Answer Snippet
Mentor 400cc Moderate High Xtra Implants. 5’3 117lbs too big?
Simulation is the best answer
Jul 30, 2023
Implants are picked based on your body and the size of your chest and breast. A 400 cc implant in one person will not look the same as a 400 cc implant in someone else. The shape of the implant will make a difference, as will where the implant is placed (above or below the muscle).

The best way to give you an idea of what things will look like after surgery is using a simulation software such as Crisalix. Although not completely accurate, we find it gives patients the best idea of their…

Liposuction and face lift for 44 male. Interested in doing surgery in my 40s rather than later in
Deep plane necklift and facelift
Jul 30, 2023
The best option for addressing the fullness in your neck would be a deep plane necklift, together with some liposuction. You are unlikely to be happy if just liposuction is performed without addressing the deep structures.

This could be combined either with an extended deep plane necklift or a deep plane facelift to address the resulting skin excess.

For dealing with the hollowing under the eyes, my preference would still be to start with fat grafting, but importantly not an excessive…

Is the Terino Extended Anatomical Chin Implant really that wide?
Terino Square Style I
Jul 30, 2023
In men, my preference is to use Terino Square Chin Style I implants. I find the width in the front gives a more masculine look. I will not put in the extra large size implants however. I feel that very large implants put more pressure on the bone, and can lead to bone resorption and loss over time. In patient’s who desire a large sized chin implant, I prefer to use MedPor chin implants instead.
Does this scar look like the result of poorly done/overlapping stitches?
Closer Photographs are Needed
Jul 30, 2023
Based on these photographs, it appears that you have had a fairly good result following surgery. The severity of the gynecomastia prior to surgery also determines how extensive of a correction was required, and what needed to be done. Close up photographs would be required to better see the issue you are describing, and to see if anything such as a scar revision or a different revision surgery could be performed to further improve it.
32 y/o female considering a breast reduction – do I have enough tissue to remove 300 grams and ach
Bra Sizing is Very Inconsistent
Jul 30, 2023
Unfortunately, bra sizing is very inconsistent. Some women can go to three different stores, and leave with three different sized bras. As a result, many women may be wearing the wrong bra. We see this especially when the breasts are ptotic and drooping. Based on the photograph your breasts appear to be quite ptotic, but they appear to be smaller than a 32F. An in person assessment would be required to best determine how much tissue excess there is to see if a reduction or a lift is a better…
Is a Brazilian butt lift safe after butt implant removal? Do my chances of fat embolism go up due
Staged Approach
Jul 30, 2023
It would be reasonable to remove the implants and then perform a BBL, but this should not be done in one surgery. I would suggest removing the implants first and allowing things several months to settle, and then doing the BBL at a second stage. In your case there will be more scar tissue present, and precautions should be taken when performing a BBL. The safest way to perform a BBL would be under ultrasound guidance to ensure that no fat is placed into the muscle.
What are my options to remove possible capsular seroma/scar tissue after deep plane face & neck li
Waiting is best
Jul 30, 2023
Without knowing when your surgery was performed, I would suggest seeing your original surgeon back to see if anything can be done in the meantime. If a seroma is present, it can be aspirated or a small drain can be placed to help it to flatten out. If more time has passed and the issue is scar tissue, then the best option is to give things time to settle. Massage would likely be helpful to try to get the area to soften up. Sometimes ultrasound treatments or steroid injections can be of…
