Doctor's answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Should I get eyebrow lift or blepharoplasty on my upper lids?
Eyebrow lift or Upper lid blepharoplasty
Apr 3, 2023
From the photo you appear to be a good candidate for upper lid blepharplasty. In experienced hands this is a rather easy fix. The excess skin would be removed and the incision is hidden in the upper lid crease. You also have a little puffy area near the inside corner of the upper lid, which is a fat pad that should be removed. You also have some puffiness under your lower lids. These can also be remover to give you a less tried appearance.
Please consult with a facial plastic surgeon to...
Hardness of tip - will I need a revision to fix this?
Hardness of tip
Oct 12, 2022
At 4 months this is normal. The firmest is part of the healing process that will take between 12-15 month. No a revision rhinoplasty will not fix this and shouldn't be do perform until the healing has occurred. These are questions that you should discuss with your surgeon.
What can be done to give me some neck/chin definition?
Chin and jawline definition
Oct 12, 2022
From your photo you have a recessed chin with lack of projection and combined with submental fat.
You would be a good candidate for a chin augmentation (extended anterior mandibular implant), combined with a submental liposuction.
Please consult with and experience facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options.
Is it possible to just get my nose tip refined?
Tip-Plasty
Sep 7, 2022
Absolutely the tip can be refined. You have a well proportioned nose with a somewhat amorphous and bulbous tip. I would recommend an open approach to precisely structure the tip. Please consult with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon to discuss your options.
Am I a good candidate for revision rhinoplasty?
Revision Rhinoplasty
Jun 22, 2022
Absolutely. If you are unhappy with your nasal appearance it is worth pursuing. You have an over rotated tip with loss of definition. You dorsum (bridge) is over resected (scooped out). A revision rhinoplasty is not the same type of procedure as a primary rhinoplasty. Please consult with an experienced expert in revision nasal surgery to discuss your options. Best of luck.
Will a lower facelift or neck lift fix my sagging crepey skin?
Ready for a facelift?
Jun 22, 2022
From your photos you have the early signs of laxity and ptosis of the lower face and neck with some joweling, marionette lines and banding of the neck and the loss of elasticity. You would benefit from a lower facelift (cervical- facial) . To answer the question if you are ready yet is strictly determined on how much it is bothering you. Please consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options and also be able to evaluate their work. Best of luck.
What lab work do Plastic surgeons request prior to Neck Lift surgery?
Pre-op labs
Apr 28, 2022
Every doctor is a little different in what they require. Our surgery patients must have CBC, PT, PTT, and a chem. profile. Blood pressure is extremely important to be steady within normal limits. Systolic 130 or less and diastolic 82 or less. Please discuss your concerns with your surgeon.
Do I need a chin/neck lift or jaw line work?
Liposuction and jawline
Apr 25, 2022
Thank you for the question. The first rule is to be comfortable with the doctor and to be on the same page. If not, seek a second or third consultation. From the photo you could benefit from sub mental and sub-mandibular liposuction. I also feel you may benefit from a small augmentation of the anterior jawline/chin.
What is the durability of a Weekend Lift?
Lasting effects of "Quick" lift procedures
Apr 14, 2022
The types of facelifts you are referring to are basically skin lifts. They are an advertising gimmick and do not address the underlying problem that must be corrected. There are a number of techniques and names of facelift procedures. However, without addressing the underlying cause, the results will not last and only leave you the possibly of unsightly scars, hair loss and a funny-looking ear. Please consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to discuss all of you potions.
Is it safe to use Botox on the neck area? Platysmal bands
Botox for Platysmal banding
Apr 14, 2022
Yes it is safe to treat platysmal bands with Botox. However there are risks and possible complications that can occur. The most important step is that you seek evaluation and treatment from an experienced well train doctor/injector. They should discuss all the risks and complications with you prior to treatment. (If they don't....look for another doctor!) Look at their results and get reliable referrals - not advertisements.
Good luck!
I'm obese and carry fat in my face. Can I still get Botox for a smooth forehead/reduce wrinkles? (photo
Botox treatment and over weight
Apr 14, 2022
Congratulation and go luck with your weight loss journey! Your weight will not effect your candidacy for getting Botox. Botox prevents muscle contractions and used by an experienced injector will reduce and eliminate forehead, frown, and crowfoots wrinkles. Go for it! It may provide you with some positive motivation.
Planned Facelift next year, can I do Facetite now?
Facetite before Facelift
Apr 14, 2022
If you are actually planning to have a facelift in the near future (within 2-3 years), I would not recommend undergoing a Facetite. The healing and contraction that occurs continues for at least 12 months. You know it takes 3-6 month to see the results of Facetite. Therefore, the patients we have who get a facelift after Facetite must wait at least 15 month. In addition to the expense of Facetite. Without evaluating you I can not provide a yes or no answer. Please seek a second or third...
Will a croton or phenol peel help with a tummy tuck and breast lift scar?
Croton or Phenol peel on the body should not be preformed
Jan 19, 2022
Thank you for the question. It is extremely important to understand that croton oil /phenol peels are NOT to be used off the face (i.e. on the torso). This peel wounds the skin to or through the papillary dermis. On the body the papillary dermis layer is superficial, therefore it will produce a scar. Also, please know chemical peels (of any type) will not remove or prevent a scar of any kind. The best way to reduce and limit scarring is good surgical technique and handling the tissue...
Would a chin implant or sliding genioplasty be best for me?

I think you would benefit greatly with an extended mandibular augmentation and a submental liposuction. The procedure is quick , safe and predicable. Please consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options.
How painful is a facelift under local anesthesia?
Facelift under local anesthesia

The only reason to undergo a facelift under local anesthesia is the "save" money or the the doctor does not not have privileges or access to a certified surgery facility. It is critically important for the patient to be relaxed, comfortable, and be monitored throughout the surgery. Under local alone, it would be difficult to lift and reposition the deep structures that need to be addressed. I would not recommend undergoing a facelift under local anesthesia alone.
