I'm hoping Smart Lipo will help mother’s apron?
Liposuction question
Jul 12, 2019
Thank you for your question. SmartLipo will remove your fat, but your skin will probably still be loose. If you were my patient I would ask you the following questions to help clarify if Smartlipo might be suitable for you:1. Are you mostly concerned with how you look in clothes or how you look unclothed or both?If you want less fat and are mostly concerned with how you look and fit in your clothes then Smartlipo might be for you2. Are you ok with having loose skin like you already have?...
When having a tummy tuck, what exactly are you tested for in the LABS prior to surgery?
Lab tests before a tummy tuck
May 29, 2019
The testing you need both laboratory and otherwise before a procedure is determined largely by your age and your underlying medical conditions. For example, a healthy person under the age of 50 with no major medical problems may not need any testing. Also, women of child bearing age require testing to prove that they're not pregnant. In the end, it's up to your doctor to determine what testing is required.
Brachioplasty incision position. What would be the best option for me?
Brachioplasty question
Apr 4, 2019
Thank you for your question. It's a good one! I started out placing the bracioplasty incison along the mid inside of the arm. So if you were standing with you arms up and elbows bent at 90 degrees the scar would be in the middle of the arm (this is what you describe as the inside of the arm). Later on I tried the more posterior position or as you describe down the back of the arms. I was never fully satisfied with either of these incisions and have ended up using one that falls between the...
Worried undissolved stitches have become infected?
Breast lift question
Mar 29, 2019
Thank you for your question. It is impossible to know for certain without an in person examination, but it does look like you have deeper sutures that are being "spit out". Typically, the deeper layers of the breast and skin are closed with sutures that dissolve over time. Your body has a natural inflammatory response to the presence of these sutures. This is commonly what is going on when you see small amounts for redness and possible small suture abscesses following surgery. Often these...

Botox question
Mar 29, 2019
Thank you for your question. In the last picture it looks like your left lower lip is going upwards. It also look like the lines in your left upper lip are deeper. Personally, I wouldn't inject more Botox at this point. I might consider filler for the upper lip lines so that they don't appear so deep. Discuss your concerns with your injector. Good luck!
Can a patient with controlled diabetes and newly diagnosed Lupus be a candidate to correct liposuct
Liposuction question
Mar 13, 2019
Thank you for your question. The conditions you mentioned do not preclude you from being a candidate for liposuction. However, they must be well controlled and potential effects on surgery and healing should be accounted for. Your primary physician and surgeon should work together to determine your suitability for surgery. Good luck!
Is ripping/burning type of pain normal when sneezing after liposuction?
Liposuction question
Mar 5, 2019
Thank you for your question. I wouldn't say that "ripping/burning" sensation is the way most patients describe their discomfort following liposuction. However, I don't find it totally unusual that you may describe it that way especially when your abdomen is being tensed while sneezing. This should get significantly better in the next week or two. It's always best to discuss you symptoms with your surgeon. Good luck. 
I'm 7 weeks post tummy tuck. Will this go down?
Tummy tuck question
Mar 5, 2019
Thank you for your question. From what I can see in your pictures I do not think that your left side will settle to the extent that you'll be happy with it. It appears that you have an excess of skin and fat in that area. As others have mentioned you still have some settling and healing to do and things may still change. In situations like yours I typically will correct this in the office at 3 months. Good luck. 
I have pain and a bump seven months post liposuction, could it be fibrosis or seroma?
Bump post tummy tuck
Mar 5, 2019
Thank you for your question. It's truly impossible to answer your question without examining you. Did the bump just appear recently or has it been there for a while? It sounds like the CT scan has ruled out a significant seroma. When I hear "burning sensation" I consider that a nerve may be causing those symptoms. There are sensory nerves near your groin crease in the vicinity of your tummy tuck incision that may be affected. The best thing to do is to followup with your surgeon. Good luck,...
Am I too “skinny” for liposuction?
Liposuction question
Mar 3, 2019
Thank you for your question. From what I can see in your photos you do look like you have enough fat that you could benefit from liposuction of your love handles. Even the most fit patients (like you) have some fat in this area. See a board certified plastic surgeon for a consult. Good luck!

Botox question
Jan 30, 2019
Thank you for your question. I think it is unlikely that your botox migrated with you getting sick 10 days after you were injected. If you have concerns the best thing to do is to contact you injector and be seen for an in person evaluation. Good luck. 
Need help with sizing of implants for mommy makeover for Feb 5 surgery?
Breast augmentation question
Jan 18, 2019
Thank you for your question.  As you no doubt have learned, choosing a breast implant is a complex process.  It involves taking into account the patient's wishes and trying to align them with what is possible based on the patient's anatomy.  Your surgeon should have presented you with a range of implant sizes that they thought would help you best achieved your goals while providing you with a safe and stable result.  If you are still unsure about where you stand regarding your upc...
What can I do for my tummy tuck scar?
Tummy tuck scars
Jan 3, 2019
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you are doing and having most of the possible treatments to improve the appearance of your scars. I have found lasers like Fraxel, Picosure and VBeam to be very helpful in improving the appearance of scars. The best thing to do is to see someone that has all of these lasers available. They will be in the best position to help you. 
Is being tender to the touch a normal sensation at 11 days post-op?
Breast Aug Question
Nov 30, 2018
Thank you for your questions. What you describe can be normal following surgery. It is not unusual to have some soreness and swelling 11 days post op. It is always best to call your surgeon and discuss your questions and concerns with them. Good luck!
I developed a cough 5 days post op. Is that Bruise and bump normal to have after BA surgery or is t
Breast Aug Question
Nov 30, 2018
Thank you for your question. It's hard to comment based on your photo. Was the bump there before you started coughing? Is is firm? Did it get bigger? Is it painful?  Contact your surgeon. The best way to determine this is with a careful interview and exam. Good luck!
