Considering Breast Augmentation. Will 400cc Implants Get Me My Desired Look and a D Cup? (photo)

i am considering a breast augmentation, i am 5,6 i weigh 110 pounds and i want to go to a d, i was considering 400cc high profile implants or maybe even more, how many cc will i need to achieve this

Breast implant choice can be a difficult decision because there is no way to standardize bra cup size. The amount of cc's that the implant has does not always translate into an accurate cup size.  There may be limitations of how large you can go based on your skin elasticity and rib cage dimensions.  Your plastic surgeon can give you a very close estimate of what breast implant will be best on your particular frame. I routinely use 3D imaging before surgery which allows the patient to visualize what they will look like with a certain size breast implant in place. If this is unavailable to you, you can try on some different sized implants in a bra at your surgeon's office to get a rough idea of what you may look like. Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for more detailed information.

Best wishes,

Should I Get Alarplasty Along with Rhinoplasty? What Type of Result Should I Expect? (photo)

Hello doctors, I am certain about getting rhinoplasty because I have always had a rather bulbuous tip and wide nose (extended alars). I have a bump and slight largeness to the left side of the nose as well. My main concern is the bulbuousness and the drooping of the tip which ideally, would be the main goal I want out of the rhinoplasty. I would ideally like to have a slimmer nose & more refined/upheld shape to the tip. Can alarplasty achieve that w/o scarring? What should I expect? Thanks!

You are a fantastic candidate for an ethnic rhinoplasty. The nasal bridge should be carefully reduced and incrementally.
The tip is droopy which requires depressor muscle removal (fairly routine in ethnic noses); tip skin debulking, nostril alar and sill narrowing (conservative and natural); tip raising (without excess nostril show). Please contact us with more questions at ghavamiplasticsurgery.com.

I'm Getting a Tummy Tuck March 26 Can my Whole Tattoo Be Removed and Should I Lose Weight? (photo)

I'm thirty years old with four kids. I'm schedule to get a mommy makeover March 26 and I'm scared!!! Can my tattoo be completely removed and do I need to lose weight?

The more weight  you lose before surgery the better your results will be. Most of the skin and stretch marks from your pubic area to you belly button will be removed with a tummy tuck. Your surgeon will be able to better answer the question since you have already had a complete examination.
