Eye bags weighing you down?
Sep 18, 2015
The question isn't do you have puffy eyes? But when do you have puffy eyes? Although 33 seems young there are some people who might benefit from minor fat removal through a surgical approach usually transconjunctival (from the inside). Those people look puffy all the time and even after a good night's rest. A thorough consultation is required to address the possible health reasons for puffy eyes before any surgery is contemplated. your picture does not show all of the lower lid fat pockets...

The question isn't do you have puffy eyes? But when do you have puffy eyes? Although 38 seems young there are some people who might benefit from minor fat removal through a surgical approach usually transconjunctival (from the inside). Those people look puffy all the time and even after a good night's rest.

39 is young!
Sep 18, 2015
The aesthetic consultation lasts about an hour for a reason. It is impossible to recommend anything but the most generic of plans based on a single photo or complaint. At 39 you will have many options for improvement but the real question is what exactly are your expectations? A thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner is your best starting point. Relax and take your time. As an experienced surgeon I can tell you things done right the first time can avoid all sorts of...
Can Restylane ingested make you sick?
Sickening
Sep 10, 2015
No it is not harmful to ingest. But I would not make a habit of it. obviously it is wasted product. Good luck and best wishes.
2 months since my blepharoplasty. There is still a hard lump. Will this eventually 100% go away?
Hard lump is hard to swallow
Sep 10, 2015
2 months is a relatively short time after blepharoplasty when there is an irregularity present. In my experience this occurs most often because of some blood trapped in a space either over the muscle or in your case it appears to be under the muscle. this area can remain firm for a long time as the lymphatic outflow can be diminished, especially after surgery. the time course for a bruise or swelling in another part of the body may not be relevant here. I am comfortable with the idea of...
Are there certain health conditions that will interfere with get a tummy tuck?
HTN and obesity do not mix with a tummy tuck.
Sep 10, 2015
While there are very few absolutes, hypertension and obesity should be considered relative contraindications for any kind of cosmetic abdominal surgery. Hypertension can increase the risk of coronary events and obesity will limit the amount of results you can achieve as well as increased risks of wound complications. Before consulting plastic surgeons you should visit with your primary care doctor to get your blood pressure under control and get on a proper diet and exercise regimen. After...
Why is the bottom right side of face drooping?
Popping tmj?
Sep 10, 2015
Obviously a picture cannot tell the whole story in this case. Before reading all of the answers and taking any sort of suggestions, I would seek the advice of a good dentist. They will be able to examine you and make sure you do not have a functional problem before you begin any cosmetic considerations. Remember form will follow function. Good luck best wishes
What is your oppion on using a Board certified surgeon in facial and reconstructive surgery for a
Surgeon in Facial and Reconstructive
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question. Both a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon are well qualified. However, what you should be looking for is the body of work that they have. Be sure that you are comfortable with photos and answers provided by your surgeon. Best of luck to you in your search.
Facelift before menopause or after?
facelift before or after menopause
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question. Menopause should not be a factor in your decision. A face and/or neck lift should be performed based on your desire and the benefit that it will give you. It is important to proceed only when you are mentally and physically ready for one. Consult with your surgeon so that he can evaluate if you will benefit from a face/ neck lift at this time. Good luck
Is the healing process longer for a male? How can the scars be hidden? (updated)
Male healing
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question. Recovery may be longer for a male due to thicker skin, muscles. The incision that a surgeon decides to make is based on that persons anatomy. This is very individualized. You should meet with a surgeon in person to determine what works best for you. Good luck.
Should I be concerned? Looking worse week by week after Facelift with removal of permanent filler
Looking worse
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question!This is something that should be raised with your surgeon. I'm sure that he/she would be happy to evaluate your concerns and any issues that you are having. Surgeons want to have patients that are pleased with their work, so I am sure that they will work to resolve this situation. Be sure to schedule a follow up. Good luck.
Can you change the shape of a person's face, square jawline?
Changing the shape of the face
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question. You can change the shape of your face through the use of dermal fillers, botox, and fat. Of course, it is best to meet with a master injector to be sure that product placement is exact. Enjoy your new self.
I am 6 weeks post op from facelift/platysmaplasty, can I go back to yoga/pilates?
Yoga/ Pilates
Mar 18, 2015
Thank you for your question. While recovery is individualized, it is best to consult with the surgeon who performed your surgery. Your surgeon will know when you can continue your normal activities best. Until then, Namaste!

Sensation
Mar 17, 2015
Thank you for your question. What you are describing is the return of nerve function after your facelift. It will most likely resolve itself. Be sure to see your surgeon, if it does not. Good luck
Horizontal ridges on cheeks after facelift. Can this be corrected with surgery?
