Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
My implants are low and falling into my arm, do I need a revision?
You need a multi faceted approach
Aug 10, 2019
Based on the photos  shown, you have lateral implant malposition, meaning your implants are too far out to the side and under your arm. The implant pocket was either made too big in the first place, or the implants have dissected their way out to that area. How long have you had your implants? Are they saline or silicon?  That makes a difference. Saline implants are much more likely to do this then cohesive silicone gel implants. You also have bottoming out of your implants. That means th…
Can this adhesion/bulge be removed with a C section scar revision?
Scar revision plus maybe a bit more…
Aug 8, 2019
This is a common problem with cesarean section scars. I have repaired very many of these over the years. What I have found is that a surgical scar revision is necessary, but often not quite sufficient. Sometimes a little bit of feathering liposuction  to smooth out the contour or even a little bit of fat grafting  to supplement areas that are quite thin  is very effective. However, as you expect, the core of the procedure really just depends on removing the scar elevating the surrounding su…
Don’t want large gap between boobs-any ways to minimize it?
You should definitely consider a composite breast augmentation
Aug 8, 2019
Your concern is a very common one. At the Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, one of the solutions we have found is to choose a suitable breast implant to suit your frame, your breast size, the composition of your breast parenchyma etc. However, once the implant is in, we routinely augment the cleavage area and sometimes even the upper pole of the breast using autologous fat transfer. That means we take fat from some area of your body, usually the abdomen or thighs, and use that fat to build up the…
Is it possible to find out if my doctor lied about the implant size used for my augmentation?
You and your surgeon have a trust issue
Nov 18, 2017
The information written on your implant card should accurately reflect what was actually done in the operating room.  If the implant stickers say the implants are 425cc, then that is probably what they are.Saline implants can be “overfilled” , but the maximum overfill range is usually about 50 cc.  Taking a 425cc implant up to 600cc would be a bit unusual, in my opinion.  Also, as the volume increases with overfilling, the base width of the implant decreases.  So while the volume in your…
Breast lift with Fat transfer, could this combination be an option?
It’s a great option!
Nov 17, 2017
Combining breast lift surgery with fat transfer is a great procedure. We do it all the time. Its best for people like you, who really do not want  breast implants. It’s important to know the back the volume transferred can never give you as much size as an implant would, but for many people that’s not an issue. It’s also important to understand that sometimes not all of the fat that gets transferred stays long term. It’s best to expect about a 10% to 20% decrease in size over time. …
I am 20 years old and I don’t think it’s normal. I believe their is a possibility that I have gynaec
No doubt about it!
Nov 16, 2017
After looking at your photographs, and looking at your overall body shape and size, it is pretty clear that you have bilateral gynecomastia. This is a very common problem and the surgical solution is simple. This is one of the most common operations we do at our clinic.  In fact, I did two cases today!Make sure that when you see a plastic surgeon, he or she is a well trained, board certified plastic surgeon who has experience in this area. If that’s the case, you are very likely to have a g…
Can you suggest me whether it is Gynecomastia or chest fat?
It’s both
Nov 16, 2017
In just about every case where a man is unhappy with the size and shape of his breasts, the culprit is both glandular breast issue AND  some excess fat. It is a rare case when it is only one or the other, and not both.The best way to figure out what proportion of each component you have is to see a well trained, experienced plastic surgeon.  At the time of the physical examination, he or she will be able to tell you how much gland and how much fat you have under the skin. Once that is de…
