  7. I HAVE SURGERY NOV. 10TH...

I have surgery Nov. 10th (lift and implants) and down to 1-2 cigarettes a day, is it enough to quit 5 weeks prior?

Asked By:Rosemaddiesbaby

I used to smoke 10-15 a day, and thought I could stop at the 6 weeks mark, but it's been more difficult than I thought. I am now nervous that it's too late, now that I have been smoking 1-2 cigarettes a day since wednesday (that marked 6 weeks)

No, you should be find, but you should only be asking your surgeon about his/her opinion. No other opinion really matters.

I really want them to be firm and not flattened when I wear things. Should I get a breast lift with or without implants? (photo)
Casey Anderson, MD, FACS says:

Rounder, firmer and not flat kind of all point toward an implant. Natural tissue always likes to take on a natural shape after surgery.

Do I need a lift as I don't want the surgery to be a failure? (Photos)
Casey Anderson, MD, FACS says:

It appears as though you will likely get a nice result from augmentation alone. Some of this can depend on the size of implant chosen. This is really best determined by measurements and physical exam done in person.
