I'm scheduled for a Mommy Makeover in early December, which encompasses a breast lift, tummy tuck, and a significant amount of liposuction. What is the safe waiting period before I can receive Botox, Restylane injections or Xeomin Injection? Is it a matter of weeks or months?

What is the recommended timeframe for receiving Xeomin and dermal fillers after undergoing plastic surgery?

In order to better understand the distinctions between facial features, could you provide a detailed comparison of marionette lines and smile lines, focusing on aspects such as their specific locations on the face, the factors that contribute to their development, and the ways in which they influence a person's overall facial appearance and aesthetics?

Marionette lines and smile lines, also known as nasolabial folds, are two types of facial lines that can become more prominent with age. However, they are not the same and are located in different areas of the face.Smile Lines:&nbsp;These are the lines that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth. They're often referred to as "smile lines" because they can become more noticeable when you smile. Over time, due to various factors like aging, sun damage, or smoking, these lines can become more pronounced even when you're not smiling.Marionette Lines:&nbsp;These are the lines that run vertically from the corners of the mouth down towards the chin, giving the appearance of a downturned mouth. The term "marionette lines" comes from the resemblance to a marionette puppet's mouth. As with smile lines, these can become more prominent with age, sun exposure, and other lifestyle factors.Both marionette lines and smile lines are common signs of aging. There are various cosmetic treatments available to reduce their appearance, including both non-surgical and surgical solutions.Both marionette lines and smile lines are common signs of aging.

What are the differences between marionette lines and smile lines?

I'll be traveling to my hometown for a filler procedure, specifically for my frown lines (which I've had done before) and possibly for the under-eye tear trough area (which I've never had done). I'm considering flying back on the same day or the day after the procedure, but I'm concerned about potential issues. Please excuse the question if it seems basic, but I typically experience significant ear pain when the elevation changes during a flight. Thank you for your insights!

Thanks for the question. You should be able to flying a couple of days after your surgery. If any unexpected incident happens in your treatment process, this time can be extended or shortened. I wish you all the best.

Is it safe to take a flight the day after receiving injectables for frown lines?

I've scheduled an appointment with a trusted local injector. However, an unexpected work trip overseas arises just 36 hours after the appointment. While I don't mind temporary swelling or bruising, I'm concerned about the potential impact of flying on the long-term results. Thank you for your advice.

Could flying after receiving chin and cheek fillers potentially result in any lasting effects?

Fillers or laser treatment for under-eye troughs: What's the better option for a 30-year-old female non-smoker?

For under eye hollowness, volume restoration would be a better option along with a lower blepharoplasty (if there is excess skin, and fat tissue in the bags under the eyes). For this fillers can be used as well as fat grafting. You may want to have a try with fillers first as they are temporary. A more permanent option is fat grafting, which is your own tissue and contains stem cells therefore it will have a more rejuvenating effect. Each individual has a different anatomy so treatments should be tailor made. It's best to consult a board certified facial aesthetics specialist in person and discuss your options.

Is it possible to use fillers to address my facial asymmetry and narrow appearance?

Fillers (along with fat injections) can help shape the face. Increasing width, length, creating definition, restoring volume, increasing prominence in some areas and such. They can also help improve asymmetries in the face. If you also intend to add more definition to your face, you may also benefit from a buccal fat removal surgery. It's best you consult a board certified facial aesthetics specialist and discuss your desires and options.

Is it possible to use fillers to address my facial asymmetry and narrow appearance?

Can fillers be considered as a solution to enhance the width and facial details? I have a slim face, which creates the impression of a long face shape. I've been self-conscious about the shape of my face and head for several years. I had a toxic ex-partner who used to criticize my face, saying it's too long, and I've received hurtful comments from others as well. While my head height measures as average, the width is slightly below average. I'm wondering if fillers could help widen my face, as I feel that adding an inch of width would greatly reduce the perception of length. Where would I need to get these fillers injected for the desired effect?

You seem like you can benefit from fillers for more facial definition and to add more width to your face. Also fat grafting could be an option. It's best to consult a board certified practitioner in person. After an examination, you can make a decision and go along with the procedure even on the same day if you like. Hope this helps.

What could be causing one side of my face to appear irregular, and what steps can I take to address it?

Everyone has some degree of facial asymmetry. It seems like one sides of your face is lacking a bit of volume. This can be helped with injectable fillers or fat grafting. A well skilled practitioner should be able to resolve your issue. You can also create and enhance the ''triangle of youth'' with these methods, which gives the face an ''attractive look''.

Hello! After the injection of filler (such as Juvederm or Restylane), how long does the lidocaine remain in your skin? Does it persist for the same duration as the filler or dissolve before that time? Thank you!

Lidocaine is used during antesthesia. Lidocaine won't stay on your body a long time. İt will dissolve in two hours.
