Becoming attractive with surgeries
Facial ImplantsIt’s possible with plastic surgery to look attractive and very beautiful as a man, if you’re really not attractive at all and all people find you « ugly »? Its possible with surgeries to look very younger like 19 years old and attractive even at 27 years old? Thank you

Should I consult and consider it?
Breast AugmentationI was born with Turner's syndrome; No ovaries and missing one of my X chromosomes. due to no hormones, I developed VERY minimal breast tissue. I started hormone replacement at 13. I have been losing weight over the last 2 years and have become more aware of really how little breast tissue I have. I know the concerns but need opinions. I want to feel better. Just a C cup.
What is poking through my nostril??
RhinoplastyI had rhinoplasty and septoplasty in August of 2019. Now I have a hard lump in my nostril near the center. I know a lot of cartiledge was used to reshape the tip, but is this a piece of it poking through? It’s hard and annoying while getting more painful by the day. Not unbearable but just tender.
Is there a way to get details on what happened during my surgery, post op?
LiposuctionRecently, I had Lipo 360 and Renuvion completed on my abs, flanks, and back. It occurred to me that my doctor has never mentioned the Renuvion procedure since I paid for the procedure, a month before the surgery. I am now several weeks post-op, is there a telltale sign that I had the procedure? It was a significant upcharge, if they forgot and didn't do it, I'm concerned they wouldn't be honest.

Would putting dermalmd on my buttocks as well as my hips help make my hips look fuller as well?
Buttock ImplantsYes I've been putting on my hips as well. It really does make the hips look fuller.

ASPS Roundtable: Differences Between Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeons
Friday, March 3, 2023"I think that it really it boils down to the length of training, the expertise that people are board-certified plastic surgeons have and the process to become board-certified because that's really all about patient safety. So, one way patients can do that is by seeing someone who is an ASPS Member Surgeon, because then they know that that person's going to have been board certified in plastic surgery."
