Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Follow up - Facelift or fillers?
Dynamic Lines vs. Sagging tissues
Aug 20, 2015
As several of the doctors have answered, the lines on one face are due to a combination of factors. The lines around your mouth particularly next to the lip (often called smoker's lines) are primarily dynamic lines caused by the constant kneading of the underlying muscles. Face-lifts will not improve these significantly. Usually a combination of filling and resurfacing with lasers or peels will help the dynamic lines. The nasolabial or "parentheses" lines around the mouth area are partly due...
Is eyelid surgery my only real option for my heavily hooded eyes?
Heavily Hooded Upper Eyelid
Aug 14, 2015
The "heavily hooded" upper eyelid is usually a result of several factors which include droop or ptosis of the brow, lacrimal gland droop (ptosis) and excess skin. An exam by a board certified plastic surgeon will help delineate how much each of these components contribute to your particular case. From the picture, a simple upper eyelid lift without more complex intervention like lacrimal gland suspension will make significant improvements with the least amount of surgery. A brow lift is a...
if i have a cigarette or two during the month before surgery for silicone implants, am I at hi
smoking and breast augmentation vs lift
Aug 13, 2015
The concern here is the adequacy of blood supply to wound edges and to the tissues. Smoking not only damages blood vessels long term but also places substances in the body such as nicotine (nicotine can be measured in the body for several weeks even after one cigarette) which causes vasoconstriction (tightening of the blood vessels) possibly impacting on blood flow. A surgery such as a breast lift is very dependent on good blood supply. In a breast lift...
Neck lift and upper eye lid surgery, how long is down time?
Recover time for neck, face and eyelid lift
Aug 12, 2015
Every patient heals differently and different surgeon's techniques heal differently. In general, a neck and eyelid lift takes about a week for the stitches to come out and usually another 4 to 7 days to put makeup over any bruised areas. In summary about 2 weeks as a general rule of thumb. Consult with your board certified plastic surgeon to verify their expected recovery times for each procedure.
Am I a good candidate for a lip lift?
Lip Lift
Jul 14, 2015
A lip lift would help raise the corners of the mouth to enhance both volume and shape of the mouth. Lip fillers are temporary but can be a great adjunct to surgery. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to see if indeed a lip lift or filler would be the best approach for you.
Could eyelid surgery change the appearance of my eyes?
Eyelid Asymmetry/Droop
Jul 14, 2015
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery can oftentimes improve the appearance of one's eyes. By removing excess skin , we can make the appearance of the eye more open, thereby giving you a more youthful or "refreshed look." Everyone has asymmetry but consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine if eyelid surgery is appropriate for addressing your needs.
I had Botox on my forehead. I now need it for my eyes - can I have it or do I have to wait?
Timing of Botox for forehead and eyes
Jul 14, 2015
Typically these two areas can be treated at the same time. In fact, most people do have their forehead and eyes treated with Botox at one visit. But depending on cost, or preference, you can choose to separate the appointments if needed.
Tighter pectoral muscle on one side pre surgery. Will this cause asymmetry?
Breast Asymmetry
Jul 14, 2015
Patients with tight pectoral muscles prior to breast augmentation surgery will tend to have their implants ride higher on the chest for the first few weeks or months. But a good plastic surgeon can help adjust the asymmetry based on the size of the implant, type of implant, and additional surgical procedures recommended by your plastic surgeon. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon before making your final decision.
Wanting perky breasts without getting a lift
Breast Augmentation/Lift
Jul 14, 2015
Breast Augmentation can sometimes provide a lift to patients that have minimal "ptosis," or lax skin in that area. If patient has a grade 2 or 3 ptosis, a mastopexy or "lift" may be needed as well. To determine the amount of breast droop, consult a board certified plastic surgeon to consider these options.
How Much Does Liposuction Cost? Do you get discounts for the lipo price if you get lipo on mul
Average cost of Liposuction
Jun 30, 2015
The average cost of liposuction depends much on the area suctioned, how much is suctioned and the complexity of the case involved. Getting a consultation with your plastic surgeon, would better narrow your cost for a better rate. However, a ball park estimate would be somewhere between $2500 to $8000. Discounts are dependent on the office and physician policy.
Lipo - is there any way to correct this unevenness/waviness/lumpiness?
Lipo Irregularities
Jun 30, 2015
Irregularities are common unpredictable side effects with liposuction. However there are some techniques that help smooth out these "lumpy bumps" like the Z-Wave which we perform in office post-operatively. Check out your area for plastic surgeons who have these procedures in place.
