Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Does Voluma attract water?
Voluma and water
May 23, 2023
Voluma is a hyaluronic acid filler, and one property of these fillers is that they do attract water. This helps in the plumping effect of the fillers, however it can lead to complications if fillers are not placed in the correct position. It is recommended you discuss with your treating provider on their preference for filler type.
Running, jumping and HIIT workouts after facelift?
Exercise following facelift
May 23, 2023
We typically recommend that patients wait three weeks following facial surgery prior to resuming physical activity, however this advice may differ from your treating surgeon and it is recommended that you discuss with them.
Is Sculptra a good option for me?
Sculptra after facial volume loss
May 22, 2023
Sculptra can be a great adjunct for volume replacement in patients who have had recent weight adjustments within their face. Be aware that it may take several treatments to achieve correction. An in office examination and discussion with a treating provider is recommended.
Botox for one smile side?
One sided injection for “gummy” smile
May 22, 2023
It is possible to place a neuromodulator on only one side, but given the dynamic nature of the muscles and smile caution should be had on achieving perfect symmetry. Be sure to discuss with your treating provider as to their opinion.
Do I need to dissolve my filler before getting a chin implant?
Chin filler
May 22, 2023
Our recommendations, especially if we did not place the filler, would be to dissolve the filler prior to surgery. This allows us to pick the chin most appropriate for your profile. It is not an absolute contraindication, so discussion with your treating provider is recommended.
Will SMAS facelift help correct my facial asymmetry?
Facial asymmetry
May 22, 2023
Some degree of facial asymmetry is normal. Volume augmentation with the use of intra-dermal fillers may aid in correcting slight asymmetry. Major surgery may not be indicated because the ability to achieve perfect symmetry would still be limited to underlying anatomy. An in office consultation with a treating provider is recommended to review your specific concerns.
What kind of doctor can remove this sebaceous cyst on face without leaving a big scar?
Cyst along jawline
May 22, 2023
Several types of cysts can be found on the head and neck, with one of the most common being an epidermal inclusion cyst. Given the nature of the cyst being related to the skin, an external incision is most common. Cysts can enlarge, so one way to mitigate the size of the scar is to address the cyst early. Several different providers are capable of cyst removal. You can consider discussion with a primary care provider to review your options.
Can I dye my hair prior to having a cyst removed from my scalp?
Cyst removal and hair dye
May 22, 2023
For standard surgical procedures, we advise that hair dye prior to the procedure is okay. We do typically recommend waiting to dye your hair for a period of time following the procedure which is influenced by which surgery you had and where the incision lines are placed. It is recommended you discuss with your treating provider prior to making this decision.
Ear revision after facelift ?
Abnormal ear position
May 22, 2023
We will, on occasion, see patients who have unfavorable scars from prior surgery. Depending on several factors, re-excision may be necessary to improve the scars. It is recommended you have a discussion with a surgeon with facial plastic surgery experience, preferably an in office examination.
Am I candidate for macroatia/ear pinning?
Ear altering surgery
May 17, 2023
Ear pinning, or otoplasty, is a procedure used to bring the outside portion of the ear closer to the head. This can be done through several different methods, depending on surgeon preference. Additionally, some patients may desire earlobe reduction or alteration at the same time. An in office exam and discussion with a surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended.
Is it safe for a 72 year old to get a chemical peel?
Age and chemical peels
May 17, 2023
Fortunately, your age is not a limiting factor for chemical peel. There are several risk factors depending on the type of peel used, therefore a history and physical examination performed by your provider is advised.
Face is different from each side. What can I do about it?
Facial asymmetry
May 17, 2023
Facial asymmetry is common, with one side of the face having the appearance of less volume due to bony differences. The use of filler augmentation can aid in balancing symmetry. Discussion with a treating provider including an in office examination is recommended.
Does Endoscopic Brow Lifts Reduce Forehead Wrinkles?
Forehead Wrinkles
May 17, 2023
Depending on the type of brow lift performed, some surgeons will divide the muscles associated with wrinkles of the glabella. Discussion with a treating surgeon on types of brow lifts as well as your concerns is recommended.
Should I let my eyebrows grow in before a brow lift?
Eyebrow growth prior to surgery
May 17, 2023
There are many factors that may impact the type of procedure you have as well as the extent of surgery. If you plan to continue to shape your brows in the same way after surgery then it may be best to continue as you are. It is recommended you have this discussion with your treating surgeon as their opinion may differ.
Do you have to get Fillers dissolved before Brow lift and Upper Eyelid Surgery?
Filler prior to brow lift
May 17, 2023
While not an absolute, many surgeons prefer to have fillers dissolved prior to surgical alteration of a particular area of the face. We recommend physical examination and discussion with your treating provider to best address your particular needs.
