Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I’m getting lipo & a BBL on a Monday and have my flight schedule home on Wednesday. It’s 2hr 45min.
It is risky!
Oct 19, 2015
It is risky! Only two days after a procedure like liposuction and fat injection, the swelling is important, it is still painful and the cathabolic changes inside your body are very active…besides the tiphycal changes in the blood mass …the red blood cells and the hemoglobin are still being affected two days later .
What type of implants would give me the best upper pole fullness? Surgeon recommends anatomic saline
Round silicone implants plus mastopexy
Jul 24, 2015
You have a mild ptosis of the breast , so an implant alone is not going to give you the upper pole fullness , you are looking for,..my recomendation is to have high profile silicone gel round implants, combined with a breast lift to improve the breast ptosis, cutting the sagging skin on in the inferior pole.
When can a person take a jacuzzi bath or submerge into water after tummy tuck/lipo and muscle repair
Bath after surgery.
May 17, 2015
I do usually recomend normal bath from 15 to 20 days after surgery,…giving the advice to do the first “showers” with some “sterilized” water, like the one in the drinking water jugs. But submerge into the jacuzzi will be better tomdomit after the 6th week post op.Dr. Carrasco
I had liposuction a year ago, and would now like a BBL. Do I have enough fat?
Enough fat?
Mar 25, 2015
Following your photos , you have a modest amount of fat in the back, where a liposuction can be made and get some fat , but not enough to get a nice result in the BBL, besides that the abdomen area doesnt look that we can harvest a considerable amount of fat for the procedure, comsidering that only one year after your liposuction will make the suction more difficult in that area.
Can a Brazilian Butt Lift and Tummy Tuck be preformed at the same surgery?
It is better to do brazilian butt lift as unique procedure.
Mar 18, 2015
Brazillian butt lift consists of transfer the fat tissue that is gotten out of your own body through a liposuction of the back, the waist and sometimes the abdomen too. A part of this transfered fat is going to be absorbed as a natural process( up to 40 to 50 porcent of it, one and a half to two months later is absorbed). This absortion is very less when the patient can be lying down on the bed on this stomach, kso that way, less pressure is done over the buttocks area, and the butt volume…
Do I need a lift?
You dont need the lift, but the right breast implant!
Mar 17, 2015
Considering the last picture , you desire a natural look of your breast, and as you dont mind having heavy breast in the botton area, i can avoid the incision of the lift and have an adequate breast implant to be positioned above the pectoralis muscle, that way i can stretch the skin , have fullness of the upper pole and besides achieve a natural lift appareance.
