Question 1

sm. finger injury 2+ yr ago, had closed reduction.  dr. recommends buddy tape to straighten finger.  can i use kt tape to do this-no info on kt site.

Accepted Answer

AS long as it is not: too tight, allows motion when permitted, and is the right treatment for the issue then sure tape is tape. Personally, I like to use coban and then tape over the coban. I also often recommend padding in the small web between the fingers to avoid maceration or wear. Hygiene is very important as a dirty web space will not only smell bad but the skin can get  irritated.

Question 2

laser fat reduction

Accepted Answer

No: The most commonly performed bariatric (weight loss) surgery procedures are laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding and roux-en-y gastric bypass. There are some other surgical procedures, such as sleeve gastrectomy and jejunoileal bypass, in addition to liposuction, but i don't know of any methods involving laser therapy yet.

Question 3

what is the cost of "ultrashape" fat reduction?

Accepted Answer

Jury is out: There is a flood of new devices, technologies, techniques and all sorts of brand names that purport to remove fat without downtime, surgery, bruising, etc. The simple fact is that none of them come close to the results you can get with traditional liposuction. For fat limited to a small area, some of these techniques might work for you. If you want true sculpting see an experienced plastic surgeon.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Question 6

if i lose fat in the pubic area by reducing my body fat (currently at 22%) (aim 15%) will there be a reduction on penoscrotal webbing?

Accepted Answer

Here are some...: Penoscrotal webbing is a nearly normal variation of connecting penis and scrotum, which is nothing to do with obesity which contributes more to prominent mons pubis, since fatty tissue deposit to penoscrotal area is low. To assess the clinical significance, seek evaluation by a urologist who will review your detailed history and conduct physical exam so to come up with a reasonable answer to yours
