Laser Hair removal for non pigmented hair will unfortunately help and or work. Anytime you are combining any sort of hair removal it is always best to proceed with caution and give yourself at least 2 weeks in between treatments. Hope this is helpful

ANSWER
Good morning ! I would recommend going to your plastic surgeon and have them do a breast exam. Any patient that has implants will always have some sort of "capsule" because they are not natural breasts. The only time it becomes problematic is when there is pain associated with it (baker grade 4) and that is when the patient has to decide if they would want a capsulectomy with an implant exchange. There will always be slight differences between your right and left breast they will never be the same. Hope this is helpful, good luck !

Good Morning ! Doing a breast lift with implants will help with your dislikes of your breasts along with changing the size of your areolas at the same time. Depending on the size of your implant you select and the surgeon you select will depend on the style of lift performed. Smooth implants are sought to be the safest implants. My preference in my practice is subfasical placement, it looks the best and feels more like natural breasts. Good luck with your journey !

Good Morning ! With your blepharoplasty being done 12 years ago I would return to your surgeon and discuss further options. Oddly enough everyone's face is different from right and left. There is always going to be slight asymmetry, but if there is extra skin noted on one of the upper lids vs the other that would be something the surgeon should be able to address. Hope this is helpful, take care !

ANSWER
Hello ! I would recommend taking your concerns up with the plastic surgeon that performed the surgery, it could be the type of liposuction that they performed. Depending on which liposuction the surgeon uses can depend on how long the healing process can take.
