Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Abdominoplasty & breast lift just before Christmas?
Recovery post mummy makeover
Nov 14, 2018
Good luck with your upcoming operation.
At 4 weeks your wounds will still be quite fresh but you should be able to get into bathers at that stage – assuming no complications.
Bear in mind, it will still be early on and your shape will continue to improve/change over time so don’t buy too many new clothes/bathers until everything has settled.
Best of luck
Will the bulge 1 month after Mommy Makeover TT incision go down?
Mummy Makeover Recovery
Nov 14, 2018
Congratulations on your surgery.
From the photo you have posted it appears that your early results are very good and you should be pretty happy.
At 1 month it is still very early days and you should expect further improvement in your shape and appearance.
Be patient and keep in touch with your surgeon.
Congratulations again.
My breasts still don’t look ‘normal’ 3 months after surgery. How can I fix this? (photos
Double Bubble
Nov 14, 2018
I’m sorry to hear about your concerns. Looking at your photos I would agree that it appears that you have developed a double bubble deformity. This is a consequence of the natural IMF being released and the implants falling below that fold.
This may improve with time but it is likely that you will require further revision surgery. A potential solution may be fat grafting to soften the area of the old fold.
It would be best for you to keep in touch with your surgeon to discuss your concerns…
What breast lift type do I need?
Breast Lift
Nov 14, 2018
I would suggest a vertical scar (lollipop) breast lift with auto-augmentation of the upper pole utilising tissue from the lower pole of the breast. This will improve your upper pole fullness and shape. If you’d like, this can be combined with fat grafting to improve overall shape and volume.
From a costs point of view, prices can vary from 11 – 15k depending on insurance coverage.
Best of luck
I had a breast lift 2 weeks ago, I would like to know your opinion on my results?
Results!
Nov 14, 2018
Congratulations on your early results!
I am sure you will be very happy with your final results once everything settles.
Best of luck
Can a breast reduction revision (to correct excessive lower pole fullness) also make bre
Re-do Breast reduction
Nov 14, 2018
Yes, a re-do breast reduction can/will have the benefits of reducing your breast volume/size as well as improving the overall shape and position of your breasts.
Best of luck
Can capsular retraction occur almost immediately post op? 2 months post-op.
Recovery post breast reconstruction
Nov 14, 2018
I’m sorry to hear about your concerns. It certainly does not sound like your recovery is proceeding as planned and while capsular contracture can occur at any stage it is more likely that you have an issue with implant placement/pocket.
It would be best for you to contact your surgeon and discuss your options with them.
Best of luck.
