Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Will under eye fillers help with these dark circles and fine lines?
Fillers
Nov 19, 2018
Thank you for your question Texasgirl18.
Based on your pictures you appear to be a good candidate for hyaluronic acid injections into your tear trough area. I have been able to achieve excellent results utilizing Restylane in this area. Best of luck!
Is there a treatment for the fat in the area above my bra behind the armpit?
Liposuction
Nov 19, 2018
Thank you for your question Pinkvock.
Based on your pictures you are a good candidate for tumescent liposuction of the back. I have been able to achieve excellent results utilizing VASER hi definition liposuction in this area. Best of luck!
I am a 22 year old mother of two children. Are my breasts tubular?
You do not have tuberous breasts
Nov 19, 2018
Thank you for your question Dasia12345.
From your pictures it appears that you do not have tuberous breasts. If you are done having children I would recommend a mastopexy or breast lift with or without an implant. Best of luck!
What can be done about my weak jawline?
Surgical or Non Surgical
Sep 20, 2018
Thank you mcbradyy for your question. It depends on whether you are looking for surgical or non surgical options. Non surgical options are Kybella injections to dissolve the fat under your chin and Radiesse injections to augment your jawline. Surgical options include submental liposuction, chin implant, and a sliding genioplasty. Best of luck!
it is better to wait until done having children for breast augmentation?
Breast Augmentation
Sep 20, 2018
Thank you for your question lynne1992. If you are planning to have children within the next year I would recommend waiting until after you are done having children if not, it is best to do them now. A breast augmentation typically does not interfere with breastfeeding or make it uncomfortable. Best of luck!
How much weight should I lose before having a tummy tuck?
Losing weight before surgery
Sep 20, 2018
Thank you for your question Janda7. I encourage my patients to make diet and exercise a daily part of their life style. It is best for you to have surgery at a stable weight for yourself to achieve the best result. If you lose weight specifically for a surgery and your not accustomed to dieting and exercising regularly you may gain the weight back after the surgery compromising your aesthetic result.
I’m looking to get a breast reduction & lift. Where & how should I start?
Breast reduction and breast lift surgery
Jul 18, 2018
Thank you for your question. Start by searching for board certified plastic surgeons in your area. Once you have found some that you like, make an appointment for a consultation to learn more about the procedure. The surgeon can go over all of the risks, benefits, and alternatives of the procedure with you and address any of the concerns that you may have. Best of luck!
Would something like filler or another treatment help with these wrinkles under my 26 year old
Under eye wrinkles
Jul 18, 2018
It is hard to tell from your picture, however it appears you may be a good candidate for Restylane injections into this area. It does not appear that you would require more than one syringe.

Dr. Racanelli
Tumescent Lipo vs tummy tuck?
Tummy tuck
Jun 25, 2018
Thank you for your question cyndins0705. Realistic expectations are critical in plastic surgery to ensure patient satisfaction after a procedure. In context of a woman who has had 4 pregnancies, liposuction alone can never deliver the same results as a tummy tuck. During pregnancy the skin stretches and loses its elasticity and the muscles typically separate. During a tummy tuck excess skin is removed and lax muscles are tightened. Liposuction alone cannot correct for these...
Can't do my lift without adding an implant? They want to do a breast lift and then add an impla
Breat lift without implant
Jun 25, 2018
Thank you for your question dreamprocedure7. From your photos, it appears that you have sufficient volume to get a nice result from a lift alone (without an implant). I see no indication from your photographs that you need an implant. Best of luck.
Is it safe to have a tummy tuck 4 years after a umbilical hernia repair surgery?
Tummy tuck after umbilical hernia repair
Jun 25, 2018
Thank you for your question rubygirl88. Yes, it would be safe for you to get a tummy tuck after an umbilical hernia repair. Often times I work simultaneously with a general surgeon to perform a tummy tuck at the same time of an umbilical hernia repair. Best of luck.
Looking to reduce nasolabial folds in thin face. Whats the approximate amount/syringes it looks
The more you inject the more you can expect
Jun 22, 2018
The amount of correction that each patient receives per syringe can vary widely. Based on your photos, you should be able to get a good correction with 1-2 syringes of any of the hyaluronic acid fillers. Most of the hyaluronic acid fillers are pre filled at 1 cc of product per syringe. If you are only interested in one syringe, you may want to consider Radiesse as the syringe is larger and contains 1.5 cc of product. The more product you inject into an area the more you can expect. Best...
Am I a tummy tuck candidate or liposuction candidate?
Lipsuction
Jun 6, 2018
Thank you for your question. From your pictures, it appears that you are a good candidate for liposuction. Liposuction, in conjunction with diet and exercise, can provide excellent results. I have had excellent results utilizing tumescent liposuction with VASER in patients with your similar presentation.
What procedure should I do for excess skin?
Procedure for excess skin removal
May 21, 2018
Thank
you for your question Kiaraaax.
The
first question you need to consider is if you are done having children? If so,
the best procedure would be a traditional tummy tuck. If you are not done
having children, the best thing to do would be to wait until after you are done
having children completely as getting pregnant may ruin your tummy tuck. As you
have learned, laser lipo and other non invasive procedures will not help with
getting rid of your excess skin.
Regards,
Dr.
Racanelli
For benign flat facial moles, laser/burn/electric or shave method?
Shave method
May 2, 2018
Great question Hepburn
In my opinion, the shave method leaves less of a scar as there is no thermal injury to the skin. The other modalities you’ve mentioned all involve thermal injury which can result in suboptimal scarring.
