I Can Finally Look in the Mirror Again: Regina’s Tummy Tuck Revision Experience

Episode 164

mardi 27 août 2024Duration 32:15

Regina had a nightmare experience after her first tummy tuck and liposuction with an unqualified surgeon elsewhere, landing in the hospital for two weeks with an abscess followed by home nursing, and then requiring a walker and cane to get around.

When it came time to fix the mess, she was understandably worried. LJCSC plastic surgeon Dr. Swistun removed her dog ears, tightened and smoothed out her skin, and redid her incisions to be barely noticeable.
 
She’s thrilled to finally be able to look in the mirror and not be reminded of all that baggage from the past.

Hear how she went about researching doctors for revision surgery after her experience, how she found Dr. Swistun, and how she knew he was the one.

The Six “WOW” Cosmetic Surgeries Women Always Wish They Did Sooner

Episode 155

mardi 25 juin 2024Duration 28:16

Regardless of your motivation, it’s totally normal to think about cosmetic procedures but not know how to get started. Plastic surgeon Dr. Diana Breister gives us an overview of the most popular body procedures for women.

Ideal body trends change over time, and so do our personal preferences. Women in their 20’s and 30’s tend to do liposuction and breast augmentation, while those in their 40’s and 50’s more often consider tummy tucks and breast lifts.

Plastic surgery isn’t just about feeling more confident in a bikini. It can be life-changing by improving all the concerns we face as women, from lingering effects of having children to changes in our bodies as we grow older.

It takes courage, timing, and planning to go through with surgery, but once you’re through recovery, you’ll feel accomplished, empowered, and may even wish you had done it sooner.

Swollen, Bloated, and Puffy with Kathleen Lisson

Episode 63

mardi 16 août 2022Duration 36:41

Lymphatic massage expert Kathleen Lisson explains the important role of your ~800 lymph nodes in post-op recovery. If the lymphatic system is disrupted or overwhelmed, which can occur with plastic surgery, lymphatic massage, or manual lymphatic drainage is often recommended to help with healing and recovery.

The lymphatic system is how your body processes and eliminates waste. Your immune system is part of the lymphatic system, so when a bacteria or virus enters your body, the lymphatic system produces immune cells to fight it.

Manual lymphatic drainage isn’t so much a massage as it is a gentle skin stretching movement that opens up the initial lymphatic capillary and encourages the interstitial fluid to enter into the lymphatic system where waste products, fluids, and bacterias are transported away and eliminated naturally.

Don’t miss Kathleen’s essential advice for anyone having plastic surgery. If you’re not in San Diego, you’ll want to hear her suggestions for getting your treatment covered by insurance and finding a qualified lymphatic massage therapist in your area.

Meet Kathleen Lisson, lymphedema therapist, board certified massage therapist, and author.

Revision Breast Augmentation with the Internal Bra Technique

Episode 62

mardi 9 août 2022Duration 20:30

If you’re disappointed that your breast implants are sagging or haven’t lasted as long as expected, the “internal bra” is a superb breast implant revision technique that uses GalaFLEX, a bioabsorbable mesh-like material to add support. Breast implants aren’t meant to last forever and at some point, our breasts sag.

It happens to all of us, and we inevitably won’t have our 20-year-old breasts in our 50s. If you’ve had implants for a while, the internal bra can be included in revision surgery to support those stretched tissues back up to where they once were. Plastic surgeon Dr. John Smoot joins us to explain what the internal bra is and how it works to create a scaffolding of thicker tissue to add strength.

Patient Taylor: Surprisingly Smaller Than Expected

Episode 61

mardi 2 août 2022Duration 28:05

Taylor’s least favorite body part has always been her arms. Working in the medical spa at La Jolla Cosmetic, Taylor knew there were a lot of ways to approach body contouring, including those arms. She had already lost 30 lbs, and plastic surgeon Dr. Swistun motivated her to lose 15 more to ensure successful results by showing her what she might look like using special imaging software called Vectra 3D.

After reaching her goal weight, Taylor moved ahead with surgery. Dr. Swistun sculpted her body with 360 lipo to her upper and lower back, full abdomen up to her bra line, arms, and thighs, followed by Renuvion to tighten everything up. Although she read about it in her pre-op booklet, Taylor was surprised to actually be that person who cries upon waking up from surgery.

But the biggest surprise for Taylor, even while still early in recovery, is how much smaller she is than she expected to be. She shares her “roller coaster of emotions” as her body changed through the stages of recovery, from waking up in the recovery room through the first weeks with her new body.

Patient Kathleen: How I Got Life Flighted To My Nose Job

Episode 60

mardi 26 juillet 2022Duration 32:56

For our patient Kathleen Lisson, an accident while hiking in the desert led to a broken nose, which led her straight to Dr. Brahme for a rhinoplasty… and while he was at it, a face lift, brow lift, neck lift, chin implant, fat transfer to her cheeks, and a septoplasty to fix her deviated septum. Not everyone seeks cosmetic surgery for aesthetic reasons; sometimes it’s necessary following an accident or injury.

For Kathleen, a freak accident while hiking in the desert was the catalyst that caused her to move forward with everything she’d been dreaming about. As a lymphedema therapist, Kathleen had seen the results of Dr. Brahme’s work while helping other plastic surgery patients who had seen him for facial rejuvenation. She always knew that if she decided to get any type of cosmetic surgery, he’d be the one she would trust to do it.

In this episode, Kathleen tells the crazy story of how she broke her nose and ended up getting her dream face at LJC. From her perspective as a patient and a trusted professional caring for other plastic surgery patients, you won’t want to miss her expert advice for a smooth recovery.

Breaking Down the Breast Implant Black Box Warning

Episode 59

jeudi 14 juillet 2022Duration 38:03

This year, the primary concern of women researching breast implants became safety instead of cost. LJC’s own Dr. Hector Salazar-Reyes joins us to share his thoughts on breast implant safety and walk us through the FDA’s updated labeling requirements, known as the “black box warning.”

With his unique perspective as a champion of patient safety, Dr. Salazar shares the real history of how patients, doctors, and industry teamed up to drive these important changes in patient education. If you’re considering breast augmentation surgery, you won’t want to miss this important conversation about what the “black box” warning includes, where you can read it, and what each of the guidelines means.


Read the “black box warning” for yourself here (heads up – there’s no black box, it’s just an ordinary box)

Episode 58

mardi 12 juillet 2022Duration 19:28

Corey Dylan from San Diego’s KFBG BIG FM 100.7, tells her story about doing Ultherapy for her face and neck. At 51, she felt like her cheeks were looking jowly and knew there was no way to reverse that with skin care products.

As a radio and tv professional, Corey chose Ultherapy because she knew it would allow her to be in and out of the office within a couple hours without anybody noticing she had anything done. Hear how she’s feeling and what changes she’s already noticing one week after her Ultherapy treatment.
