CO - 61y.o. w/horrible breasts. My body is totally out of whack (fat torso w/thin arms, scrawny legs, no hips, small butt). After 55 my body has become steadily more freakish! I'd like a nice C cup. I have multiple drug & food sensitivities (dairy, soy, gluten) which cause eczema & muscle pain + some OA in my hands. Otherwise, I am fairly healthy. With my issues, is it likely that my body would reject implants? I also NEED a BBB=behemoth belly banish, a/k/a TT! (Dr. Vath in CO, are you there?)
Answer: Choosing the right surgeon to get the best outcome The anesthesiologist needs to know about the allergies as they will affect which drugs they use. You need medical clearance and a good surgeon. The rest can be accomplished.

Answer: Patient Candidacy for BA and TT Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty) is a plastic surgery procedure designed to flatten the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat, and to tighten the abdominal wall. Women and men who have excess skin and/or fat around the abdomen which does not respond to diet and exercise are candidates for abdominoplasty. Many patients complain that they cannot flatten their abdominal muscles through exercise, which also means a tummy tuck may be right for them. Abdominoplasty candidates have: excess abdominal skin which may sag, a disproportionate or protruding abdomen, weakened or separated abdominal muscles, excess fat concentrated in the abdomen. Other tummy tuck patients may recently have lost a lot of weight and need to have excess skin and tissue removed. Many women choose to have an abdominoplasty following pregnancy. Older patients may be candidates for a tummy tuck due to reduced skin elasticity, family traits, age, immobility.Candidates for #breastaugmentation and #breastlift have had a pregnancy; her breasts have either just deflated, or the skin has been stretched from pregnancy, and or breastfeeding. They may be in a lower position than she would like. By doing the breast lift, we can tighten the breast, tighten the breast skin, and put it into a more youthful position. Another category include patients who have had weight loss through either diet or surgical procedure. Many women will have breast deflation with #weightloss leading to #drooping or #ptosis.It would be a good idea to have a surgery consultation with a local board certified plastic surgeon to make sure that your food and drug sensitivities will not affect your specific desired procedures and results. There could be specific pre-procedure preparation treatment and post-op treatment to ensure that problems are avoided.

Answer: Allergies? Typically food and drug allergies are not an issue, many people have them and those specific allergens should just be avoided. From your pictures it looks like a breast lift, implants, and a tummy tuck (you possibly have a small umbilical hernia that could use a repair during the tummy tuck) look possible for you. Visit with a few BC PS in your area to learn more. Good luck

Answer: Breast cosmetic surgery, tummy tuck, food allergy Thank you for your email. 1. You need to organise a detailed consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon with special interest in body contouring. He will assess you for the suitability of your requested surgery. Once he is happy then he will send you for preanaesthetic assessment to deal with the issues you have raised. In general, food allergy does not contraindicate breast operation. I donot think that breast augmentation is a suitable operation as you possibly would need breast lift with or without breast implants. It would be a good idea to consider optimising your body mass index before any cosmetic surgery. With best wishes,
