Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I was thinking of a facelift but not sure. What can I do to look better?
Rank order your list of asthetic concerns.
Nov 11, 2021
I’m glad to hear that the finasteride is helping. Note that it can indeed be confusing if you just leave it to the doctor to tell you what you need. I prefer that my patients give me a rank-ordered list of what specific features bother them the most, then the next most, etc. That way we can focus our approach on what’s going to deliver the most bang for the buck. Is it the neckline and the early jowls? Then a facelift might be appropriate. Is the nose bothersome? If so, what specifically? Do…
How is it determined what size to reach with the nose because I don’t want it to be too small or r
Rhinoplasty: deciding on the size of the nose
Nov 10, 2021
I prefer to do some computer simulations for my patients to help give them a realistic idea of what I think can be done with their nose with rhinoplasty, especially after assessing skin thickness. That way, we can also make sure that the patient and I agree on the overall size, width, rotation, projection, etc. of the nose beforehand. Of course, actual results will vary, but the simulations are meant to be pretty close to reality. All the best,

Tip revision surgery – what is recovery like as far as returning to activity, and how much swellin
Recovery after revision rhinoplasty
Nov 10, 2021
Ask your surgeon for specific recommendations, but generally speaking the recovery from a revision rhinoplasty should be similar to the first surgery. The exception would be if rib grafts were anticipated, which adds the nuisance of some chest discomfort and additional incision care. I usually let my patients do cardio at one week (running, hiking, etc.), but weights and heavy lifting should be delayed for at least two weeks post-op. Contact sports or any activity where the nose might get…
What can be done about my wide nose?
Open structure rhinoplasty for a wide nose
Nov 10, 2021
Rhinoplasty can address all of those concerns. I prefer the open rhinoplasty approach since I think this gives me better access and control of the cartilage of the tip and mid-third and it allows for more precise fixation of any cartilage grafts, dome sutures (to provide a narrower tip), etc. If you’re thinking of having a rhinoplasty, meet with at least a couple of surgeons to get their opinions on what specifically can be done once they’ve examined you in person. Make sure the surgeon does…
Revision rhinoplasty to widen nasal bones and bridge?
Widening an overly narrow nose.
May 13, 2021
Depending on your specific anatomy, it may be possible to widen the nose surgically with spreader grafts, onlay grafts, and other techniques. However, if the desired correction is minor enough, a non-surgical approach with injectable fillers may be a good option. In those cases, I usually start with a temporary filler like Juvederm to make sure that the patient and I like how it’s going to look. If that’s effective, then the results can be made more long-lasting with a permanent filler like…
Am I a good candidate for a rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty to correct the tension nose
May 6, 2021
Your observations about your nose are accurate. Fortunately, these are all common problems that I encounter with patients’ noses and these are all amenable to rhinoplasty. Generally speaking, the height of the dorsum needs to be brought down, the nasal tip needs to be de-projected (brought in closer to the face), the nasal spine may need just a little deepening, and the septum probably needs to be straightened since it seems like the right medial crural foot is winging out creating…
I have a bump on one side of my nose, it used to not be there- I’m concerned
Possible infected cyst
May 6, 2021
“Diagnosis before treatment,” as we say. You should probably see an ear, NOSE, and throat surgeon about this soon. He/she can better determine what it might be first (probably an inflamed or infected inclusion cyst). ENT surgeons also have the broadest expertise in the surgical management of the nose, as would a facial plastic surgeon.

All the best,

Crooked nose after revision rhinoplasty. Should I get a third surgery?
Crooked tip after rhinoplasty
May 6, 2021
Sorry to hear about your results from surgery. It seems unlikely that the tip will improve over time, but it’s still important to wait at least a year from the revision before proceeding with yet another operation. In addition to being twisted at the tip, the tip is also somewhat pinched. Even in the best of hands, this would be a difficult revision, but there’s probably some room for improvement particularly if there’s still some cartilage from your septum that can be used for the required…
Unhappy upper bleph. Advice?
Undercorrected upper blepharoplasty
May 6, 2021
From the photos, it does look like the upper blepharoplasty was under-corrected. I can only guess at the reasons for that. Perhaps the surgeon was overly cautious and hesitant to take the amount of tissue necessary. There also appears to be some degree of brow ptosis (brow droop) as well. Improvement of the appearance of your eyes might require both a browlift AND a revision of the upper blepharoplasty. A board-certified facial plastic surgeon or an oculoplastic surgeon should be able to…
Is my nose too thick for reduction rhinoplasty?
Thick skin rhinoplasty
Dec 30, 2020
As you’ve correctly pointed out, thick skin can be a major limiting factor in what can be done with rhinoplasty. It’s hard to tell from the photos how thick the skin is, but during an in-person consultation, the surgeon should specifically assess your nasal skin thickness as part of the exam (if the surgeon doesn’t, run!). Only then can you have a reasonable idea of what you might expect from a rhinoplasty. You might also consult with a dermatologist to see what other options you have…
Is it worth getting my deviated septum repaired?
Deviated septum repair.
Dec 30, 2020
If it’s bothering your breathing enough, it’s quite worthwhile to have your deviated septum repaired. Note that from the photo you appear to have what’s called a caudal end deformity of the septum. This can require a slightly different approach than a typical septoplasty operation (i.e., usually creating a caudal end strut graft to avoid tip collapse or columellar retraction). But this is a relatively straightforward outpatient operation done at a surgery center. Costs vary widely, but for a…
What method of rhinoplasty would I need to “shrink” my nose?
Open structure rhinoplasty
Dec 30, 2020
I tend to prefer the open structure rhinoplasty approach for nearly all my rhinoplasty patients. That approach allows for the full range of techniques to reshape the nose to the patient’s preferences. Reducing the overall size of the nose, eliminating the bump, refining the tip, etc. are all possible. Find a doctor whose primary focus in plastic surgery is rhinoplasty.

All the best,

One eyelid is lower than the other. Any advice?
Ptosis repair.
Dec 30, 2020
The photos suggest you have eyelid ptosis, worse on your right than your left. This is best treated surgically by an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) who specializes in oculoplastic surgery. In experienced hands, it’s generally a fairly straightforward fix.

All the best,

Is my already thin nose a candidate for rhinoplasty?
Very correctable problems with rhinoplasty.
Sep 9, 2020
Thanks for the good pictures of your nose! Yes, these are problems that can be addressed with rhinoplasty. I tend to prefer the open approach for this since it allows better control of the tip, particularly when the tip needs to be de-projected and the nostrils shortened. These are, however, somewhat more complicated aspects of rhinoplasty, so be sure to find someone whose practice is primarily facial surgery with a lot of rhinoplasty experience.

All the best,
–David C. Pearson, M.D….

Is it safe to box after ear pinning surgery?
No boxing after otoplasty.
Sep 9, 2020
If you intend to keep your ears looking good, I wouldn’t recommend it unless you intend to wear good quality sparring headgear that protects ears at all times when you’re in the ring. As you seem to suspect, you’re likely to damage your surgical result and given your tendency to form keloids additional correction would be hazardous.

All the best,
