What can I do to fix my weirdly shaped lips?
Lip Augmentation
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your questions and your photo. Before undergoing any surgery, you should consider and have a trial of some of the various HA products used for lip augmentation/filler. The Juvederm/Restylane families both have several long lasting products which may help provide you the correction you are looking for. Additionally, fat transfer may another option. Hope this helps.

Ruptured implant leaked to lymph nodes
Breast Implant rupture
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post and very sorry to hear of your problems. The decision to remove and/or replace breast implants can be a difficult and personal one, as there are often several factors to consider. Since you are having symptoms, you should look to have your ruptured implants removed soon as this should hopefully help with relief of your symptoms. Breast implants do not last forever, as they are not lifetime devices, and they rupture for a wide variety of reasons. Since you are having...
Are there tests that can detect silicone in the body after removal?
BII and silicone
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post and questions. The decision to remove and/or replace breast implants can be a difficult and personal one, as there are often several factors to consider. An MRI is the best test to detect a gel rupture, and it is about 95% accurate, but it would likely not find or locate "flecks shedding" off an implant. Breast implants do not last forever, as they are not lifetime devices. If you are having symptoms such as pain, swelling, redness, firmness or other symptoms, be sure...

Breast implant removal at 3 months after getting implants. Do I need to have the capsule remove
Breast Implant Removal
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post. The scar or capsule that forms around implant generally should be removed as much as possible and depends on individual circumstances. The amount of original breast tissue removed with ex-plantation, and removal of capsules should be minimal as well. If a large amount of this thick scar capsule is left behind from implant removal (as I have seen from other patients referred to me) a seroma forms in the old breast implant pocket. After three months, the amount of...
How are silicone implants ruptures detected?
Possible Ruptured implants
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post and story. The decision to remove and/or replace breast implants can be a difficult one, as there are often several factors to consider. An MRI is the best test to detect a gel rupture, and it is about 95% accurate. An Ultrasound may provide additional information. Breast implants do not last forever, as they are not lifetime devices. If you are having symptoms such as pain, swelling, redness, firmness or other symptoms, be sure to see a Board Certified Plastic...
How much would it cost to get a 4cmx3m lipoma removed?
Forehead/Scalp Lipoma
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post and photos. Lipoma removal is relatively painless and most can be removed with local anesthesia in the office with return to work that day. The cost of surgical removal will vary from region to region, and a good estimate can be found on Real-self which states the average cost is around $1600 probably for smaller, non complicated/deep ones. Imaging may be useful in some cases help with location and evaluation of the characteristics of the mass as well. It is best to...
What to expect with costs (willing to pay OOP), procedure, turnaround from thigh lipoma removal
Lipoma/mass removal
Nov 1, 2023
Thank you for your post. Lipoma removal is relatively painless and most can be removed with local anesthesia in the office with return to work that day. Depending on the location and size, some time off from marathon training may be best so that your body can heal appropriately. I do not charge for followup appointments, and sometimes these can be done by Zoom call. The cost of surgical removal will vary from region to region, and a good estimate can be found on Real-self which states the...
Why does one implant look clear?
Breast Implant removal
May 9, 2023
Hi, and Happy Tuesday, and thank you for your question and photos. It looks like the implants were saline and now are deflated (for one reason or another). The RIGHT side (volume and implant manufacturer unknown) appears more "cloudy" as it was likely ruptured for awhile while inside the breast implant pocket, and likely had some bacterial contamination resulting in biofilm or even purulent fluid (pus) formation resulting in a thicker capsule or right sided contracture within it whereas the...
Am I a candidate for a donut / benelli lift? How much of a lift can be achieved with this techn
Donut Mastopexy
Jan 12, 2023
Thank you for you questions and photos. There are many great answers below, and I agree a "donut" mastopexy would lift (and reduce the circumference) the areola 1-2cm, but often times will flatten the breast with the scars widening over time. A "lollipop" or vertical mastopexy would lift the breast tissue more substantially (despite the vertical scar) and could be done with/without implants to restore upper pole volume. Be sure to see and experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for the...

Breast Augmentation after breast reduction
Jan 12, 2023
Thank you for your questions, photos and post. Be sure to find an experienced ASPS Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can examine you and take the time to answer any and all questions you may have. You should obtain you previous operative notes and records for a thorough review as well. Look for the ASPS Board Certified symbol of excellence when researching potential surgeons. The cost will vary depending on geography and fees for the facility, anesthesia and surgeon. With an in-person...

To get a lift with explant? Not sure what to expect?
Explant and lift or not to lift
Jan 12, 2023
Thank you for your questions and post. Photos and an in-person and examination with discussion are always helpful for both the PS and the patient. The decision to remove your breast implants is a personal one. Often times, a breast lift can be done immediately after the implants have been removed lift, but the situation has to be right to minimize the risk for adverse complications. Alternatively, the breast lift can be done (at a second operation) later down the road (~6 months) once the...
Is 210cc too small? 11 bwd, 5'7", 122lbs, 32a/aa
BA and cup size
Jan 12, 2023
Hello and thank you for your questions and post. Be sure you see an experienced, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for the best outcome and results. Generally, I have found that for each 125-150cc of implant volume, you would go up a size, but each patient is different and there are several factors to consider some of which you mentioned. Consultations are an important time to ask questions, show photos of your desired result, communicate this with your surgeon, learn about the procedure and...
