Hello. You can definitely combine tummy tuck with BBL rather it will be advisable to combine. The fat harvested during lipoabdominolasty can be processed and grafted as fat graft in BBL. We have to ensure the safety limits of lipo-aspiration and duration of surgery apart from other parameters. We routinely do tummy tuck with BBL at our Centre for Cosmetic Surgery, Mumbai, India.

Hello. The issue described can be addressed by 2 options. 1. Reverse tummy tuck with revision lipo ( better option) 2. Minimally invasive like VASER liposuction with Bodytite (less reliable) VASER & Bodytite both helps in better skin contraction than conventional liposuction alone. We routinely perform these surgeries at our Centre for Cosmetic Surgery, Mumbai, India. For any further queries feel free to connect with us. Thank you.

ANSWER
Hello. The implant of choice for more upper pole fullness is round implant rather than anatomical. Round implant will help in achieving reliable upper pole fullness. However, whether you are the candidate for just breast augmentation or augmentation mastopexy ( breast lift with implant) requires a due clinical examination or at least photographs. Breast implant size can vary with BWD, pinch thickness, percentage of parenchyma and importantly patient's expectation. For any further queries feel free to connect with us. Thank you.

ANSWER
Hello. Breast reduction using a superior or supero-medial pedicle technique will help in achieving the reduction and lift with upper pole fullness. Inferior pedicle breast reduction will not help in this case. It is important to have a detailed conversation after looking at the pictures and body morphology. To decide upper pole fullness the most important aspect is the breast foot print. For any further queries you can connect with us. Thank you.

ANSWER
Hello. We can combine the breast reduction surgery and hiatus hernia in one surgery i.e. under one anaesthesia. Laparoscopic haitus hernia will be done by a GI surgeon which breast reduction will be done by plastic surgeon. The recovery of both the procedures can be combined. Also this reduces the overall costs as two surgeries are combine together. We routinely combine laparoscopic surgery with aesthetic surgery but within the safety limits. Hiatus hernia surgery will not prevent you from undergoing a breast reduction surgery. For any further queries feel free to connect with us. Thank you.

ANSWER
Hello. My recommendation would be to consider the revision breast lift. Revision surgery can be planned based on the measurements of the normal breast. However, a detailed assessment by plastic surgeon is important before confirming the procedure. For any further queries, you can connect with us. All the best! Thank you.

ANSWER
Hello. Since you are fond of working out, it is advisable to do subfascial implants. Pure breast augmentation with fat transfer is difficult as expected volume of fat harvested would be less. Breast implant size is depending on various parameters like upper pole pinch thickness, base width, ration of breast parenchyma, pull at level of NAC, etc. Let your surgeon assess you and you can discuss your expectations as well then decide the size of implants. All the best! Thank you. Regards, Dr. Sameer Karkhanis, Centre for Cosmetic Surgery, Mumbai, India

ANSWER
Hello. You can plan your breast augmentation now. The modern implants do not interfere with the breast feeding potential. However, with pregnancy and aging there could be sagging in breast later, which may require a surgery of breast lift (not compulsory). If you are planning after pregnancy the it is better to do it once the family is complete i.e. after all pregnancies.
