Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Uneven eyelids?
Uneven eyelids
Nov 2, 2017
Thanks for your question. By your photo there does not appear to be any ptosis. The right side seems to have more tissue weighing down the lids. A blepharoplasty on both sides should even this out.
Best of luck.
I’m 31 and am conscious of excess eyelid skin/droopy brows.How can I look less tired – is surgery ne
Droopy Eyelids
Nov 2, 2017
Thanks for your question. Your picture shows a number of things that would have a noninvasive option. The left brow sits slightly lower than the right and is a little flatter. There are also a number of “smile lines” present. Some Botox beneath the brow and in the smile lines would address these. A topical hyaluronic acid would help with some of the lower eyelid crepiness. The excess of the upper eyelids is minimal but the lash line on the left is lower…
Are my lips over done? How long does Juvederm XC last in the lips until they go down?
Lips overdone
Oct 27, 2017
Thanks for your question. It seems that rather than the lips being overdone the placement is not ideal. There appears to be more of the filler above the ‘Cupid’s Bow” or lip line . I would not try to dissolve this. If anything, a little gentle massage of the lip might help but I would not be very aggressive. A consultation with an experienced provider is always recommended.
Best of luck.
I had a breast enlargement. What is this line under my left breast?
Line under breast
Oct 27, 2017
Thanks for your question. The line is referred to as a “double bubble” sign. It usually comes from the implant displacing downward. Repairing it requires tacking the crease back down (a surgical procedure). The other option is to do nothing. It is possible that there will be no further change.
Best of luck.
One breast bigger than the other after breast reduction?
One breast larger
Oct 27, 2017
Thanks for the photos. You are absolutely right. There is asymmetry. I would wait a minimum of three months for all surgical changes to settle down. A revision, however, seems likely.
Best of luck.
Dismally unhappy with BA results, will bigger be better? 11 weeks post op. 275cc textured gel, under
Unhappy
Oct 27, 2017
Thanks for your question and for including the photos. The nipple height and breast shape were different to begin with. The implants have just magnified that difference. A small lift on the left would help that. I agree that if you want a rounder shape that a larger implant will be required. I might also consider placing the implant above the muscle to achieve a higher position.
Best of luck.
How much is swelling versus underarm fat?
Under arm swelling
Oct 25, 2017
Thanks for your question. Comparing the before and after photos the area appears improved. However, it is still very early and a good bit of what you see could be swelling. It may take 6 weeks to several months for all of that to resolve. At this point I would think that patience would be the best advice.
Best of luck.
Breast reduction. Is vertical scar reduction applicable for me?
Vertical Scar
Oct 25, 2017
From your pictures it would seem that a vertical scar only would not be enough. You would probably experience some “bottoming out” of the breasts. An extension into the fold would help to take up the excess skin.
Best of luck.
Do my implants look symmetrical enough? 3 months post op 425cc high profile mentor unders.
Symmetrical
Sep 11, 2017
Based on the one photo it appears that symmetry of size and shape is good. I would not be in any hurry to have additional surgery. Remember that all procedures carry potential risks and downsides.
Best of luck.
Breast reduction/tummy tuck with muscle repair down time.
Downtime
Sep 11, 2017
The most limiting aspect of your proposed surgery is the muscle repair. Usually several weeks are need to get back towards normal. It’s important not to try to push that timetable as it can result in setbacks.
Best of luck.
Is it safe to get a mommy makeover if I am a post kidney transplant patient?
Cosmetic Surgery and immunosuppression
Sep 11, 2017
Cosmetic surgery can and has been performed in transplant patients. The extent and scope of the surgery would have to be evaluated as safety is the overarching consideration. All of your physicians should have input into the decision making process and the aftercare.
Best of luck.
Replacing older subglandular implants: considering switch to submuscular. Told too risky?
Implant Exchange
Sep 11, 2017
Great question. Actually there are several questions wrapped into this post.
First, submuscular vs subglandular. You state that you are very active.”Animation deformity” with the submuscular placement may be troubling. Consider staying subglandular and using a highly cohesive gel implant. Second, size. As the size increases the sheer weight of the implants may allow them to move out of position. third, shape. The breasts have bottomed out somewhat…
Are my breasts too tubular to benefit from a BA?
Tuberous Breadts
Apr 27, 2017
The photo does not show a tuberous breast. However, there is both size and shape asymmetry and both should be addressed for an acceptable result. A breast augmentation for both breasts and a small lift on the right might give the best result.
Thanks for your question.
Best of luck.
Is it possible to just get a liposuction on just my flanks, no tummy tuck, etc.
Liposuction for Love Handles
Apr 20, 2017
Liposuction of the love handles and the back would improve that area. To what extent is unclear. However, it would be a great jump start to an abdominal recontouring process without tremendous downtime.
Best of luck.
Breast lift with moderate plus? High? 350 to 375 cc? I am 5’5, 137 lbs and 40 years old. Thoughts? (
Breast Lift /Augmentation
Apr 20, 2017
Excellent question. I agree that you would benefit from a lift. I would elevate the nipple and areola and narrow the base of the breasts slightly. One side appears wider than the other. I also agree that a higher profile implant would give a very nice result. The exact size is an important topic for you and your Plastic Surgeon to review.
Best of luck.
