Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty and which approach (open or closed) is best for me? (
Rhinoplasty Approach
Sep 29, 2020
You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. This operation will address the profile issues as well as refine the nose. The approach (external versus internal) really does not matter as both can give you excellent results. I tend to use the internal (endonasal) approach on primary rhinoplasty because it has no external scar and swelling goes away quicker in my opinion. Best of luck with your upcoming operation.
Mini facelift or non invasive procedure?
Minilift
Feb 18, 2020
Facial asymmetry is completely normal in most situations and unless there’s disfigurement we generally don’t /can’t do much to fix it. It looks like there is some jowling and excess skin on your photos so I would recommend a lift (lower face and neck) along with the liposuction. If there is actual hollowness in the tear trough areas versus skin discoloration I would recommend fat transfer there. Good luck.
Which treatment would be best to treat my drooping eyelids: Brow lift and or blepharo? (Pho
Eyelid Surgery
Feb 8, 2020
Based on the photos that you have provided I would recommend both a upper eyelid blepharoplasty as well as an endoscopic brow lift. One procedure is usually not performed instead of the other one. The upper eyelid blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelid. The brow lift repositions the eyebrows to make them look more youthful and it improves the asymmetry (one eyebrow higher than the other).I recommend seeking a consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who ...
Is there any way to remove my scar on my lip permanently?
Scar Revision
Jan 22, 2020
The goal of scar revision surgery is to improve the appearance.  The scar will never go away completely but it can be improved to the point where it is much less noticeable.  There are many different ways to do this. I encourage you to seek a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. Good luck.
Do I need a full face lift or just neck? I had a mid lift 10 years go. I am 61.
Face Lift
Dec 30, 2019
Based on the photos you've provided, you would benefit from a lower facelift with platysmaplasty (tightening of the neck muscle that causes banding).  You may also benefit from some volume augmentation in the mid face area. I encourage you to seek a consultation with a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon who specializes only on the face.  Best of luck.
My daughter's ent said I needed a facelift, several years ago. What are my alternatives?
Face Lift
Dec 30, 2019
Based on your photos and your limitations, the best option for you would be Ulthera.  It will give you a two year result and is completely non-surgical.  It will tighten your neck and jawline as long as you have good skin elasticity.  Best of luck with your decision.
How invasive is skin redrawing after a hematoma?
Revision Facelift
Dec 30, 2019
The answer to this question really depends on the extent and severity of the problem.  In some cases the problem can be resolved with a relatively simple procedure under local anesthesia. Other times, a more extensive procedure needs to be performed.  Without photos its difficult to asses.  I encourage you to seek a consultation with a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon who specializes only on the face. Best of luck.
How common is tachycardia during rhinoplasty and can it be managed?
Tachycardia
Dec 16, 2019
Exceedingly rare. Tachycardia during surgery is an effect (not a cause) of something else like an undiagnosed medical problem or use of epinephrine during surgery. It can happen during surgery and is controlled by the anesthesia provider if necessary.  Make sure your surgeon has the system in place to handle any medical issues should they arise during surgery. 
Is it a red flag if a board-certified anesthesiologist has 1 malpractice suit from 5 years
Lawsuit
Nov 25, 2019
When choosing a surgeon for elective cosmetic surgery, your comfort with the entire process is very important.  I don't know what correlation there is between having been sued and competence or results.  This applies to any physician because in today's society anyone can be sued for any reason.  I would fall back again on gut feeling here.  Best of luck.
Is a ear, nose and throat specialist that performs lots of septoplasty operations going to
ENT versus Plastic Surgeon
Nov 21, 2019
An ENT or Otolaryngologist is trained to perform septoplasty and rhinoplasty. A Plastic Surgeon is trained to perform rhinoplasty and septoplasty.  A Facial Plastic Surgeon is trained to do both operations as well and specializes only in the face.  I would look at before/after photos to ensure quality and look at the actual number of photos to ensure that the surgeon performs many of these procedures.  Revision rates vary from surgeon to surgeon but most importantly you want to make sure you...
Dark skin around eyes and saggy eyelids at 28?
Dark Shadows
Nov 13, 2019
Dark shadows under the eyes are usually caused by one of two things. Pigmentation in the skin or shadows. The shadows are usually caused by a bag under the eye which at your age is likely hereditary. There are always solutions to fix these problems. Whether it involves removing the fat that is causing the bag or using a filler to camouflage the bag is a decision for you and your surgeon. I recommend you seek a consultation with a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon. Best of luck.
Can this level of asymmetry be corrected by performing a tip rhinoplasty alone?
Tip Asymmetry
Oct 28, 2019
The short answer to your question is yes, a tip plasty can improve concerns in the tip alone.  However, the procedure must take into account that the tip must be in balance with the rest of the nose in order to appear natural.  In other words, if the tip is refined and narrowed, it must be done conservatively if the other parts of the nose are not going to be addressed.  I encourage you to seek a consultation with a board certified facia plastic surgeon who specializes in the face. 
Are there surgery options available for asymmetry in the underlying bone structure of the e
Facial Asymmetry
Oct 23, 2019
The short answer is no.  The face forms from two independent structures coming together in the center.  Because of this, it is aways asymmetric.  This asymmetry involves the skeleton as well as the soft tissues.  We can sometimes camouflage asymmetries if they are significant but that is a question for your certified facial plastic surgeon.  Best of luck.
Why is my face asymmetrical? Can it be fixed? I’m not talking perfect, just better.
Facial Asymmetry
Oct 3, 2019
The face is always asymmetric.  The goal of aging face surgery is to improve/turn the clock back on each side of the face so that it looks younger than it did prior to surgery.  Most asymmetries are due to skeletal differences in the face as the face forms from two distinct structures during embryonic development.  Because of this, the differences are not amenable to correction with soft tissue surgery such as a facelift. You should look younger and more refreshed after your surgery.  B...
What is the cause of my asymmetrical eyes and what can be done to fix them?
Facial Asymmetry
Sep 28, 2019
Facial asymmetry is very difficult to correct. We usually strive to correct problems by the side. As most causes of facial asymmetry are due to skeletal issues, we cannot correct those with facial soft tissue surgery. It is completely normal for one side of the face to be slightly different as compared to the other side. An example of this is one eye socket higher than the other or one ear higher than the other. Best of luck.
