Answer Snippet
Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck?
Y is for yes
Jan 18, 2017
Hi there, and thank you for your question,You would be an excellent candidate for a tummy tuck. I would recommend concurrent liposuction to assist in sculpting your sides.I would caution opting for a mini-tuck. You would be best served with a standard procedure. My preference is the high superior tension abdominoplasty, developed by Claude LeLouarn MD, the French wizard.I hope that helps, all the best,James
Breast lift scar 3 months post-op. Should I get checked?
3 month scar results
Nov 21, 2016
Thank you for your question.Young scars look exactly the way yours does. A scar matures over a 12 month period, during which time they fade from pink/red and sometimes raised to become a thin white line. Massage and topical silicone (ointment or dressings) help speed the process along.I hope that helps.All the best,James
I would like to have my abdominal apron removed.
Safe abdominal apron reduction
Nov 15, 2016
HI there,

Thank you for your question. It is not possible to quantify the amount of fat that can be safely removed in abdominoplasty surgery, rather we weigh what is removed after the event. More important is that enough abdominal skin is preserved to allow your wound to be closed. That said, I estimate that you could have 2-3kg of apron removed, and probably another 2-3kg removed by concurrent liposuction. The cost varies from city to city and from surgeon to surgeon but could cost …

Breast lift or augmentation?
Lift and or implants
Oct 23, 2016
Hi there Lizzy,I really appreciate your honesty about your breast related insecurity. Looking at your lovely curvaceous shape I would advise you to proceed with a lift + implants. The implant need not be enormous, but it will help immeasurably with breast shape, breast projection and in maintaining your great new look for years to come.Best of luck,James
Is it normal for my right boob to by flat on the bottom of it?
Flat breast
Jul 5, 2016
Hi there Jayde19,I concur with the comments made by my colleagues but would also suggest that, if your implants are teardrop in shape, then if may have rotated. If the upper pole of the implant is now occupied the lower pole of your breast, it can assume a flat appearance. Best to visit your surgeon.I hope this helps,James
Should my seroma be removed surgically?
Recurrent seroma
Jul 5, 2016
Hi there mis_tee75,Yours is a tough problem. Seromas usually respond to the aspirations you describe. Recurrent, recalcitrant seromas present a more difficult problem. I would agree with the course of management you have embarked upon but you may require the injection of a sclerosing agent into the cavity to allow it to seal up. Alternatively you may require an operation to open up the part of your scar adjacent the seroma for a formal de-cortication procedure. Either which way there is a…
Can my saggy, leaky, sensitive breast augmentation be fixed?
Revision breast surgery
Jun 15, 2016
Hi there and thank you for your question.Your breast shape and leaky implant problems can certainly be fixed, but the sensitive, itchy nipple may be a trickier proposition.I would recommend EITHER a breast lift and implant exchange into a new pocket using form stable silicone (gummie bear) implants OR a breast lift alone with removal of your implants altogether.The itchiness and sensitivity of your nipple is a different story. You should see your surgeon and undertake some imaging to exclude…
