What's the best way to treat skin laxity on my face, and pronounced tear troughs? I'm 31 (Pho
Voluma injected laterally to lift cheeks and soften jowls.
Apr 13, 2015
Dear writer, Voluma is injected laterally to create a vector effect and lift cheeks and soften jowls. Central or medial injections such as in your case, may cause in the long run a not so natural appearance, and lead to eye bags or laxity, as well as a worsening of the tear trough. I think the amount of Voluma that has been injected in you, with you being such a young woman, is on the high side of what is typically done. Discuss with your provider the preferred lateral...
Help! Brow looks (and even feels) heavy and weighted down, eyes/eyebrows look heavy. Any way
Heavy Brows after Botox
Apr 13, 2015
This may be the case for some patients after Botox injections, and it manifests mostly two to three weeks after the treatment. Its occurrence depends on positioning of the injection, dose used and the variations in patients' anatomy. A way to soften this is to instill one drop to each eye, twice daily, for 7 to 10 days of Iopidine 0.5% solution. This will cause a modest opening of the eyes and 'freeing' of the brows. After 7 to 10 days of using the drops (approximately 3 to 4 weeks after the...
Whom is better able to perform Cool Sculpting....a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon?
CoolSculpting is performed equally successfully by dermatologists and plastic surgeons
Apr 13, 2015
Dear Writer, From all standpoints, CoolSculpting is performed equally successfully by dermatologists and plastic surgeons alike. What is most important is that you check the credentials of the center where you will be having this treatment done, as well as the expertise of each of the providers with regards to this procedure. Typically, dedicated CoolSculpting centers in every city and state will have the most expertise performing this non-invasive procedure. As a historical note,...
Swelling after Juvederm injection. ER doctor told me I may end up with a scar
Complications after hyaluronic acid gel injection.
Apr 13, 2015
Dear writer, As my colleagues have mentioned, you need to seek medical attention for possible occlusion of a vessel in the area of injection of the hyaluronic acid filler, which extends, as expected, well beyond the point of injection. Treatment will include injection of hyaluronidase enzyme in order to 'dissolve' the injected filler and expedite recovery/prevent worsening tissue compromise. Large amounts of Nitroglycerin paste is also often applied to the area, in order to open up blood...
Is it possible to get rid of a natural scowl with Botox?
Correcting the downward corners of the mouth with Juvederm.
Apr 12, 2015
Correcting the downward corners of the mouth can be a rewarding filler procedure. Patients typically appear sad or angry due to this. Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm Ultra can be injected to accomplish this.
How much does Radiesse generally cost in Miami?

How to get rid/remove of back acne??
Acne on the back is important to treat properly to avoid scars.
Apr 12, 2015
Dear writer, Acne on the back is important to treat properly to avoid scars. Typically, a combination of benzoyl peroxide wash, topical antibiotic gels or lotions (clindamycin) in the morning, a retinoid cream (Retin A, Tazorac) at night, and possibly oral antibiotics, can be successful at treating most inflammatory acne on the back.
Help on reducing redness and future pimples?
Inflammatory Acne requires a complete skincare and medical regimen.
Apr 12, 2015
Dear writer, Inflammatory Acne requires a complete skincare and medical regimen. I advise you to visit a board certified dermatologist to inquire about topical creams as well as possibly oral antibiotics to treat your acne.

VelaShape III for superior skin tightening and reduction of cellulite
Apr 11, 2015
Dear writer, the powerful VelaShape III has been delivering superior skin tightening and a nice reduction of cellulite. Bipolar Radiofrequency and infrared light are coupled with suction and massage to achieve these results. Typically between 3 to 6 sessions are recommended. Results are not permanent, as with all devices used to treat cellulite and tighten skin. The Vela likely gives one of the best, longer lasting results. Maintenance sessions are recommended yearly to keep the results...
I have scars after laser hair removal. Are they permanent?
No permanent scars after laser hair removal.
Apr 11, 2015
Dear writer, What you are experiencing now after the session of laser hair removal, typically will resolve completely. Commonly, a mild to moderate potency cortisone cream is applied in combination with an antibiotic ointment such as mupirocin twice daily for one week to expedite resolution. Please consult your provider regarding the feasibility of you using these. Be sure to avoid sun exposure for one to two months!
What are the options after Accutane/ Isotretinoin?
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) for Treatment of Inflammatory Acne.
Apr 11, 2015
Dear writer, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) may be effective for treatment of Inflammatory and Cystic Acne, particularly after having already performed two long courses of Isotretinoin.
What kind of acne is this?
Inflammatory Acne
Apr 11, 2015
Your description indicates the acne is likely, at least, inflammatory with pustules and perhaps early nodules and cysts. I strongly recommend you visit a board-certified dermatologist for proper and prompt care, and in order to avoid scarring. Treatment often includes: topical creams/gels and antibiotics by mouth.
Would I be a good candidate for Cool Sculpt and Velashape after my hernia repair?
CoolSculpting can be performed six months after surgery.
Apr 11, 2015
Dear writer, CoolSculpting can be safely performed six months after the abdominal hernia repair. I still would advise not to place the applicator directly over that area, but to make a combination of placements of applicators that will spare the fixed hernia area, while addressing all areas of excess fat.
