Will hrt effect breast growth after implants. If so how?
Breast growth with HRT
Sep 26, 2019
Dear JumanjiM,
Thank you for your question. According to the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Standards of care, which are available for free online (see link below), most physical changes from hormonal therapy will occur over the course of 2 years. The amount of change to expect is variable. The onset of breast growth typically begins within 3-6 months. The expected maximum effect on breast growth generally takes 2-3 years. Please note that the degree and…
I’m in good health; what’s the maximum age for breast reconstruction for a woman with bilateral mas
Is there an age limit on breast reconstruction after mastectomy?
Sep 26, 2019
Thank you for your excellent question. First, congratulations on being 10 years cancer free! As for breast reconstruction, there is no defined age limit. I recommend that you schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is an expert in breast reconstruction. Your plastic surgeon will review breast reconstruction options that are customized to you, based on your specific situation, your personal preferences and your expectations…
I had lipo a month ago. Everything else is healing well but my pelvic area. What is going on and do
Liposuction recovery
May 6, 2019
I understand your concern. At 1 month, it is too early to tell if you need a revision. It takes about 3 months to see the final results of liposuction. Gravity is most likely drawing the residual swelling down to your pelvic area, and it can cause the firmness you are describing. This should resolve on its own with time. The numbness should recover too but it could take several months.
You should definitely follow up with your plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns.
I hope this…
