Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Can I do rhino, lip lift & lower blepharoplasty all in one?
Concurrent lip lift and rhinoplasty
Aug 12, 2023
I usually discourage lip lifting and rhinoplasty at the same time; the nose tip and base need time to heal and settle, and I don't want to have the healing and pulling forces of the lip lift to affect this. I recommend having either procedure separated by about 6 months from its counterpart for more predictable healing results. I don't see an issue doing a concurrent lip lift and blepharoplasty, or rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty. Of note, a lip lift is a procedure I frequently do in the...
Strangely shaped nose, can the bone be fixed with fillers so I can only have surgery for the tip? (P
Surgical vs non-surgical rhinoplasty
Jul 25, 2023
Fillers can be a great tool in the reshaping of a nose, but their limitations include their lack of ability to take away undesired volume. In my practice, I prefer using non-permanent, dissolvable hyaluronic acid fillers, and mostly employ them to camouflage small bridge bumps, fill in indentations, and create the appearance of a more upturned nose tip. Your photos suggest some widening of your nasal bones, which would be better address with surgical rhinoplasty. Start by meeting with a...
Restalyne Defyne injected in lips 9 months ago - has it migrated? Will it resolve on its own? (photo
Filler migration
Jul 23, 2023
Filler migration doesn't usually resolve on its own, as hyaluronic acid filler sticks around for a long time in the body, even in highly mobile areas like the lips and mouth. It may be best to go back to your injector, review your before-treatment photos, and craft a treatment plan based on this information. Best of luck!
Should I opt for filler or a lip lift to enhance the look of my upper lip?
Lip lift vs lift filler for augmentation
Jul 11, 2023
A surgical lip lift has the dual benefit of shortening a too-long philtrum (distance between the bottom of the nose and the upper lip border) and turning out the red lip, making it look fuller without adding volume. Injectable fillers absolutely add volume and hydration to the tissues, but do not usually shorten the length of an excessive philtrum.
Your photo suggests you may do better with a lip lift, followed by volume augmentation (if you want additional volume). Meet with an...
How much skin is is recommended to be removed for my lip lift?
Lip Lift Skin removal
Jul 9, 2023
Every patient will have different lip needs based on her individual anatomy and aesthetic goals. This said, in general 10-11mm length of cutaneous lip left after a lip lift is usually towards the shorter range for most surgeons. A lot of my patients range in the 11-15mm distance after lip lift surgery, and I think age, genetics, and previous lip filler history contribute to both lip lift design planning and outcomes. Work together with your surgeon to create a plan that is satisfactory to...
Saline Injections for atrophic scars on face 7 months post rhinoplasty - would this impact rhinoplas
Saline injections for acne scars
Jun 20, 2023
Since your rhinoplasty surgeon is familiar with your medical history and details of surgery, it's best to check in with him/ her before doing saline injections for nasal acne scarring. In general, at 7 months, the bones and cartilage of the nose are pretty stable; while the soft tissue (skin, underlying connective tissue of the nose) continues to have some swelling or edema, which takes 1+ years to resolve. Depending on the amount of soft tissue swelling you have, saline injections may...
Forehead lipoma removal: botox, glue x stitches and laser treatments?
Forehead Lipoma Surgery
Feb 18, 2023
There are lots of great options to help minimize scarring on the forehead after lipoma removal. Besides Botox, silicone sheets, IPL and laser treatments, also discuss a pretrichial or hair-bearing scalp incision to place the scar into the hair, as opposed to onto the hairliness skin of the forehead. Lipomas located relatively close to the hairline may be amenable to this treatment, and if your anatomy allows for this, this treatment planning may help minimize scarring too.
Post Open Rhinoplasty dents in nose, should I try filler or get a revision surgery?
Filler vs surgery
Oct 30, 2022
The posted photos suggest a separation between the bone and cartilage parts of the nose bridge; if this is the case, this is unlikely to get better with time. If your wedding is within the next 6 months, fillers may be a better option, as they can provide an immediate improvement with little to no recovery. Long-term, surgical correction of the nose bridge contour will likely yield better and longer-lasting results; but revision nose surgery results in more and prolonged swelling, and so...
How do I still have filler in my nose after 2.5 years?
Filler longevity
Oct 30, 2022
Fillers likely stay in the tissues for a lot longer than the few months-a year. There are imaging studies that show presence of hyaluronic acid filler in the tear troughs on MRIs 14 years after injection. The nose is also not a very mobile area, which likely translates into fillers sticking around for a longer as opposed to shorter period of time. Voluma is a more cross-linked filler, meaning its hyaluronic acid subunits are more tightly connected than some other fillers; and this may...
Heard that you may need a touch up a few weeks after a non surgical nose. Why would you need it so s
Nonsurgical Nose Job Touch-Up
Aug 20, 2022
Filler touch-up may be necessary after a non-surgical rhinoplasty to improve results. While the filler doesn't go away in weeks, it sometimes flattens or shifts a bit, or simply more may be necessary to achieve the desired goal after the swelling related to the initial treatment has resolved. There are different types of filler used for nonsurgical rhinoplasty, and muscle-relaxing Botox and Dysport are often used during this treatment as well; while filler results are apparent immediately...
Which is less risky - nose filler or nose threads?
Non-surgical rhinoplasty: filler vs threads
Jan 14, 2022
The risk of vascular occlusion, or blockage of a blood vessel which can lead to tissue loss, scarring, and vision loss, is present with filler in the nose, but not with threads. The risk of thread extrusion or dimpling is not present with filler. As a rhinoplasty surgeon who performs non-surgical rhinoplasty, I stay away from threads in the nose, as I worry they disrupt the nasal tissues in a way which would be difficult to treat during surgical rhinoplasty. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal...
Labret piercing left indentation. Is there any way I can get rid of it?
Labret piercing treatment
Jan 14, 2022
Labret piercings may be treated with a small surgical excision of the indentation or TCA cross, which is the application of an acidic peel solution applied to the indendation in an attempt to scar it from the inside out. While both procedures would leave a mark, the aim of them is to leave a flat contour in place of the piercing indentation. Both procedures can be comfortably performed with local anesthetic or injectable numbing medicine, without the need for sedation or general anesthesia...
Am I possibly a candidate for Nonsurgical Nose Job?
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty
Jan 14, 2022
Nonsurgical or so-called "liquid" rhinoplasty involves the use of dermal fillers to reshape the nose, and one of the most common treatment goals of this treatment is to camouflage a dorsal/ bridge hump. Dermal filler is placed above and sometimes below the bump in order to create the appearance of a straighter bridge. The photo you have shared shows a nose that would likely do well with a nonsurgical rhinoplasty in achieving this aim.
Because the nose is a higher risk area to treat with...
What bothers me most is that they move excessively when laughing. Is there any surgical solution to
Ear movement
Sep 3, 2021
Though it is challenging to answer your question without the benefit of a physical exam, in general, a lot of the muscles located behind the ear and responsible for ear movement are transected/ cut during some of the more common otoplasty maneuvers. Discuss your concerns with your otoplasty surgeon, and best of luck!
Sculptra or Radiesse for neck?
Hyperdilute Radiesse for neck rejuvenation
Sep 3, 2021
I prefer hyperdilute Radiesse to Sculptra in the neck, and find it is less likely to form lumps and has the nice benefit of immediate treatment gratification. For maximal nonsurgical neck rejuvenation, I often combine hyperdilute Radiesse with Botox/ Dysport injections and radiofrequncy microneedling. Best of luck!
