Doctor Q&A

Hello, a standard breast augmentation procedure does not involve reducing the size of the areolae, but this certainly could be done at the same time. For example a "donut lift" (perieareolar mastopexy) involves removing a donut-shaped strip of skin around the edge of the areolae to make them smaller. If you seek a consultation with a plastic surgeon with experience doing this procedure, they can advise you on the additional scars, healing time, risks and costs. Thank you for your question...

There will always be some skin laxity there since it allows you to bend and twist your mid-section. However, when you stand straight it doesn’t seem like the issue is as apparent. For that reason, it may be that only a bit of skin tightening is necessary. You may want to consider whether the surgical experience would be worth this minor improvement.

You have a beautiful shape and are an excellent candidate for a BBL and would have a significant difference with liposuction through the key area. However, there is no surgery or procedure or amount of exercise that can create an infra-gluteal crease. You have one but it is short and your butt blends directly into your leg. That is fairly common but there is no correction or anything that can be done to change that.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a revision rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include placement of spreaders grafts to help improve symmetry of the dorsal aesthetic lines, possible morselized bone dorsal onlay graft to help improve dorsal contour, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon...

Lipo 360 and Jplasma will do nothing for you except make your situation worse. Since you are wanting a mommy makeover I would begin with your breasts first. I recommend a breast lift using The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. This procedure...

Based on your nicely posted photos, you would need a full medical clearance for your H ROT issues prior to having more of a lift than a reduction. I would label this a lift small reduction. Expect fee to rent from $5000-$10,000. Best of a virtual consult with.

Sizers are implants you can fit into your bra to see and feel your predicted results. That is generally the easiest way for patients to determine what size would be most suitable. Please ask your surgeon about them.

A double fold, often called a banana roll, is a difficult area to fully correct. Improvements can be made, but you may always have some evidence of a depression a the smaller, higher fold. Some options that are nonsurgical include cool sculpting to reduce the fatty tissue between the creases, but this can be imprecise. Other options include fat removal with liposuction in the roll itself, combined with subcision - a procedure that releases any tethers from the muscle to the skin creating the...

Relax. At least from the photos provided, the use of an appropriate, robust HA volumizing filler properly injected can typically yield immediate results and engender little to no significant downtime. The upper cheeks are a major support for the under-eye region. Hence, the layering of a robust HA filler in that region can restore a smooth transition between the upper cheeks and lower eyelids, I.e. elevating the hollow and smoothing the transition to the under-eyes. In experienced hands,...

HI there. You are too young for a facelift. I would be curious to know if your weight has changed over the last 2-3 years. I would not add any more volume to your face. Buccal fat removal with minimally invasive skin tightening ie. Facetite may be good options. But you you should certainly seek an in-person consultation form a qualified Plastic Surgeon.
