Back Liposuction for Wedding Dress Fit

Q: I am on a workout regime but this area is giving me a hard time. I ā€˜m considering liposuction on my upper back (around my shoulder blades). Would that reduce my back fat to allow the zipper to close without appearing too tight?

A: Liposuction of the back bra roll and upper back is challenging, but possible. The most challenging part is managing expectations. While patients and surgeons both want the rolls in this area completely gone, this is typically not possible. Generally, you can expect a 60% improvement in this area, but most likely you will still have some residual roll – especially if you have excess skin in this area. Fat in this area is typically denser and more fibrous than fat in other areas and the back skin is firmly stuck to the tissues underneath. The other tricky issue with liposuction of the upper back is scar placement. I typically do not use incisions directly on the upper back because they would be visible when you wear backless tops, swimwear, etc. Patients with heavy back bra rolls with redundant skin may require excision of these rolls – generally this puts a visible scar in the middle of the back near the bra line. These are some of the options for you and your plastic surgeon to discuss.

A: Every plastic surgeon is different, but we offer 2 different external financing options in our office. Both require a credit check. We also offer our patients the ability to make payments. We require a $500 non-refundable deposit to schedule surgery and require payment in full prior to your procedure.

Is it possible I can put a certain amount down, and do payments for a Tummy Tuck or Liposuction ?

Every office and physician will likely have different policies. I offer a variety of payment options at my Atlanta area office and surgery center. I work with financing companies including Care Credit. I also allow patients to book surgery with a small deposit and make payments on their own schedule. Surgery is performed after payment is complete

How Long After the Initial Consultation Would a Potential Customer Receive a Quote? How Long is the Quote Good For?

Q: I have decided to get a mommy makeover to improve my body after two kids 5 and 3. I recently started a new job at a small company and this year I do not have any vacation time. I calculated that I should have enough time accrued for a total of seven days in August 2014. My intent is to find a ps by the end of the year and secure a time in August 2014 by putting down my deposit but not have the sugary until August . Is this possible or is it to far in in advance? How long is the quote good for?

A: Every office will vary in terms of its procedure. In my office, we provide a quote at the time of consultation which is good for 30 days. At the time you book surgery, you pay a non-refundable deposit of $500 which locks in your quoted price regardless of when your surgery takes place. We have many financing options available.

Hourglass Body Shape?

Hourglass Body Shape?

Q: I am 20 years old. I have been considering plastic surgery for some time now but I am afraid that i wont get the results I desire. I am a very pettite woman I weight 12o, and I am 5’3. I have very boyish hips, no bootie at all. I want an Hourglass shape with nice feminie hips and a Nice round butt. My question is would i be able to have wide feminie hips after? What kind of implants do you use for the butt area and what are the risks?

A: It’s a little hard to get a good view from your pictures, but based on what I see, I think you would be a good candidate for fat grafting to the butt and hips. I would perform liposuction on your midsection – abdomen, flanks and lower back – then use that harvested fat to fill out your butt and hips. I think you would have a great outcome! You could certainly consider butt implants (they are silicone), but that will not address your hips or midsection. The Brazilian Butt lift (fat grafting) is my preferred method to give an hourglass shape – it includes liposuction to address unwanted fat stores and gives a very natural look.

Will I Be Able to Do Workouts for my Butt (Squats, Lunges) Normally After Butt Implants?

Will I Be Able to Do Workouts for my Butt (Squats, Lunges) Normally After Butt Implants?

Q: Will I Be Able to Do Workouts for my Butt (Squats, Lunges) Normally After Butt Implants? Can It Also Get Bigger and Firmer?

A: After you have recovered, you can resume working out – including workouts for your butt. Talk to your surgeon about how long he or she would like you to wait. I caution my butt implant patients about avoiding heavy weights when working out their butts after surgery. My concern is that strenuous workouts could cause the implant pocket to expand and this could lead to shifting of the implant.
