I had bilateral SGAP Breast Reconstruction in August. I had to travel to have it done. I have an open wound on my breast and so I'm not ready for Stage II. However, I don't want to wait to get a more comfortable contour to my behind. Can a local plastic surgeon with extensive buttock Lipo experience (but not with GAP donor site) handle this or are there medical issues unique to a GAP that would require me to go to a microvascular surgeon? The scars look fine, I just want to get rid of the uncomfortable "tail" and shape things up a bit.
Revisional surgery for that area should be no problem for a local plastic surgeon. The problem you may run into is insurance coverage and/or insurance reimbursement acceptance from a different plastic surgeon than the one who did the original procedure. We plastic surgeons are that way sometimes.
