Doctor's answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I had Botox in my masseter done around 5 days ago. When I eat & chew now my jaw muscles protrudes
Botox in Jaw Muscles
Jun 3, 2018
Botox in the master muscles can slim the lower third of the face and also help with jaw pain from excessive clenching. Early asymmetry after treatment is common as the muscles adapt. A follow-up treatment 2 weeks later can help target areas where the muscle has overcompensated. 
Solution and provider for crooked nose. My ENT said the tip is the problem.
Crooked nasal tip
Jun 3, 2018
A crooked tip like yours often is due to both a crooked septum as well as crooked and asymmetrical tip cartilages (lower lateral cartilages). During a rhinoplasty procedure, both your septum and tip cartilages can be modified to improve the symmetry of your tip and nostrils.
Dorsal hump and bump on nose reduction options?
Dorsal hump reduction
Jan 20, 2018
A dorsal hump reduction can be performed at the time of a septoplasty, turbinate reduction, and nasal valve repair. This combination of procedures is very common in my practice. If your goal is to leave the tip of your nose alone, your surgery would not be considered "intense" in any way.  
Rhinoplasty for deviated septum
Deviated septum and rhinoplasty
Jan 20, 2018
Surgery to correct a deviated septum is often covered by insurance. However, any additional cosmetic changes that a patient desires are not covered by insurance and are billed directly to the patient. In my practice, patients undergoing surgery to improve their breathing who also have cosmetic concerns usually pay between $6,000-$10,000 dollars. The price you were quoted does not seem unreasonable.
I fell while skiing after facelift
Facial injury after facelift
Jan 20, 2018
I would not expect there to be any damage to your facelift results 6 weeks after surgery. By 6 weeks the incisions and deep tissues should have healed well enough to withstand such an injury. I would still recommend you follow up with your surgeon so that he or she can assess your face and determine if any injuries are present.
(53-year-old) Is facelift without fat transfer good enough?
Great candidate for a facelift
Jan 20, 2018
Based on your concerns and goals, you appear to be a great candidate for a facelift.  Although I would also offer you fat grafting to improve your overall result, you would still see nice results if you only chose to proceed with the facelift. Obviously a consultation in person is essential before giving formal advice.
Did my surgeon stitch my columella wrong during my septorhinoplasty?
Incision healing after rhinoplasty
Oct 28, 2017
Incisions on the columella can have a certain degree of swelling over the first 1-2 weeks. I would allow your nose to heal further before becoming overly concerned with any asymmetries in the area. Your nostrils were quite asymmetric before surgery so some degree of asymmetry after surgery might be expected. 
I had a rhinoplasty and coughed a lot?
Coughing after rhinoplasty
Oct 28, 2017
Coughing after rhinoplasty that caused your nose to bleed should not affect your result. Share your concerns with your surgeon if something seems amiss. 
Did my surgeon do a bad job?
Was your rhinoplasty done poorly?
Oct 22, 2017
Without seeing before and after photos, I cannot say whether your result are "good" or "bad." The notion of having a rhinoplasty "undone" is not realistic. However, a targeted revision or correction of your results can often be achieved if your goals are realistic.
Should I get rhinoplasty?
Should you get a rhinoplasty?
Oct 22, 2017
Whether or not you should get a rhinoplasty is a decision that is entirely up to you. If the appearance and function of your nose are bothersome to you then yes, you could benefit from the procedure. In your case, your profile could be reduced and your tip refined and deprojected to create a better balance with the rest of your facial features. Because you have a stronger chin and jawline, you would want to avoid result that are too dramatic. If you are considering a rhinoplasty, meet wi...
Bulbous Nose Job - cost & procedure?
Rhinoplasty for a Bulbous tip
Oct 22, 2017
I routinely perform rhinoplasty for a bulbous nasal tip. Many patient are bothered by a tip that is too round, ball-like, or boxy. In most cases, other changes need to be made to the nose (bridge) in order to make sure the new tip is in harmony with the rest of the nose. On occasion, I will perform a tip rhinoplasty without making changes to the remainder of the nose. A full physical exam would be necessary in order to be able to give you further recommendations for your nose.
Irritated eyes after rhinoplasty - 2 months post-op.
Eye irritation after rhinoplasty
Oct 22, 2017
Irritation of the eyes immediately after rhinoplasty could be due to a corneal abrasion suffered during surgery. Irritation that develops two months after rhinoplasty would be unlikely to be related to the rhinoplasty. However, a through history and physical exam is the only way to know for sure whether or not your symptoms are related to your recent nasal procedure.
Internal or external nasal valve collapse? Are they one in the same?
Nasal valve collapse after rhinoplasty
Oct 22, 2017
When a dorsal hump is removed, particularly in patients with short nasal bones, a situation can be created where the middle portion of the nose "collapses" unless special cartilage grafts called spreader grafts are used to support the middle vault of the nose (internal nasal valves). Also, when the nasal tip cartilages are aggressively narrowed, the area of the nose above the nostrils (external nasal valves) can collapse inward unless care is taken to preserve support in this region...
Rhinoplasty question: I'm concerned about a hole on the right top side of my nose next to my eyebr
Bony irregularity after rhinoplasty
Oct 22, 2017
It sounds like you are noticing an irregularity in the bone. When a bony hump is removed, rough edges or ridges can be created which can often be felt with the finger.  In some cases an "open roof" deformity can be created if bone on the bridge is removed and the adjacent nasal bones are not moved towards the midline to close this gap. Share your concerns with your surgeon who will have a better sense whether this is concerning or a normal finding.
I had a mini face and neck lift almost two months ago. I suffer from pinching from what I suspect
Mini facelift sutures
Oct 16, 2017
Although most sutures used in facelift sutures are dissolvable and will dissolve over 3-6 months, some surgeons use permanent sutures. It is best to discuss your symptoms with your surgeon as he or she will know what sutures they used and whether the sutures are the likely cause of your pinching sensation.
