Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Should I consider excising my hypertrophic chest scar?
Keloid Excision Followed by SRT (Superficial Radiation Therapy)
Oct 20, 2023
At HK Dermatology, we have two possible treatments for keloids and hypertrophic scars. Surgical scar excision followed by 2-3 days of superficial radiation therapy (beginning the next day) boasts a 95% cure rate. For smaller scars, or scars that are not appropriate for excision followed by SRT, we have a novel approach to Kenalog injections that is pain free and very successful.

We are located in Southern California, but there are dermatology centers scattered across the country that can...

What can I do to minimize the appearance of the line above my upper lip?
Simply add a soft filler to the area
Aug 1, 2023
This is a very easy fix by adding a soft filler or blended filler to the area with the line/depression.
How can I get rid of my scars on my stomach?
Two Keloid Treatment Options
Jul 11, 2023
Two options to treat your keloids.
Less Invasive - a generous amount of dilute local anesthetic that constricts blood flow in the area, followed by painless intralesional injections of Kenalog is very effective. The dilute local anesthetic causes vasoconstriction, allowing the Kenalog to absorb into the keloidal tissue instead of being more quickly absorbed into the blood stream. This procedure is less expensive and less traumatic than excising the keloid.

Excision with SRT - Excision...

SculpSure Interval Does Not Affect Results
Oct 29, 2019
We have performed hundreds of SculpSure treatments and have found that the interval does not effect the ultimate outcome. Some patients can tolerate treatments as close together as 2 weeks, while others opt to wait a number of months. Treatments performed closer together will yield faster results, but not necessarily better results.  In our experience, patients that see good results after one treatment respond well to additional treatments, regardless of the treatment interval. A small nu...
Will liposuction get rid of my buffalo hump?
Tumescent Liposuction for Buffalo Hump
Apr 10, 2019
I have successfully treated many patients presenting with a Buffalo Hump with liposuction by tumescent local anesthesia and micro-cannulas. It is possible for this area to have a more fibrous fat that can be very difficult to remove but usually with micro-cannulas the area is fairly easy to treat.With the Klein Tumescent Liposuction, the patient is completely awake while dilute local anesthesia is gently injected. The area is suctioned with micro-cannulas, and most patients are back to work ...
I'm 9 months post tummy tuck and 19 days post op abdominal liposuction. Did I mess up my results?
Normal Post Liposuction Inflammation
Apr 10, 2019
After abdominal liposuction, many patients experience a period of “lumpiness”. During the initial 6-8 weeks, you may “feel” firm inflammatory nodules, and by the end of the day, you can actually see them. This usually resolves within the first couple months, but can take 4-6 months for some patients. As long as the abdomen feels firm, you are experiencing postoperative inflammation and cannot truely evaluate your results. It will improve.

Treatment of Skin Cancer of the Legs
Mar 11, 2019
It is possible you may be a candidate for SRT - superficial radiation therapy, by Sensus. This is a non-invasive treatment. Search  your area to find a dermatologist that offers this device to determine if you are a candidate.
What can I do to remove fat from under my breast that sit on my ribs. I was thinking about lipo? (
Liposuction of the Upper Rib Area
Mar 11, 2019
Tumescent Liposuction using micro-cannulas is an excellent option for the fat over the upper rib area. This fat can be fibrous in nature, making it difficult to treat with larger cannulas. Micro-cannulas pass easily through fibrous fat without the need for laser devices which can increase the risk of complications. Tumescent Liposuction is done completely under local anesthesia, with the use of a mild oral sedative, making it a very safe procedure. Most patients treat the entire abdomen...
Will lipo of saddlebags and abdomen leave saggy, lumpy skin?
Skin Smoothness after Liposuction
Mar 11, 2019
Photographically, your skin elasticity looks to be good and you are an excellent candidate for tumescent liposuction using micro-cannulas. This technique offers the smoothest results and lowest complication rate. Introducing "skin tightening" devices can increase the risk of complications unnecessarily. While skin that is already crepey will remain so, once the fat is removed from the abdomen and the skin is "unweighted", we usually see a dramatic reduction in the panis (fatty skin that hang...
Am I a good candidate for liposuction of the abdomen? My surgeon says that my stomach is too loose
Tumescent Liposuction
Mar 8, 2019
I have performed thousands of tumescent liposuction cases to the abdomen with excellent skin retraction without the need for laser or tummy tuck, both of which have additional risks of complications. A physical exam would certainly be necessary to adequately assess your skin, but in in examining your photos, it would appear that you are an excellent candidate for tumescent liposuction. When choosing your surgeon, choose a surgeon with the lowest complication rate and a good gallery of befor...
Is dizziness, blurred vision, weakness, cold sweats, and feeling faint normal when receiving Juved
Dizzy, Faint and Nauseous with Injections
Mar 8, 2019
I believe it is very likely you were experiencing a vasovagal reaction. A vasovagal reaction occurs when you faint because your body overreacts to certain triggers, such as the sight of blood or extreme emotional distress. The trigger causes your heart rate and blood pressure to drop suddenly, which reduces the blood flow to the brain. Depending upon the severity, you may completely lose consciousness and faint, or if less severe, feel dizzy and nauseous.  
This can be treated or pr...
Liposuction under local anesthesia, is this an option?
Tumescent Liposuction Safest Option
May 5, 2017
Tumescent Liposuction without general anesthesia or IV sedation is the safest option. True tumescent liposuction involves injection of large volumes (1-2 liters per area, up to 4-5 liters in a large abdomen) of dilute local anesthetic solution into the targeted area, while the patient is awake. The patient may receive an oral sedative to take the edge off their nerves, but IV or IM sedation is not usually given.  Additionally, in true tumescent liposuction, multiple very small 1-2 mm adits (...
I'm a 37 year old female, 5'8", 168 lbs. Sculpsure or Liposuction?
Sculpsure vs Liposuction vs Kybella
May 5, 2017
While the submental chin (fat pad directly under the chin) can respond well to Kybella, it usually requires at least two treatments. If your fat pad extends toward the sides of your neck, or jowl area, liposuction may be the better choice. Kybella is not recommended near the jowl area. Tumescent Liposuction is a relatively short procedure and usually has very little bruising or down time, and is customized to follow the shape of your fat pad. The developers of Sculpsure are working on a app...
What is the average amount taken out with Tumescent Lipo at the bra roll?
"Average" Amount of Fat Removal
Apr 17, 2017
Since women come is all shapes and sizes, there is no "average" amount of fat that is removed from the bra strap area. It really depends not only on your height and weight, but also on your fat distribution. Some patients carry most of their weight in the outer thighs, while others have more in the hips, waist and bra strap area.
Will I get dramatic results from just doing liposuction on the flanks (love handles) and not areas
Liposuction of the Female Flank Bra Area
Apr 17, 2017
You are an excellent candidate for liposuction of the hips and waist. Photographically, it does not appear that you have much fat near the bra strap, but this is best assessed with a "pinch" test. Most women find that the bra strap area does develop excess fat with weight gain, with advanced age and with menopause, even after having liposuction on that area. The bra strap area is an area that is difficult to treat twice with liposuction, as the fat tends to be fibrous and a second li...
