Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Andrew T. Cohen
Sourced directly from Dr. Andrew T. Cohen's social posts and replies.
What is a 'FUPA' and how is it addressed?
Plastic surgeons don't typically use the term 'FUPA,' which stands for fat in the upper pelvic area, medically called the mons. Fat collection in the mons area covers the pelvic bone. Fat in the mons area can be removed via liposuction or surgically excised, and the skin can be lifted. The doctor includes liposuction of the mons area in every tummy tuck to achieve a flat appearance.
What is recovery like after microneedling?
Immediately after microneedling, skin feels tight and hot and appears red. Two weeks after, skin feels less dull, shiny, and smooth. Focus on hydration and non-irritating products during recovery. Avene Cyclophate is recommended for restoring the skin barrier and hydration.
What is Galaflex mesh and when is it used in breast lifts?
Galaflex mesh is an internal bra that dissolves in about 18 months, after which collagen ingrowth occurs. It helps give support to the tissue and has been preventative for capsular contraction. It's considered when a lift is performed and the patient wants a larger size but lacks good skin support. Internal support with Galaflex is used only when needed, and the decision to use mesh is discussed in about 50% of breast lift cases. The mesh helps maintain internal support after it dissolves and does not affect mammograms.
What should patients expect with a labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty stitches should be dissolvable for easier recovery. Patients should be offered the procedure under local or general anesthesia. The practice often uses local anesthesia, aided by Xanax, numbing cream, and laughing gas. Swelling is expected for four to six weeks after surgery. About a week away from work is needed.
What should patients expect with a tummy tuck?
Tummy tuck surgery typically takes around three hours, but the duration can vary based on the patient's size. Umbilical or ventral hernias found during the procedure are often repaired at the same time. Muscle tightening is a standard part of a tummy tuck. Patients have two pre-operative sessions to finalize the surgical plan and at least five post-operative visits. Recovery time is typically two to three weeks. Tummy tucks are performed under general anesthesia.
What should patients expect with lower blepharoplasty?
Lower blepharoplasty removes skin and fat and can be performed under local or general anesthesia. The doctor prefers to make the incision posteriorly inside the eyelid and closes it with fine, dissolvable stitches. The procedure smooths out the lower eyelids. The doctor repositions the canthus during the procedure and places a supportive stitch, called canthopexy, in the corner of the eye to prevent it from falling down.
What are the doctor's thoughts on anti-aging procedures and products?
Microneedling is considered a great anti-aging procedure. Over-exfoliating is discouraged as it can lead to hyperpigmentation. Eye creams are good for moisturizing and can contain retinol to stimulate collagen. Facelifts and neck lifts are excellent procedures when performed by the doctor, but are not suitable for all skin colors. Retinol works and is great, but there are stronger options like tretinoin.
