Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Marc Elkowitz

Sourced directly from Dr. Marc Elkowitz's social posts and replies.

What factors are considered when choosing breast implants?
Dr. Elkowitz discusses and evaluates many factors with patients, including their preferences for size, shape, and positioning. Implants are available in two main types: saline and silicone, and come in various sizes, shapes, and textures.
What types of cosmetic breast operations does Dr. Elkowitz perform and what are their indications?
Dr. Elkowitz performs breast reduction for patients with breasts too large for their body, breast lifts for sagging breasts (common for mothers who have breastfed or patients with significant weight loss), and breast augmentation/implants for those desiring larger breasts (e.g., A to C cup). Breast implants can also aid in shaping with minimal scarring.
What is the typical recovery and process for liposuction?
Liposuction is generally an easy, simple, and quick recovery. Patients are typically in and out of the office in one day, mobile within a couple of days, and most can return to work within a week. Incisions are very small, and post-operative pain is usually very little, though patients typically experience bruising. The practice ensures patients are provided with everything necessary for a safe and speedy recovery before discharge.
What is the recovery process for rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty recovery varies; for procedures involving minor bone filing and tip work, recovery is a couple of days. If extensive bone work is needed, patients might experience a day or two of pain. A splint is typically applied for about 10 days, up to a maximum of two weeks.
What are the limitations of liposuction regarding skin, and who is an ideal candidate?
Liposuction's primary function is to remove fat underneath the skin and is not intended to treat skin directly. It is performed on patients with very good skin tone (hoping for some contraction) or no existing hanging skin, as liposuction on areas with pre-existing hanging skin can worsen it. While skin contraction can occasionally occur, it's not the procedure's primary expected outcome. For extra skin removal, other operations like a tummy tuck are designed for that purpose.
What are potential issues with Botox, and can they be corrected?
Botox can cause various issues, even when used correctly. If an eyebrow issue is caused by Botox, it is most likely correctable, and the correction would be temporary, lasting until the patient is ready for their next dose of Botox. Dr. Elkowitz believes he could likely fix such issues.
