Answer Snippet
Slimmer jaw without surgery - Would botox in my Masseter muscle slim my jaw?
Jawline
Feb 21, 2020
Botox is injected into the masseter muscle to slim the jaw (the posterior jaw). If you bite down, you can palpate the muscle- this is the area that would be targeted. You already have wonderful features and this may be a small tweak but address your concern.
I would like to tackle 4 skin problems and would love to know what treatments are most effective and
High value treatments
Feb 21, 2020
Ww admire your thoughtful approach in wanting to tackle the various issues in order and to maximize results! The Fraxel laser would be a great procedure to resurface your skin, thereby improving texture, reducing sun damage (you had a skin cancer), and helping fade acne scars! I would start there! 
What would be best for my tear trough fillers? Juvederm or Restylane? How many cc?
Tear trough filler
Apr 21, 2019
Restylane or Belotero, 1-2cc, only performed by a board certified physician. High risk area, potential to look swollen and very bruised. 
Is Restylane Lyft better than Restylane for nose to mouth lines and lines on corners of the mouth?
Which Restylane?
Feb 21, 2019
All restylane-family of fillers, including Restylane-L, Restylane Lyft, Refyne and Defyne are hyaluronic acid fillers that are mostly the same ingredients. They differ in the way the HA molecules are linked and embedded within the gel carrier, therefore they have different physical properties.  Restylane Lyft has one of the highest stiffness-factors of all HA fillers, and therefore is great for giving structure, for example overlying the cheekbones. Conversely, it is not a great choice for t...
How can I get a sharp jawline and no jiggle please?
Profile (chin)
Jan 23, 2019
Based on the photo it appears that there is a pocket of fat that would be amenable to treatment with Kybella (injection) or liposuction. Kybella is less invasive since it is not surgery but requires multiple session (3-4) for best results. Another option is SculpSure Neck which is a laser that is fixed to your neck for 25 minutes.  You need to have an in person consultation and decide whether you want surgery or not. If not, then the above are the next best thing.  Best! Dr. Estee Williams 
What's your opinion on this Emsculpt protocol?
Emsculpt questions
Jan 20, 2019
According the company that manufactures the Emsculpt device, the following is true: first, four sessions spaced at least 48 hours apart, and over a two week period are done; followed by maintenance sessions at least two more times at the 3 month mark. Each session should be charged at $750-1000, at minimum. The maintenance sessions can be done more frequently of course. Best! Dr. Estee Williams 
Fibroblast skin tightening (leaves temporary little skin scabs) vs. RF: which is better for lifting
Tightening
Jan 20, 2019
I think you’re referring to something like the Plasma pen.... if so, any treatment with RF+microneedling will be able to penetrate more deeply into the skin than that treatment will. Best! Dr. Estee Williams 
How long should I wait between laser hair removal treatments on full legs?
Laser hair removal
Jan 20, 2019
The recommended wait period between laser hair removal treatments is 4-6 weeks. Best! Dr. Estee Williams 
Is 3 weeks from my first fraxel to soon for another?
Fraxel
Jan 20, 2019
Hi! There are different types of Fraxel. But regardless, the recommended wait time between sessions is typicallt 4-6 weeks. More specifically, if the “Fraxel” was set to target wrinkles then I would wait 6-8 weeks, to allow new collagen growth. If it was for brown spots then 4 weeks would be sufficient (although the downtime is truly 10 days, which doesn’t give you much of a break!!).
Will a chin filler improve my lower face and profile? Will I also benefit from a filler in the jawli
Chin filler
Jan 20, 2019
Hi! One approach would be to start with one syringe of a deep, thicker filler such as Defyne or Juvederm Ultra Plus to build up the chin bone, as if you were getting a chin implant. The injections would be placed deep on the frontal portion of the chin bone.  Another approach would be to do the above, plus an additional (second) syringe along the marionette lines - which are the shadows that start at the corner of mouth and go downward. Filling the marionettes helps soften the chin and w...
Voluma in temples and cheeks - Am I a candidate?
Cheek and temple filler
Jan 20, 2019
I agree that the temples are an area that can become concave and hence age a person. My go-to filler for the temple area is not Voluma. This is a very thick filler with great lifting capacity but it is not FDA approved for the temple nor would most providers use it off label even, since there are other safer options for the that area. 
2 1/2 months in still “purging” how long will it take until I see improvement! I’m having doubts if
Accutane
Jan 20, 2019
The medicine is dosed by your weight and if you had sides effects, the doctor is likely trying to keep the dose low even though it sounds like you could take a higher dose. But, although the course will take longer now that you’re on a lower dose, in the end, you should still have a great result.  The purging is not a scientific phase.  It just means you still have acne and your oil glands haven’t been shut down yet! It takes time. Best. 
My oily skin is getting worse on Accutane. Is it normal?
Accutane and oily skin
Jan 20, 2019
The medicine hasn’t even begun to work its effects yet. There is nothing to worry about. It takes time. Best!
Since MiraDry destroys the sweat glands in the armpits, will it cause more sweat production in other
No
Dec 12, 2018
Absolutely not. That can happen with other sweat treatments (ones that involve surgically cutting off the nerve supply), but not this.  We know this does not happen. Best, Dr. Williams 
Is an itchy rash around my armpit and spreading to my chest area common after miraDry?
Rash
Dec 12, 2018
An itchy rash on 1 (or 2?) armpits and chest, occurring 3 after MiraDry, is not something I’ve seen and I have extensive experience; likely unrelated, even more so if it is just on 1 side.
