285 Cc Breast Augmentation and Abdominal Lipo, 31 Year Old

After thinking about doing a breast aug and abdominal lipo for over a decade, I finally decided to book an appointment. I'm 31 and have had one child. My breasts were in good shape before, so I didn't need to do a lift. I was debating doing 285 vs 255 cc (using the Sentra Silicone implant) and decided to do 285cc. Overall, I am really happy with my results. The recovery stages can be rough,...

Dr. Z exceeded my expectations - couldn't be happier with my results

10 years ago I met Dr. Z for the first time and had a breast lift and augmentation. After my weight had fluctuates a couple of times, I decided I wanted another lift and to go a little bigger. I had a lift with an implant transfer. As always, Dr. Z exceeded my expectations. I am 4 months post-op and I couldn't be happier with my results. From my first appointment to my last, the staff were...

Made me feel like I had control of any and all decisions

Dr. Z was absolutely amazing! From losing a lot of weight, a lost a lot of my breast tissue. I lacked confidence & my boobs were extremely droopy. I needed both a breast lift and augmentation. I explained to Dr. Z exactly what I was looking for and with their technology, I was able to envision what the final product could be. Dr. Z made me feel comfortable, made me feel like I had control...

I finally got my confidence back

My experience with Dr. Z was no less than absolutely amazing he listens. He gives his opinions on what he thinks is best, and his opinion usually is right. I’ve gone to him for two surgeries about seven years apart from each other, and I have extremely been pleased with both of them. I now have my body back after having babies, and I can’t thank him enough. I finally got my confidence back.The...

Q: Am I a good candidate for a mommy makeover?
Answered by Dr. ZienowiczApril 23, 2024

A: Hello and thank you for your question. Unfortunately answering your question is complicated, as patient anatomy, patient goals, medical history, nicotine use, BMI, breast measurements, skin quality, and abdominal muscle separation all factor into which surgery/surgeries are best for them. The most effective way of getting upper pole volume is with a breast implant, then fat grafting if a patient does not want implants. Correcting asymmetry is typically best done with a breast lift. A breast lift can be done with or without an implant and with or without fat grafting to the breast - be sure to discuss all of your options with your board certified plastic surgeon. Best of luck to you!

Q: If I choose an implant that has a greater width that my BWD, will that be wide enough to cover my frame? (Photo)
Answered by Dr. ZienowiczApril 23, 2024

A: Hello and thank you for your question. I use Vectra3D imaging at my practice to measure not only BWD but many measurements of the chest. I typically do recommend an implant that is wider than a patient's natural BWD as this typically provides breast volume in the center and sides of chest that patients are looking for with augmentation. I hope that helps and best of luck to you!

Q: 30 year old female, 5 vials of Sculptra, what are my options with overproduction of collagen?
Answered by Dr. ZienowiczApril 23, 2024

A: Hello and thank you for your question. Unfortunately I do not think that there is much to do other than have time pass to reduce the volume from Sculptra injections. Hopefully they were still recent and some swelling will reside. You can certainly consult with a plastic surgeon to have them examine you in person and discuss options.

Q: What will get rid of the rolls on my back? How much will it cost? (photos)
Answered by Dr. ZienowiczApril 23, 2024

A: Hello and thank you for your question. It is difficult to tell based on your photos but it is unlikely that your back rolls will go away without skin removal surgery. If you are at a lower BMI you could likely have some reduction of the volume with liposuction and perhaps a skin-tightening treatment such as Renuvion, however, a complete removal of the rolls can only be achieved with skin removal. I would discuss the risks and expected results of liposuction alone with your surgeon as you will have to consider these before going forward with surgery to ensure you are happy with your results. Best of luck to you.

Q: What reasons would fat be added just to the upper face? Can this still look natural?
Answered by Dr. ZienowiczApril 23, 2024

A: Hello and thank you for your question. Very artfully and carefully placed fat grafting can offer a naturally beautiful rejuvenation of the face - whether the volume loss has been due to aging or weight loss or both. The cheek and temples are common sites for facial fat transfer. I typically recommend fat grafting to be done with many of the facelifts that I perform for best results. Your surgeon should be able to give an idea of how much volume (typically small volumes) and where it will be placed as well as what your results can look like. Best of luck to you!
