This is not to say that surgeons cannot modify to achieve an outcome that is a little different than their typical ones, but it should give you a good indication of what your likely result will be. If you want a very refined nose, then the...

Fillers are the easiest way to try out changes to the facial shape and proportions. If you are uncertain as to what type of change would meet your goals, then this is definitely the best option, given that they eventually go away on their own or can be dissolved if you don't like the results. Down the line, you can consider implants in some places to have a more permanent outcome. For anything you want smaller, such as a nose, surgery is generally the only option.

How is Morpheus8 on light Asian skin?

Morpheus8 is safe for Asian skin
Jul 24, 2019

We have treated many Asian patients for skin tightening with Morpheus8. It has coated pins that deliver radiofrequency and is safe for all skin types. There should not be any type of pigmentation post procedure. Expect redness and goosebump like skin for a few days. I suggest reaching out to our office to speak with our nurse who specializes in treating ethnic skin .

Could I have a closed rhino or will a nose filler look good with my nose?

Liquid versus surgical Rhinoplasty
Jul 15, 2019

Liquid or 'non-surgical rhinoplasty' involves using filler to smooth out and build up the nose, making a bump disappear on the bridge or have the nose look narrower from the front. The best candidates are those with flat or small noses that need additional height in their bridge. When the nose has a very tall profile, surgical Rhinoplasty is a much better option, since it makes the nose smaller, not bigger.

Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty? I would like to have a more delicate and feminine nose.

Candidates for Rhinoplasty - almost everyone
Jul 12, 2019

Your expectations for Rhinoplasty are appropriate. When you say you want a more feminine nose, typically that means a lower profile with a supratip break and refinement from the frontal view. All of these are typically achievable with Rhinoplasty. The limiting factors are skin that is too thick to contour, which is uncommon, and soft cartilage, which is more common. Even in the setting of soft cartilage, grafts can be used to overcome this. Thickner skin will only limit the degree of...

How can I fill in this area near my eyes?

Filler to side of eye (lateral hollows)
Jul 7, 2019

Filler to the region of the lateral retinaculum is possible and preferable. I fill this area often and it gives a very nice and NATURAL result. The eyes look especially refreshed. When combined with temporal filling and/or filling of the platform underneath the eyebrow, results can be stunning.

Alternative to fillers? I degrade them too fast. I can’t keep spending over $10K a year to not

Fillers vs. surgery. What’s the tipping point?
Jun 22, 2019

Certainly for the eye area, surgery for upper or lower lids can give lasting corrections. Fat grafting can also be considered as part of an overall permanent strategy. If fillers aren’t lasting or you’re spending a lot of money, surgery should be considered for the long term. For lips, temporalis transfer or a lip lift can be considered. Fat grafting can also be considered for cheeks. Skin tightening can be very helpful for the jawline. So there’s a lot of alternatives you should explor...

Restylane under eyes created reverse panda effect/contours in cheeks that are hard to cover up

Fillers can bring in extra water
Jun 19, 2019

Especially in the eyes, the hydrophilic properties of hyaluronic acid fillers can cause an overfill. After waiting 2 weeks to allow settling, if the area is over filled, then a small amount of dissolving can be useful. Typically, you only need to remove about 10% to flatten the area nicely.

What treatment is there for lines down the side of chin?

Filler for Marionette Lines/Pre-Jowel Sulcus
May 20, 2019

Depressions or lines from the corner of the mouth to the jawline are common problems that are addressed nicely with filler. While they get worse typically when you smile, usually, there are contour depressions at rest, which is seen in your photos. Personally, I like Restylane Defyne best for this area, but other filler can also work nicely.

Is injecting Botox under eyes a new procedure for wrinkles?

Under eye botox
May 14, 2019

Traditionally botox is used under the eye in minute doses to help the ‘jelly roll.’ That is a bunching if the muscle under the eyelashes that can make the eyes look puffy. In some patients, small doses can help with horizontal lines while in others, a skin excision is needed.

Could I get my nose to be more symmetrical without changing the way it looks?

Straightening a Nose without changing it
May 13, 2019

If the upper part of the nose is crooked, then the nose can be centered without changing its shape. Sometimes, when the tip is crooked it can be straightened without tip surgery (polish foundation rhinoplasty). Other times, if the tip cartilages are very asymmetric, then tip surgery is needed. It is hard to tell from just a base view, but it appears you have some asymmetry. Tip surgery can be done and the degree of change in appearance can be minimized but not completely eliminated in that...

What are the disadvantages of using cartilage from a cadaver?

Advantages and Disadvantages of using Cadaveric Rib
May 9, 2019

Over the past few years, I have been increasingly using cadaveric rib over donor rib. There is a lot of support in the medical literature that it generally survives and resorbs minimally.Obviously, there is morbidity (negative effects) associated with an incision and a harvest, especially one that is visible on the chest wall. Other concerns, such as pneumothorax (air around the lung) are very small, as it is an extremely uncommon complication. Also, when you harvest a rib, it then has to ...

What does a “lateral” under eye filler entail and what type of filler should be used?

Lateral Orbit Fillers
May 6, 2019

Many people talk about the hollows under the eyes (or nasojugal crease) as an area for fillers. That is near the center of the eye near the nose. The lateral hollows are on the other side of the eye, towards the cheekbone. Hollows there are just as important for a youthful eye and go along with a high cheekbone. I tell my patients that hollows near the center make you look tired, but lateral hollows make you loom old. Both can be addressed with fillers.
