Eligible for shorter nose? I always thought the tip of my nose was too long and now I’m ready
Rhinoplasty
Jul 25, 2019
Hello Goodlife22 and thank you for your question. Based on your photos you are definitely a great candidate for a rhinoplasty to deproject and straighten your nose, and help you get the tip aesthetics you are looking for. I suggest seeing a rhinoplasty expert in consultation who can show you before and after photos of their prior patients. In my practice I use a 3D imager which allows me to manipulate patient photos according to known surgical techniques to give my patients an idea of what…
How risky is a thick-tipped septoplasty?
thick skin
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Enthusiastic306 and thank you for your question. Thick skin does not make septorhinoplasty risky – it only covers the underlying changes made to the bony and cartilaginous structure of the nose during rhinoplasty more than thin skin. Therefore small changes such as tip refinement may be less noticeable than with thin skin, which is sometimes a good thing! Also thick skin does not always “shrink” down after reduction rhinoplasty as quickly as thin skin, and postoperative swelling may l…
I have no chin tissue, it makes the profile of my face look awful, is there anything I can do
Chin aesthetics
Jul 24, 2019
Hi Nathanboek and thank you for your question. Chin aesthetics are best assessed by looking at height, width, and projection compared to the rest of the face, including the nose. Sometimes underlying orthognathic issues can contribute to chin appearance, so it is important to have your bite and mandible position evaluated by a facial plastic surgeon or dental colleague. If your bite is normal, there are several options for improving the way your chin looks. You could consider botox for an…
What can I do about my drooping lower eyes?
Drooping lower eyelids
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Amanibarrie and thank you for your question. Excessive scleral show, when the whites of your eyes show too much, can happen for a number of reasons. In older people we see this due to laxity of the tissues with age. In someone young like you, this is less likely. It may be due to genetics or the anatomy of your eye, periorbital tissues, and facial skeleton. If you have always had this look to your eyes, or if your parents or siblings have a similar look to their eyes and eyelids, this…
What does it mean when doctors say my nasal hump is caused by a combination of both genetics
Dorsal hump
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Celiacelia and thanks for your question. I often have patients with deviated septums or evidence of nasal trauma who have no recollection of any past major facial trauma. I also see many patients with facial trauma and evidence of fractures who don’t have any trouble breathing or notice any deformity. There have been some reports of nasal deformity in newborns that are thought to be due to pressure on the face while the fetus is intrauterine, or from pressures exerted on the face d…
Ethnic rhino problems. Is this inevitable if you want a smaller nose?
Ethnic rhinoplasty
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Jamilaqeera and thank you for your question. Ethnic rhinoplasty, or rhinoplasty procedures performed on non-Caucasians, can be tricky because idealized nasal aesthetics have classically been based on the Caucasian nose. However, having a pinched or overdone look is definitely NOT inevitable with ethnic rhinoplasty! Standards of beauty are changing and it is important to pick a facial plastic surgeon who understands the anatomy of your nose and can assess whether the changes you want …
For how long can one safely be under general anesthesia?
Anesthesia duration
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Jelllyb and thank you for your question. In short, if you are a relatively healthy person and have not had issues with general anesthesia in the past, you should be fine undergoing a procedure under general anesthesia for 6+ hours. There is no medical limit to general anesthesia, and the human body can be sedated for extended periods of time. I know many patients who have been under general anesthesia for 12+ hours for extremely intricate major surgeries who have recovered well…
Lengthening, dorsal augmentation, pinched tip, alar retraction. Can all these be fixed using
Cartilage grafts
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Hinakhan27 and thank you for your question. In short – yes, nasal lengthening, dorsal augmentation, and a pinched/retracted tip/ala can all be fixed through structural cartilage grafting, and all in one operation. In a first time rhinoplasty we can typically get enough cartilage from your septum to use for grafts. However in patients like yourself who have had prior nasal surgery, sometimes there is not enough cartilage remaining in the nose to use, and we have to take cartilage from t…
Complex rhinoplasty? Treatable nose flaws?
Complex rhinoplasty
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Rainbowsunshinee and thank you for your question. The small things you mention about your nose sound like some of the most common complains patients come to me about for rhinoplasty evaluation. Rhinoplasty surgery is incredibly dynamic and can make the small changes you are looking for – narrowing the bridge of the nose, improving length and rotation, and finessing nasal tip and nostril aesthetics. It is completely natural to feel concerned you won’t have a good result because you thi…
Removal of cheek implants?
Cheek implants
Jul 24, 2019
Hello Rainbowsunshinee and thank you for your question. Many people experience midface volume loss with aging or just want more fullness in their cheeks. Cheek implants come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes and can even be customized to give you the exact amount of augmentation you desire. If you later change your mind or want a change in size, they can be easily removed or switched out for a different size implant with an experienced facial plastic surgeon. If you did experience any…
I have a long narrow face that’s starting to become more bottom heavy and lacks dimension. Wh
Midfacial enhancement
Nov 2, 2017
Thank for your question. Your concerns and observations are consistent with aging of the midface, and loss of your facial fat pads. We have excellent long-lasting and reversible solutions that can be offered in the clinic setting. In our hands, Voluma is a great strategy to address this volume loss. Enhancing the malar region can help reduce age-related changes of the lower eyelid, nasolabial fold, and jowl regions. Additionally, it provides the youthful heart-shaped appearance that you wish…
Can Botox lessen the effects of other fillers?
Botox effect on filler
Nov 2, 2017
Thank you for your question. Typically, we would expect botox to enhance the longevity of a filler, as there would be less movement in the area. I would recommend close follow up and possibly photographic review with your injecting physician to discuss your concerns. 
Age spot removal options?
Monitoring required
Oct 27, 2017
Thank you for your question. In our practice, anytime there is a new area of pigmentation, we want to be certain that it does not represent something that may be harmful. Often times a small punch biopsy can confirm that the lesion is benign and we can proceed with topicals and/or laser vs. light treatments to improve the appearance of the unwanted spot.  A board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon with skin cancer experience can help safely guide your management decisions. 
Is it possible for me to change my facial structure?
nasofacial changes
Oct 26, 2017
Your photograph certainly does not suggest a “round boring face”, however enhancements can be easily accomplished. Cheek augmentation with a reversible filler, a cheek implant, or lipotransfer can create the illusion of a narrower nose, and negate the need for rhinoplasty in a satisfied patient. However, rhinoplasty could enhance that result, and may also be appropriate as a stand alone effort. Many board certified facial plastic surgeons offer preoperative computer imaging to help better …
3 months post op ear otoplasty. Does this look normal?
Early concerns after otoplasty
Oct 26, 2017
Based on your photos, I can understand your concerns. However, your result is still likely to change over the next several months. It is important for you, and your surgeon to be disciplined as your result will continue to evolve.  Often times, simple office adjustments can be utilized to improve overcorrection, undercorrection, and asymmetry at appropriate time interval. I am certain that your Board certified facial plastic surgeon will advise you appropriately to optimize your outcome.
