Jana K. Rasmussen, MD (retired)

After many visits to several plastic surgeons in the area, I chose Dr. Rasmussen. Beyond her impressive credentials and obvious professional qualities, she truly offers an individual and tailored approach to each patient and is genuinely concerned to achieve the desired results. Dr. Rasmussen listened to my areas of concerns and offered very detailed and thorough explanations of my options, as well as the benefits and potential risks of each procedure. I went ahead to combine several non-invasive procedures – with very limited downtime - that addressed my issues and provided very fast and impressive improvements. Dr. Rasmussen made sure I was comfortable during the treatments (topical anesthetic), took the time to insure she achieved the discussed goals and followed up to confirm I was happy with the results. She is a genuine perfectionist! When I returned home, I was greeted by compliments (you look luminous, you look relaxed, you look rested) and questions (who is responsible for that glow? what is your secret?). I look younger, rejuvenated yet natural and myself. No exaggeration. I have had two series of interventions with Dr. Rasmussen, and despite living in Belgium, will continue to travel to Palm Beach to entrust my looks to her.

I had a five centimer removal in the office of a plastic surgeon ten days ago. It was in the groin area and as you all have written came back non cancerous. Two days after surgery I complained of a burning pain in the area of the lipoma removal. I was told this would go away. It has not it has gotten worse. The plastic surgeon who operated on me said she did not know what to do so she sent me to another plastic surgeon who injected the area with a one step above lidicaine medecine( I was told it would last longer than lidocain) I now notice upon standing in and looking at the site there is a small sac at the bottem of the incision actually where I am complaining of where the pain is coming from It is about the size of a half dollar. I noticed this because I was told bu the dr who operated on me that i should massage the area. Upon trying this technique it started the burning pain all over .. I stopped asap Also the area in not infected, I had a 14 inch black and blue mark long and 12 inch wide. I cant sit for very long, Cant walk for very long, the only pain releif I get is when I lie on my back with 2 pillows under my leg. I am hoping that this is enough information to answer the questionIs this normal,I realize normal is hard ro define.? What is causing this and since tww plastic surgeons cant give me a diagnosis what is it. and finally when if ever will it go away and what suggestions do you have for follow up care. The plastic surgeon says I can go in every couple of days and get a shot I APPERCIATE ANY INFO
