Jowls at 25? Would filler be an option?
Jowls at 25
Feb 5, 2021
Feb 5, 2021
Hi, I had a chance to review your questions and pictures. You are correct, facial features are way more genetic than they are aging at times. Based on your pictures, I think a little gentle filler around the jowls could help soften and hide the shadows created by your jowls and cheeks. You may also hear about a new “trend” of buccal fat pad excision to give that “chiseled cheeks” appearance. I caution you from obtaining a procedure like this. It will help you in the short term by slimming…
Best intervention for sagging, sunken area around mouth/chin?
Divots Along Chin
Feb 2, 2021
Feb 2, 2021
Hi, I reviewed your question and photos. Thank you for sending these in. These divots are a normal part of the aging process and can happen due to elasticity (stretchiness of skin) loss over time. Also, the anatomic variations by which your muscles attach in your face can also make you prone to dimples and divots. My recommendation is the use of a conservative amount of filler to hide the shadows caused by volume loss. You have to be careful in this area to not overfill, as this can cause a…
Lip lift vs lip filler vs lip flip – which is my best option?
Lip Filler vs Lip Flip vs Lip Lift
Jan 28, 2021
Jan 28, 2021
Hi, I read your inquiry and you have asked excellent questions! Filler to the lip can give the illusion of a shorter philtrum if placed correctly. I think a surgical procedure like a lip lift may be a little aggressive for you at this stage. It can leave younger patients with a “buck teeth” or “rabbit teeth” appearance. You were correct when you mentioned the lip flip procedure would not address your concerns. The lip flip is best for patients with long upper lips and a gummy smile. I really…
Should I get tear trough filler?
Tear Trough Filler
Dec 28, 2020
Dec 28, 2020
Hello, I had a chance to review your photo. In that particular angle, there does seem to be some hollowing around the tear troughs. However, this is best analyzed with a straight on picture and forward lighting. The way light angles at the tear trough can even make a normal eye appear hollowed. I do think some gentle tear trough filler, that is strategically placed by the right hands, can make a really nice improvement for you. I have developed a new procedure, called the BEL Procedure…
I have a flat face, a fat neck, and a droopy eyelid. How can I correct these?
Side Profile Improvement – Chin Augmentation and Submental Liposuction
Dec 27, 2020
Dec 27, 2020
Hi I reviewed your photos. On straight on (frontal) view, your face is actually very symmetric when assessing your horizontal 1/3’s and vertical 1/5’s. You have a great hair line, nice eyebrow position, and good cheek structure that will keep you looking young for a long time. I see what you mean by your side profile view. You have something called chin retrusion (weak chin) which limits how sharp your neck and jaw line appears. This is easily corrected with a custom contoured chin implant….
What is it about my face that makes it look so uneven? I think it is my chin but not certain.
Filler to Chin
Dec 24, 2020
Dec 24, 2020
I reviewed your photos with respect to a chin augmentation. Your chin is slightly retruded (smaller) due to the shape of your jaw (mandible), but it is not so severe that it would require aggressive surgery (mandibular advancement). The two best options for someone like you would be non-surgical (filler) or surgical (chin implant) chin augmentation. The benefit to both are they are completely reversible! Filler can be done in the office in under 20 minutes, but can only project the chin a…
Is there a risk of blindness while using injectables for under eye bags?
Bags Under Eyes
Dec 23, 2020
Dec 23, 2020
Bags underneath the eyes are usually treated with a multifaceted approach. Depending on your anatomy and the cause of the bags, surgery (blepharoplasty) can be indicated. However, if surgery is something you are not ready for, there are non-surgical options. CO2 laser can been used in the right patients for skin tightening and resurfacing. You had asked about filler around the eyes, which when done by the right, well-trained professional is very safe. It can help hide fullness and shadows…
