Alternatives to quinolone antibiotic for post facelift prophylaxis?
Post facial surgery antibiotics
Aug 28, 2023
Hi. The choice and duration of post facelift antibiotic therapy varies among surgeons. I personally use preoperative IV Ancef followed by a week of Keflex (oral form of the same antibiotics, broad spectrum). Some surgeons may not use any postoperative antibiotics at all since infection risks after facelift are quite low. I recommend asking for a different type of antibiotics or none if quinolone sounds like a risky proposition to you. There are so many kinds of antibiotics available.
Nasal silicone implant shape
Nasal implant problems
Aug 28, 2023
Hi. The palpable implant part in the left nostril sounds like implant malposition. L shapes implants had been widely popular in the 80’s and 90’s and are still being used but not as often as before. There are different shapes and lengths of nasal implants available, and many surgeons use cartilage rather than silicone ones. Whether silicone implants vs autologous cartilage grafts, should be discussed with the surgeon who should be able to explain the pros and cons of each option. The…
Is it possible to perform an Asian rhinoplasty without altering the height of the nose bridge?
Asian rhinoplasty without dorsal augmentation
Aug 28, 2023
Among many Asian rhinoplasties that I have performed, there has been several cases of tip refinement and alar base narrowing without dorsal augmentation. If the nasal bridge height is adequate, slight tip refinement and narrowing will go a long way. Just placing implants of different sizes and shapes alone does not yield optimal results even in most Asian rhinoplasty cases. I always combine the conventional rhinoplasty techniques like mattress suture cartilage shaping and cartilage grafting…
Wide set eyes: Is there a surgery that could extend the lacrimal caruncle?
Surgery for the wide set eyes
Aug 24, 2023
In order to answer your question better, an actual photo of your eyes would be very helpful. Telecanthus is a medical term meaning increased distance between the eyes (or medial canthi). Although traumatic injuries like NOE facial fracture can cause this, I would assume from your question that this is something you’ve always had. If you have epicanthal folds that cover the medial canthal angle and lacrimal caruncle area, medial epicanthoplasty could fix that problem. But, if you would like…
Filler or laser for hypertrophic scar? Artefill or Radiesse or some CO2 fractional laser to treat inde
Scar question
Aug 21, 2017
Looking at the photos, it’s relatively well healed scar considering I see a full spectrum of different scars. The redness can be improved with lasers. Laser however can cause light induced hyper pigmentation so get treated by an expert as it can be a double edged sword. Recently, micro needling with Radiofrequency (i.e. Infini) has become very effective in treating scars, and I would look into it as it is minimally invasive and often gives results much better…
