Do I have the Tyndall effect?
Do I have the Tyndall effect? (Photo)
Oct 24, 2023
Hello PW,
It is difficult to determine from the photo whether your pigmentation is from under eye filler. If it is filler related then the best way to treat it would be to dissolve the filler with Hylenex. If you have further questions or concerns feel free to contact me for either a virtual or in person consultation. Good luck and be well.

What to do about deep nasolabial folds and low cheeks? (Photos)
Oct 22, 2023
Hello G,
I would treat you with volume to your cheeks with Sculptra and/or Voluma as I believe they are more predictable than fat, particularily in a young woman. Also, much easier and less invasive. It is very important that you choose an expert injecting physician to perform your treatment. Choose based on their experience, skill, knowledge, certification, care, and most importantly their natural artistic vision. Good luck and be well.

Oct 22, 2023
Hi G,
I would advise consulting with an injecting physician expert who most likely will dissolve the Volift from your lips. In the future you may use other lip fillers such as Volbella, Restylane Kysse, or Redensity. Good luck and be well.

Hi Sunny,
I would likely not dissolve your chin filler. I would examine you in person and then determine your best course of treatment. I would likely use a treatment of foundational Sculptra to support your upper 2/3's of your face to bring your face back into proportion. It is difficult to advise you based on one 2-dimensional photo. Please feel free to contact my office for either a virtual or in person complimentary consultation for your best plan of treatment.

Guidance on improving my skin?
SkinVive, Dr. Persky's Answer to Guidance on Improving Your Skin
Oct 10, 2023
Hi Sam,
Great question. SkinVive is the first and only hyaluronice acid microdroplet injectable indicated to imporve skin smoothness of the cheeks. I have used it off label over the entire face with excellent results and very high patient satisfaction. SkinVive is not a filler, it is a skin booster, it hydrates the skin and gives the skin a lasting glow. SkinVive is injected with a tiny needle, just below the surface of the skin spaced between 0.5 to 1 cm apart in miniscule amounts. ...

SkinVive.... 12 days post-op Juvederm Volite, face is now clumpy. Is this normal? (photos)
Sep 21, 2023
Hi Tine,
Volite, now FDA approved for use in the United States as SkinVive, is a hyaluronic acid that must be precisely injected at the proper level of the skin, the deep dermis. If it is injected too superficially, it can form the bumps that have developed on your face. The product effects can last up to 6 to 9 months. If your bumps persist, they can be dissolved with hyaluronidase. This adverse event should be avoided by choosing your expert injecting physician carefully based on their...
Are there any surgeries that could address my under-eye creasing?
Are there any surgeries that could address my under-eye creasing? (Photo)
Sep 7, 2023
Helo WOG,
Minimal excess skin of the lower eyelid can be corrected with a "skin pinch" of the skin procedure. It is performed under local anesthesia in our office. It involves removing a small amount of skin just below the lower eye lashes. Otherwise an ablative laser treatment with fractionated CO2 laser would help, but I would not advise laser in a dark skinned patient. You are very young for blepharoplasty, I would recommend waiting 5 to 10 years and then re-evaluating your concerns....
Can I get HA dermal filler before Morpheus8 or SylfirmX?
Can I get HA dermal filler before Morpheus8 or SylfirmX?
Aug 29, 2023
Hi Little Mermaid,
It's usually better to have a skin tightening procedure prior to fillers. Some fillers are okay along with a radiofrequency treatment such as Profound Rf, Morpheus, or Sylfirm. Sculptra and hyperdilute Radiesse are bio-regenerative injectables that are fine to have at the same time or prior to RF treatments. Also if the hyaluronic acid filler is injected deep on bone it is okay to have befroe the RF treatment. Feel free to contact me with any further questions or for a...
Male, 35, hyaluronidase diluted with kenalog messed my face, is this skin atrophy?
Male, 35, hyaluronidase diluted with kenalog messed my face, is this skin atrophy? (Photos)
Aug 29, 2023
Hello F,
It does appear that the treatment to dissolve filler in your face with kenalog and 5FU have caused subcutaneous atrophy. It is most likely a permanent effect. After examining you, I would likely treat you with bioregenerative fillers like Sculptra and/or hyperdilute Radiesse to replace your lost volume. Be sure to choose your treating physician very carefully. Good luck and be well.

How many Botox units should I expect to recieve? 28 y/o female?
Aug 24, 2023
Hi Sam,
I would likely treat a young woman like you with anywhere from 24 to 32 units of Botox. Your frozen feeling was probably due to the relatively high dose that you received. Be sure to choose your injecting physician most carefully. Good luck and be well.

Aug 24, 2023
Hello YT,
If your upper eyelids bother you, there are a few choices for treatment. The least invasive would be using a neuro-modulator like Botox to selectively raise your eyebrows a little. A second consideration would be having Ultherapy of the forehead above your brow. Lastly, a skin only excision of the excess upper lid skin would be corrective. Feel free to contact our office for a complimentary virtual consultation. Most important, do your homework and choose your treating...

Hi Sunshine and Freckles,
I have performed both procedures Ultherapy and ProfoundRf for many years. I would most likely treat you with Ultherapy as well as a foundational treatment of Sculptra on bone to help with your pre-jowl and cheek concerns. As with any aesthetic treatment please carefully choose your treating physician. Feel free to contact me with any further questions or a virtual consultation if you wish. Good luck and be well.

Hello M,
I agree with not removing your buccal fat. I would likely treat you with some lateral cheek filler (Voluma and or Sculptra.). You may also benefit from properly placed botox in your masseter muscles to slightly narrow your lower posterior cheek area (where you have red circles on your photos.) Feel free to contact my office to scheudule a complimentary in person or virtual consultation at your convenience (818 501-FACE). Good luck and be well.

Please make sure to choose your treating physician very carefully as this is a procedure that demands expertise. Feel free to contact me with any...
