Abdominoplasty and Pregnancy

Boston Abdominoplasty specialist, Dr. Richard A. Moss returns to this week’s blog posting to discuss tummy tuck surgery and pregnancy. His previous posting dealt with breast augmentation and pregnancy. An important focus of Dr. Moss’ practice is that of mothers looking to improve their breasts and body after bearing children. In some instances, after having abdominoplasty and breast augmentation surgery, his patients remark that now their abdomens are flatter than before pregnancy and their breasts can nicely fill an unpadded bra.

Breast Implants and Pregnancy

During consultation, Boston breast augmentation surgeon, Richard A. Moss M.D. is often asked questions concerning breast implants and pregnancy. One group of patients is that of young women, who still have their child bearing years ahead. This group wants assurances that breast enhancement (another name for breast augmentation) surgery will not preclude their ability to have children and breast feed. The second group of patients is composed of women who have had children. These women are primarily looking to undo the unwanted after effects of pregnancy and breast feeding. Not only are they looking for advice from Dr. Moss on increasing the small size of their breasts, but some also have concerns about breast sag. As reality sets in their first question often is “How soon can I have breast augmentation surgery after child birth and breast feeding?”

Skin Care & Treatments with Laser and Other Energy Sources

Are you unhappy with ugly brown spots or broken capillaries on your face? Perhaps you find that fine mustache embarrassing?

Or maybe it’s those dreaded fine lines above your lips that so many women call us about. “My lipstick keeps bleeding into these lines!” they tell us. “I hate it!” they further emphasize. Or maybe you are one of the lucky callers who can wear a bikini, but are tired of the continual “bikini wax” treatments and are looking for something more permanent in the area of hair removal. Or maybe you would be delighted to just be able to wear some shorts without your legs screaming “spider veins, spider veins!” to anyone who happens to walk behind you.

Boston Breast Augmentation and Mastopexy Surgery

Dr. Richard A. Moss, Boston Breast Augmentation expert explains the surgical procedures available to women who are considering cosmetic surgery for their breasts. For some residents of Boston, breast augmentation surgery is the surgery that will most likely address their needs. For others, a breast lift, commonly referred to as mastopexy will better help them achieve the desired goals. Dr. Moss also addresses what would be considered realistic goals and expectations for patients considering breast implantation surgery and breast lift surgery.

Boston Rhinoplasty Specialist on Benefits of
Combination Rhinoplasty/Chin Implant Surgery

Rhinoplasty surgery is the facial surgery that Dr. Moss performs most frequently. For patients considering rhinoplasty, Boston Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Richard A. Moss suggests that patients also examine their chin. Rhinoplasty patients also find that the visual prominence of their nose is often affected by the weakness of their chin.

When someone has an aquiline nose, i.e., a nose that is downward turning like an eagle’s beak, together with a weak chin, correcting both problems can give a result that is very much better than could be achieved with either procedure alone. An example of a patient with this problem is shown below. This combined surgery is done as an outpatient basis under general anesthesia (you’re asleep) and takes about 2 1/4 hours to complete.
