Would I benefit from a breast lift with lollipop scar for areola reduction revision?
Areola reduction
Jul 4, 2023
Hi Chloe, Thank you for the question and I am sorry to hear that you are not happy.Areolas can be enlarged due to a number of factors, and sometimes just reducing the size without addressing the primary cause might not give a stable solution.Without a proper consult and assessment I would not be able to give a proper advice, it seems that your surgeon came up with a plan. Make sure they are Specialist Plastic Surgeon that you can trust to give you a professional opinion. If they identified...
Should I see a plastic surgeon or consultant gynaecologist for a labiaplasty?
If you want a labiaplasty done you need a specialist Plastic Surgeon or Gynaecologist that specialises in this procedure
Feb 12, 2021
Hi, Thank your the question!You need to check that your specialist- Plastic Surgeon or Gynaecologist specialises in this type of procedure. It is not common knowledge and it is not taught in the basic training, it takes a particular interest and experience in dealing with numerous cases and possible variations and complications. Plastic Surgeons have frequently a reconstructive background that allows for a creative mind and a problem solving approach, but it takes an aesthetic preoccupation...
Do swollen legs increase the risk of DVT?
Tummy tuck dvt risk
Jun 30, 2019
Hello and thank you for the question!
It's very good that you are doing your homework before surgery, as DVT it's one of the risks associated with this operation.
If you have investigations and your doctors did not find a specific cause for swelling, they would also assess your DVT risk and advise you as to what it's adequate to prevent it, with stockings, pumps, and even medication that can reduce the risks. With appropriate assessment and advice you can then take the right...
Do you think I’ll need a tummy tuck too with my BBL?
Tummy tuck
Jun 30, 2019
Hello and thank you for the question!
I think you would benefit form a tummy tuck but if you want flat tummy you need to lose more of your visceral fat (inside your tummy). Otherwise it would be like a soft suitcase, we close it but it pushes through. All the best!!

My surgeon recommends lollipop lift and small implants. I don’t want big boobs. I want to go
Breast reduction
Jun 20, 2019
Hello and thank you for the question.
If you just want to be smaller a breast reduction operation with vertical lollipop technique will give you a lift in the nipple and a reduction in size.
You can also have some fat transfer to the upper pole, to increase the fullness.
Only if you want significant more projection you need implants.
Good luck!
Firmness around incision lines under breast is much more firm at 5 weeks. Surgeon says it's
Breast reduction recovery
Jun 16, 2019
Hello! Thank you for the question and sorry to hear that you are concerned.
It is still very early days, with a lot of swelling to resolve, scar tissue to form and then settle. I would appreciate that a good number of these "lumps" or firm areas will resolve by themselves.
However if you are concerned that the area it's getting worse, hot, swollen, painful, red, it might be a small collection or reaction to sutures. In this case you would be better to see your surgeon. Sometimes just...
Do I have enough skin for a tummy tuck?
Tummy tuck
Jun 16, 2019
Hello and thank you for the question!
It looks to me that you are the prefect candidate for a tummy tuck, you seem to have good quality tissues, muscle separation, tissue excess.
Sometimes you can have a small vertical scar for the initial location of the belly button, but you might not need that.
You need to find a certified Plastic Surgeon to perform the procedure.
Good luck!
