Best procedure after weight loss.
Dec 16, 2021
Hello newwbodyy777, I hope you are doing excellent. One thing you have to take in consideration before choosing the correct surgery for you is that your main problem is that skin have already been expanded, so your skin quiality is poor.

Belly Button Scar.
Dec 15, 2021
Hello Cool8016, I hope you are doing excellent. Well, your belly button looks good, but the scar widened, this is something common and mainly what you need to do is get in contact with you PS, and look for his opinion toward an belly button scar revision.

Wanted a tummy tuck but told that I would qualify for J-plasma?
Extra Skin = Tummy Tuck.
Dec 15, 2021
Hello taurzgirl, I hope you are doing excellent. In a very simple manner to explain, If there extra skin on your abdomen you need to make an skin resection or Tummy Tuck. Nowadays there is no technology that can substitute skin resection. Also, skin retraction technologies have their limitations and those limitations depend mainly on your skin quality. In your particular case, I see a very little opportunity of success to treat your abdomen in a proper manner just by doing liposuction and…

What does a Tummy tuck entail?
Dec 14, 2021
Hello Marie21, I hope you are doing excellent. Well for sure, after four pregnancies, you are a great candidate for a Tummy Tuck. In my experience and practice, I always combine Tummy Tuck ( resection of the extra skin of the lower part of your abdomen, muscle repair and creating a bellybutton), with liposuction of upper back, lower back, flanks and waist and Brazilian buttlift. So Love handles are also treated with liposuction. And usually Mommy Makeover in my practice, has to be just a…
is it normal to have swelling 6 months after tummy tuck and hernia repair?
Swelling after surgery.
Dec 14, 2021
Hello lilybeth2133, I hope you are doing excellent. In any aesthetic surgical procedure swelling is normal. There is no exact date at which you have to be completely unswollen, it depends on many factors that have to do with surgery and mainly with you and your after surgery care. Most of the patients have certain degree of swelling at the sixth month after surgery. Also, there are several things as medications, aparatology or manual massages that you can use at this point. Of course, it is…
How long after a breast lift with implants can you have a tummy tuck?
Time between one aesthetic surgery and another.
Dec 11, 2021
Hello Crose1091, I hope you are doing excellent. Actually the suggested time to have another surgery, should consider:*If the surgery performed previuosly is in the same anatomic region. *If previos surgery has completely healed (all wounds closed and no edema). *If you are in the best conditions to have another surgery ( no anemia, best nutritional conditions). Mostly all patients are ready after 3 to 6 months after the first surgery. I hope this information can help you.
Can you take Benadryl after getting a tummy tuck, Lipo 360, and BBL?
Benadryl or Diphenhydramine after surgery.
Dec 11, 2021
Hello Flossg01, I hope you are doing excellent. The most important fact to take in consideration to answer your question is your plastic surgeon indication. This kind of medications, usually used to release allergy simptoms, have minimal interactions with some of medications prescribed after surgery, but can have interactions. Also, if you have any physical condition, you should check cautions and contraindications for this medicine.
