Layout and Time Frame for Mummy Makeover?
Staging Procedures
Jan 31, 2023
This is a difficult question to answer without seeing you in person and knowing more about your medical history.
Massive weight loss patients are common in my practice. These patients usually require multiple stages to allow adequate time to heal and keep the surgeries shorter to decrease the chance of complication and the risk of a DVT/PE.
I would usually recommend starting with the trunk (tummy tuck vs fleur de lis tummy tuck vs belt lipectomy). This may or may not be grouped with…
Which procedures would help me achieve a bikini body? Getting different responses from providers.
Mommy Makeover
Jan 31, 2023
You have excess skin and fat of your abdomen and excess fat of your back. You also have breast ptosis (the nipple is below the optimal position on your breast mound).
I would recommend 360 liposuction, tummy tuck and breast lift. I think this would best address your concern.
Am I a candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Candidate for Mommy Makeover
Jan 31, 2023
From a physical examination standpoint you are a great candidate. You have excess abdominal skin and breast ptosis (droop). This is the perfect candidate for a mommy makeover surgery.
Your bilateral PEs are concerning as they put you at higher risk for DVT/PE after surgery. This requires workup from a thrombosis specialist. They will order tests to see if you have a congenital coagulopathy (inherited condition that makes you clot more often). Once they do a thorough workup they will make…
What are the BMI requirements to have a tummy tuck?
BMI Requirements
Jan 31, 2023
Every surgeon will have a slightly different cutoff. The longer the surgery, the more procedures done and the heavier the BMI the higher chances of complications after surgery. It is therefore best practice to keep your BMI under 30
My practice is to keep all procedures less than 6 hours and for mommy makeovers I require my patients to have a BMI of 30 or less. A breast lift with implants and liposuction/abdominoplasty usually takes 4-6 hours.
Do I need a breast lift or are implants sufficient?
Breast Augmentation (Lift vs no Lift)
Jan 15, 2023
Great question and you are indeed boarderline. Your nipples are positioned above your breast fold so you have no ptosis (droop). Usually this means that you do not need a lift. In your case however there is mild asymmetry with your breasts so I would probably use a donut incision (also called circumareolar incision). This will leave a hidden scar around your areola and allow me to place the implants while simultaneously raising the areola slightly and improving your symmetry.
I still have abdominal pain 5 years post tummy tuck, why?
Persistent Pain after Tummy Tuck
Jan 15, 2023
The feeling you describe “hot, tight, stretching” 5 years after tummy tuck is atypical.
Ask your surgeon if you had a rectus diastasis repair. This tightens the core and changes the way your trunk feels in certain positions but you usually get used to this and at 5 years it should not bother you.
Massages are unlikely to help 5 years after surgery and you do not necessarily need more surgery. I would suggest seeking a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to examine you in person as…
Interested in a breast fat transfer – can the Airsculpt method cause fat cells to die or become un
Fat Transfer
Jan 15, 2023
The principles of fat transfer or all the same. I cannot comment on the airsculpt method as I am not familiar with it but in general all fat transfer involves making tiny incisions to pass a liposuction cannula, suck out fat, process it to “purify it”, and then inject it into another area to improve volume and shape.
Adjunct technologies with liposuction either help “melt” the fat to make it easy to extract, or heat the collagen to offer additional contraction following fat removal.
The…
