Does fat transfer take on the look and feel of the area it is being injected into? #fattransfer #facialfattransfer
Apr 13, 2020
Thank you for your question.  Facial fat grafting is a wonderful procedure in which your own fat tissue is used to volumize the rejuvenate the face.  You are correct in that fat has a 'soft' consistency but will and should have a natural feel once it is injected.  The fat graft can be injected onto muscle or other fat pads, and sometimes directly on top of bone.  Once it is injected, it will take on its own blood supply and survive, just like the natural fat cells in the body. There is also...

Am I a Deep Plane Facelift Candidate?#deepplanefacelift #facelift #necklift
Apr 13, 2020
Thank you for your question.  I am sorry to hear you are unsatisfied with your previous SMAS facelifts.  Based on your description and question, I believe you would be a good candidate for a deep plane facelift.  During this procedure, the deep tissues of the face and neck are elevated and moved into a more youthful position on the face.  This actually helps to reduce the overall tension on the skin during the lift.  In response to your question if a deep plane facelift tightens the skin too...

Apr 13, 2020
Thank you for your question.  I am sorry you are not satisfied with your procedure.  I am not familiar with the Biltmore lift, and would need to have more details on that.  This may have been a more minimally invasive procedure, which can sometimes does not address all areas of concern.  In response to your question, and based on your pictures, I believe you would be a good candidate for a formal deep plane face and necklift.  This will address the loose skin and banding in the neck and ...

What's the best treatment to remove brown, age spots? #IPL #BBL #Halo
Apr 13, 2020
Thank you for your question!  Pigmented lesions are something we see quite often in our practice, and are best treated through a multimodality approach.  A treatment or series of treatments with Sciton's BBL or IPL will start to diminish the pigmentation.  In addition a fractionated Erbium laser, or Halo laser, is also an excellent treatment to diminish these spots.  It is important to have a great skin care regimen as well, which includes a medical grade sunscreen, a retinoid or reti...

What kind of treatment can I have done for age spots after a Morpheus treatment? #BBL #IPL
Apr 13, 2020
Thank you for your question!  Treating age spots works well with a multi treatment approach.  Yes, a laser or light treatment works very well to diminish dark and age spots with through one or a series of treatments.  The Sciton BBL is a wonderful laser that targets pigment and redness and can also help to tighten the skin.  In addition to this, I always counsel my patients to start on a Vitamin C derivative serum, a retinol or retinoid, and medical grade sunscreen.  The key to treating...

Apr 12, 2020
Thank you for your question.  Based on your question and picture, it appears you have a small indented scar.  This should respond well to subcision with a small amount of hyaluronic acid filler or PRP.  Be sure to consult with a board certified provider for a full evaluation.  I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Will Halo laser successfully decrease the type of scarring I have? #halo #halolaser #sciton
Mar 16, 2020
Thank you for your question!  While I would need to see you in person for a full exam, it appears you have some residual acne scars on the cheek and temple areas.  The Sciton Halo laser is an excellent treatment to help reduce the appearance of these scars.  I also recommend Sciton's SkinTyte treatment in conjuction with the Halo for best results, as well.  The Halo is a hybrid laser that combines both an ablative fractional Erbium laser along with a non-ablative Erbium laser, as well. The a...
Am I a suitable candidate for buccal fat removal or would FaceTite be a better option?
Am I a suitable candidate for buccal fat removal or would FaceTite be a better option? #buccalfat #buccalfatremoval
Mar 11, 2020
Thank you for your question!  I would need to see you in person, but it appears you would be a good candidate for buccal fat removal.  While I wouldn't say that it will give you a 'V-line', it will improve definition of the cheek bones and fullness in the lower face.  Buccal fat removal is performed through a small incision inside the mouth, and a pocket of fat is removed just behind the smile lines.  This incision is then closed with dissolvable sutures (stitches).Be sure to consult with ...
Is there a lot of pain after getting deep plane facelift and necklift with chin implant?
Is there a lot of pain after getting deep plane facelift and necklift with chin implant? #facelift #deepplanefacelift
Mar 11, 2020
Thank you for your question.  I would, in general, agree that a deep plane facelift does not cause a lot of discomfort.  You will feel tight afterwards, however.  Every patient is different, and everyone's pain level is different, as well.  Depending on the amount of work that you will be having done, this procedure can be done as an outpatient. Many of my patients can go home afterwards, and I see them the next morning.  It is also fine if you stay overnight, and some patients actually...
My Nose Doesn't Look Any Different from Before my Rhinoplasty?
Healing time after Rhinoplasty #nosejob #rhinoplasty #nashvillerhinoplasty
Mar 11, 2020
Thank you for your question.  I'm sorry you're having these concerns after your rhinoplasty procedure.  At 11 days postoperative, you will still have quite a bit of swelling, which will mask your overall results (temporarily).  This is enough to give some swelling on the dorsum (or bridge) of the nose.  Over the course of the next 6 months to 1 year, the remaining swelling in the nose will resolve.  Typically this will go away with time.Be sure to consult with your plastic surgeon about...

Would I need to be operated on for more definition and slight narrowing of my nose? #rhinoplasty #nosejob
Mar 11, 2020
Thank you for your question and congratulations on considering a rhinoplasty.  Based on your pictures, you may be a candidate for a tip rhinoplasty.  During this procedure, precise sutures are placed in the nasal tip cartilages to help narrow and rotate the tip.It is difficult to tell from your photographs the exact solution to your concerns; therefore it is important to consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty.  I hope that ...
Can weight loss of only 10 pounds reduce volume in face?
Can weight loss of only 10 pounds reduce volume in face?
Feb 24, 2020
Thank you for your question.  The 'short' answer to your question is that , yes, weight loss can certainly cause some volume loss in the face.  As you lose weight, it will be removed proportionally throughout the body, and this can be focused in the face and neck, as well. Quite often we will see patients in consultation for facelift after weight loss. Before 'regaining' this weight, I would recommend a consultation for face and neck lift (and possibly for autologous fat grafting).  A well e...

Ready for Facelift and Necklift #facelift #deepplanefacelift #minilift #necklift
Feb 24, 2020
Thank you for your question.  Congratulations on considering a face and necklift! This is a very rewarding procedure, and your questions are some that we hear quite often.  Based on your pictures and your concerns/questions, I would recommend having a face and necklift at the same time.  Quite often, in order to help shorten recovery time, our patients will ask if postponing the neck or facelift part of a procedure would be advantageous.  A lot of times, though, this will only extend the re...

How close can I realistically get to my goal in rhinoplasty? #rhinoplasty #nosejob
Feb 3, 2020
Thank
you for your question.  Based on your pictures and question, I would
say that would be a good candidate for a rhinoplasty.  An in person consultation is always the best way to address your concenrs and wishes for your nose.  However, the concerns you
raise (the height of the dorsum) can be addressed with an open rhinoplasty.  During this
procedure, the underlying cartilage and bone are reshaped and reduced in size
to help give more refined appearance to the nose.  Precise sutures can b...

How long must I wait after buccal fat pad reduction to get a mini facelift? #minifacelift #deepplanefacelift
Jan 28, 2020
Thank you for your question.  The wonderful news about having a buccal fact reduction and minifacelift is that they can be done at the same time.  This way, you would only have one recovery period.  If you have the buccal fat reduction perfomed first, I would counsel my patients to wait 4-6 months before having your minifacelift.  This way all swelling from your original surgery will be resolved.  I
would consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon
who speciali...
