Answer Snippet
Is there a way to reduce the size of my forehead and smooth it at the same time?
Hair Line Advancement
Sep 23, 2015
A forehead reduction surgery could be performed with an incision at your current hair line. This would allow your hair line to be advanced and therefore shortening your forehead. At the same time, you could also have a the skin of the forehead re-draped and improvement of your forehead wrinkles. Most certified plastic surgeons should be able to perform these procedures for you. You need to be evaluated in person though to make sure that you are a candidate and to cover all the...
Is botox for eyebrows okay for 21 year old?
Droopy Eyelids
Sep 23, 2015
There is no problem or additional side effects of using Botox in your age group. However, please see a certified physician before seeking this treatment. Without a picture or seeing you in person, it is difficult to assess your problem that you are experiencing. A "droopy" brow line could potentially be made worse if you use Botox because you are paralyzing the muscles that elevate your brows.
I have a white birth mark on my right cheek. Can I remove it by using laser treatment?
White birthmark
Sep 21, 2015
It is difficult to provide clear recommendations without a picture, but a white birthmark usually means there is absence of the pigment in the area. This is more noticeable when you have darker pigmented skin types. Lasers are used to remove colors from the skin and therefore would not help you in your case. Depending on the size and location of the spot, you could elect to have it excised. This would completely remove it, but you would have a scar. This may be...
I was wondering if there are any improvements so far in medicine that could completely remove this? (Ph
Hypopigmented Birthmark
Sep 14, 2015
I agree with Dr. Lim, Recell would greatly improve the area, however, it is unlikely to correct it 100%. You would then need to undergo hair transplantation as you mentioned to restore your hair line. Another options would be to excise it and to get the best outcomes in this area it would require serial or multiple excisions since the skin is relatively tight on the back of the neck. By taking it out in smaller portions, the skin will "stretch" and loosen between surgeries....
Asymmetrical smile fix, exaggerated after facial injections. Will upper lip injections help?
Asymmetric Smile
Sep 11, 2015
Since your smile was already higher on the right, the Botox injections the left would make this more pronounced since muscles on the left are not functioning as well. If you like the how the left side looks now, then you could add Botox injections to the right side to try and lessen the pull of the muscles on that side and lower your smile. You could also allow the Botox to wear off on the left side over the next several months and see where your smile sits and then make...
Will wide-eyed look from 5 years of botox/dysport go away?
Reversing Botox Changes
Sep 11, 2015
Botox and Dysport will wear off overtime if no further injections are given. There may be some residual effects from the long term injections from the the atrophy or shrinkage of the muscle that were injected, but they can rebuild mass once they begin to function again as the medications wear off. In regards to the appearance of your eyes, this may not improve and the treatments may or may not have been the cause of it. It is difficult in pictures to determine facial...
Should a nose flap after Mohs surgery look fairly normal after 7 weeks?
Healing Nasal Flap
Sep 11, 2015
This is a typical appearance of a flap on the nose. The skin on the nose is very thin and when other tissues are moved into the area there often discrepancies in the thickness, skin type, etc. This is what we call "pin cushioning" as it has the appearance of pin cushion. You are early on in the reconstructive healing process and the area will continue to remodel overtime. The remodeling process continues for up to about a year. You can approve the...
How can I manage Mohs surgery on my nose? Basal, caught early. Get major panic attacks if someone tries
Uncomfortable during procedures
Sep 11, 2015
There are many people that cannot handle even small procedures. You know your body best and already do not respond to pain medications and local anesthetic well. I would recommend that you see a certified plastic surgeon to discuss your diagnosis and your concerns with the procedure. The surgeon will be able to offer you the option have it performed under conscious sedation or full general anesthesia if you choose. While they do not perform Moh's surgery by...
I have a birth mark in my head and its a bald spot. Is there a way i could get it removed or?
Birth Mark with Bald Spot
Sep 10, 2015
Birth marks are classified into vascular and pigmented lesions and it is difficult to determine the type of "birth mark" this is in the photo. If you noticed any changes in it recently such as enlarging, ulcerations, or pain you should have it evaluated soon by a physician. You "mark" does appear to be small enough that you could have it excised and the area closed with a suture line. The bald patch would be gone, but you have would have a linear scar that would not have...
Is there anything I can do to make my cherry red skin graft less noticeable other than thick make-up? (
Red Skin Graft
Sep 10, 2015
The skin graft is considered healed once the top layer or epidermis is intact (no scabbing). This is usually within several weeks following the initial surgery unless there were complications. The graft then remodels over the next year to year and a half. This is when it should lighten and soften. Since your surgery was over 5 years ago, your skin graft has healed, has fully remodeled, and you should not experience any noticeable changes. To try and lighten the graft...

5-Fluorouracil
Sep 1, 2015
5-Fluorouracil is the generic name for Carac. It is an chemotherapeutic agent used to target dividing cells. It is usually prescribed as a topical that will treat precancerous lesions such as actinic keratosis and is an alternative treatment to freezing or excising the lesions when there is a large amount of tissue surface area affected. 5-FU has been used to treat cancerous lesions such as squamous cell carcinomas, but is usually given by an injection into the lesion...
Should my birthmark be hurting me / have a tingling feeling?
Painful Birth Mark
Sep 1, 2015
There are many different types of "birth marks" and they are classified into pigmented lesions and vascular lesions. It is difficult to diagnosis these without seeing them and the management can be different for each type, locations, and size of lesions. However, in general, if any lesion, mark, or lump on your body is changing color or size and definitely if it is becoming symptomatic, you should have it evaluated by a certified physician that is comfortable treating these...
When should the patient be educated about the potential need for nose reconstruction, before or just af
Pre-procedure Planning
Aug 30, 2015
There are no protocols for surgery unless the physician or group has established something in their practice. I recommend you get in touch with the office and let them know of your concerns. If a phone conversation is not satisfactory to you, then schedule an appointment other than the day of surgery to discuss both what is going to be performed for the cancer removal and then the possible ways to reconstruct the defect. Often, there are multiple options that each have...
I'm having a bad experience with Boletero
Bruising after Boletero
Aug 29, 2015
There are small vessels that run underneath everyone's skin that are difficult to see. The needle for the injection likely cut one of these vessels and you had a little bleeding under the skin which you see as the large bruise. It is not from the Boletero compound rather from the needle needed to inject it. This is a known side effect from the injection and Boletero's published rates of bruising is 54% and swelling 68% (so fairly common). I agree with your physician and...
Should I continue with Fraxel Restore on leg scars? I have hypopigmentation
Scar Revision
Aug 28, 2015
Your scars had a good response to the treatment and the pigment was removed. When all of the pigment is removed the tissue will be left with a white color. If you are please with the color of the scars now, I would not undergo any further treatments as it will remove any remaining pigment that is there. Wounds do continue to remodel for about a year after any treatment or procedure. So it is possible that the areas could continue to lighten. They also could...
