Today, we review the Top 10 Frequently Asked Questions about Breast Augmentation. These questions come from my patients and from inquiries on sites like the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

FAQs answered include:

Am I a good candidate for Breast Augmentation?

What types of Breast Implants are available?

How do I choose the right sized Breast Implant?

How long is recovery after Breast Augmentation?

While the Internet cannot substitute for an in-person consultation, my goal is to provide you with accurate general information about Breast Augmentation and provide some background for you, prior to a detailed consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.To read today's San Francisco Plastic Surgery Blog follow the link:

The Mommy Makeover remains one of the most commonly performed Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Procedure combinations in the San Francisco Bay Area. Today, on the San Francisco Plastic Surgery Blog, I answer the top 10 Mommy Makeover FAQs (frequently asked questions).

1 – What is a Mommy Makeover?

What is a Mommy Makeover? – The procedure is actually two procedures: one enhances the breasts while the other addresses the abdomen. Since both the belly and breasts are affected by pregnancy, this combination of repairs is coined the Mommy Makeover; however, the combination is also frequently used after weight loss for women and men (Daddy Do-over).

2 – Am I a Good Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

For the answer to this, and there rest of the Mommy Makeover top ten frequently asked questions, check out the San Francisco Plastic Surgery Blog:

More and more patients are using GLP-1 medications to successfully lose weight. The advantage of GLP-1 treatment is the ability to maintain weight loss and improve the associated medical conditions, like diabetes and hypertension, that can lead to complications. Since this class of drugs is relatively new, the risks are still being worked out.

Many patients seek body contouring procedures for loose skin after successful weight loss from GLP-1 treatment, therefore it is important to further examine these novel weight loss therapies. What are GLP-1 medications, and how do they affect cosmetic plastic surgery are what we will discuss today on the San Francisco Plastic Surgery Blog.
