Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Ken Smart

Sourced directly from Dr. Ken Smart's social posts and replies.

Can I do chest muscle exercises after submuscular breast implants?
Dr. Smart advises refraining from direct chest muscle exercises after getting submuscular breast implants, as he believes the risks outweigh the benefits.
Is breast asymmetry common?
Yes, most patients have some degree of breast asymmetry, which is considered normal.
How long does swelling last after breast augmentation?
Residual swelling after breast augmentation is common even at 6-8 weeks post-op and typically resolves over the subsequent few weeks.
Do I need a tummy tuck after having children?
Not everyone needs a tummy tuck after having two children. Patient candidacy varies significantly, with some needing a tummy tuck after one pregnancy and others being good candidates for liposuction after four. This variability is attributed to genetics and luck.
Why are in-person consultations important for liposuction?
In-person consultations are very important, as seeing a patient in person greatly aids in determining if their skin will respond well to liposuction and tighten sufficiently.
What is 'Smartly Sculpted'?
'Smartly Sculpted' is a procedure offered by Dr. Smart, referring to high-definition liposuction.
Can young women who haven't had children need a breast lift and augmentation?
Yes, it is not uncommon for some young women who have not yet had children to require both a breast lift and augmentation to achieve the best results.
What is the biggest concern for patients considering abdominoplasty?
Dr. Smart notes that the appearance of the belly button is the primary factor that deters women from undergoing abdominoplasty.
Why is the belly button so critical in abdominoplasty?
Dr. Smart considers the belly button the most important factor in abdominoplasty because it is the most difficult to correct if not done well initially. Some belly buttons can be revised, but others cannot, emphasizing the importance of having it done correctly the first time.
What should I expect regarding my results compared to other patients?
One patient’s result does not guarantee another’s. If your body looks similar to a featured patient’s, you can expect a similar result, but if your body looks totally different, your result will be different. Factors such as different skin quality can affect the outcome.
What is a lower body lift?
A lower body lift is an abdominoplasty that extends all the way around the body, also lifting the butt.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$485

Payments

8

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Ken Smart received $485 across 8 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
