Breast Augmentation

The Effect of Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, technically known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman's breast using saline-filled or gel implants. By inserting an implant behind each breast, surgeons are able to increase a woman's bust line by one or more bra cup sizes.


The Breast Augmentation Procedure

The specifics of the Breast Augmentation procedure, as with all procedures vary from individual to individual.



Best Candidates for Breast Augmentation

The best candidates for breast augmentation surgery are:
  • Women who are physically healthy and emotionally stable with realistic expectations as to what the surgery can and cannot do
  • Women who feel their breast size is too small
  • Women who want a balanced pair of breasts


Risks

Risks and risk rates vary from patient to patient depending on a range of factors. No two people are alike. The risks listed below are possible risks associated with this type of surgery and are mentioned regardless of how remote the possibility:

Lack of implant permanence - surgical removal or replacement of the implants may be required to treat problems, including: deflation; the formation of scar tissue around the implant (capsular contracture), which may cause the breast to feel tight or hard; bleeding or infection. Increase or decrease in sensitivity of nipples or breast skin, occasionally permanent. Mammography requires a special technique.



Side Effects

Temporary pain.
Swelling, soreness. Change in nipple sensation


Breast Augmentation Recovery

Back to work: 3-5 days
More strenuous activity: 3-4 weeks
Fading of scars: several months to a year or more

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)



The Effect of Blepharoplasty

Also known as Eyelid surgery, this is a procedure that removes fat along with excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids, resulting in a more alert and youthful look.


The Blepharoplasty Procedure

Blepharoplasty can be performed on the upper or lower lids, or all four at the same time.



Best Candidates for Blepharoplasty

Men and women over the age of 35.

Risks

All surgery carries risk, and you should be fully aware of the medical risks associated with this procedure before you consent to surgery. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you during your consultation, and you are encouraged to ask questions if there is anything you do not understand.

It is your obligation to inform your surgeon of key medical information that may influence the outcome of your surgery or may increase the level of risk. These include medications you are taking, history of disease, medical complications, etc.

Risks and risk rates vary from patient to patient depending on a range of factors. No two people are alike. The risks listed below are possible risks associated with this type of surgery and are mentioned regardless of how remote the possibility:

Temporary blurred or double vision. Infection, bleeding. Swelling at the corners of the eyelids. Dry eyes. Formation of whiteheads. Slight asymmetry in healing or scarring. Difficulty in closing eyes completely (rarely permanent). Pulling down of the lower lids (may require further surgery). Blindness (extremely rare).

Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)

What is Abdoinoplasty?

Abdominoplasty is designed to firm and smooth the appearance of the abdomen.  The procedure removes excess skin and fat and may also tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. 

How is it done?

Abdominoplasty generally takes up to four hours.  The operation involves the use of a general anesthesia and a hospital stay of two to four days.   An ellipse of skin between the pubic bone and the navel is cut out and the skin is lifted. Once the excess skin is removed, the skin above the navel is pulled down and stretched toward the skin below the pubic bone and is stitched together.  Excess fat may be removed and underlying muscles tightened at the same time. In some cases the skin is pulled down over the original navel and a new hole is made for it to come through.  After surgery, bandages and drainage tubes are put in place to support proper healing.

Why is it done?

Excess fat or skin on the abdomen and lax abdominal muscles can occur after dramatic weight loss or pregnancy.  In cases where the problem does not respond to dieting or exercise, the only way to resolve the problem is surgical removal of excess skin.

Risks & complications

Complications are infrequent and usually minor. However, as with any surgery, there are risks.
  • General complications of surgery include blood loss and possible transfusion, blood clots in the legs (Deep Vein Thrombosis or DVT) and chest (Pulmonary Embolism), chest infection and reactions to anesthesia.
  • Poor healing which results in conspicuous scars may necessitate a second operation.
  • Tissue loss along portions of the incision and infection which require antibiotic and in some cases hospitalization is possible.
  • Accumulation of fluid under the skin may require additional outpatient visits.
  • Patients may experience numbness after surgery that can occasionally be permanent.
Risks can be reduced by following the surgeon's instructions before and after surgery.

Alternatives

The surgeon may discuss alternative approaches to the Abdominoplasty procedure.  Liposuction may be used alone to remove excess abdominal fat. However, the main alternative to Abdominoplasty is simply to leave the abdomen as is.

Candidate eligibility

The best candidates for Abdominoplasty are men and women who are in relatively good shape, but bothered by excess deposits of abdominal fat and skin that will not respond to diet or exercise. The surgery is particularly helpful to women who have finished bearing children, with abdominal muscles that have separated or weakened due to pregnancy.  The surgeon will make the final determination of each patient’s eligibility for the procedure after an examination and consultation with the patient.
