Which procedure would allow more teeth visibility when smiling? Have tried lip flip in the past. (
Lip flip Vs filler vs Lip Lift
Oct 2, 2022
Thanks for the question! There are a few techniques used for a botox lip flip. If your injector treated higher on the lip that could cause the lip to come down, vs treating at the border should cause it to roll outward.
I often use a little bit of filler in the lip when patients notice their lip “disappear” when they smile.

A surgical lip lift helps to roll the lip outward as well. It helps to create just the right amount of tooth show, and can be customized to achieve whatever res...

What is the right age to start Moxi treatments?
The best time to start Moxi treatment is as soon as you can
Oct 31, 2020
Moxi is designed as a "prejuvenation" treatment. Because it has no downtime for healing, patients who are busy in their professional or family lives are able to easily go through the treatment and healing without interrupting life. Moxi's 1927 wavelength targets upper layers of the skin, removing damaged skin which is replaced in 4-7 days with healthier rejuvenated skin. You will notice an immediate improvement in your wrinkles and pigmented spots, and after a series of treatments you...
How much does Moxi cost?
Moxi Cost
Oct 31, 2020
Moxi's biggest benefit is it is a no-downtime laser treatment. It helps to gently resurface the skin, improving texture, fine lines, and discoloration. There are different levels of treatment, which have different costs. A level 1 is a very light resurfacing for skin in your 20's for a "prejuvenation" effect. Level 2 is slightly more comprehensive. Level 3 is a mildly-aggressive treatment which targets skin texture, fine lines, and discoloration. Recommended pricing is as little as...
Does Moxi work on men?
As a male surgeon, I loved my moxi treatment
Oct 31, 2020
Moxi is a perfect choice for a male patient. Most importantly, there is no downtime, and you can return to work, excercise, and enjoy outdoor recreation (with sunscreen) immediately after treatment. As a facial plastic surgeon, I am able to have a moxi treatment over lunch, and see patients in clinic that afternoon. The laser targets water, and has no effect on hair follicles or beard growth. This means that is is a great choice to gently resurface men's facial skin. Ask your doctor...
How does Moxi compare to other laser resurfacing treatments?
Moxi laser- No downtime resurfacing
Oct 31, 2020
The Moxi fractional 1927 laser is an excellent choice for busy patients who cannot take time for traditional post-resurfacing downtime. The laser is safe for all skin types, and is good to smooth the skin texture, reduce fine lines, and reduce discoloration. It can be used safely as part of a comprehensive regimen for melasma treatment.
Moxi is not an appropriate choice for patients with advanced skin aging who hope to reduce heavy wrinkles and tighten skin. Other lasers like Fractional...
How soon can I return to work after getting Moxi treatments?
Moxi- truly no downtime resurfacing
Oct 31, 2020
Thanks for the question. There is truly no downtime with moxi laser. As a facial plastic surgeon, I have had the laser over the noon hour and then continued with clinic in the afternoon. The 1927 wavelength penetrates into the upper layers of the skin, but leaves them intact so no additional “wound care” is required like with CO2 or Erbium laser resurfacing. It is safe for all skin types, including skin of color, and is safe to use along with a comprehensive treatment regimen for mel...
I'm a 34 year old female with early onset neck and face sag. Am I a good candidate for a lower fac
Mini lift or Silhouette
Oct 3, 2018
Thanks for the question.  Based upon your pictures, it does look like your neck shows some signs of aging.  It is difficult to assess the lower face (jowl) area in your pictures.  Based upon this, a neck lift performed through an under-chin incision combined with a mini-lift with incisions around the earlobe would likely improve your concern.  Additionally, the Silhouette instalift was developed for people who may be just a bit too early for (or not interested in) a surgical neck lift.  In...
How Long Till I Can Excercise (Hot Yoga) After Photofacial?
Exercise and IPL
Oct 2, 2018
After IPL, your face will likely feel warm like a mild sunburn, and this will fade relatively quickly over a couple of hours.  We do generally recommend no exercise that same day, though that is more of a precaution than a strict rule.Best wishes!
Can Photofacials Be Used on Individuals with Melasma?
Avoid IPL with melasma
Oct 2, 2018
Most doctors would not recommend IPL for melasma.  This is a tricky skin condition, and the heat from IPL can cause exacerbations.  More important treatments would be sun protection, topical bleaching creams, glycolic acid peels, transexamic acid, and finally Q switch laser.  Some very experienced doctors may recommend IPL, but in general this is not first line treatment. 
Can Pixel Laser Be Used for Under Eye Wrinkles?
Fractional laser for eyelid rejuvenation
Oct 2, 2018
A pixel laser can be used under the eyes.  Laser brandnames can be dizzying to try to figure out, so it is helpful to know what kind of laser you are talking about.  "pixel" usually refers to an Alma brand fractionated erbium 2940 nm laser.  This is an ablative laser, meaning that it vaporizes tiny columns within the skin.  There is not much heating of the skin with an erbium laser, which can be good or bad.  The good is that it is a fast recovery, the bad is that the tightening effects are ...
4 days Post Op SMAS facelift. Widened face after, and sleepy eyes from upper Bleph - When do I con
High Smas facelift recovery
May 24, 2018
A high SMAS facelift along with deep plane facelift are two of the most powerful lifts.  Because they require extensive dissection, patients also typically experience more swelling.  This is especially common in the upper lateral face and just below the jawline.  When adding fat transfer, the duration of swelling is even longer.  At 4 days postop, your swelling has just peaked and is starting to subside, and is much too soon to start seeing your final result.  Relax, follow your doct...
Can plucking nose hairs quite often damage my rhinoplasty results? I’m 3 months post op.
Nasal infection
Mar 27, 2018
Quite often I see plucking of the nasal hairs leading to infection called nasal vestibulitis.  There are normal bacteria present in the nose, and the pore from hair removal can provide a pathway for invasion.  It is better to use some fine scissors or a powered trimming device.Best Wishes
Dorsal hump removal, scared that my nose will still look manly
Worried before rhinoplasty
Mar 27, 2018
I find that the most common reasons patients are nervous before plastic surgical procedures are 1) the unknown aspect, and 2) the fear of looking “overdone”.The goal of rhinoplasty like all other facial procedures is to create a balanced look that fits your face, and your goals.  It is more common now for patients to want to retain some of their ethnic features as well.  A simple dorsal hump reduction may address your primary concern, but leave your nose looking unbalanced.  For this reas...
Hooded lids/drooping eyelid when smiling? Is there a way to fix this?
Drooping eyelids
Mar 27, 2018
Depending on your exam, there may be several options including chemical browlift with botox, and surgical brow lift or blepharoplasty surgery.  I recommend you seek concultation with a board certified facial plastic, general plastic, or occuloplastic surgeon for a complete evaluation.Best Wishes
I am thinking about getting rhinoplasty. What would you recommend for improving the appearance of
Rhinoplasty
Mar 27, 2018
Congratulations on taking the first step by reaching out to the realself community.  Based on your pictures, some small adjustments like deprojection of the nose would likely make a nice different for a proportionate nose for your face.  An in person consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon, or general plastic surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty would be essential to help determine your goals and discuss the particulars of surgery.  I prefer the open rhinoplasty te...
