How safe is giving a patient a shot of Demerol & 10mg of valium before a mini face lift? I’ve read
How safe is giving a patient a shot of Demerol and Valium for a mini lift
Dec 1, 2023
Mini facelifts tend to give mini results, and we rarely perform them for that reason.A Mini facelift can be performed under local anesthesia, with sedation, or by an anesthesiologist. Just depends on patient safety, and comfort.
Under eye wrinkles/folding skin – what to do?
Under eye wrinkles when smiling, what to do?
Nov 30, 2023
The determination about removing extra skin on the lower lids is made at rest, not one smiling. An in person consultation would be required for that. Try placement of some Botox in your crows feet, which may help.
Bossae, able to be fixed with a revision?
Bossa, able to be fixed with a revision?
Nov 29, 2023
The bossa are the result of your tip cartilages that have had some type of procedure done to them with very thin skin. A revision rhinoplasty can reduce the appearance of those. An in person examination and a copy of the operative report would be very helpful to understand what was accomplished in the primary procedure.
Closed Rhinoplasty to deproject/ reduce length of a long ethnic nose?
Closed rhinoplasty to reduce the length of a ethnic nose
Nov 29, 2023
In our practice for over 30 years, we have only performed closed rhinoplasty with excellent results. All of the incisions are placed on the inside of the nose. No external incisions are required, no painful packing is required either. Digital computer imaging of your nose upon your facial features would also be helpful in the education process to understand what can and cannot be accomplished. Study your perspective surgeon’s before and after closed rhinoplasty photo gallery to make sure…
Genioplasty or chin implant for chin recession?
Genioplasty or chin implant for chin recession
Nov 28, 2023
A genioplasty is performed by an oral surgeon under general anesthesia in a hospital setting with an overnight stay at the hospital, and is usually performed when the teeth are significantly out of alignment. A chin implant is performed under local anesthesia in the office setting, which takes about 30 minutes and is much less invasive.
