Doctor's answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
One eye is more hooded and droopy than the other. What options are available to correct thi
Eyelid hooding and drooping
Jan 29, 2020
You have excess skin in both upper eyelids but more on the left. A difference in the amount of skin in the eyelids is actually common. Upper blepharoplasty would be done by removing more skin on the left side than the right in an effort to minimize the hooding/drooping and balance the eyelids. You also appear to have fullness in the inner corner of the upper eyelid, particularly on the left side. This is typically due to an overly prominent fat pad that can be reduced.
Asymmetry in my maxilla & nose: I didn't have this as a child. What are the causes and poss
Maxillary asymmetry
Jan 29, 2020
Although the single provided photo makes complete assessment difficult, the asymmetry in your maxilla is apparent. The asymmetry is due to a difference in the vertical growth between the right and left sides. This has resulted in what is called an occlusal cant where the horizontal plane of the teeth is angled rather than level. When there is asymmetry in the maxilla, there is typically asymmetry in the mandible as well. The maxillary asymmetry also can result in...
Wide nose with bump - do I need to have tip work done?
Addition of tip to rhinoplasty
Jan 21, 2020
Based on your frontal photograph with your face relaxed, I would say that tip refinement is not imperative and that you should be able to obtain a very nice result only addressing the dorsum. In my opinion, if you are happy with your tip (or any body part), you should not change it unless there is a clear imbalance with the rest of the nose.
Want excess skin removed under eyes. Can this be achieved with transconjunctival alone? (ph
Transconjunctival blepharoplasty and skin
Jan 20, 2020
A purely transconjunctival blepharoplasty only addresses the fat that causes "puffiness." Treatment of excess skin can be managed by excision (resulting in a well-hidden scar under the lashes) or non-surgical means such as laser or Plasma Pen. It appears that you may be a candidate for non-surgical management of the skin. If you have loose/excess skin in your lower eyelids after this, touch-up with skin excision can be done under local anesthesia.
Is a lower blepharoplasty the best option for me?
Lower blepharoplasty
Jan 15, 2020
Lower blepharoplasty is an acceptable option for you. Based on the photo, I would recommend conservative transconjunctival fat removal or repositioning to reduce the tear troughs. You do not appear to need skin removal. Fat grafting in the eyelids can be risky because of visible lumps, which are very difficult to correct.
I'd like a smaller nose, but is my skin too thick for it? What could be done to my nose? (p
Thick skin in rhinoplasty
Jan 15, 2020
I feel that your aesthetic goals for rhinoplasty can be realistically met. Your nose can be made to look smaller by reducing the bump on the bridge of your nose and refining your tip. Thick skin can diminish the degree of visible change in the tip that is achieved at the cartilage level. However, I would anticipate that you would still see improvement as long as your surgery is done by an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon.
What can I do about deviated septum following orthognathic surgery?
Deviated septum after orthognathic surgery
Jan 15, 2020
When a deviated septum and crooked nose develop after upper jaw orthographic surgery, either septoplasty was not done or it was carried out inadequately. Septoplasty, and possibly rhinoplasty, are then necessary to improve breathing and correct the nasal deformity. To restore proper visibility of your upper teeth, upper lip shortening is an option for you. Although I am not advocating this, repeat orthographic surgery to undo the undesired/unfavorable...
Is there a superior suture material and technique for better upper blepharoplasty results?
suture techniques in blepharoplasty
Jan 14, 2020
The most important factor in achieving the optimal scar after blepharoplasty (or any other procedure) is the skill of the surgeon and his or her attention to detail. The particular suture used or the closure technique utilized is of limited importance. However, timing for suture removal may affect the outcome; sutures left in place too long could leave marks. Some dissolvable sutures may not "fall out" early enough and could leave the track marks I am...
Will ptosis repair surgery help my eyes and give them a better look, especially when smilin
Improving appearance of eyes
Nov 24, 2019
Karl,
Based on the single photo that you provided, I appreciate mild ptosis of the upper eyelids that is slightly asymmetric. What stands out more to me is the heaviness of your brows related to brow ptosis. The distance between your upper eyelid lashes and the lower edge of the brows is very small, compromising the aesthetics of the eyes. Optimal improvement would be provided by a brow lift and upper eyelid ptosis repair.
Would I be able to get a decent result with rhinoplasty?
Result after rhinoplasty
Nov 24, 2019
To provide you with a more concise answer, I would need to know the concerns that have you have regarding your nose and what your aesthetic goals are. Nevertheless, judging by your photos, I feel that several improvements can be predictably achieved with a very nice result. Certainly, thick skin in the nasal tip reduces the degree of refinement that is created at the level of the cartilage so this must be understood.
Would an alarplasty be good to slim down this bulbous nose or just a bulbous tip procedure?
Bulbous nose
Nov 24, 2019
Matthew,
Creating a smaller lower nose would involve trimming the tip cartilages and shaping the tip with sutures. The nose will also look smaller by reducing the the width of the base of the alae. These procedures together will allow for a more balanced look to your nose. I would do not one without the other.
Will skin excision and canthopexy help the lower eyelids look better on people over 60?
Lower lid skin excision and canthopexy
Nov 24, 2019
Providing treatment recommendations requires a comprehensive physical examination and making the proper diagnoses. This will vary from patient to patient, and the surgical plan is tailored to the individual needs of each patient. Often, patients over the age of 60 will have excess skin or fat prolapse that needs to be addressed. Some, but not all, will also benefit from tightening or suspension of the lower lid, which may involve a canthopexy or other procedure.
I have a wonky lower eyelid and some swelling under my eye, can you advise if I should do a
Wonky lower eyelid
Nov 24, 2019
It is very difficult to judge the swelling in the lower eyelid and make any recommendations. However, you appear to have excess laxity of the lower lid resulting in retraction/ectropion. This can be surgically corrected and would involve a lower eyelid tightening procedure.
Why is one of my eyelids bigger and more swollen than the other? How do I fix it?
One eyelid bigger and more swollen
Nov 24, 2019
You have various asymmetries involving the periorbital area but these are very mild and normal. You have a slightly greater amount of skin in the left upper eyelid that could be addressed by a conservative upper blepharoplasty. Whether this will meet your expectations is uncertain. Nobody has perfect symmetry so please do not be bothered by this.
Can revision lower bleph improve my eyes or is this as good as it gets? What is the best wa
Revision lower blepharoplasty
Nov 24, 2019
It appears that there may be persistent fat prominence. However, being 7 months postop, you are still healing/recovering. I would recommend allowing at least a full year for recovery before judging the outcome. A revision, if you are inclined, may be appropriate if the swelling is still present.
