Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Jacob Gerzenshtein,
Sourced directly from Dr. Jacob Gerzenshtein,'s social posts and replies.
What is the Mini Tummy Tuck indicated for?
The Mini Tummy Tuck procedure is indicated for addressing loose skin, particularly that which develops after pregnancy.
How does Dr. Gerzenshtein's practice help patients choose breast implant size?
During consultation, patients try on various implant inserts in a sizing bra. The patient's own breast tissue helps simulate the final surgical look by filling the back of the insert. The exact implant size chosen during this try-on process will be used in surgery.
Are the breast implant inserts used for sizing the same as the actual implants?
No, the inserts used for trying on are distinct from the actual implants surgically placed into the body.
How are breast implants placed during surgery?
During surgery, the back part of the actual implant is placed against the chest wall, and the patient's existing breast tissue covers the implant to achieve the desired aesthetic look.
Do breast implants rupture easily?
Breast implants do not rupture as easily as commonly believed.
What is the purpose of the post-operative compression band for breast implants?
The compression band is designed to push down implants, helping them settle into a natural resting position as they soften and drop.
Does the $5000 cost refer to the breast implants themselves or the full surgical fee?
The $5000 refers to the cost of a breast implant itself.
What does a Mommy Makeover entail and how long does it take?
A Mommy Makeover is a series of procedures tailored to individual patient needs, addressing changes after pregnancy such as loose skin on the abdomen and breasts, or breast involution. It can range from liposuction with breast augmentation to a complete tummy tuck with a breast lift and implants. The procedure duration varies from two to three hours up to six hours, depending on the specific combination of procedures. In some cases, it may need to be performed in two or three separate surgical stages.
What common body changes after pregnancy can a Mommy Makeover address?
After pregnancy, some women develop significant loose skin on their abdomen and/or breasts, while others may experience breast involution (shrinking) and loss of size. Not all women experience the same changes.
What are the benefits of local anesthesia for liposuction?
When liposuction is performed under local anesthesia, risks typically associated with general anesthesia are not present. This considerably reduces the risk of complications like heart attack, pulmonary failure, pneumonia, or developing a blood clot during surgery.
What are the common risks associated with liposuction?
While local anesthesia reduces risks associated with general anesthesia, some surgical risks remain the same. Infection is the most common risk associated with liposuction, with a documented rate of approximately 2.5% in medical literature, though the typical infection rate for liposuction is usually lower.
