Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Can a deviated septum become more deviated?
Re-deviated Septum
Oct 18, 2018
After a septoplasty, deviation recurring is certainly something that can be seen. After a trauma, the septum can deviated or fracture since it was already weaker from prior surgery. A few days is likely not enough time to know if the breathing will be permanently affected or whether another surgery will be required. A physical examination by a Facial Plastic surgeon would be the best option. They likely wouldn’t suggest anything immediate but would be able to give you recommendations…
What is the cost and procedure to help my ice pick scars? Would a face peel help?
Ice Pick Scars
Oct 18, 2018
Thank you for the photos-they’re very helpful! Ice pick scarring from acne can be an incredibly difficult and frustrating problem. The critical first step is to make sure the acne is controlled and active breakouts are at a minimum. We wouldn’t want to pursue expensive procedures and then have active lesions set us back.
Microneedling would be my first recommendation. Microneedling will need to be done to a depth much deeper than most aesthetic spas would offer, so seeking…
Any idea on how to get rid of the two lines between my Cupid’s bow? Filler? Laser?
Lines in the Cupids Bow
Oct 18, 2018
The photos are really helpful! A very thin filler, such as restylane silk, belotero or volbella would be great in this area. i wouldn’t anticipate complete resolution in one treatment, but repeated every 3-6 months should lead to ultimate softening. the other addition that must be done very carefully would be to add 2 units of botox to the skin just above the cupids bow. When you do this at the time as filler it can often help the filler last even longer because the muscle contraction isn’t…
I got Voluma injections in my cheek area a couple of weeks ago. I am terribly unhappy with the results
Not happy with Voluma in cheeks…
Sep 19, 2014
I am sorry you are not pleased with your result! It doesn’t happen often, but it’s disheartening when a patient is unsatisfied with their injections. I’m sure your surgeon would like an opportunity to improve on your areas of concern, so I would give him or her the chance to do so.Firstly, Voluma is indicated for the cheek area and is intended to go right on top of the cheekbone as your surgeon seems to have performed it. If you were in fact more interested in filling the area under your…
Lumps from JUVÉDERM will not go away. Is this normal?
Juvederm and Lumps
Sep 19, 2014
Juvederm has many versions–some thicker than others. Lumps can form, but usually with massage and time, they settle easily. The concern should resolve with a quick phone call to your surgeon-confirm what type of filler you had injected first off, and if it was Juvederm, perhaps it was one of the thicker versions that lasts longer. If you can see the lump (not just feel it if you push hard) and it is bothersome, perhaps the amount of hyaluronidase was too little. You should see a difference…
Would 2 syringes of Juvederm be enough to get full plump lips?
Less is best for lips!
Sep 17, 2014
You have excellent lower lip volume already and the lower lip should always remain more full than the upper. Half a syringe or less in the upper lip should give you the volume you most likely would desire in the top lip–even injecting one syringe in both can be overkill. Its easy to return and inject a bit more–difficult to undo an over-injected lip well. My advice would be to start with a half syringe or less and see where that takes you! As always, make sure you are getting injected by a…
What is Juvederm?
What is Juvederm and How is it used?
Aug 8, 2014
Juvederm is in a family of products called “hyaluronic acid fillers”. Hyaluronic acids, or “HA”s, are naturally-occurring compounds in your body that support cell structure and plumpness of skin. When processed in certain ways, they form gel compounds that we use to fill facial folds and add volume to certain areas of the face.Juvederm, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Restylane, Belotero and Voluma are all HA products but are used in different ways and different areas of the face depending on how thick…
How Much Does Botox Cost?
Atlanta Botox cost
Aug 8, 2014
Botox and other treatments like it are constantly in flux because there are competing interests in obtaining a share of the “injection pie”. Medical spas employ nurse injectors, who may perform lots of injections, but usually don’t see their patients back on a regular basis because the deals they offer may be short lived, and the same injectors aren’t there each time. Although it is common to see deals such as $8 a unit for botox, if the treatment is not done correctly, or by someone who…
What is a Botox Lift or Botox Brow Lift?
Botox Brow lift-it works!
Aug 8, 2014
Botox is a treatment that stops or reduces muscle movement. The key to achieving a “lift” with botox is to preferentially treat the muscles that pull the brow down, which allows the muscles that lift the brow to work unimpeded. It may sound complicated, but a skilled Facial Plastic surgeon with experience in performing advanced injection techniques, performs this type of lift every day. Placing small amounts of Botox under the tail of the brows and around the eyes can also achieve a lift in…
I have lots of wrinkles around my lips. Is it safe to get a Botox injection around the lip area? And w
Botox around the lips
Aug 8, 2014
Good question! Botox can be very useful around the lip and mouth area–it can soften vertical lip lines (“smoker’s lines”), it can also sometimes turn the corners of the mouth slightly upward so they don’t seem droopy. The caveat to Botox around the mouth is that it takes very little to make a change–too much in this area can make the upper lip too long, can alter the smile or make it difficult to make small facial expressions. It’s imperative to undergo treatment with an expert Facial…
Which One is Better Botox or Fillers?
Botox vs Fillers
Jul 26, 2014
This is a very common question-thank you for asking it! Botox, Dysport and Xeomin work by stopping repeated muscle action at the site of injection. These treatments are very useful for lines and wrinkles that occur due to repetitive motion (specifically, the crows feet, “11” lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines and sometimes lip lines). Fillers, on the other hand, are best used for lines or folds that occur at rest, and can also be used to rejuvenate areas of lost volume. Both can…
What can I do for my eyebrows? One has a higher arch than the other.
Changing brow position with Botox
Jul 24, 2014
Depending on the brow position that best appeals to you, the higher brow can be lowered slightly to match the other side, or the lower brow may be able to be raised at least at the tail, if not the peak of the arch itself.The goal would be to make them more symmetric; perfect symmetry is not likely to be achievable. A facial plastic surgeon, trained in these advanced techniques, should be able to assist you in achieving significant improvement. Happy injecting!
Debating Forehead flap: how long until the flap comes down?
Forehead flap vs cheek flap for reconstruction
Jul 24, 2014
Thank you for your question! This is quite a common concern, as these two flaps are very regularly used in nasal reconstruction. Although the flaps may sound quite drastic, they really do give excellent results and in most cases, superior results to skin grafts or other local tissue for larger wounds.One point that may help you decide is what your anatomy may tell us about which flap may suite you best. If you have heavy smile lines already, or deep folds, the scar may hide quite well once…
1 week post-op, I have a spongy fluid on my forehead. Is this normal, or a direct result of too much w
Fluid in incision after Mohs
Jul 24, 2014
It is difficult to tell how much of the area may be affected by normal swelling or whether or not there is actual fluid that requires draining. It is normal to have a mild to even moderate amount of swelling in the forehead after this type of closure and may take about a week to resolve. If you push gently on the swollen area, and can easily feel the bone of your forehead underneath, it is more likely just swelling. In some cases, however, especially in the forehead where the blood…
Will fillers and Botox harm my unborn child?
Injectables and Pregnancy…
Jul 24, 2014
Congratulations on your pregnancy! You are absolutely correct that there are no studies, and will likely never be any, on whether or not injectables are safe during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding. The safest answer, as you know already, is not to undergo these treatments if you could be pregnant or are breastfeeding, as we do not know how much, if any, gets into the bloodstream. That being said, the primary site of action for Botox is at the presynaptic nerve ending–so it is intended to…
