  • Is nose plastic surgery safe?

    Yes, if it is done by an experienced surgeon. This surgery is done by plastic surgeons and ENT surgeons. Make sure this type of surgery is frequent with good results by the surgeon you consult.

  • What should I do if my eyelid is drooping?

  • Do you typically look better after plastic surgery?

    Yes. Make sure the doctor is board certified in plastic surgery and has experience. This should be a happy experience for you. READ MORE

    Yes. Especially with doctors who should not be doing the procedure. Get a Board certified plastic surgeon with a lot of experience. READ MORE

  • Are tummy tucks painful to get?

    They certainly can be. Tummy tucks can involve a substantial repair of the abdominal wall. Drains are likely. So, if you have need of one, talk to your surgeon on how he views your abdomen. Now, if it is minimal and drains are not used, it can be very different. Hospitalization would not be needed, and recovery at home is tolerated well. Even if drains are used on a reasonable tummy tuck, going home is considered. But, well done tummy tucks are very much appreciated by the patient. READ MORE

  • Are there any risks with lip injections?

    Yes. This is poor experience with the procedure. Not sterile syringes, injecting in the wrong areas, and actually injecting the wrong material. This can all be avoided by going to experienced injectors. Common procedure with expected good results READ MORE

  • Are there extra risks for a diabetic?

    There is a definite risk. You have to stay in control of your diabetes. Blood supply to heal the wound can be compromised. You will need excellent wound care. The surgery itself can be done with minor variations that help protect the healing process. READ MORE

  • I am planning to get a nose job done. What are the chances of success?

    There are two specialties that do this surgery: plastic and ENT. A person of either specialty is okay if they have a lot of experience with the surgery and and can show you pictures and possibly talk with a patient. READ MORE
