Doctor's answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
What do you recommend to improve my tummy and give me larger breasts?
A Mommy Makeover would benefit you
Sep 6, 2023
I would recommend a tummy tuck to help with sagging skin. If you have abdominal muscle separation, a tummy tuck can also repair that. For the breasts, implants would help with increasing their size. You may also want to consider a breast lift if you can hold a pencil under your breasts.
How long after getting a tummy tuck do the drainage come out?
Drains are in for 10-14 days. You can return to work in as little as a week.
Jul 21, 2023
Drains typically come out 10-14 days post-op. Depending on your occupation, light-duty work is acceptable usually a week or so after surgery. Just be sure there is no lifting, tugging or pulling anything over 10 pounds. Most patients stop taking pain meds 5-7 days after surgery. All restrictions are released at 6 weeks post-op.
5'6, 138lbs & diastasis recti - is a full tummy tuck still the best option?
There are different styles of tummy tucks depending on the skin laxity present.
Jul 13, 2023
If there is hanging skin and muscle laxity below the waistline then the best procedure is a tummy tuck. Most women who have had twins typically have laxity in the muscle or diastasis recti that can remain, even after proper diet and exercise. There are different styles of tummy tucks depending on the skin laxity present. It is best to visit a board-certified plastic surgeon and see which procedure will adequately address your concerns.
Gained 50 lbs with first pregnancy - Tummy tuck or Liposuction 360?
Tummy Tuck should be performed once you are finished having children. Lipo360 can be done now.
Jul 13, 2023
The answer to this question depends on your goals at the end of your recovery. In the photos you presented there is excess fat (lipodystrophy) of the abdomen and hips that can be sculpted with liposuction of the abdomen, hips and back (lipo 360). If you add an energy source such as Renuvion or Bodytite to the procedure you will get some skin retraction with the liposuction alone.

I can’t completely tell from the photo because the pants are covering the lower waistline but if you have h...

Severe diastasis recti tummy. Will this be fixed if I get a tummy tuck?
Yes, your diastasis recti will be corrected during your tummy tuck
Jul 13, 2023
The diastasis recti is fixed during the tummy tuck or abdominoplasty. This is fixed by tightening (aka plicating) the rectus muscles back together. This is the “internal” part of a tummy tuck that allows for a flatter midsection. After the muscle is tightened the skin is tightened as well. As far as liposuction, you need to ask your board-certified plastic surgeon if they perform liposuction at the same time as their tummy tuck. Some surgeons do not. I love performing liposuction at ...
Is it normal to still have a drain in your body 5 weeks post body lift surgery?
Drians after a bodylift
Sep 6, 2018
Thank you for your question. Everyone has a different amount of time after a bodylift that  they will require to have their drains remain. At 5 weeks, with 30mls of output, that is the color and consistency that you described is not unheard of. There is a certain amount of fluid that the body produces naturally and can ultimately resorb a certain amount of fluid with no issues. If you were my patient I would go ahead and remove this final drain bc the 30mls that you are producing could be t...
4 months post breast implant revision, my nipple is constantly red, what is causing this? How do I fix it
Scar Recovery
Aug 17, 2018
Hello. Thanks for the question.  Scars can be pink and/or purple for the first year after surgery, but you have redness. It appears that the area is irritated and inflamed. It is a good idea to see your surgeon and/or a dermatologist for potential steroid, creams, or medication to calm the redness down and speed up your recovery. It is best to avoid the sun or exposure for 1 year. The sutures can take up to 6 months to dissolve, but massage can help. Hope this helps. Good luck :)
My areolas are both uneven. Will that affect my breast lift results ?
areola
Aug 9, 2018
Thanks for your question.  The goal is for better symmetry of size, shape and position of areolas after your procedure and this should be discussed at your consultation appointment.  Your overall satisfaction with results can be improved, if your surgeon understands your expectations.  The larger areola can be reduced on the left breast. Your surgeon (day of surgery) will use a marking pen to design your breast in preparation for your Mastopexy.  Being asymmetrical can be a limiting f...
My acne scars (especially ice pick on nasal area) do not seem to improve. Please advise!
Best treatment for acne scars
Aug 2, 2018
Thank you for your question! I have found that our office has great results with microneedling. This procedure helps to stimulate collagen while creating a control wound to help the rebuild of past acne scarring. We also recommend using a growth factor while having this procedure done. We recommend at least a series of 3 scheduled 4-6 weeks apart, some patients might need another package it just depends on the results. These results are not instant but see vast improvement after 3-4 months...
Will laser work for large pores?
Laser for large pores
Aug 2, 2018
Thank you for your questions! I recommend the spectra laser Hollywood peel with carbon and heat setting for all of my oily patients that struggle with large pores. The first pass we do is with heat over the carbon that helps to open the pores. The next couple of passes are with a 1064 setting and allows the carbon to pop any dirt, debris, dead skin cells, and blackheads to be removed from the pores without extractions. This laser helps to keep pores clean without any downtime. I recommend...
I want a BBL. I have 4 children and am not happy with my body. What will I need to do to get one done, lo
BBL
Jun 28, 2018
Hello. Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, you would be an excellent candidate for a BBL. Aggressive liposuction to your back and hips, with a transfer to your buttocks could create a sculpted shape. If you are concerned about your abdomen, a tummy tuck can help to correct the damage after pregnancies to the muscle and skin. A consult with a surgeon would help confirm if you are surgical candidate. Hope this helps. Have a great day.
BA post-op day 2 periareolar. Should I be doing some kind of upper pole banding?
upper pole
Jun 28, 2018
Thanks for your question. Banding can benefit a patient when implant position is high but banding is not always necessary. Postoperative massages may be something recommended by your surgeon at one of your follow up appointments. I would discuss your concern about implant position with your surgeon and not begin any new treatments (massage or banding) until your surgeon sees you.
Am I a good candidate for breast lift and nipple correction? I’m happy with my size. Not sure if I want i
areola reduction
Jun 26, 2018
Thanks for your question. A mastopexy revision can improve the scars. An implant can provide fullness at the top of the breast. If your goal is more fullness at the top of your breast, seriously consider choosing an implant.
What are your favorite ways to reduce fine lines under eyes for mid thirties? Peels? Laser? Something els
Ways to reduce fine lines and wrinkles in your 30's
Jun 21, 2018
Thank you for your question. This is a question I hear everyday in our office. Chemical peels, MicroNeedling and Lasers can help with fine lines and wrinkles. My favorite modality for under the eyes specifically is MicroNeedling because you can get within 2mm of the lower eyelid. Peels and Lasers have to stay around the orbital rim.
Itchy red bumps after Pico Genesis - how long will it last, it looks like I have leprosy.
PicoGenesis reaction
Jun 21, 2018
Thank you for your question and picture. It is very common to have a histamine reaction with PicoGenesis. This should subside within 24-48 hours. You can take a Benedryl to lessen the effects as well as pre-treating before your next appointment to help the reaction as well.
