Manifesting the morph into reality. Previous nasal surgery left this lovely patient with alar retraction, midvault collapse, and an unsupported droopy nasal tip. The nostril being pulled up gave off a 'snarl' / angry appearance that did not match her normal effervescent self. To make matters worse, her nasal breathing was compromised and there was no cartilage inside the nose to use in surgery. The images above are the before, the goal, and the actual outcome. I like to use 2D imaging to see what changes make patients happy. It takes away some of the guesswork of what they are imagining in their head. In terms of the surgery, it was an open approach rhinoplasty with rib cartilage for grafting to re-support the structure. Form and function restored and all js well. All views coming on website soon.

Very special gift from a happy patient. It means a lot for someone to take the time to paint this impressively accurate portrait. I love the concept of leaving things better than than you find them. Lucky for me, my work allows me a chance to impact peoples' lives. This gift is a nice reminder of that. ..Now to hang it in the break room, like a communist dictator, and spook our staff.

Nasal tip so uplifting, your therapist will call it for advice. ❤️👃🏻

This patient had an to address multiple parts of his nose, but was mainly bothered by the droopy nasal tip. Nasal tip support is extremely important to maintain the harmony and longevity of the nose.

We had a very special visitor to the office, my fellowship director and mentor . Coming all the way from in Beverly Hills where I trained. We discussed all things rhinoplasty, preservation rhinoplasty, and even "preservation" facelifts-- which is a variation of the extended deep plane composite lift developed by Frank Kamer at Lasky Clinic decades ago. There is no East Coast - West Coast conflict when it comes to surgery.

Sometimes the best results are from what's not* done. 🔍

Thank you to for featuring me in this article. IMO the best way to avoid dissolving fillers is to be mindful before starting.

Ask questions.
Is your injector qualified❓
Are they using the correct product for the area❓
Is too much product being place ❓
Is it placed too often ❓
Is surgery a better option for the result you want ❓

A second opinion is just a phone call away. ☎️

An unassuming, less dominant nose releases the rest of the face for interaction. ❤️👃🏻

result reducing the convexity of the nose and stabilizing the tip so it doesn't dip down when smiling. 🙂
•
Increased nasal support also prevents a droopy tip as we age -- it's no such much that the nose grows with age, but rather loses support and elongates.
