Answer Header & Date

Answer Snippet

Is the muscles tightened in a tummy tuck using the Avelar method?

Avelar Method of Abdominoplasty
Feb 19, 2009

The Avelar Abdominoplasty refers to a technique for tummy tucks that was developed in the 1990’s by a Brazilian plastic surgeon. I have had the pleasure of seeing him present his techniques, watch him perform surgery, and have been very impressed with his results.
If the surgeon performing the technique strictly follows Dr. Avelar’s method, then yes, there will be muscle tightening stitches placed. However, since I personally do not perform the procedure, nor do I know the surgeon performing…

Will insurance pay for hernia surgery with Tummy Tuck?

Insurance may only cover hernia repair
Feb 19, 2009

Often times they will pay for the portion of the procedure that involves the hernia repair, but rarely will they pay for a cosmetic procedure, or any of the operating rooom, anesthesia fees that would not normally be associated with the hernia repair (i.e. the cosmetic procedures).
In my experience, the savings gained by having insurance companies cover a portion of the procedure have been modest at best, and as always, your usual deductibles, co-pays and other isues will still apply….

Pain, fluid pockets normal months after liposuction?

Fluid retention from Liposuction relatively rare
Feb 19, 2009

While some residual swelling and pain can persist for several months after liposuction, fluid pockets are relatively rare. I personally have had fluid collections in the form of a seroma occasionally form after liposuction, but with appropriate treatment they have resolved.

Could lumps develop weeks after liposuction?

Lumps post Liposuction could be several things
Feb 19, 2009

Lumps are a kind of generic term that might apply to a couple of different issues resulting from liposuction. For starters, there will definitely be a few areas of swelling and firmness, that might feel like nodules or lumps, these can sometimes last for up to six months afterwards. There can also be some small areas of residual fat remaining, that could feel like lumps.
Initially after liposuction, there is a lot of swelling and bruising, but as that decreases, you can start to feel…

Will pubic area pouch developed after liposuction go away?

Pubic swelling from Liposuction normal
Feb 19, 2009

This really depends on the reason for the pouch. Some patients notice a pouch after body-contouring, but this is because removing the fat in other areas has now made this area more prominent (i.e. now they can see it more easily). Often though, there is a temporary fullness due to fluids used during liposuction and due to the body’s reaction to the surgical procedure. We sometimes get very fearful phone calls the evening after the surgery, or over the first few days, with patients…

Fluid retention due to Blepharoplasty?

Some edema normal after Facial Surgery
Feb 19, 2009

It is unlikely to to get significant general body fluid retention after head and neck surgery, BUT some edema or fluid retention in the areas in which surgery was done is normal. After eyelid surgery, some swelling of the face is normal and can last up to two weeks, some swelling of the eyelids will persist for three or more months depending on what kind of surgery was done. Some eyelid surgery is combined with a cheek lift (or mid-face lift) and then the swelling can last even longer….
