I hope this helps.
Liposuction.
Liposuction areas

Report
Thank you for your question. In general outer and inner thigh areas are considered two separate areas of liposuction.
I hope that answers your question.
Liposuction or not?
Liposuction
May 14, 2018
Report
Thank you for your question.
Without any questions it is very hard to tell. But in general if the fullness is from fat deposition in the subcutaneous tissue under the skin then liposuction works very well. Also important to evaluate skin laxity before liposuction to make sure the skin will redrape well afterwards.

We charge 250$ per vial of asclera. It has 2 cc in it and can treat multiple veins. Most veins will need 2-3 treatments.

I had chin liposuction 3 weeks ago. Large lump under chin. Advice?
Chin Liposuction
Apr 15, 2018
Thank you for your question.

Mild irregularities soon after liposuction is not uncommon and respond very well to massage. However if it doesnt get better with time then you might need to find out the etiology. It can be fat, scar, fluid collection etc... Treatment is then according to the cause. Make sure you follow up with your surgeon
I hope this helps. I recommend that you consult in person with an expert board certified plastic surgeon.

I have acne scars and a hole in my face, what is the best treatment to resolve these issue
Acne scars treatment
Apr 15, 2018
Thank you for your question.

My preferred way to treat acne scars is subscision with bellafil and multiple treatments of microneedling. For ice pick scar, excision and closure works very well.

Treating acne scars with pocket drafting with dermal graft?
Treating acne scars with pocket drafting with dermal graft?
Dec 25, 2017
Thank you for your question. There is no simple answer to your problem. A combination approach will give you improvement to your condition. My preferred way is scar subcision, HA filling and then followed by microneedling with PRP.
I hope this helps.
Sculptra in the temples?
Correcting volume loss in the temple area
Dec 25, 2017
The temple area is one of the common area missed by injectors. For immediate results fillers made of hyaluronic acid work best. Sculptra works by stimulating your body to make new collagen. It works very well but in needs 2-3 months to get the desired outcome and you might need more than one treatment.
Best of luck. See an expert and a board certified plastic surgeon as this area of the face is trickier than others.
