Lipo Recovery: Why It's Different for Everyone

This week on Lipstick and Lipo we're answering one of your questions about lipo recovery. As our name states, we use lipo consistently in our practices. Now, there are differing opinions about healing, and like many things, it's super personal. Every person has a different pain tolerance, and that's something that's really hard to compare. Even though the incisions are small, lipo is still something major don't assume you'll be back at work the next day. We're going through what recovery actually looks like, what affects it, and how we set our patients up to heal well. Highlights: * The misconception small incisions create: this isn't a "lunchtime" procedure. * Why bruising and swelling are completely normal no matter who your surgeon is. * Pain tolerance is personal why some patients bounce back fast and others need more time. * The supplements that can make your bruising worse. * How anxiety plays into what you feel during recovery. * Why good skin quality matters for your final result.

Celebrities Rejecting Plastic Surgery - The Anti-Botox Movement

Breast implants under or over the muscle? Will you have a choice?

We recently received a comment from a viewer who had breast implants placed without being given a choice or explanation about placement options. This sparked an important conversation about patient communication. We discuss why placement matters, the differences between over and under the muscle, how the industry has evolved, and why your surgeon needs to explain your options before surgery. You need to understand the why behind every decision before you go into surgery. What you'll learn: * The difference between implants over the muscle and under the muscle. * How implant technology has changed surgeon approaches. * Why some surgeons only do one technique versus offering options. * How new implant companies are changing the industry. * When it's appropriate to switch placement (and when it's not). * Why communication with your surgeon matters before surgery. * Questions you should be asking before implant surgery. Surgery is a big deal and you have every right to know what's going on. Do your research, ask questions, and make sure your surgeon is explaining your options. If they're not willing to discuss this with you, you have every right to go somewhere else.
