Statement: Dr. David Gay decided to become a surgeon at the age of eight. During his high school years, he began doing rotations in hospitals and scrubbing in to observe surgeries firsthand. As soon as he was eighteen, he trained as an EMT (emergency medical technician). He did his undergraduate training at the University of Utah, successfully completing a double major in Exercise Physiology and German Literature. Dr. Gay spent a couple years during and after college doing research in pancreatic cancer. During medical school at the Medical College of Virginia, Dr. Gay was exposed to a short rotation with an oculoplastic surgeon, and he immediately knew that he had found his calling. He did his ophthalmology training at the Medical College of Georgia, and was then selected for a prestigious American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS) fellowship at the Sinai Hospital of Baltimore. He was trained by Drs. Hirschbein and Karesh.

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Would I be a good candidate for AccuTite for the under eye fat pockets?
Combination
Aug 24, 2021
When considering non-surgical approaches usually a combination of approaches will give you the best results. AccuTite will help reduce the bags. Adding Morpheus8 or laser to achieve additional skin tightening will enhance your results. Tear trough filler would be the final step to improving your lower eyelids.
Can Accutite help with undereye fat graft lump? How else can I get ride of the lump?
Fat Grafting Removal
Aug 24, 2021
I would not recommend AccuTite for this issue. The localized lump may improve with AccuTite but it won't fully resolve your issue. If you are going to spend time and money resolving this issue you would be better off have surgery to remove the fat. A qualified surgeon will be able to directly remove the fat and restore a normal contour to the area. An approach from inside the eyelid will hide any scar.
Is it possible to have these piercing scars minimized with surgery?
Scar Options
Oct 4, 2019
Yes your scars can be improved. Piercing scars tend to be indented and much more noticeable than scars from cuts. A scar revision is basically trading a more noticeable scar for a less noticeable scar. Non-surgical treatments like scar cream, subcision, and microneedling don't work as well for piercing scars. A small scar revision surgery can be done in-office under local anesthesia. Cost can vary widely based on the area you live. I recommend calling the office to get pricing. The type of...
I'm 46 yrs old. Am I a candidate for Lip Lift Surgery?
Yes
Oct 4, 2019
Thanks for your question. The short answer is yes. You would be a good candidate for a lip lip. The filler in your lips looks good and helps a lot, but a lip lift will give you longer lasting results. You may still want to use filler to increase your lip volume, but your lip shape and appearance will be improved by the lip lift. Your skin quality looks good. You will want to have enough removed to have a good appearance, but be careful about having too much removed. The increased tension by...
Why is a fat transfer recommended for doing my lower blepharoplasty? And what will happen if I don’t i
Options
Sep 12, 2019
Thanks for your question. It can be confusing with so many treatment options and plans. Surgeons tend to get the best results with the procedures they perform the most often and with the technique they most commonly use. Your surgeon may get excellent results with the proposed technique. If you talk to 10 surgeons you may get 10 different approaches. There are many different techniques that all lead to excellent results. I don't often do fat transfer to the eyelids. I don't feel that...
How does a micro-autologous fat transfer support the lower eyelids and help to prevent hollowed eyes a
Many Options
Sep 12, 2019
There are many different techniques that all lead to excellent results. I don't often do fat transfer to the eyelids. I don't feel that the technique is precise enough for reliable results. That being said many surgeons do this technique with excellent results. I find filler is more reliable if needed after surgery. Fat transposition during your blepharoplasty should be able to fill most of your hollow areas.
What is the safest facial filler (in terms of toxins, etc.) including Sculptra?
Fillers
Sep 12, 2019
All the fillers currently in use in the United States have excellent safety profiles. The most common are fillers containing hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. An option you may want to consider is fat transfer. This would be your own fat collected from someplace else in your body and injected into other areas. That is as natural as you can go.
