It's R U OK Day. A simple conversation can be the first step in helping someone through a difficult time. You don't need to have the right words, just the willingness to ask, listen and check in.

Reach out to someone today, and remember it's a conversation worth having any day of the year.

Here's what a ruptured implant actually looks like, and how a rupture happens in the first place.

Loose neck skin can show up in your 40s, 50s or 60s, and it's caused by more than just age. Skin laxity, platysma muscle bands, under-chin fullness, jowls, weight changes and genetics can all play a part. Age alone doesn't decide the right procedure, what's actually causing the concern does. Some patients need a neck-focused option, others need the neck and lower face treated together.

Breast implant illness isn't an officially recognised medical diagnosis, but it's a real, widely reported experience among some patients with breast implants.

Symptoms commonly reported include fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, hair loss and skin issues. If any of this sounds familiar, here's what your next step should actually be.

Recovery after an abdominoplasty comes with its own rules. Swelling, drains, limited movement, and a timeline that looks different for everyone. Knowing what to expect in the weeks after surgery makes the recovery period far easier to manage.

Gynecomastia isn't always about weight. It can be caused by a hormonal imbalance, genetics, obesity, or certain underlying health conditions, and in some cases, it develops as a side effect of medications such as steroids, anti-anxiety medication, or treatments for heart conditions and epilepsy.

Understanding the underlying cause is an important part of working out the right treatment approach, which is why this is usually explored in detail during an initial consultation with Dr Kernohan.

Fat transfer to the breasts is an alternative to implants, using fat taken from other areas of the body and grafted into the breasts. It's not a replacement for implants in every case, results are more subtle, typically half to one cup size per treatment, and suitability depends on factors like body fat levels and overall health. For smaller increases or correcting asymmetry, it can be a good option. For larger augmentation, implants usually remain the better fit.

Preferences around breast implants often change over time, whether it's physical discomfort, concerns like capsular contracture, or simply a shift in what feels right.

Removing the implants alone can leave breasts looking flat, with loose or excess skin left behind. A lift performed at the same time addresses this, removing excess skin and reshaping the breast tissue so results still look natural.

It's less about reversing a past decision and more about adapting to where you are now.
