Statement: I have a passion for helping patients look and feel their best, and this is what initially drove me to the field of Facial Plastic Surgery. I always strive to provide a comfortable and collaborative experience for every individual patient, combining personal attentive care with flawless results. My philosophy is to deliver natural and balanced results, while achieving each individual’s unique aesthetic goals.

I continue to be actively involved in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery research, co-authoring several journal publications, book chapters, and am an active member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Outside of my academic endeavors and clinical practice, I have been involved with humanitarian work around the world, with my most recent trip to Guatemala to help children with nasal deformities associated with cleft lip and palates. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and eating good food.

Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Was the DP facelift & N/L done properly?
Facelift
Sep 30, 2023
Recurrence of the fold to the side of the mouth and platysmal bands can both recur after any type of facelift, so it is impossible to tell whether or not you had an actual deep plane facelift or another variety. You may require a revision surgery to further correct these issues, and your surgeon at the time of the revision may be able to tell you at that point.
What is the best way to get rid of scars from my deep plane neck and facelift?
Scars after facelift
Sep 30, 2023
Thank you for the photos and question. I’m sorry to hear that you are dealing this. It appears you had superficial skin slough. This will in general heal with time and you will be surprised how much better it looks in 3-6 months. Injections with kenalog or 5-FU can be beneficial to help calm down the itching and burning and may improve the appearance of the scar as well. Sometimes, after enough time as passed, it is possible to do a scar revision to further improve the appearance of the…
Can a tip plasty avoid any possible breathing issues that can come from a full cosmetic rhinoplasty?
Tip-plasty
Oct 31, 2022
Hello and thank you for your question. A procedure limited to just the tip of the nose could definitely address your concerns, and is probably less likely to cause breathing issues when compared to a full rhinoplasty. That being said, breathing issues after tip-plasty still can occur, so it is good to be aware of this possible risk. Rhinoplasty in general is not a skin procedure. The surgery addresses the bone and cartilage beneath the skin, and the skin simply drapes over the new framework…
Is it possible to have small bump removed from my nose without altering it’s entire shape?
Barbie nose
Oct 30, 2022
Hello, and thank you fo the question. I am in agreement with the other surgeons and believe that it is possible to just smooth out the bump without changing the rest of the nose. It is very important that you and your surgeon are on the same page. If you find a surgeon who is unable or unwilling to make the changes that you desire, I would recommend consulting with a few other surgeons to see what the say. Overall, it is totally possible to have a much more natural looking result. Best of luck!
Am I a good candidate for a Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty
Oct 30, 2022
Hello. I would agree with the other surgeons who have already answered your question. Rhinoplasty may be a great option to improve the appearance of your nose. I would recommend seeing a board certified surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty.
Nose still crooked and having trouble breathing 6 months after septorhinoplasty revision. What went w
Revision rhinoplasty
Oct 30, 2022
Hello, and thank you for the question. It appears that your profile (side view) is much improved from your second procedure. On the front view, you do still appear to have a slight curvature of your nose, however you are only 6 months out from surgery. There is undoubtedly still a significant amount of swelling remaining in your nose. As this improves, the shape of your nose may improve as well. Your surgeon may be able to recommend some conservative measures to help things along including…
Rhinoplasty 6 months ago & it left a dent in my nostril – will it heal?
Nostril dent
Oct 30, 2022
Hello. Thank you for the question. Unfortunately, the photos that are submitted are difficult to see what you are referring to. I would recommend trying to re-take the photos in better lighting with a better camera (not the selfie camera on your phone). This may require someone to help take the photo for you. This way we can see better what you are trying to show us.
I hate to smile now. How can I get my old face back?
Rhinoplasty and dental show
Oct 30, 2022
Hi there. Thanks for the question. I am not aware of a single procedure that will address both of your concerns. A rhinoplasty or “tip-plasty” will certainly help lift and refine your tip, and prevent it from plunging when smiling, but won’t do much for dental show while smiling. Your lips appear to be much fuller now than when you were younger, so I wonder if you have had lip filler. If that is the case, then that can be a big reason for less of your teeth showing when you smile. One easy…
18 y/o concerned about crooked nose and hump. Goal is a more defined and less bulbous look. Is this a
Rhinoplasty
Oct 30, 2022
Hello and thank you for the question. Yes, a rhinoplasty can accomplish the goals you have outlined. The one limiting factor would be the thickness of your nasal skin. The thicker your skin, the more difficult it is to make the tip more defined. I would recommend in person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to determine if your goals are realistic.
My nose tip is more swollen than ever 8 months after rhinoplasty – what can be done?
Swelling after rhinoplasty
Oct 30, 2022
Hello and thank you for your question. Prolonged swelling after rhinoplasty is not uncommon, and although the typical time period everyone quotes is one year, this can vary quite dramatically. Some people will take well over a year for all swelling to resolve. One aspect that greatly affects this is the thickness of your skin on your nose. The thicker the skin, the longer it tends to take for swelling to go down. I would recommend seeing your surgeon to discuss strategies to help reduce your…
Flat bulbous nose – Would a rhinoplasty help deliver more projection?
Bulbous nose
Oct 30, 2022
Hello and thank you for your question. From the photos you provided and your description of what you would like to achieve, I would say that yes a rhinoplasty can definitely help improve the projection and definition of your tip without compromising your breathing. The one factor that I cannot evaluate is the thickness of your skin. The thicker your skin, the more difficult it is to achieve a more defined tip. I would recommend in person evaluation by a facial plastic surgeon with extensive…
1 year post rhinoplasty, left with soft bump. What can this be?
Bump on nose
Oct 30, 2022
Hello. Thank you for the question. It is difficult to say with any certainty what this is based only off of the photo. Your surgeon will be the best person to identify what this is. There are many possible causes of a residual bump following rhinoplasty. It could be scar tissue, a piece of cartilage or a cartilage graft. I would recommend seeing your surgeon to get a more definitive answer as to what this is. Good luck!
Age 56, what should I do for a fresh look & do you prefer fillers or fat grafts for volume?
Facial rejuvenation
Oct 26, 2022
Hello, and thank you for the question. I am in agreement with the other surgeons who have already replied to your post. You are a more appropriate candidate for a lower facelift, and neck lift to best address your lower face, jawline and neck. There are no fillers that will improve these areas in a significant way. A lower blepharoplasty would be the best option to refresh your lower eyelids and smooth the transition from your lower eyelid down into your cheek. Simply adding volume to your…
Age 28, female – what can I do about these folds/bulge on my cheek?
Facelift not a good option for this
Oct 23, 2022
Hi there and thank you for the question. It would be most helpful to have an arrow pointing to the exact location of your concern, but if you are concerned about the fullness to the sides of your lips a facelift is not going to help at all. You need a physical exam by an experienced facial plastic surgeon to determine what is causing these areas of fullness as they can arise from multiple different things including buccal fat pads, normal facial musculature, poorly placed filler, etc. Good luck!
Rejected for Facelift/Necklift Due to Mild Primary Immune Deficiency. Can I Never Have Surgery?
Great question!
Oct 23, 2022
Hello, and thank you for the excellent question. In general this does not sound like an absolute contraindication to facelift surgery. Every surgeon must weigh the risks and benefits to doing a cosmetic procedure on someone. Some surgeons may feel that your immunodeficiency poses too high of a risk to justify the procedure, but other surgeons may not feel that way. I would suggest obtaining a second consultation by another surgeon.
