QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Am I entitled to anything?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
The word entitled is probably not the best word.  The hope is that you picked a reputable surgeon who stands behind his work and will do what he can to ensure your happiness.  Part of the sucess of the procedure is to ensure your expectations and the surgeons are the same.  Also, remember that it can take up to three months to see final results from any surgery or procedure.

Is Sculptra safe? I am 65 and had a consultation with a plastic surgeon about injectables.

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Like any injection it needs to be done in the hands of a well trained injector.  sculptra is one of the best options for facial volume loss and skin tightening.  If you have seen an experienced doctor and they feel your a good candidate, it is the way to go!

Is it normal for Dysport to wear off so quickly?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
while dysport and botox are said to last 3-4 months, it can really vary based on the person, the dosage, and the area injected.  I would think it should last longer than it is.  my suggestion would be to try botox on your next visit and see if that last any longer.

Is Belotero a good filler for marionette lines?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Belotero is one of the thinner HA filler products out there.  It can be a very good option for an area that is not very volume defficient.  If the marrionette lines are very deep, a thicker filler should be used.

Is Perlane okay for under eyes and lips?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
While perlane can be used, I do find that restylane is a much better result in those areas.  and i definitely don't believe in changing something you were happy with.

My Doc put Perlane onto my cheekbone & not into the skin. Any suggestions?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Although perlane is technically a dermal filler it can be used at a deeper level in certain areas.  The injection of perlane deep into the cheeks is actually a nice way to enhance the cheek without looking unnatural.  Generally Radiesse is a better option in that area, as you can accomplish more volume with less product. However perlane will do a nice job, and should last between 8-11 months.

Are the results of Radiesse in the cheeks ever permanent?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
While radiesse can stimulate your body to build its own collagen, radiesse itself is not permanent.  The product generally lasts about a year, but some patients will have it a bit longer.  however, injection of hyaluronidase to help break up some of the product has been successful in several patients.  You may want to discuss that option with your injector so you don't have to live like that for a full year.  Good Luck!

I had Breast augmentation done on Friday and I am absolutely horrified by how bad my breasts look. Any suggestions? (photo)

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Submuscular breast implants always sit high initially. However without knowing your preop appearance or your postop appearance, it is very difficult to comment. At this point in time the only recommendation is to consult with your plastic surgeon to see if they wish for you to begin aggressive massaging of the implants. You may need to undergo a revision if the implants do not settle into the desired position.

Had breast augmentation on December 8th. I'm curious when I can start to get back to ab workouts and/or arm lifting?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Following breast augmentation, I recommend that patients not do anything that will elevate their blood pressure or heart rate for two weeks. For the next several weeks, one should limit significant use of the upper extremities when the implants are placed under the muscle. With this in mind, I would still recommend that you discuss your activities with your plastic surgeon.

I feel confident and I am pleased with my results!!!

Dr Birely is phenomenal! He listened to MY goals and made his recommendations accordingly. He throughly explained the procedure, incision sites, and pre/post care instructions. I have encountered plastic surgeons that are more concerned about financial gain than their potential client's desires, comfortability, and affordability. This is not the case with Dr Birely. I was given options and recommendations based on my desired outcome and time to make a decision without feeling pressured. Dr Birely and his staff are welcoming, kind, considerate, professional, and compassionate. If you are considering plastic surgery he is an excellent choice. I am feel confident and I am pleased with my results!!!

Tummy Tuck

Awesome Plastic Surgeon and Great Staff!

I had 2 consultations in the BWI area. Dr. Birely comes w/experience and a staff who answered all my questions. They know the procedures from personal experience and made me feel super comfortable. I had consultation 3 June, and walked out with my procedure scheduled for 2 weeks later. My pre-op went very well, not issues. I'm 5'4, 181lbs (I'm not muscular,but very solid). I went to a local urgent care for labs. Surgery day was non eventful( which is good) I met with the nurse, anesthesiologist, and then Dr. Birely who did all his markings. After I walked into surgery area and layed on the table I was out within seconds of receiving anesthesia.I was very coherent when I woke up, I was wheeled to my car and rode home without any dizziness/loneliness etc. After surgery....I live in a townhouse and had a recliner moved to my bedroom prior to surgery. I stayed in the chair for 4 days minus walking back and forth to my daughter's room. I used that as my exercise. I also placed plenty of pillows under my legs to keep my legs elevated. I also kept my binding on at all time...basically following the Docs instructions. Pros: I feel good and look good; its day 6 and I have no complaints! Cons: None...I'm so glad I finally got the surgery.

$8,300Tummy Tuck

Consultation Review - Lutherville, MD

After many years I've finally decided to get a consultation for liposuction. Dr. Birely was my first appointment and was extremely impressed. His staff was very professionally, friendly and pleasant. Dr. Birely took his time and explained each process to me while being very detailed. Although I initially went to get information on liposuction, I opted to get a tummy tuck with liposuction. I know people say you should shop around but I knew Dr. Birely was the one. I'm scheduled to have my procedure done in April and I can't wait!!

Breast Reduction

Breast Reduction - Baltimore, MD

Dr. Birely is very professional. He understood exactly the pain I was going through with large breast. He gave me wonderful advice to make sure this procedure was for me. He asked all the right questions so he could achieve the results that I wanted. He never hesitated to give him a call no matter what it was I may need before and after surgery. He was very uplifting the day of the surgery showing lots of enthusiasm on how great this was going to turn out, which made me feel good and cared for. All of the staff I came in contact with were very kind and understanding.

I am very happy with my decision to have my mini tummy tuck done. I absolutely loved Dr. Birely and his staff. The ladies were very warm and caring. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed. I would recommend Dr. Birely to everyone. He was a great surgeon. The surgery was worth the investment. I'm very happy with my stomach and the scar flattened out with no problems at all.

I received botox for my upcoming wedding festivities. I could not be happier with the results! Dr. Bierley's office and staff are great! Cheryl is the best!

Dysport and Radiesse -- So Worth It! - Lutherville, MD

I had Dysport injections for crows feet and Radiesse for subtle volume in the cheek area. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. I've seen so many people who've had fillers at various spas, with what I would not consider flattering results, so I was a bit nervous before trying this myself. Cheryl, Dr. Birely's PA, did a careful evaluation and confidently did the injections, and the results are amazing. I recall hearing that more important than the type of injectable is the skill of the person doing the injections, and I really believe that to be true. Cheryl is gentle, skilled and has the artistic eye required to achieve the amazing results that I have gotten. I didn't want to look different -- just better, and I got just what I wanted! Dr. Birely and all his staff are the best!
