I Am Afraid of General Anesthesia, Would Smart Lipo Work for Me or Do I Need Regular Lipo? (photo)

I am 33 years old, I got 3 kids, youngest is 2 years old, 6 yers ago I got breast implants and I hd no problem with the general anhestesia, but now that I have 3 kids I feel bad if sometingh happen to me who would take care of them. I want to have a nice body like before, So wich one would be the safest and would help me flatten my belly and hips. thanks PS when do I need to do it t be ready for this summer

A: of anesthesia for liposuction I myself am partial to Smartlipo But either form will work for you. When do you do Under local or with Twilight sedation is really up to you and your surgeon. local is not for everyone specially the upper abdomen area which is extra sensitive. we do either but for the great majority of patients I prefer sedation. it is extremely safe and so much easier for people to go through especially when you get into larger areas. good luck with either decision.

Will a Breast Lift Make my Breasts Look Smaller, or Larger?

Hi there, Almost two years ago after 3 back to back pregnancies i had my 275cc saline implants replaced with 375cc HP silicone. At the time I was afraid of the anchor scar so I did a donut lift instead. I'm now considering going back for the lift but I'm concerned my breasts will end up looking smaller. Im a 34DD in VS brand bras...Will I need a larger implant with the lift to keep my large size? Thank you:)

A: breast size after a lift should be virtually no change in volume after your lift operation. only a very small amount of skin is removed. it may actually looks a little fuller with no clothes on but in a bra it should be the same.

African American Worried About Benelli Lift Scar, What Can I Expect?

In my reading the Q/A in realself, I came across a PS that said African americans should NEVER use an areola incision beacuse of scarring. this has really bothered me because i was finally happy that I didnt have to have the lollipop scar and I thought this scar would be much less noticable. I also have very large areolas and my PS is making them smaller. Please let me know if I will absolutely have terrible scarring or does it vary from cast to case. Also, 400cc too big for Benelli lift?

A: benelli in african american skin that is 1 of the ideal indications for the surgery done with a scar only around the areola. problem is that not everyone is the ideal candidate for this procedure. make sure that your doctor is very comfortable with that operation. another trick is to wear either tape or some type of silicon strips 4 a long time after the surgery
