Cosmetic And Plastic Surgery

Answered by Dr. Ashish Khare

Over time, repetitive lip pulling may lead to skin laxity, causing a less firm appearance in the lower lip. This occurs as the skin loses elasticity, often due to factors like aging or repetitive strain. Solutions may include lip fillers for volume restoration, laser treatments to tighten skin, or surgical options for significant changes. It’s essential to discuss these with a qualified plastic surgeon who can evaluate your specific situation.

Hi. I am 46 years old mother of 2 children aged 13 and 4yrs. In September 2021 I got liposuction and tummy tuck done. After 6 weeks of wearing the prescribed compression garments and daily massages post surgery, I started noticing big, hard eruptions on my stomach area. Some are red and some are very painful. The doctor punctured one of the eruptions to see if any fluid came out but it did not. He then ask me to use Tbac and put me on anti inflammatory medicine+ flexon. Then one day from the eruption i noticed a pus like fluid. Went to the doctor again. A pus culture was done. No bacteria found. Doctor said looks like it is a suture issue with my body not being able to get rid of the dissolvable stitches. He gave me tricort injections on the hard lumps. Now almost 3 weeks later, some are better but new large and painful ones have also formed. Please advise your thoughts on this and what you feel could be wrong. I am very worried.

I think it's still 2 months post surgery. There could be inflammatory reaction because of the sutures. It is possible so we need to see the pictures to evaluate it correctly and I think most of the times they dissolve by themselves. If there's no fever or any other issues, just you can wait for some more time for body to respond to the inflammatory reaction though active intervention is required.

Right now you can share the picture so that we can evaluate it better. still it's just 2 months old we would prefer to wait and watch. You can also visit best plastic surgeon in India for exact treatment.

Height is typically inherited from relatives. Magnets lack ability to make you taller. Some falsely claim magnets aid growth, but this isn't accurate. Eating nutritious foods, exercising frequently, and sleeping sufficiently contribute to reaching your maximum potential height.

Can cartilage move after rhinoplasty?

Male | 44

While the cartilage itself does not move, its position may be adjusted during the surgical procedure. The term 'cartilage moving' might more accurately refer to the settling or adaptation of the reshaped cartilage to its new configuration. The healing process involves tissue stabilization.

You can stop using a BBL pillow after two weeks of your Brazilian Butt Lift surgery. However, your surgeon will give you specific instructions based on your individual case, which you should follow carefully to ensure optimal results. Remember to avoid sitting or lying directly on your buttocks for a few weeks after the surgery.
