Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Will encouraging inflammation in the body increase chances of a great result after CoolSculpt
No, an inflammatory diet will not improve your CoolSculpting® results.
Sep 3, 2019
Anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen, naproxen and aspirin, among others, are typically not advised after CoolSculpting because they can thin the blood and cause bruising. Attempting to increase your body’s inflammatory response will not improve your results and could, in fact, be detrimental. Yes, some inflammation will naturally occur as a result of the treatment process, but you shouldn’t take extra measures to induce it. Instead, follow your provider’s aftercare instructions close...
What can be done to improve neck after neck lift?
Give your results more time to develop before considering a revision.
Sep 3, 2019
Hello. While you should be noticing significant results at five months after your neck lift, you’re still most likely not seeing your final result. For this reason, I wouldn’t recommend considering a revision procedure just yet. It is also difficult to pinpoint your concern from your photo. If you’re still unhappy with your results after several more months of continued healing, discuss your options with your plastic surgeon. In the meantime, using the proper skincare products and stayi...
19 but I look 30. What procedures would improve my old looking face?
You have excellent skin quality and aren’t a candidate for a facelift.
Sep 2, 2019
Hello, and thank you for sharing your question. Based on your photos, it appears that you have great skin quality—no signs of wrinkles, drooping skin or aging. And you do appear to look your age. I would certainly not recommend a facelift, as you have virtually no skin laxity to address at such a young age. While nonsurgical treatments like fillers are popular, you don’t appear to need them. You might consider starting with a customized skincare regimen that’s designed for your ski...
Can I fly back 4 hrs after neck lift (platysmaplasty) and liposuction (submental neck)? Air t
No, avoid flying immediately after your procedure.
Sep 2, 2019
I would not recommend that you fly for any length of time directly after a surgical procedure. First, the stress of flying could increase the risk of complications after your procedure, and you will likely not feel up to navigating the airport and getting on a plane directly afterward. Additionally, if you do have any complications, issues or specific questions in the first week or so after plastic surgery, you’ll want to be within a reasonable distance from your plastic surgeon’s office in ...
Is CoolSculpting an effective way to deal with bingo arms?
CoolSculpting® can effectively remove fat in this area, but will not address skin laxity.
Aug 29, 2019
Congratulations on your weight loss so far, and best of luck on your continued success. While CoolSculpting is commonly used to treat excess fat in the upper arms, this treatment may leave you with more loose skin that is not treatable using CoolSculpting. I would recommend sitting down with an experienced CoolSculpting provider to discuss your specific goals and create a customized treatment plan that will best align with those goals. There are nonsurgical skin tightening options available...
2 months post CO2 laser with deep chemical peel I got a sunburn. Will this cause further comp
Your skin shouldn’t sustain any permanent damage, but be sure to avoid the sun in the future.
Aug 29, 2019
Since it’s been two months or more since your laser treatment and peel, you shouldn’t notice any permanent pigmentation problems. However, as your doctor suggested, sun avoidance and proper sun protection is key to maintaining a healthy-looking complexion and not compromising your treatment results. Whenever possible, try to seek a shady spot when outdoors. Wear daily SPF and sun-protective clothing such as a hat and sunglasses when you are spending long periods of time outside. Directly aft...
Can you do Microneedling if you are using 20% Vitamin C+E+ Ferulic Acid serum in morning and
Avoid putting anything on your face after microneedling, unless instructed by your provider.
Aug 5, 2019
Great question, thanks for asking. The day of your microneedling treatment, your provider may ask that you do not use any products on your face, including makeup. He or she will likely cleanse your skin prior to beginning the treatment. Afterward, it is crucial that you do not put anything on your face, including cleansers or moisturizers, unless specifically directed by your provider. Microneedling creates tiny holes within your skin, allowing any product you apply afterward to penetrate...
