8 days post Juvederm Ultra Plus lip injections, can my lips be fixed. If so, how?!
Deflated Lip on One Side
Mar 27, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photos and your concerns.  The hyaluronidase (enzyme to dissolve the original “bump” inside your left lower lip) continues to work for approximately 2 weeks.  As a result, the second day injection with Restylane did not last.  Even if he or she chose Juvederm, it would not have remained in the left lower lip.  I recommend waiting another week and returning to your board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for enhancement of the left lower lip.

Juvederm discoloration
Discoloration Under Eyes After Juvederm
Mar 10, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photo and your concerns.  If the discoloration was not evident before injection with Juvederm for the tear trough, you have superficial hyaluronic acid (HA) filler causing a Tyndall effect.  Either the filler was improperly placed, the wrong filler was used, or some of the filler migrated superficially due to trauma or edema.  Return to your board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for correction with an enzyme called hyaluronidase.  Best of luck,Su...
Can I get the PRP facial if I have genital herpes?
PRP Facial Safety
Feb 9, 2018
Thank you for your question.  There should be no contraindications to PRP to the face despite a history or genital herpes.  If you have a herpetic outbreak on the face / lips, wait until the lesions are resolved.  If you simply have a history of facial lesions, ask your dermatologist or plastic surgeon to pre-treat with an antiviral medication such as acyclovir or valcyclovir. Best of luck,Suneel Chilukuri, M.D.Houston, Texas
I am starting to see sagging under my chin. What’s the best cream or non surgical treatment? (phot
Sagging Neck
Feb 7, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photo and your concern.  A conservative approach is to start with a scientifically proven neck cream such as Alastin Restorative Neck (3rd Generation), PCA Neck and Decolletage (2nd Generation), or Revision Nectifirm (3rd Generation).  I typically recommend applying twice daily for 3 months before considering a nonsurgical procedure.  Some effective nonsurgical skin / neck tightening procedures include Radiofrequency (Forma, Thermage, etc), Radiofrequency Mic...
Has anyone seen a reaction like this from Volbella lip filler?
“Reaction” to Vobella Lip Filler
Jan 30, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photos and concerns.  I am sorry that you are suffering and that your “injector” and “injector supervisor” are not helping.  My primary concern is that you may be having a vascular necrosis (the filler may either be in the labial artery or may be compressing the labial artery). Is the area painful?  How soon after the lip injections did this “reaction” occur?  Was there first a bruise?While I normally recommend returning to your physician, he or she does not appear...
Can Botox prevent my chin from elongating when smiling?
Botox to Decrease Chin Length?
Jan 17, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photos and your concerns.  Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) are used to relax / soften muscles.  In the area of the chin, Botox can soften the contracture of the mentalis muscle.  Unfortunately, this would not help as it may slightly elongate your chin.  
Please see a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who specializes in nonsurgical approaches to see if you may be a candidate for filler to the upper cutaneous lip and the “prejowl” sulcus to ...
Silhouette Instalift for drooping from facial paralysis?
Instalift For Facial Paralysis
Jan 7, 2018
Thank you for sharing your question.  I am sorry to hear you are suffering from the long term side effects of Bell’s Palsy.  The Instalift is one more tool in our toolbox to help correct the “droopier” side of your face.  To see several live videos, visit our Facebook page @RefreshDermatology.  In my practice, this is often combined with neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) and fillers / collagen stimulators to help achieve symmetry.  The results are remarkable and have provided nu...
This was my "lip goals" photo. Vollure or something else?
Lips Ready for Instagram
Jan 6, 2018
Thank you for sharing your ideal lips photo and your concerns.  Your plastic surgeon is correct that Juvederm Ultra (JU) or Ultra Plus (JUP) and Vollure are very different products.  JU and JUP are highly hydrophilic products, meaning they attract water.  As a result, these products typically have significant improvement for volume (“size”) of the lip.  Vollure is a wonderful product that can be used to enhance lip size but it is not as robust as the JU or JUP.  In addition, it spreads ea...
Dysport vs Botox?
Botox vs Dysport vs Xeomin
Jan 6, 2018
Thank you for your question.  In the right hands, all currently approved neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, & Xeomin) are equally effective with the same duration.  The dosage units sound different but this is an arbitrary measure.   For example, in clinical practice, I find that 2.5 to 3 units of Dysport is approximately equivalent to 1 unit of Botox.  Similarly, 1.5 to 2 units of Xeomin provides the same longevity as Botox in my practice.  See a board certified dermatologist or plastic s...
Wrinkles after Botox?
Wrinkles Remain after Botox
Jan 3, 2018
Thank you for sharing your photos and your concerns.  Unfortunately, the upper portion of your frontalis muscle and part of your right corrugator muscle have not been fully treated.  Every person has different muscle lengths / sizes.  As a result, one must pay assess and treat your specific anatomy.  Please return to your board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for further evaluation and treatment.  Best of luck,Suneel Chilukuri, M.D.Houston, Texas
What type of doctor is best to use to remove a chalazion? An eye doctor or a plastic surgeon? Or o
Removing a Chalazion (Eyelid Growth)
Dec 12, 2017
Thank you for your question.  The specialist that most often treats this area of the face is an oculoplastic surgeon.  He or she will possess the most intricate knowledge of the eyelid. 
Best of luck,
Suneel Chilukuri, M.D.

Too much Voluma XC?
Too Much Voluma?
Dec 10, 2017
Thank you for sharing your photos and concerns.  Please wait 2-3 weeks for any mild swelling to settle.  It is hard to appreciate proportions of your face with so much being blacked out.  After the 2-3 week period, return to your board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for further evaluation and “fine tuning”.Best of luck,Suneel Chilukuri, M.D.Houston, Texas
I look like I have "bags" under my eyes after Bellafill injection?
Bags Under Eyes after Bellafill
Dec 2, 2017
Thank you for sharing your photos and concern.  You may be experiencing swelling / edema which will cause “festooning” that is evident in the photos.  There are two common reasons for swelling after tear trough filler.  The most common reason is that your dermatologist or plastic surgeon used a hydrophilic (water-attracting) filler such as Juvederm Ultra or Ultra Plus.  The second most common reason is that a neuromodulator (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) was injected at the same time as your fi...
Can filler be used above the tear trough line to make the lower eyelid transition smoother? (photo
Tear Trough Filler Causing a "Shelf Appearance"
Dec 2, 2017
Thank you for sharing your photos and your concern.  When addressing the hollowness under the eyes, one must first appropriately support all the structures under the eye including the musculature, SOOF, fat pads, and skin.   The correction does not simply involve injecting in the tear trough.  In addition, your physician should not inject where there is no bony support.  Most often, multiple products need to be used to achieve the best results and not cause a "shelf".  Please see a boar...
Nonsurgical rhinoplasty - swelling from Juvederm Ultra? 2 days post op.
Nose Swelling after Juvederm Ultra
Dec 2, 2017
Thank you for sharing your photos and your concern.  It is normal for Juvederm Ultra and Juvederm Ultra Plus to swell significantly, especially when used for nasal injections.  Both are highly hydrophilic products meaning they attract water.  A suggestion is to ask your plastic surgeon if you are a candidate for furosemide which will subside the swelling in 24-48 hours.  It will take 2-4 weeks for your final result when using this particular product.  If you are not satisfied with the resu...
