Yes your original breast size, the amount of tissue you have, the shape of your chest, and even your fold position all matter when considering a breast implant. The implant will create volume in addition to what your currently have. The placement of the implant and the implant type matter as well in terms of the profile, size, and implant brand. When you have a consultation with a surgeon they should consider your anatomy and create a tailored plan to your body and aesthetic look you are...

If you’re bothered by mild abdominal muscle separation (diastasis) and have a small amount of loose skin, a mini abdominoplasty can effectively address these concerns and provide a beautiful result. In many cases, the umbilicus (belly button) can remain attached while the surgeon tightens the skin and repairs the diastasis. Liposuction is not always necessary for this procedure, and it’s important to feel comfortable advocating for your preferences during your consultation.

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can understand from your question It is very normal to have excessively oily or dry skin after rhinoplasty surgery. I recommend using a gentle facial wash gel and moisturizer that is suitable for your face.
Best Regards!

We don’t “move fat.” Migration often means the fat was placed in the wrong plane or in unstable tissue. The correction plan might include lipo in those areas and proper grafting to stable gluteal layers. It’s fixable — but safely, strategically, and with imaging.

Breast reduction surgery has a high rate of patient satisfaction, mainly because it addresses the cause of a lot of the symptoms patients may be experiencing. In the United States, for insurance-based cases, surgeons will determine how much breast tissue they are going to remove based on your body surface area. By removing the weight of that tissue, we are aiming at alleviating symptoms such as: upper back pain, neck pain, headaches, shoulder grooving from bras, and rashes between or...

An in-person consultation would be needed to assure proper plan. Upon viewing the photo provided, it does appear that you may need lipoabdominoplasty. If you do lipo alone, you may risk having skin laxity that would leave you dissatisfied.

I have cared for several patients who previously underwent a breast reduction and later chose to have breast augmentation. It’s important to understand that an implant will behave differently than natural breast tissue, which is made up of a mix of fat, dense tissue, and glandular tissue. The implant helps restore lost volume and enhances fullness in the upper portion of the breast (upper pole). The final result will depend on several factors, including the type of implant used, the p...

Thank you for your question, and I’m truly glad to hear you’re on the other side of your ovarian tumor treatment. Concerns about “waiting too long” are very common, and the good news is that age alone is not the deciding factor. As long as you’re in good overall health, patients in their late 60s and beyond can be excellent candidates for facial rejuvenation.

From the limited angle of the photo you shared, it appears you may benefit from a deep plane facelift with platysmaplasty to addres...

This question is best answered by your surgeon who is most familiar with the details of your surgery and how you've been progressing through recovery. In general at three weeks post op you should be able to begin varying your sleeping positions. Sleeping on your side and supported by pillows may be more comfortable than laying flat which can put tension on your abdominal muscles, but you should be able to shift in bed as is comfortable.

Yes Botox can be used to improve nasal flaring. The treatment is done in the office with final results seen after two weeks. The product effects will fade gradually over three to four months. Always use an experienced injector.
