Doctor Q&A

Thanks for your question, a rhinoplasty can help to address both of your concerns! The bump, aka a dorsal hump, is caused by an overgrowth of bone and/or cartilage which can be finely shaved down or excised by your surgeon to achieve a smoother nasal dorsum. A plunging nasal tip is due to hyperactivity of depressor nasi septi muscle, which your surgeon can also target during the operation. Good luck!

With nose filler it can not fixed unfortunatly. Rhinoplasty woul both help for the split in the middle and for the tip as well.

Dear Monopolyjone,

based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello, thank you for your question and photos. It’s definitely possible to have a second breast reduction, and some people do pursue one but whether you personally are a good candidate depends on a few important medical and surgical factors. Given your history, this is something that needs careful evaluation by a board-certified plastic surgeon. You could be a candidate, especially with ongoing discomfort, but a second reduction carries higher risks than the first, so it requires a very i...

Dear Plucky

Great questions. From 38G you can go down to a C cup, and yes, you should be able to see the underside of your breasts after surgery. Whether you need a free nipple graft (FNG) depends on how much tissue is removed and your specific anatomy, especially the distance from sternal notch to your nipples.....most reductions to C don't require FNG, but your surgeon will assess this. Breastfeeding after reduction is possible but not guaranteed, and not at all possible with FNG. Armpit...

Thank you for your question. A free nipple graft may be recommended if your nipples need to be moved a long distance and your surgeon is concerned that a standard pedicle reduction would put the blood supply to the nipple at risk. Many surgeons can still achieve large reductions without a free nipple graft depending on your anatomy, skin quality, and nipple-to-fold distance, so this is a decision based on measurements, not cup size alone. Have an in-person examination with a board-certified...

Hello, thank you for your question. Yes, a breast lift and reduction can be performed. A 34C cup would be suitable for you. After this procedure, the sagging appearance will be gone, and the wrinkled appearance will be reduced.

Choosing an implant size/style is an important decision which is best made in concert with your surgeon. Ultimately, options are based on a number of factors including:
-Chest dimensions: This point is crucial as the width of your breasts defines the available "real estate" on which the foundation of your augmentation is built. This "foot print" is the absolute limit with which you are dealing. Too "large" is not so much the risk as too "wide." You cannot build a 3 acre mansion on a half...

Without photos to better understand your situation - but removing 400 grams for breast tissue included breast tissue, skin, glands etc in order to reduce the breasts down and skin was removed to tighten the breast envelope leaving you with smaller breasts and likely the anchor scar.
To get you back close to your original cup size - would be based off measurements of your current breast foot print - the base width, the skin pinch, the different distances of the nipple to fold, nipple to...

I can only comment on under the muscle. Most women ask for a natural look. For years I have placed the implant partly under the chest muscle and partly under the breast (dual plane). I have done this in over 7500 women. My patients tell me that they are told their results look very natural. In fairness, I guess you would have to ask a surgeon who had that kind of experience with subfascial. Either way, I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be...

Best way to correct this mild asymmetry would be augmentation of the smaller side with fat grafts. Good luck.

Since you have not provided any pictures and without being able to examine your abdomen in person, it is difficult to give a definite answer.In general, it’s often preferable to wait until you are finished having children before undergoing abdominal procedures, but this can vary depending on your individual circumstances.Liposuction itself does not cause stretch marks during a future pregnancy. Whether or not you develop stretch marks depends more on your skin quality, elasticity, and how m...

Thank you for your question.
Based on your concerns, you may be a suitable candidate for a neck lift to address the loose skin under your chin following liposuction.
A detailed evaluation can confirm the most appropriate and cost-effective approach for your goals.
I hope this helps.

It sounds like your sugeon may have discussed a fat transposition, which uses sutures to help reposition the orbital fat pads onto the bony rim in order to add volume to the bony rim and upper cheek. Depending on your exam, some surgeons may choose to reduce the fatty eye bags (instead of transposing) and add volume to the rim and cheek with a fat transfer from elsewhere in your body. This involves a separate harvest site to collect fat (similar to liposuction) and then the fat to the...

Thank you for sharing your photo.
From what can be seen, you may have mild skin laxity under the eyes, which could potentially be improved with a skin pinch procedure. However, a detailed in-person evaluation is essential to determine if this is the best option for you and to discuss expected results.
I hope this helps.

2-3 sessions mesotherapy can help with that look. As for now no eyelid surgery or botox and filler are needed.

One of the reasons for hollow appearance is bilateral eyelid ptosis, droopy eyelids. Correction of ptosis is going to improve but not entirely solve the problem, fat grafting is still going to be best option to improve it. However, you have to consult a new, board certified plastic or oculoplastic surgeon with more extensive experience in both procedures. Good luck.

Thank you for your question. From your photo and description, it appears there may be some residual laxity and early recurrence in the jowl area.
Based on this, you could be a suitable candidate for a facelift revision to further refine the contour.
I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. Based on your photo and description, there are signs of early cheek descent, more prominent nasolabial folds, and some fullness along the jawline.
A facelift can elevate the cheeks, improve jawline definition, and restore a more youthful facial contour, while helping to soften the folds. You would be a good candidate for a facelift. I hope this helps.

These are, unfortunately very limited photos for good evaluation. However, it appears that you may be a good candidate for lower face/neck lift and revision rhinoplasty. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in these procedures is recommended. Good luck.
