Patient: Hello. Recently I am seriously thinking about plastic surgery. My breasts sagged after the pregnancy and my belly “hangs” over. I am not a plumpish woman (I weight 60 kg and am 170 cm tall), thus this problem is not so obvious to others. I would like to ask, how much time should pass after pregnancy to have a breast lift and a tummy tuck (I don’t have much excess skin). Is it worth doing this surgery if I plan to have a baby after some 7 years? Won’t it be useless?
Thank you. Sincerely A….
Doctor: Dear A…,
Thank you for the letter. It’s quite often problem after pregnancy. Both surgeries – a breast lift and a tummy tuck – can be performed after 6 months after pregnancy. These operations are not recommended for women planning kids in 2-3 years time. Unfortunately, usually breastfeeding can be impossible after a breast lift. When breasts are sagged and quite small, not breast lift but breast augmentation is performed.
If you wish, I may send some examples.
Sincerely, Dr. Martynas Norkus
Patient: Hello, It‘s nice you can find some time not for a present but for a potential patient in your busy day. Thank you, indeed. I am very interested in seeing them. In addition, it would be great if you denoted prices for me to imagine how much everything might cost.If it were too difficult, maybe I could send you my photos: then you might see my problems and evaluate how much an operation could cost.
Thanks for the time devoted. Sincerely, A….
Doctor: Dear A… ,
Some our patients are from abroad, thus we consult them in this way quite often. It’s not difficult at all. The price of breast augmentation is between 8500 and 10000 litas plus overnight stay 300 litas. This price includes all services (staff work, anesthesia, medication, etc.). There are no additional expenses.
I will send you some before/after photos.
Sincerely, dr. Martynas Norkus
Patient: Happy holidays!
As I understand you have named the price of breast augmentation. My breasts are not small, they are only sagged. It is hard to explain just in words; I believe I should come and consult in real. But a question arises when to do it? Now I am breastfeeding and I do not think the real shape of my breasts can be seen. When should you recommend seeing you in a consultation?
By the way, saying the truth, I would not like to correct my breasts’ form with implants. What is the percent of breast lift operations when you use implants? It is possible to correct breasts using their own tissues and only removing excess skin? If such operation is possible, what is the price of it? Loads of questions arise, but no patience is left…
Sincerely, A…
Doctor: Dear A...,
I haven’t completely understood your problem. When breasts are of normal size, only breast lift can be performed. Implants are used only when breasts sag and become smaller (often case after breastfeeding). You may come to a consultation after a few months after breastfeeding. Breast lift costs approximately 6000 litas.
Sincerely, dr. Martynas Norkus
Patient: Dear Martynas,
Everything heals perfectly. Sometimes I even let myself to lie on my belly. On the whole, now I feel satisfaction and joy having this new “purchase”. And you have contributed to that greatly. Thankful forever, A….
Doctor: Dear A…
I would not recommend lying on your belly for a month since the surgery. I am pleased to hear, you like the results. The clinic’s administrator will schedule a consultation; I will wait for you.
Have a nice day. Dr. Martynas
