In your case, NEVER!!! Please, please, please do not consider liposuction alone... After significant weight loss - individuals like yourself have extra skin. Lipo will just make it worse... My advice would be to seek out a board certified plastic surgeon and get a second opinion! Wishing you the very best of luck.

Botox will help soften the fine lines and wrinkles on your face. Your forehead will appear smoother and give you a more youthful appearance. Botox does not have any lifting properties and it will not decrease the size of your pores. Collagen induction therapy (microneedling) is the option I would choose for your pores. I use the skin fuse skin pen. You can also use this collagen induction therapy technique with PRP (plasma reduced platelets). The blood is taken from your arm with a very small needle and placed in a centrifuge to seperate the red blood cells from the platelets. The platelets have multiple growth factors in them that assist with regeneration of your skin.

Most patients will begin to see changes in the way your face animates and softening of your fine lines and wrinkles as soon as 72-96 hours after Botox administration. Patients will see the full effect of Botox by 2 weeks after being injected.

ANSWER
Most clinicians will tell you that you can see the full effect of Botox by 2 weeks, although it usually doesn't take that long. That being said, you can see changes in the way your face animates as soon as 72-96 hours after the injections. I advise my patients to take a "selfie" daily after being injected to be able to see the improvement in fine lines/wrinkles and your progress.

Thank you for your question. The size of implant that can be fit into your chest depends on several factors. The amount of skin stretch (how loose your skin is), the volume or strength of your pec major muscles, and the dimensions of your torso. Truthfully this can really only be answered by meeting in person with a plastic surgeon so that you can discus the different issues, risks, benefits, and alternatives.Best of luck!

Thanks for your question and photos. I do agree that either a Benelli or a lollipop lift would provide a great result. It is hard to determine which would be better via a photograph online. That being said it will also be important to evaluate the position of your implants to make sure that they are not too high and that they also fill out the lower portion of your breasts!best of luck!

Great question - first and foremost, it is important to take it easy, but at the same time I always encourage patient to walk around the house at least once every waking hour. I personally like the homeopathic medication Arnica and its effects on bruising and swelling. Of course your binder or garment is also important - just be sure to make sure that it is not too tight! Best of luck!

ANSWER
Great question! The quick answer is yes, the long answer is probably yes. In most cases this can be done, however, of course it is important to have a thorough discussion with your plastic surgeon regarding the specific details relating to your previous surgery, your aesthetic goals, and of course, your medical history. Factors that can be relevant is your smoking history, how much lift is needed, among others. I wish you the very best of luck!

ANSWER
Quick answer - in my hands - no. To me, advertising the use of a laser in this procedure is more marketing than substance. In my humble opinion, much more than the particular instrument used, what is most important is a surgeon's skill, sense of aesthetics, and experience. My advice is to select an experienced board certified surgeon and have a thorough discussion about the techniques and the surgeon's experience. Best of luck!

Thank you for the photos and question. Based upon the information provided, you would be a fabulous candidate for a neck lift. This procedure would undoubtedly involve a platysmaplasty, or platysma muscle plication. It would also likely involve removing some fat from the area under the chin as well. I agree that it is very important to go to a board certified and very experienced plastic surgeon who has significant expertise and experience in performing facial rejuvenation procedures.I wish you the best of luck.
