I'm interested in a mommy makeover. What should I do for my breast, stomach, and butt?
I'm interested in a mommy makeover.
Nov 25, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. You are starting at a great place and can have a fantastic result. I would recommend seeing a BC plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and view his/her before and after photos. Depending on how much upper pole fullness you desire, a combination of a breast lift +/- small implant or fat grafting will get you there. Liposuction of your abdomen/flanks/back will give you a nice result as well. Best wishes!

Could I have a reasonable outcome If we explant, do a revision mastopexy and fat grafting?
Nov 23, 2019
In general, it is possible to have a breast lift and fat grafting at the time of implant removal. Unless there is something wrong with the capsule, total capsulectomy is not necessary. Make sure your surgeon is a board certified plastic surgeon and is comfortable with the procedure. Best wishes!
I would like to remove my 15 year old implants, would and explant without a lift be possible?
I would like to remove my 15 year old implants, would and explant without a lift be possible?
Nov 23, 2019
Thank you for your question and the photos. If you have saline implants, you can have your plastic surgeon deflate them prior to surgery so you can see what volume will be left. It is possible to remove the implants and do a lift at the same time. The entire capsule can be removed, but it is often not necessary. Please see a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss your options. Best of luck!
Can I still get a breast lift possibly with augmentation with large areolas?
Can I still get a breast lift possibly with augmentation with large areolas?
Nov 22, 2019
Yes, you can still get a breast lift, which will also reduce the size of your areolas. Your breast tissue will be repositioned to a more optimal location on your chest. This can be done with minimal tissue besides skin being removed. I would recommend then having implants placed at a second stage if you wish to have more volume. Best of luck!
Can I just get a breast lift? I don't want the sagging and the separation.
Breast lift
Nov 22, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. Yes a breast will reposition your breast mound in a better location on your chest wall, as well as lift your nipple position and reduce the size. Minimal volume needs to be removed, just skin and whatever is needed for optimal symmetry. Please meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best of luck.
What should I have done for more upper fullness in my breasts?
Upper pole fullness
Nov 22, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. The answer depends on how much upper pole fullness you want. Certainly a breast lift will give you better nipple and breast mound position with a moderate increase in upper pole fullness. This may be all that you desire. Fat grafting with the breastlift can also add a mild/moderate amount of fullness when done correctly. If you desire a significant increase in upper pole volume, an implant may be necessary. If you have more pregnancies, your...
Is it feasible to expect an improvement in nipple placement? My right nipple has been a problem.
Breast revision
Nov 21, 2019
Thank you for your question and photo. Yes, I believe a revision of your breast lift with improve the symmetry of both your breasts and the nipple-areolar complex. Best of luck.
What are my options for bad rippling after pre-pec surgery and can I go smaller?
What are my options for bad rippling after pre-pec surgery and can I go smaller? (Photos)
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for the question and photos. I am sorry you are unhappy with your reconstruction at this point. Unfortunately, it is impossible to answer without an in person examination and detailed review of your history. Many times it is possible to downsize the implant and fat graft the soft tissue envelope, but there are limitations to both. I encourage you to discuss your goals and options with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck.

Bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction involving latissimus flap and implants? What size/brand of implant do you recommend?
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for the question. Unfortunately, without photos or a detailed physical exam, it is impossible to give any opinion on the proper implant to choose. That is a complex decision that your surgeon will guide you on as it is specific for your body habitus and dimensions, tissue available, and ultimate goals of the reconstruction. I encourage you to discuss these points with your surgeon and together you will select the best implant for you. In general, Allergan SCX implants...
What results do you get with a LD/flap procedure without putting implants in?
What results do you get with a LD/flap procedure without putting implants in?
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for the question. The LD flap can vary considerably in size based on technique and the patient's body habitus. In thinner patients, it is more often necessary to add an implant for volume and projection. In others, it can sometimes it can provide sufficient volume to reach the desired size, especially when coupled with fat grafting. This may require more than one procedure, depending on the anatomy and goals of the patient.

How do I get the same shape, look, feel as my anatomical implants if they're replaced w/ Allergan Inspira cohesive round?
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for your question. I would encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with both shaped and round implant based reconstruction. A detailed examination and discussion will help you make the best decision on your revision surgery.
One question I have is what is prompting you to change your implants at this time if you want to keep the same size/style? If your implant has rotated, or moved in position, I probably...

How long do I have to wait to get a last breast revisions?
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. It sounds like you have a capsular contracture on the right side. This will make if feel firmer and elevated. A trial of Singulair and massage may help to soften the capsule. If there is no response, then I would proceed with a revision. You can certainly change from an implant-based reconstruction to an autologous reconstruction (using your own tissue). There are multiple ways to use your own tissue (flaps/fat grafting) and a detailed examination and...
Fat Transfer? Worth it? Had Double mastectomy with reconstruction. Interested in adding fat to the top of
Fat Transfer? Worth it? Had Double mastectomy with reconstruction.
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. Fat grafting will help thicken the soft tissue envelope over your implants and give a more 'natural' transition between the chest wall and upper pole of the breast. This can help reduce or eliminate any rippling that may be seen from the implant, and also provide more insulation and a softer feel. The surgery is usually a short (~1 hour) outpatient procedure with little down time. If you are...

Nervous about switching from under to over the pec/reconstruction but the animation is terrible
Oct 9, 2019
Thank you for your question and photos. It is difficult to answer some of these questions without a detailed examination with measurements. In general, switching from sub-pec to pre-pec position of the implant in reconstruction cases will eliminate the animation deformity. It could also, however, worsen your rippling as the implant will no longer have muscle coverage in the upper pole. Fat grafting is adjunct that will help with this, but may not eliminate it entirely, particularly if you...

I have no breast tissue due to a double mastectomy. I have tissue expanders that fill to 350cc. What size should I expect to be?
Oct 9, 2019
It is difficult to say what cup size you will be with the final implant as based on the tissue expander size. Your body habitus, height/weight, implant selection, and adjuvant procedures (i.e. fat grafting), are factors to consider when discussing your goals with your surgeon. I encourage you to have detailed discussions with your surgeon and even show photos of your desired size and 'look'. Hope this helps!
