ANSWER
If you are having general anesthesia liposuction, generally, make up is not going to be advised. With tumescent or local anesthesia, it is probably ok. However, you aren't going to be going to lunch right after surgery anyway. So, best to be all natural anyway. Best of luck.

Liposuction of the knees can safely be performed after a knee replacement as long as all the swelling from the surgery has subsided. Usually, a year would be sufficient in most cases as long as there has been no complications with the healing of the replacement. Best of luck.

Ultherapy is a non-invasive skin tightening device that can lift and tighten skin. Skin tightening devices can be a great adjunct to injectables and skin care for any anti-aging regimen. Combination treatments that target different signs of aging tend to have a greater effect than when done alone. There is no risk to doing the treatments and in fact there can be a great benefit. Best of luck.

ANSWER
Vbeam works well for redness from blood vessels. However, the way the laser fires would not be good for a scar under a tattoo as the vbeam could pick up color in the tattoo and cause blistering or a burn. If the scar is raised, possibly an injection of steroid could work. Non-ablative lasers that don't attract color like the fraxel could be used as well. But I would avoid using a pulsed dye laser over a tattoo. Best of luck.

ANSWER
Liposuction alone is usually not a solution for lower abdomen laxity after children. Although removing the fat can improve the contour, the laxity is usually unaffected. Combining a laser or radiofrequency treatment under the skin can improve the texture. For patients that don't want to undergo tummy tucks this can be a good option. Although not as tight after as a surgery, the improvement can be dramatic especially if combined with external tightening devices after the liposuction procedure. Best of luck.

PAH is a rare complication of coolsculpting that affects about 1 out of 500 patients. It presents as increased in fat that is in the shape of the applicator. Patients can have tenderness to the area and firmness that starts as soon as a few weeks after the treatment. This does not usually present as lumps or bumps. The only treatment for PAH currently is liposuction. However, if the office you went to does not know what PAH is or does not do liposuction, it is probably best to get an opinion from a physician that does both coolsculpting and liposuction. Best of luck.

ANSWER
Botox injected in the forehead can cause heaviness or droopiness of the lids in patients for a few reasons. In some patients, this can be due to pre-existing laxity of the tissue. However, more often than not, this is due to too high doses of neuromodulator or injections that are too low that cause the forehead to lose it's lifting ability. However, forehead injections will not affect the nasal tip. For patients with a small amount of nasal tip droop, sometimes botox can be used to lift the tip by relaxing the muscle under the nose. Thankfully, the heaviness of the brow subsides pretty quickly in most patients. Best of luck.

ANSWER
Vasovagal responses with fillers can be common in some patients. Make sure to eat prior to injections. Some patients find listening to music or telling a story can be helpful. Blindness from fillers is thankfully a rare complication from fillers. And though it can happen, the most common areas that this has happened is in the forehead and nose. Even in those areas, it is extremely rare. Visual changes from filler would only happen on 1 side and would not be associated with lightheadedness or dizziness. Best of luck.

ANSWER
Voluma and Radiesse are both deep fillers used to provide volume. Both can provide significant lift to the temples, cheeks and jawline. As far as depth of injection, the products are injected in the same plane of tissue which is deep. If these fillers are placed too superficially, a noticeable lump or bump may be present. As far as which is better, it depends on the person. Thicker skin individuals would generally do better with Radiesse while thinner skin may do better with Voluma.

ANSWER
Coolsculpting and breast implants would not cause a systemic rash. Rashes are difficult to tell from photos without more information. However, looking at the picture the rash could be a yeast rash or eczema. Seek out a Dermatologist for evaluation. Best of luck.
