Life changing lip lift after rhinoplasty made me aware of my 'philtrum space'

18 hours post-op of my Lip Lift and couldn't be more thrilled. I found Dr. Turowski via tremendous research the past year. I will post pictures thru my journey :) 13 months ago, I had a tip rhinoplasty (different doc). That surgery made me acutely aware of my "philatrum space" about 17mm. I would try fillers and Botox lip lifts to correct this, to no avail because the distance was the issue....

Dr. Sood is a true master in his craft!

I had explant/enbloc, lift and fat transfer with Dr. Sood one year ago. He is truly amazing at his craft, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I was so nervous and Dr. Sood and Laura, the BII Advocate, made me feel so comfortable, after answering all of my questions and reassuring me that I’m making the best decisions for my health. Dr. Sood basically had to reconstruct once the...

En bloc capsulectomy, fat transfer and lift - BII symptoms

Dr Sood is not only an amazing, articulate surgeon but also has the most amazing bedside manner. He immediately makes you feel at ease and comfortable. I came to him for en bloc capsulectomy, fat transfer and lift. He never once made me feel crazy when discussing my BII symptoms. He believes and supports every single one of his patients. When paired with patient advocate and power house Laura...

Would recommend for top surgery

Great provider. Total cost of both the hospital and surgery itself was around $69k but my insurance (BCBS) covered most of it. The surgery itself went well and had no complications. Scheduling the consults and subsequent surgery date was easy as well, and I felt affirmed throughout the process. Dr Sood and his team are attentive and we’re super easy to get ahold of with any questions that I h...

Q: Is there a difference in scarring when getting a transaxillary or a inframmary incision?
Answered by Dr. TurowskiApril 21, 2024

A: I do not think there s any more risk /discomfort with armpit incision and you have a real benefit of not having ugly scar on you breasts, For me it is a no brainer why to have ugly scar (yes it will be there no matter what they say) to show on your underboob if you can have none.... I think a lot of surgeons are against transaxillary breast augmentation because they do not feel comfortable performing it or they even never tried or got train in performing it. I learned how to safely and successfully perform this type of breast augmentation over 25 years ago. Since then I augmented many thousands of breasts this way and this is my experience: it is my preferred way to do it (for a right candidate) my main reason is: why mutilate perfect beautiful woman's body if you can avoid it? And there is really no downside, it is not true that are more complications, problems or capsular contractures than with any other way to do it. If surgeon is skilled and knows how to perform axillary breast augmentation results are very predictable. I would not be repeating this procedure for over 25 years if it would be causing problems. It would be insane since I sometimes have 10 patients /week and would ha to deal with a lot of unhappy women... And do not trust surgeons who tell you under the breast incision is great. Frequently, they are quite visible, stretched, dark, keloidal and quite annoying. Especially in small breasts that have no folds make these scars impossible to hide. Last time I performed inframammary incision is over 20 years ago. There is no need for that. Armpit incisions ALWAYS heal great, and they are either invisible or look like a wrinkle in your armpit. And in my experience problems that people are describing are if anything less common that with other approaches.

Q: Excessive sweating after transaxillary BA
Answered by Dr. TurowskiApril 21, 2024

A: I have been performing axillary breast augmentations for over 25 years And never heard about this problem. It is most likely not related since if anything you probably lose some sweat glands (good thing)
