Hey, I’m scheduled to have breast reduction surgery in 2 weeks. I have booked a long flight to Hong Kong in July. Just wondering if I will be safe to fly. I have a history of swollen feet and legs after long haul flights generally. Thanks

Hello and thank you for your question. Some patients will have dog ears or nubbins. Your surgeon can excise these and revise when you are healed. Usually between 6 months and a year. Reach out to your surgeon with your concerns. Best wishes!

Thank you for your pictures. It is impossible to diagnose this type of thing from a photo. I suggest you see your surgeon for an exam and possible biopsy of the area to be sure.Good luck!Dallas R. Buchanan, MD, FACSOwner & Board-Certified Plastic SurgeonVIVIFY plastic surgery
