Answer Snippet
Can't Get Juvederm Right! Overfill? Do I Start over or Do I Need Something More Aggressive?
Using fillers for facial volumizing - look at the big picture!
Oct 4, 2012
When I evaluate a patient for using fillers, I think the most important thing to do is to take into account the entire face. A lot of injectors will put some filler (Juvederm, in your case) under the eyes or in the cheeks, but will completely ignore many other signs of aging. When this happens, a person can look unnatural or "partially overfilled" because other areas were ignored. Because of your age and weight, you have lost a lot of overall facial volume including in the...
What Works Better or Best for Malasma? IPL or Fraxel?
Treatment options for melasma
Sep 17, 2012
Melasma is a very complicated and chronic type of skin pigmentation. It is more common in women and particularly in people with skin that is dark or tans easily. It can be exacerbated by pregnancy, birth control pills, heat, and especially sun exposure. Laser can be useful, but I don't consider it the treatment of choice for melasma. Due to the mechanism of action of each of the lasers, I feel that Fraxel is a better treatment option compared to IPL; however, there is...
Scultra Injections Post Op Normal Effects?
Gradual facial volumizing with Sculptra
Jul 31, 2012
When Sculptra is injected properly, it needs to be mixed with a large amount of water and lidocaine. The actual Sculptra molecule is a very small particle that requires hydration with sterile water. If more water is used (usually at least 6-10 cc per vial), there is a lower risk of developing lumps. Immediately after the injection, you can see the effect of filling with the water which usually is a more "bloated" appearance than the ultimate result you will get with new...
Retin A for Eye Area - my Wrinkles Are Worse Now?
Using Retin-A and similar products around the eyes for wrinkles
Jul 31, 2012
Retin-A and Atralin both contain the same ingredient (tretinoin). If you are using both of them, that may be too irritating to the delicate skin around the eyes. Many people can tolerate a lower strength tretinoin, such as 0.02%, around the eyes. If not, an over the counter retinol is the next best thing. It can take up to 6 months to see improvement of wrinkles with topical retinoids. Studies have shown an increase in collagen thickness with long term use of...
Which Hylauronic Acid Filler Lasts the Longest?
Longevity of hyaluronic acid fillers
May 22, 2012
We now have a number of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers to choose from in the U.S. and there are likely many more to come. Each of them has their own unique qualities that affect the injection technique, results, and longevity. The longevity of a particular filler can be variable depending on the area that was treated, the amount that was injected, and the person that it was injected into. Essentially, there are not necessarily any rules about how long the filler will last...
Bunny Nose After Botox. How Do I Avoid This Effect?
Preventing "bunny lines" with botulinum toxin
May 8, 2012
It is not uncommon for some people to have overactive muscles on the nasal bridge and sides of the nose. This can be a natural occurrence or can be cause by "recruitment" of these muscles when your glabellar (frown line between the eyebrow) muscles are weakened with botulinum toxin treatments. In order to prevent or treat these "bunny lines", botulinum toxin can be used carefully in these overactive muscles as well as your normal treatment. Make sure you...
Is It Better to Have Fillers Injected with a Microcannula?
Injecting fillers with a microcannula
May 4, 2012
Microcannulae have recently become more popular in the U.S. for injection of fillers. Some of the more experienced injectors (specifically dermatologists and plastic surgeons) are using these now, but most injectors are still using regular needles. There is a learning curve with these devices and advanced training is strongly recommended. The microcannula is most useful for areas such as the cheeks, temples, and tear troughs. Because they have a blunt tip, a regular...
