Aesthetic Surgery Questions Answered
Carol asks…
Is there anything softer than silicon for breast implants?
I’m not really up to date with the latest in aesthetic-oriented surgery, especially the type focused on women, so I wanted to know if there’s a material that’s softer and more natural looking than silicon based implants. I heard something about a material called “gummy bear” but I’m not entirely sure about it. Any leads?
Chloe Adisson answers:
I didn’t think silicone implants were legal again. Huh. Well, i know the “safer” and “softer” implants are waterbased. I think the best would be saline because it is soft, and if you get into an accident, and it pops, it wont kill you like silicone will.
Sandra asks…
Can anyone recommend me a surgeon in Lafayette who gets me circumcised? Mostly for aesthetic reasons?
I wan t to get circumcised but I’m new in Lafayette and I’m looking for a surgeon who can perform the surgery according to what I want
Chloe Adisson answers:
How old are you? Circumcizion as an adult is strongly discouraged.
James asks…
What’s the best way to find a specialist in rhinoplasty?
I’m in Austin, TX and looking for a plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty. Are there any associations that “matter” more than others? For example, a friend said to only consult with surgeons who are members of the ADA; but many of the plastic surgeons I’ve found online aren’t, but there’s many who are members of the “American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery” and others similar to that. Do these matter? Are some “credentials” better than others, if so, which do I pay attention to? Thanks!
Chloe Adisson answers:
What you want to look for is a board certified plastic surgeon certified with the American Board of Plastic Surgery. A good surgeon will not just try to talk you into surgery for the sake of taking your money either. They will try to find out the reasons for your decision for a consultation and tell you all the risks and benefits of the surgery it’s self. Check with the ABPS for a certified surgeon in your area.
Jenny asks…
Is there a procedure, short of major jaw/dental surgery to fix a fairly pronounced under-bite?
I don’t experience any problems other than aesthetics. Has anyone here had the surgery? What was the expense,discomfort and recovery time? Were you pleased with the results?
Chloe Adisson answers:
My underbite was really bad in childhood, and orthodontia helped considerably (and might have helped more if I had done the things consistently as I was told).
But if you are an adult, then I’m pretty sure the surgery is the only option because that’s the only way to change the size of the mandible. I’m sure it hurts! After all, when I had an impacted tooth removed, that really hurt, too! But once the recovery is complete, you will probably be glad you did it.
Go for some consultations with surgeons in your area. Ask for references and if there are any patients whom you could discuss the experience with.
