How long should I wait after having a baby and breastfeeding before getting a labiaplas
Breastfeeding and surgery
Nov 6, 2018
Thanks for your question.
It would definitely be wise to wait until you have finished breastfeeding for any surgery, especially that related to the labia. The hormones in your system when you are breastfeeding will affect the labia and vaginal secretions. It is best to wait for nature to heal the perineum after childbirth as much as possible before considering surgery.
One thing to consider is that anaesthetics and medications (ie antibiotics) that are given to you during surgery…
Can you offer any guidance on how to repair a medial thigh lift that has gone wrong? (P
Thigh lift complications
Nov 6, 2018
Thank you for your question. I am sorry that you have had to go through a complication like this.
It appears that too much skin has been removed, resulting in the pulling of the remaining skin. I am not sure why skin grafting is not an option for you, as this may well be required. Multiple flaps may help with z-plasties. Tissue expansion on the inner thighs could be a possibility, although it would certainly be difficult to put up with while expansion is proceeding, and depending on…
Is it possible to make my nose more aesthetically pleasing after MOHS surgery?
MOHS Nose
Nov 6, 2018
Given that it is 3 years post MOHS surgery, the scar has had plenty of time to settle adequately. The only way to correct the ‘bump’ would be to have a different flap used to remove the pale area and the indentation. It looks like the original flap may have only partly survived, hence the depressed and pale area. It is also possible to have laser to reduce the redness, the pale area could also be tattooed with skin colour.
I would strongly advise against filler under the scar on the nose,…
Is it usual practice for a surgeon to use dissolvable sutures in the ear after otoplast
Dissolving Sutures
Aug 27, 2018
It is unusual for dissolving sutures to take 9 months to dissolve. For the otoplasty procedures that I perform, I use dissolving sutures in the cartilage, which is deep beneath the skin, and do not show on the surface. These should be dissolved by 6 months. In the skin behind the ear, where the incision has been made, I use sutures that are removed by 2 weeks post-op.
Some surgeons use dissolving sutures in the skin and these show on the surface and…
