Uneven breasts after breast augmentation. What can I do?
Uneven breasts
Jan 24, 2016
Hi,- Consider carefully the options with your Plastic Surgeon with respect to changing implants as revision surgeries carry with them the same risks as the original surgery- Consulting with a certified plastic surgeon is important- Often asymmetry in breasts is a bigger concern to you than it may be to anyone else who views your breasts and depending on the level of asymmetry a decision should be made regarding a revision surgery- Breast volume is not the only determinant…
Can you experience a droopy brow or droopy eyelid if frontalis and orbicularis oculi are injected with
Droopy brow and eyelid
Jan 17, 2016
Thank you for your question. These sequelae/complications of botox treatments are well known and described. The fact that both antagonistic muscles (the frontal and orbiculares oculi) have been injected simultaneously does not necessarily negate droop of the eyebrow or eyelid. This complication is most commonly due to migration of toxin to the eyelid levator muscle and this occurs due largely to the way in which the toxin is injected. These complications can happen…
Would I be a good candidate for fat transfer?
Lower Eyelid Hollows
Jan 6, 2016
Hi,The answer to your question is that part of the surgery required to correct the lid-cheek dysjunction which is prominently seen on the photographs would be fat grafts. However, a full assessment by a plastic surgeon would determine the toughness of the lower lid, the relationship of the eyeball to the cheek bone and the activity of the muscles surrounding the eyelids. Lastly the amount of protruding fat and septal laxity will also have to be assessed and based on this a…
Does anyone think I can have implants only without lift to make my boobs look fuller?
Breast Lift and Augment
Jan 6, 2016
Hi,Thanks for your question. This is a common presentation where breasts have a ptosis and also require an augmentation simultaneously. In your case, there is a need to correct the ptosis, and this would entail making incisions around the areolar, with or without a vertical scar component. The extent of the lift scarring will depend on a thorough examination, your wishes with respect to implant size and breast size and the surgeons preference. A simple augmentation…
Botox caused hollows under eyes. Can it be fixed?
Botox and under eye hollows
Jan 1, 2016
The photograph you have taken does not allow anyone to fairly evaluate the effects or ill-effects of the botox treatment. Botox as a neurotoxin can weaken lower lid musculature is injected in the area too close to the margin of the lower eyelid, and this may inadvertently lead to variations in muscular activity and hence differences which are then interpreted as hollows. It is best to wait out the period of botox efficacy (4 months) and then reassess the entire facial/periocular…
How to erase or improve wrinkles on lower eyelid?
Fine lines in the lower lid
Dec 19, 2015
A difficult area to treat with predictable good results. I would advise retinol as well as fruit acid peels at your age so as to get moderate skin tightening effects over a long period of time. Understand that no non invasive treatment is going to sort out the lines in a single episode nor is it going to permanently stop lines from recurring. Therefore do the basics of skincare right in this case…… good antioxidant, sunblock and moisturise. My preferred under the…
Breast implant bottoming out?
Bottoming out of Implants
Dec 19, 2015
I agree with Dr Subbio in that depending on what your pre-operative breast shape and position was, it is up to you to decide whether the new shape bugs you or not. As the nipples are “star gazing”, technically they are bottomed out and a procedure to redefine the inframammary fold would have to be undertaken, with the attendant risks of such a procedure being clearly explained to you. It would be best to follow up with your surgeon and weigh up the pros and cons of revision…
