Hello and thank you for your question. A physical examination would be needed; however, it could be bony brow prominence that is a factor of genetics and a very normal anatomical variation. If you wish to address it, I would consult with facial plastic surgeon who could discuss your nonsurgical and surgical options and the risks and benefits of the options. Best of luck to you.

Recently I have noticed two raised bumps right above my eyebrows. I'm unsure if this is my brow being very prominent or if its anything else. They look odd, and I have been looking at other people and don't see anyone else with this raised brow. It is very noticeable in pictures where a flash is used and makes me very self conscious. I seek advice and help of what can be done to get rid of these, and if someone can explain. I am a 20 year old male. I don't know how long this has been there, thanks!

Facelift

Hello and thank you for your question. Every plastic surgeon will have a preference for their scar care - I personally use a scar tape for at least 3 months postop for all patients and this has given the most reliable, best results for my patients. If a patient cannot tolerate the tape adhesive we recommend switching to silicone tape. To answer your question, the tape can be "fiddly" in the sense that removal and reapplication can be bothersome as the tape can stick to itself, get lint on it, or get wrinkles in it and it can be a pain to clean and keep straight. When you are postop it isn't as convenient or easy as just applying a silicone gel. I have found that, anecdotally, the tape provides for better results; however, any scar product that a patient is going to use is better than none and if a patient won't or can't use the tape, the gel is preferable. You can discuss options with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck!

I'm booked to get a mummy makeover and planning for post op. There are so many scar treatment recommendations and I'm baffled! I've heard the tape is supposed to be better but that it's also really fiddly and people give up and move to the gel. Any recommendations appreciated!

Silicone strips v silicone gel to reduce scars post op? And why do people say the tape is too fiddly?

Mommy Makeover

Hello and thank you for your question. I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues in this area. The short term and simplest solution is keeping that area as clean and dry as possible. Seeing a dermatologist or your primary care for any antifungal treatment needed would also be helpful. If you are seeking a surgical solution, I would consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Depending on your examination and consultation, they may recommend skin removal surgery (either insurance or cosmetic). They can discuss the risks and benefits of both surgical and nonsurgical options for you to help you make a decision that fits your needs. Best of luck to you!

Tummy Tuck

Hello and thank you for your question. It is good to hear that otherwise your healing has gone well. I would first off recommend that you request to be seen in the next few weeks so that your plastic surgeon can examine you - they, having performed your surgery, may have more insight to the lump based on the location and how the area feels and what was done during the surgery. It could be a deeper layer suture or an area of fat. If the area is painless and the appearance of the overlying skin is normal that is reassuring; however, your surgeon should be able to provide more insight. Best of luck to you!

I am 3 months post op from a tummy tuck. My healing has been textbook, but I have this little hard lump under my incision just over my pubic area. I noticed it by month 2 and now that the swelling is decreasing every day, it's actually visible. It does not hurt at all and feels like one of those little bouncy balls from a vending machine. Could it be scar tissue? Should it be going away by 3 months?

Hard lump under incision? Could it be scar tissue? Should it be going away by 3 months?

Hello and thank you for your question. Your incision appears to be healing very well. If you are able to gently, and with clean hands and a clean tweezer, encourage the hairs out of the incision without disturbing the incision you may do so safely. 

Hi Just noticed 2 strands of hair are in wound. I am not near the doctor, but have emailed him for advice. What should I do? Cut the hair at the root, try and pull out the strands, wait to go I go to Australia and get my doctor to look at it. The op was 3 weeks ago and ditches removed 2 weeks ago. Wounds have healed very nicely and happy with the results. Any advice would be appreciated Thanks

This is actually a review of Jessica. She was my injector and I couldn't be happier. 
I decided on this office, even though it was an hour away, because of the stellar reviews on here. 
I am so glad I did! 
Jessica and I hit it off right from the start. She got a bead on who I was as a person immediately which made our interaction so easy. One of the things that stood out for me was her honesty. When I told her what I was looking for, in my case problems around my mouth, she told me she could make it look better with a combo of filler and botox, but it the lines would not go away completely. I found this honesty to be refreshing. 
My results were wonderful. Very subtle, but I have had a few people say "what is different?" "you look great, you are aging backwards". 
But no one knew what was different. 
The staff are all wonderful and I will absolutely be returning for touch ups and continued botox. 
 
Thank you Jessica!

I recently had my surgery on September 30th with Dr. Z, and I can honestly say the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Dr. Z and his incredible team treated me like family, with kindness, compassion, and genuine care every step of the way. The staff at the location were just as wonderful, making me feel completely comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. Everything was explained clearly, and I always felt confident that I was in the best hands. My results are absolutely amazing, and I couldn’t be happier! Dr. Z is not only a talented surgeon but someone who truly cares about his patients and their well-being. I’m beyond grateful for the outstanding care and beautiful results!

Highly Recommend

From the minute we had the consultation I knew Dr. Z would be the one. Dr. Z and his team made everything feel so effortless, they made sure I had all the information needed, and just made the whole process feel comfortable and easy. I am now 1 month post op from a tummy tuck and back lipo and the results surpassed my expectations. I can’t stop looking at myself in the mirror. Thank you so much Dr. Z!!!!!!!

Amazing Experience and Results

I would highly recommend Dr. Zienowicz! During my rhinoplasty consultation, he listened to my concerns and walked me through the entire process. At my first post op appointment I was speechless! His work is nothing short of amazing. Today was my two week post op appointment, and I’m pretty much healed and minimally swollen. All of his staff is polite and kind and it was a pleasure to work with them as well. They also walked through the entire process from the initial consultation, to the pre and post op appointments. I would definitely recommend Dr. Z to anyone looking for cosmetic surgery. This was a procedure that I researched for a long time and so happy I made the decision to go with Dr. Z. I’m looking forward to my next procedure! Thank you to Dr. Z and his staff!!

Amazing Results!

I am a little over 3 months post op from my brachioplasty and I’m so happy with the results! I follow so many groups on social media of people who have done the same procedure and I think my arms and scars are the best looking by far! Thank you Dr Z!

Thrilled with my Results!

Absolutely amazing. I went on 11/11 to get my surgery done and I felt so comfortable. My results were incredible and he even found a uterine fibroid the size of a half apple deep inside which explains a lot that was going on with my stomach and periods. He is the most amazing surgeon and just a very kind, caring person. I can't wait to go back to finish my other surgery and I will going back for more. From my consultation to surgery, everyone that works there is so nice, kind and helpful. Highly recommend, I won't ever go elsewhere. I have never been to a place where they make you feel like family as soon as you arrive, plus the office is spotless and gorgeous.

My results were incredible - highly recommend

I recently underwent breast augmentation with Dr.Z and I cannot express how thrilled I am with the results! From the very first consultation, Dr. Z made me feel comfortable and understood my goals perfectly. 
 
The surgery itself went smoothly, and the recovery process was surprisingly quick, thanks to Dr. Z’s expert technique and guidance. The results are nothing short of transformative; my confidence has soared, and I finally feel like I have the figure I’ve always wanted. The natural look and feel of the implants exceeded my expectations. 
 
I highly recommend Dr. Z to anyone considering breast augmentation. His expertise and dedication to achieving beautiful results truly sets him apart!

The natural look and feel of the implants exceeded my expectations

Dr Z did my tummy tuck with muscle repair as well as a breast lift and reduction. He made me feel at ease from my first appointment. I did have some issues with the drains and a couple of spots that took a little longer to close and they always for me in right away to address whatever issues arise. Something that you don’t get when you travel to another state or country.  I’m 6 months post op now and feel and look amazing. It has done wonders for my confidence!

Confidence Restored!

Dr.Z made my chin lipo procedure so easy and comfortable. The whole experience was not even an hour from start to finish and the nursing staff was equally amazing! I was nervous but the moment I got there all my worries and nerves left! My results are amazing and it’s the best thing I have ever done for myself

My results are amazing - it’s the best thing I have ever done for myself

Dr Z is amazing. I had facial surgery with fat transfer. No bruising very minimal pain. Results are great 4 months out. Still healing. 
Staff at the office are great . I have never had a bad experience. The entire office is willing to go above and beyond. 
Highly recommended.

Results are great 4 months out

After thinking about doing a breast aug and abdominal lipo for over a decade, I finally decided to book an appointment. I'm 31 and have had one child. My breasts were in good shape before, so I didn't need to do a lift. I was debating doing 285 vs 255 cc (using the Sentra Silicone implant) and decided to do 285cc. Overall, I am really happy with my results. The recovery stages can be rough, between swelling and waiting for the implants to fluff and settle, but now that they are closer to the final result I am SO happy. I wanted a natural-looking result, and the implants definitely fit my frame well. The breast implant recovery was fairly easy, but the lipo recovery was more painful than I had anticipated. 
 
Dr Z and his staff were wonderful, and I appreciated their 3D visualization technology in the office to help figure out implant sizing. I'm really happy I chose them and got the armpit/transaxillary incision since the scarring is really minimal. It was obnoxious not having mobility in my arms the first couple of weeks while healing, but I'm glad I don't have to worry about noticeable scars.
