Doctor’s answers

Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I want to rebuild my temple points. How do I need to measure to be able to have a natu
Temple points
Jan 17, 2021
Filling in the temple points is often important in a good hair transplant. If, as you say, you don’t have temple points anymore then you likely would benefit from adding temple points to balance with your newly transplanted hairline. An experienced hair transplant surgeon should be able to help you determine what you need.
Covid 19 Vaccine and hair transplants?
Covid-19 vaccinations and autoimmune alopecia
Jan 17, 2021
This is a difficult question to answer with certainty. I presume by FFA you are referring to frontal fibosing alopecia. At this point, the answer to the question as to whether or not Covid-19 vaccinations might cause flares of autoimmune disease activity is still not known.
Currently, there is no evidence that vaccinated patients in the trials experienced new onset autoimmune disease. However, we do know that Covid-19 vaccinations occasionally cause significant swelling of dermal fillers,…
Scheduled for an orthopedic surgery. Can I do a hair transplant around the same time?
Shoulder surgery and hair transplant
Jan 17, 2021
Hair transplants are often done during periods of downtime like orthopedic surgery. However, if you are wanting to do FUE, many surgeons will require you to lie on your front or your side to extract the follicular unit grafts from your scalp. I would expect that shoulder surgery would impair your ability to lie comfortably on that shoulder so I would not advise doing an FUE soon after shoulder surgery unless you are confident you will not have any discomfort. As a result, you should probably…
I have Raynaud’s disease. Should I cancel my upcoming CoolSculpting treatment?
Coolsculpting and Raynaud’s
Jun 23, 2019
Coolsculpting is a great treatment for submental fat. Raynaud’s is a relative contraindication but not an absolute one. We have treated many patients with Raynaud’s without any problems, although we did decide to defer therapy in one patient with severe Raynaud’s even though we have no evidence this would have been an issue. Paradoxical adipose hyperplasia is a rare occurrence and Raynaud’s will not increase the risk of developing this. Kybella is also effective in the management…
How many CCs of filler would I need to get my desired results?
Cheeks, jawline, jowl improvement
Feb 8, 2019
I think you would do very well with approximately 4cc of fillers to accomplish your goals. You could definitely improve the appearance of your cheeks, chin, and jowls using a filler like Voluma to revolumize, lift, and sculpt the affected areas. The precise amount of filler required would require a formal evaluation by an experienced injector.
Had restylane 5 days ago. First few days looked great, 5 days later my under eye bags
Was there sufficient filler injected for under eye bags?
Jan 27, 2019
The under eye bags can sometimes be easy to correct, but can sometimes be very tricky and difficult to correct. In some patients, filler needs to be used to not only fill the under eye area but also to the surrounding tissues to support the deflated face. It frequently requires filling of the cheekbones and central cheeks both in the deep malar fat pads and sub orbicularis oculi fat, and sometimes requires filling of the orbital rim and temples…
Was FUE the best choice for my case? Were there enough grafts to cover my thinning are
Was FUE a good choice? Were there enough grafts for the thinned area?
Jan 27, 2019
FUE can certainly deliver outstanding results in the right hands and for the right patient. Without seeing better preoperative photos and knowing more about your expectations, it would be difficult to comment on how good a choice FUE was for you. In general, however, FUE is a good choice for many patients.
As for whether you recieved enough grafts, you should wait to see how the results turn out over the next 12 months before deciding. It also depends on your expectations. If…
