ANSWER
I do not have my patients perform breast massage after surgery. I think the utility of massage is controversial. One recent study looking at risks of capsular contracture actually found that breast massage increased the risk of capsular contracture. Ultimately I would go with your plastic surgeon's recommendation.

ANSWER
PCOS itself you not preclude you from being a candidate for BBL surgery. I would require medical clearance from your primary care doctor or endocrinologist to make sure there aren't any other risk factors that would need to be addressed.

ANSWER
Under eye bags can be caused by a variety of factors. CO2 laser resurfacing will tighten and skin and possibly improve the texture, tone, and quality. If those are the issues contributing to your bags then the laser treatment can help. The laser won't do anything to address any bulging fat, but if the skin is tightened over the area then the fat may appear to bulge less.
