5 weeks post operation. Is it safe to get my eyebrows tattooed this week?
Eyebrow Tatooing s/p face lift
Nov 9, 2015
Nov 9, 2015
Although the best advice would always tell you to ask the surgeon who did your surgery first, I see no reason why it would be any more risky now than at any other time to proceed with eyebrow tattooing. Good luck, and congrats on your surgery.
I will turn 60 in August. I’m looking for facial rejuvenation. However, my left eye is prosthetic. W

I applaud you for sharing, especially about the eye. This raises an important issue in terms of surgeon-selection. ASOPRS-certified surgeons with cosmetic training are most likely going to be the best option for you. Although you don’t live in my area, I wound encourage you to seek and ASOPRS-certified Oculo-Facial Plastic, Reconstructive, and Cosmetic surgeon. There are some excellent ones in the San Diego area. The main reason I say this (not trying to…
Is Silikon Legal in Every U.S. State?
Read my lips, “Silicone please”
Jul 6, 2011
Jul 6, 2011
As a board-certified ophthalmologist, I can assure you that silicone is approved in every state for use during vitreoretinal surgeries such as retinal detachment repair. Its has been around a very long time, and is very well-tolerated by the body. Therefore, it doubles wonderfully as a dermal filler. As a facial plastic surgeon, I can tell you that we have used it for years in the face with excellent results especially in the lips or areas where a softer feel is desired…
Botox side effects – how can I avoid them?
Botox has excellent safety profile. Experienced injectors mean less bad outcomes
Nov 20, 2009
Nov 20, 2009
Botox has an excellent safety record in terms of medical complications. The effect however, is designed to work in some areas and not others. Therefore, it’s the experience and training of the injector that really leads to optimal results in terms of patient satisfaction. The number one concern seems to be eyelid drooping. In our practice, we boast ASOPRS-certification. This is the society of oculofacial plastic surgeons, that is surgeons who are double-trained in eye surgery and facial…
One brow not moving 1 month after Brow Lift
Frontal branch injury typically temporary following Brow Lift
Oct 28, 2009
Oct 28, 2009
The dissection and movement of the tissues required to elevate the forehead and eyebrows during endocopic brow lift surgery can cause dysfunction of the frontal branch of the facial nerve, which innervates the frontalis muscle. This would lead to decreased function of this muscle.
Fortunately, unless the nerve was actually severed during surgery (which is rare), its function should return over time, although it can actually take quite a while for some folks. For the most part, just hang in…

How much does a full face lift cost?

The first step is to determine what about your appearance you wish to change.
Then see one or two surgeons and compare notes on the recommended procedures.
I try to provide accurate quotes to my patients in a menu format and allow them to select the procedure(s) they wish to address their most dreaded problem areas. However, it is common for a patient to say, "well since the lower lids are only $2,500, I’ll go ahead and do that, too.", for example. Lower eyelid surgery is not…

How long will a SMAS Facelift last?
SMAS Duration varies, but typically several years
Oct 19, 2009

My other colleagues make good points. In adding to the discussion, I would offer several points:
1. Any cosmetic procedure will provide longer-lasting results if you reduce the amount of future insult to the tissues. Typically, we discuss this point with laser resurfacing. You can think of it as waxing your car. If you park it in the sun, it won’t last as long as if you park it in the garage. Sun-blocking make up and skin care products will help your investment last longer. Surgery is…
