Happy Facelift Follow up Day! This patient of mine wanted to refresh her lower face and neck without changing her natural appearance. Now two months out from surgery, she regained her youthful contour with a subtle, but significant facelift.

This patient of mine desired a more shapely contour that complimented the rest of her face. Therefore, I added a combination of and Volux to create the jawline she wanted.

I’m excited to show results for in the jawline! Juvederm Volux XC is the first and only hyaluronic acid filler that is FDA-approved for improving jawline definition.

While jawlines have been filled before, the treatments were often ineffective or short-lived.

In these photos, taken several weeks apart, my patient has clear and obvious definition in her jawline with Volux and and improved projection with XC.

As always, a consultation and medical evaluation is required to see if this jawline enhancement is the right filler for you.

As we age, we lose the “baby fat” in our faces, which can lead to deepening lines and furrows. This volume loss, which includes not only the soft tissues in the face, but also bone loss, can give a tired, melancholy, stressed, irritable, angry, and unhealthy appearance.

Fortunately, nonsurgical treatments have really made some amazing and rapid advancements in recent years, and this patient made use of one of the most popular: dermal fillers.

I injected fillers into her smile lines, smoothing out their appearance. The procedure took less than 10 minutes, and she was able to resume her usual activities shortly afterwards.

Reshaping the nose through surgery requires a complex understanding of 3-D structure. While the primary purpose of the is warming and filtering the air we breathe, it also serves as a centerpiece to the face that can provide balance aesthetic harmony.

This patient of mine wanted to straighten her nose and reduce the drooping appearance she had. She is very happy with her results just a few months after surgery, and the small amount of swelling around her tip will continue to reduce over time.

Forehead wrinkles are a common complaint I see in my office, one that is often treated with .

The key to understanding if your forehead lines can be successfully treated with Botox is a careful exam by an experienced professional. Otherwise, you can easily end up with wickedly arched eyebrows, drooping eyelids, or no real change after treatment.

Having a thorough discussion with your doctor and getting any and all questions you have answered truthfully and completely will help you make the best decision for your face. I always take the time to explain how each treatment works, rather than rushing to perform the procedure.

was amazing! As many of you know, my father retired from after nearly 40 years, well after his love of design and structure played a major role in inspiring me to pursue as my career.

His favorite architect, , fused form and function with his great love of nature. He was both artist and engineer, transcending and yet respecting the cultural influences of his day, those that came before, and even those that would follow after his death in 1926.

Perhaps his greatest work, La Sagrada Familía, was only just begun before he passed. But his detailed designs, plus intentionally planned space for other artists and architects to collaborate on his work, have finally neared completion.

What a fantastic and inspiring trip! As in my work, form and function must always work together!

My daughter, with her innate understanding of composition and lighting, took many of these photos.

One of my patients sent me these photos of her Asian or recently. As she flew in from out of state, I could not get regular follow up, but she loves her new look! Just swipe to see her before and afters without makeup.

While close to half of East Asians have a crease or “double eyelid,” the other half (like me!) do not. The Asian eyelid surgery can increase the size of the eye, making the eyes appear more lively. Plus, it can make application of mascara and eyeliner easier and less likely to smudge.

Got a case of the blues? How about this transformation for a young patient of mine to cheer up? She was bothered by her lower face and neck, and wanted to remove some of the fat beneath her while also improving her .

I performed a submental liposuction and gave her a chin implant to improve the aesthetic lines of her face and neck. While nonsurgical techniques, including Kybella for fat removal and filllers for the chin and jawline, can help as well, sometimes surgery is the best, most long term, and fastest solution.

It’s been 1 year, 1 month, and 1 day since the last time I wore a to work. If you know me, that’s just not normal. But we’ve all been living in a state of “not normal” for over a year now.

I’m really looking forward to getting back to the things we all know, and love, and miss. Even social media!
