Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Barry M. Weintraub
Sourced directly from Dr. Barry M. Weintraub's social posts and replies.
What is the recovery process like after breast augmentation?
After breast augmentation, patients are placed in a surgical brassiere, which can be removed on day three. The incision, about one inch long, is closed with steristrips.
What is the recovery process like after fat transfer to the breast?
Post-operative recovery for fat transfer to the breast is simple. Patients wear a surgical brassiere for three days. After the bra is removed, patients may experience black and blue marks and swelling, but this dissipates quickly. Incisions are in the areola, minimizing visible marks.
What is the recovery process like after male breast reduction (gynecomastia)?
After surgery, patients wear a pre-ordered male vest. They return to the office three days later for vest removal and are typically happy with the results immediately. The vest should be worn for two to four weeks.
What is a tip lift, and how does it differ from a full rhinoplasty?
A tip lift involves manipulating cartilages at the tip of the nose to provide a more youthful appearance. Unlike a full rhinoplasty, it only addresses the tip cartilages, not the nasal bones. Recovery is relatively quick with very little downtime, and a nasal splint is not needed.
What is the recovery process like after a tip lift?
Tip lift surgery is performed from inside the nose. The nasal tip is supported by tapes for three days, sometimes with an additional three or four days.
What is involved in neck lift surgery?
Neck lift surgery involves removing fat and tightening neck muscles to sharpen the jawline. The skin is undermined, fat is removed, muscles are moved, and excess skin is trimmed. A circumferential headdressing is needed for about three days. Patients should have a visiting nurse for the first two nights after surgery and are typically ready for social activities about 10 days after.
What financing options are available for plastic surgery?
Financing companies like Alfion and Care Credit can help patients afford plastic surgery through small payments.
Why does Dr. Weintraub advise against getting plastic surgery in foreign countries?
Dr. Weintraub advises against getting plastic surgery in foreign countries because the equipment may not be inspected for sterility and function like in the United States.
What are Dr. Weintraub's views on facial fillers for patients aged 40-60?
Dr. Weintraub recommends that patients aged 40-60 avoid filling their face with fillers, as they can distort the face and make patients look unnatural. He believes fillers do not effectively lift the face and has observed excessive filler during facial surgeries.
What are Dr. Weintraub's views on liquid rhinoplasty?
Dr. Weintraub considers liquid rhinoplasty a trial run that provides no long-term solution, as the filler goes away and the nasal problem returns.
What is Ativa, and what does it treat?
Ativa is a non-surgical radiofrequency treatment for the face and body that provides visible results with little to no downtime. It can be used from head to toe, including brow lifts, jawline tightening, and butt lifts. It's a good pairing for people losing weight quickly.
How does Ativa work?
Ativa uses a cannula, similar to those used for dermal fillers, that is placed just underneath the skin. Radio frequency is used to cause a shrink-wrapping effect on the body, targeting deeper and more superficial structures. It combines mono and bipolar radio frequency.
