Answer Snippet
Why my right eyebrow is higher than my left eyebrow? How can I fix this?
Why my right eyebrow is higher than my left eyebrow?
Nov 16, 2018
All faces have some degree of asymmetry, which can affect the height of the eyebrows as well as other features. If this is bothersome to you, there are both surgical and nonsurgical ways to address it. I would recommend Botox injections to drop the right eyebrow slightly and create the balance you want. Botox is a quick, relatively painless procedure and the results last for three to four months. If you decide you want a more permanent solution, I would speak to a board-certified facial…
Brow lift necessary after brow/orbital bone reduction/remodelling?
Brow lift necessary after brow/orbital bone reduction/remodelling?
Nov 16, 2018
Hello and thank you for your question. A brow lift is not always necessary when you are performing a brow bone reduction if your brows are already at a good position. The reduction procedure should not impact the position of the eyebrows if it is performed correctly. That said, this is a somewhat specialized procedure that requires extensive experience and expertise by a plastic surgeon to achieve natural results. I would look for a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with ample knowledge…
After exploring many options for my long forehead and low brow, I’ve decided to do hairline lowering
Brow Lift
Nov 16, 2018
I appreciate your question. The hair grafts will require ample time to heal before your brow lift to prevent complications with either procedure. I would recommend waiting at least six months after your hair transplants to consider your brow lift. At that point, you should be able to pursue your surgery, keeping the incision just in front of the hairline where it should be covered by the newly transplanted hair. When you are ready for your brow lift, contact a board-certified facial plastic…
What sort of brow lift would help to lessen my forehead horizontal lines and the furrows between my e
What sort of brow lift would help to lessen my forehead horizontal lines
Nov 16, 2018
Hello and thanks for your question! Both the horizontal lines across the forehead and the furrow between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) can be effectively addressed with Botox, a nonsurgical injectable treatment that relaxes the facial muscles responsible for the formation of these wrinkles. Botox injections are completed in a matter of minutes and do not require any downtime afterward. However, the results are temporary, only lasting three to four months before another treatment is needed….
My nose is too small for my face and my face is too square. What are my treatment options?
What are my treatment options?
Nov 16, 2018
Thanks for your inquiry and photo. Unfortunately, it is impossible to make a full assessment from the image alone. Based on your description, it sounds like you would be a good candidate for rhinoplasty or nose reshaping surgery, which would elongate the nose and create better definition in the tip. There are also solutions for addressing your square jawline, from a chin implant to surgical trimming of the jawbone to create more of a heart shape to the face. I advise you to make an…
Facelift? or neck lift? I’ve recently lost 160lbs with 40ish to go.
Facelift? or neck lift?
Nov 16, 2018
Hello! Thank you for your question and congratulations on your weight loss! You are discovering what many patients that lose a massive amount of weight find – the skin does not always conform to the slimmer contour quickly enough, leaving loose folds of skin on the face, neck and the rest of the body. Fortunately, lift procedures are designed to remove the excess skin, smooth the contour and put the finishing touches on your weight loss efforts. In your case, I would recommend a c…
Is it necessary to dissolve filler in chin and jawline before a face/neck lift?
dissolve filler in chin and jawline before a face/neck lift?
Nov 16, 2018
Excellent question! In most cases, fillers should not affect the outcome of a facelift as long as the surgeon is aware of the filler that was used. However, this can vary somewhat from surgeon to surgeon. My advice is to select a board-certified facial plastic surgeon for your facelift and discuss your use of fillers prior to your surgery. Then you can follow the directions of the surgeon you choose to ensure the best possible outcome. Good luck to you!
Facelift after sliding genioplasty, how long to wait?
Facelift after sliding genioplasty
Nov 16, 2018
I appreciate your inquiry. When elective procedures are staged, the amount of time between surgeries will depend in large part on how long it takes swelling to go down from the initial procedure. If you don’t allow that to occur, the surgeon performing the facelift will not have an accurate baseline to work with when making corrections to the lower jawline. For most patients, three months is a good rule of thumb in terms of waiting for a subsequent procedure. However, some patients may n…
I want a lower facelift and lower eye surgery, is this possible if I’m a type 2 diabetic on medicatio
is this possible if I’m a type 2 diabetic on medication?
Nov 16, 2018
Thank you for your question. While type 2 diabetes and the medications you are taking may be a concern for a plastic surgeon, but they are not a contraindication for elective surgery. You should have clearance from your primary care physician and others working with you to treat both your diabetes and your previous TIA to ensure surgery is a safe option for you. You will want to select a board-certified, experienced plastic surgeon who will work with the rest of your medical team to address…
Could you get a nose job, eyelid surgery, and boob job in one go?
Could you get a nose job, eyelid surgery, and boob job in one go?
Nov 16, 2018
Hello and thanks for your inquiry. Combining plastic surgery procedures is actually quite common, since this can reduce both the cost and recovery time for the patient. That said, there are guidelines to follow when choosing this approach. First, select a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in the procedures you want to have done. Second, talk to this surgeon at length about your concerns and desired outcome so your expectations are adequately met with the procedure….
Do I need a face lift or fillers?
Do I need a face lift or fillers?
Nov 16, 2018
Hello and thanks for your question. At your age, I would not recommend surgical correction, particularly since you are also a smoker. Nicotine can increase risks during and after surgery and interfere with incision healing. Dermal fillers may be a good nonsurgical option for you, since there are numerous formulations specifically designed to address nasolabial folds. This procedure is relatively quick to perform, and results appear almost immediately. You should enjoy your refreshed…
I hate my new nose. What can I do?
I hate my new nose
Nov 16, 2018
Thanks for your question. While I understand your concerns, let me assure you it is much too early to be contemplating additional surgery on your nose. The healing process after rhinoplasty is an extensive one as the nose is subject to significant swelling that can take months to resolve completely. Your surgeon does appear to be taking an appropriate course of action with taping and steroid injections. I would give your recovery a full year to allow your nose to heal completely before…
CO2 Lasers for Facial Wrinkles and Skin Tightening?
CO2 Lasers for Facial Wrinkles and Skin Tightening?
Nov 16, 2018
Thank you for your question. While there can be a bit of skin tightening as a result of CO2 laser treatments, it’s more of a possible side effect – that’s not what they are primarily used for. CO2 laser treatments are used to address the surface of the skin – scarring, wrinkles and retexturing. If sagging skin is your biggest concern, there are several other options (including a facelift) that are better able to address the problem. My best advice would be to schedule a consultation with a b…
How Long Will Redness After CO2 Laser Persist?
How Long Will Redness After CO2 Laser Persist?
Nov 16, 2018
Thank you for your question. Most patients experience significant redness anywhere from four to eight weeks after their treatment, though it does begin to fade as time goes on. Some people will see a bit of redness for as long as six months, but this is also normal and can be easily covered with makeup. The other variable in the redness issue could be the topical treatments you are using – they’re pretty strong to be applying aggressively so soon after treatment, so that’s something you mig…
Best CO2 Laser Resurfacing
Best CO2 Laser Resurfacing
Nov 16, 2018
Thank you for your question. While there is a difference between the two lasers you mentioned (one is fully ablative, while the other is fractionally ablative), figuring out which one is “better” is hard to do in general terms. The better treatment is the one that offers you the best results with the least side effects or downtime. The other factor is the experience of the doctor performing the treatment. The device can only do what the operator tells it to, so you want to ensure that you…
