I don’t believe traveling long distances for your breast augmentation/lift is in your best interest. There is likely to be very minimal difference in the softness/feel of your breasts between the Memorygel Mentor and the Motiva implant. This is especially true if you have a reasonable amount of breast tissue over your implant. Mentor has cohesive one, cohesive two and cohesive three gels. The cohesive one is the softest gel and you’ve indicated that that’s what you’re choosing which I...

He result looks quite reasonable. However, the appearance is that of excess fat in the lower abdomen rather than muscle bulge or “scar tissue.”. A physical exam of the area would determine this, of course.

It appears that liposuction loan would suffice, but a pinched test would be necessary.

I tried to avoid descriptive terms like pear or heart when describing peoples body shapes or potential outcomes from procedures.
I generally see the female figure as an S curve.
This curve usually starts at about the armpit level and goes down to just outside the knee.
In your case, the main issue is fullness in the love handles with lack of volume in the hip dip area.
The goal of the procedure should be to reverse those volume problem areas, which should convert your body to having a...

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, yu are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, nasal tip deprojection, tip elevation, among other maneuvers.

Best wishes and good luck.

In my opinion, it’s not ideal to combine a full Mommy Makeover (tummy tuck, breast lift/augmentation, and 360 liposuction) with a BBL—even a “skinny” one—in the same operation. Here’s why:
Surgical time and safety: Combining all these procedures significantly lengthens operative time, which increases anesthesia and complication risks. A fatigued surgical team can also impact precision and outcomes.
Recovery conflict: After a Mommy Makeover, you’ll need to rest on your back; after a BBL, ...

Yes, you should be concerned about the presence of milk 9 days pre-op; the milk ducts can increase the risk of post-surgical infection because they remain open and allow bacteria to enter. For optimal safety, wait at least 3-6 months after you have completed breastfeeding for your milk ducts to close and dry up before undergoing breast reduction surgery

Your question is very interesting but since you did not post photos best to do a virtual consultation. I also do oversized breast implants and would recommend the virtual consultation affect fee to arrange with the internal bra as required $10,000-$18,000. Again, virtual consult is needed.

Based on only two post photos, I recommend a virtual consultation for better understanding your body type hard to predict if you will have irregular, wrinkle, dented skin following liposuction I might recommend combination of a Lipo 360 with abdominal J plasma or Endo laser in addition to the BBL. Again, best of virtual concert with expect fees to range from $6000-$10,000.

You may benefit from an in-person examination with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can demonstrate what might be achieved with each procedure.

Based on your nice series of photos, I recommend virtual consultations for better discussion points. I recommend revision a full mini neck facelift with re muscle plication and possible nano fat grafting under ultrasound. Expect possible fees in the $10,000 range. I might also add Endo laser treatment. Again, best of virtual consult with.
