breast lift

Tonight I will be talking about:

- Do you think having a breast lift with 125cc implants will help give them more fullness and not make them bigger?

- Can you drink alcohol 2 days prior to having Mastopexy with Implants?

- Do you have to use drains when having a Tummy Tuck? I had one when I had a c section an they left it in for a few days and it killed me pulling it out

- How long does a Tummy Tuck with Liposuction to the Hips and Flanks take? I am scared of having a General Anaesthetic?

- Do we offer removal for a Lymphoma located on the face?

- Do we offer Breast Fillers?

- Does a Breast Lift include an Areolar Reduction?

- Do we offer surgical drainage of fluid retention after a liposuction? (Surgery was elsewhere)

- Apart from a Tummy Tuck, do we offer any other procedures for loose skin on the abdomen?

and anything else that crops up!

 I will talk about:

- How long prior to surgery do I need to stop smoking?

- Why don't we offer Liposuction to the Abdomen alone?

- Is it safe to have minor surgery when on Roaccutane (acne treatment) ?

- I have pain, should I see my GP or the Consultant who performed my surgery?

- Can we remove a cyst located on the upper lip?

- Do we offer warranties with our breast implants?

- Do we offer gastric band removal procedure ?

and anything else that crops up!

If you have had a cosmetic procedure and wish it could be undone, or if you are considering a cosmetic procedure but afraid you'll regret it, there are options for going back. There are options available if you don't love the outcome after most procedures. 

Implants and fillers can be changed, and it is possible to rework other cosmetic procedures. Brazilian butt lifts and other fat grafting shaping procedures can be treated with liposuction like techniques to go in reverse.  Trends in appearance are okay for fashion and makeup, but not ideal for aesthetic treatments, especially plastic surgery. 

Thinking through your procedure decisions and planning properly is the key to good outcomes. Carefully plan and think through your wishes and desires before getting a cosmetic procedure with tools like visual imaging and computer simulation to understand the results you might see.

It's always better to avoid an unwanted result than have to undo it, but there are ways to rework procedures, if not necessarily reverse. And be kind to your body tissues – perfect is the enemy of good.

Aesthetic breast surgery has made many advances to provide plastic surgeons and their patients more control over the results.  Capsular contracture is a classic problem with breast implants where the healing membrane around the implant distorts shape and symmetry and degrades softness.  This was once largely the result of silicone gel that leached out of intact implants.  Modern implants are low-bleed and factors like blood and biofilms (colonies of bacteria) on the surface of the implants are now thought to be the leading causes.  A number of developments help prevent capsular contracture including no-touch technique, bloodless dissection, use of antibiotic and antibacterial irrigation, among others.  The controversial role of incision selection is discussed by Dr. Bass and his guest expert, Dr. Jason Pozner from Boca Raton, Florida.   Mild capsular contracture can often be treated with ultrasound, non-invasively.  Moderate or severe capsular contracture requires surgical correction including capsulotomy (cutting the capsule), partial or total capsulectomy, implant exchange and sometimes change of plane from subglandular to submuscular implant placement.  Acellular dermal matrix materials like Alloderm or Stratice can also help reliably expand and maintain the implant pocket after capsular contracture.   

Techniques have advanced to help mastopexy or breast lift improve in degree and durability of correction.  One example is the use of artificial mesh to help support the breast tissue, minimizing weight and strain on the skin.  This is particularly useful in augmentation mastopexy where the breast is being lifted and increased in size using a breast implant.  This is often viewed as one of the most difficult  procedures in aesthetic plastic surgery.  Find out why by streaming the podcast.  Mastopexy incisions can be minimized in some cases but the larger and droopier the breast the more incisions will be needed. 

Breast reduction is sometimes performed with the addition of a breast implant. This seems paradoxical given the desire to reduce breast size but the implant can help in various ways to maintain breast shape.  Finally, fat grafting is being used in all breast surgery for correction of small features of breast shape that are not readily addressed in any other way.
