Dr. Sam Lam Plastic Surgery Forum

Dear Dr. Lam,

i am impressed by the way you treat your patients. It is interesting that you share your life philosophy with us. My questions: I lost weight and have to deal with some problems.

1) I have skin discoloration on my inner tights, under the breast and at my neck.

2)Old stretch marks all over my body.


Thank you in advance.

Greetings from Germany

thank you. very kind. as far as the things you have asked the reference the body. as you know, i only do the face. i would probably ask a dermatologist to begin with, as that sounds like a way to start. also, discoloration can be a hormonal issue and someone that does endocrine evaluation would help. here in the states, we have a specialty known as "anti-aging", which i have in my building that addresses hormones in a pro-active fashion. that may be a good thing to investigate.
best,
sml
