Why so many varying opinions on exercise timing after Tummy Tuck?
Compression and exercise following Tummy Tuck
May 18, 2022
Thanks for your question! Plastic Surgeons often have different opinions about many topics, this being one of them. There isn’t really just one “correct” answer.In my practice, we recommend compression with a custom garment for one month post op. At that point they can discontinue it or wean off it for a period of 2 weeks.Also, light exercise can begin at one month (even light weights) but more vigorous exercise should wait until 6-8 weeks post op. Hope this helps!Dr. Nicolas HynesLotus…
Am I a candidate for implants (150-175cc) only or do I need a lift? Want natural look and no lolli
Implant vs. lift
Jan 10, 2022
Thanks for your question. While I can’t give specific advice by internet I can make some general comments. It really depends on the patient’s goals and expectations. An implant alone will definitely restore some fullness (although 150-175 cc is a very small implant). But it will not lift the nipple too much.A lift will elevate the nipple but will add to cost and will increase scarring significantly.If there is some drooping or sagging to the breasts then over the muscle is definitely…
I’m 5’2 weighing 105lbs – Will 415 be too large?
Breast augmentation size
Oct 6, 2021
Thanks for the question. The final decision regarding size rests with the patient but there are some limits and, of course, some advice that your plastic surgeon can give you.I commonly tell patients: “the bigger you go the faker you’ll look”. Now some patients don’t mind a “fake” look. Also it is mainly without clothing that they will look less natural. Clothing can hide a lot!If someone is an A cup and they are petite then, in my opinion, a 415 cc implant is on the large side. I think a…
255cc or 285cc moderate plus implants?
Breast augmentation size
Sep 5, 2021
Hello and thank you for your question! This is a very personal decision but I can give you some advice in general terms. First of all, you have chosen a fairly conservative size which is perfect for your dimensions. Secondly, there is not a huge difference between 255 and 285cc. It is literally 2 tablespoons. Thirdly, as a rule of thumb, if deciding between 2 implant sizes that are close together, nearly always best to go with the larger one. More women wish they had gone bigger than smaller…
Dent in lower stomach below belly button. Can this be fixed?
Dent in lower stomach
Apr 24, 2021
Thank you for your question. While it is not possible to give specific advice based on one photo, I can tell you that a tummy tuck or mini-tummy tuck will release any “tethered” skin from previous procedures and remove it. So, yes, indentations in the lower abdomen can be corrected. Hope this helps!Dr. Nicolas Hynes
What preop care do you recommend?
Bra following breast augmentation
Feb 16, 2021
Thank you for your question. There is no right answer to this – most plastic surgeons (including me) have a particular preference. In my opinion, I have made a custom pocket for the implant and I don’t want an external garment to push things where I don’t want them. I also do the surgery with cautery and under direct visualization so bleeding and swelling are not big issues.Therefore I use no bra at all initially, just the dressings and a loose top. I see patients 5 or 6 days postop and at…
Sagging 36A to a D, how many CCs?
Breast augmentation
Jan 13, 2021
Thank you for your question. There are several ways to help to choose size. Patients can use dry rice in sandwich baggies placed inside a non-padded bra under a tight T-shirt. Once you see the size you like, you can measure the rice in a Pyrex measuring cup that you use for cooking. The cc’c or ml’s you read off the side of the measuring cup is one way of determining the size you would like.Most plastic surgeons have sizers in the office that you can try on to help make the decision.Some…
