Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
No significant major increase in surgical risks. A note from your primary care provider would be recommended to clear for anesthesia.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
The breast surgery alone is complicated and 8 hours is a long time in the OR. Most surgery centers limit surgical time so you may have to have the surgery in a hospital and stay overnight. If you have the luxury of splitting the surgery and having 2 separate recoveries, that would be best but it can be one in one surgery if necessary.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Patient is a higher risk and would need medical prophylaxis against blood clots which could increase risk of bleeding complications. as long as patient knows and all precautions are taken, the surgery could be done but would be considered higher risk.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Everyone heals differently. I would expect the patient would have improvement in arm movement by about two weeks. Heavier lifting related to the abdomen may need 4 weeks.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Everyone scars differently. We have many options to help with scarring but there is no way to guarantee a good scar in patients no matter what skin type they have.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Either procedure can be done first. Most people choose the area that bothers them most or may plan the procedure around the length of time for recovery or possibly cost. The surgeon can take precautions to avoid lowering the breast scar if the breast surgery were to be done first.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
The nerve block in the back of your head should not compromise your hair follicles. If your transplanted grafts are in the front or top of your head, you should be safe with injections in the back as well.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Once your lasered skin has healed completely, you should be able to safely have a hair transplant in that area.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
This process usually gets better with time but for whatever reason it is taking a long time in your case, probably due to your fair skin. I would be concerned with any agressive treatments which may compromise your tranplants. I would give this more time and see if it persists past 18 months and then revisit options with your surgeon or a dermatologist.

I had a 1800 graft hair transplant with Dr Glat. The entire staff made me feel comfortable and welcome from the beginning. After the procedure I was a little concerned with whether it would be thick enough and was assured to wait it out and they were right. I am a year out and very pleased with the results!
The staff was very nice and considerate. They provided me with multiple options that would fit the goals I had for my hair. Provided a ton of background information regarding these procedures that made me feel very comfortable going into this from the start. The procedure was efficient and results are already showing after my 1st/2nd treatments.
The people there are very nice and very professional. They explain everything very well before treatment so you know what to expect. My technician Ezela is very nice and very professional. The results are wonderful! I am so glad my hair stylist told me about Dr. Glat!
The doctor and the clinical staff were extremely professional and were very clear about the procedure, care instructions and outlook for results. Both the clinical experience and the results have exceeded expectations!
I cannot say enough how pleased I am with both the results of the procedure and Dr. Glat and his team. Anthony as well as all of the staff at the office were responsive, attentive and accommodating. I had no issue scheduling appointments, changing them if need be and getting prompt responses to any questions or concerns I had. And the results of the procedure speak for themselves, I was pretty blown away at my 1 year follow up when I was comparing my before and after photos. I would strongly recommend Dr. Glat, Anthony Colajezzi and the rest of the team here.
One year follow-up from my second procedure. Could not be more pleased with the results, Dr. Glat and his outstanding staff. The team always makes you feel comfortable during the procedure and very responsive to your questions.
The entire process of my procedure was incredible. Dr. Glatt has a truly amazing staff that was caring and informative from the very beginning. I am so happy with my results a year later and the staff is still offering guidance and support.
I am very happy with my results and overall experience with Dr. Glat and his awesome team. They were transparent and professional throughout the entire process and everything went seamless from my perspective. I knew exactly what to expect and there were zero surprises with the procedure and post-op.
Dr Glat and is very knowledgeable and skilled staff went beyond and above to help me feel comfortable, they ALL attended me with great care, making the procedure a breeze! This is my second procedure with Dr. Glat... that says it all'

This was the best experience ever. Now i can go through life confident and forward the way everyone should .
