Healing progression update! I previously posted before & after pictures of this patient. I saw her again recently and we are so pleased with how her healing is coming along. Even though she looked great early on, now at 10 months you can appreciate more of her neck contour and definition along the jawline. We also added a little lip filler 💋

Not your standard otoplasty!👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻 Typically when people think of otoplasty it is about reducing a protruded or "stuck out" ear. This patient was born with excess cartilage of her upper helical rim that flopped forward and caused this appearance. After discussing various options we decided to do an excision of excess cartilage/skin to try and get her ear looking as normal as possible. She healed great and we were both so happy with her results! We did this in the office under local anesthetic in 2 stages. Photos posted with patient permission

"I feel like when I look in the mirror now, I see me!"

I was so happy to see this patient back 1 month after her face & necklift with upper & lower lid blepharoplasty. She still has a lot of healing to go but we are both already so happy with her early results. One of the greatest experiences she's had since having surgery is that she now sees her "real self" looking back in the mirror. She felt like before she looked more tired and sad even though she didn't feel that way. Giving someone back their sense of self is one of the greatest joys in what I do.

I am lucky to have so many wonderful patients in my practice and she is certainly one of the kindest and sweetest I have encountered. I'm so grateful she chose me as her surgeon and we have gotten to know each other through her surgical and post-op journey. I will continue to follow her progress over the course of the year and will try to post updates periodically on how she is doing!

I saw this patient yesterday for a post op visit and we were both so pleased with her healing progress! Her goals for surgery were to maintain her ethnic features while still reducing the overall size of her nose. She wanted to define and contour the tip, narrow the nose from the front view, and increase the tip projection and rotation. Her tip swelling will continue to go down over the next 6 months and I'm looking forward to seeing her again to follow her progress. She loves her new nose so far and it was so fun to see her beaming and radiating confidence!

This patient came to me for a revision face and necklift at the age of 79 years young (!) She had prior surgery in her 50s but felt like her neck was never really addressed and she was ready for a "refresh." She specifically wanted to address her lower face, jowls, and loose skin in her neck.

Despite her age, she was otherwise very healthy and was incredibly active and social. So after a thorough evaluation and discussion, we proceeded with a deep plane face and necklift. She is pictured here 6 months after surgery and has healed beautifully. We are both so happy with her improvements and I can't believe she will be entering her 80s looking this good!

If you have been in my practice the past 2 years, you may have had the pleasure of seeing and talking to Grace. She has been a wonderful addition to my practice and I'm so sad to see her go.

She is starting an LPN program this fall to pursue her goal of becoming an aesthetic nurse injector. She is such a beautiful person inside and out. She is also so genuine, kind, warm, and my favorite part: goofy and silly!

Please wish her the best and send Good Vibes her way for this next chapter of her career!

While it's fun to share "big" before and afters of people who have undergone more major surgery, I also want to showcase some "smaller" procedures I do in the office!

Facial mole or lesion removal is a common request. It is typically done with an excision and suturing but sometimes a shave excision is an option. The nice thing is it can be done the same day as the consult (if we schedule this ahead of time), is done under local anesthesia, and is a quick in and out procedure!

There will always be a scar anytime an incision is made, but the focus is always on minimizing the scar appearance. We discuss the after care, recovery timeline, and scar management at the consult and make sure we are both on the same page with expectations.

I'm excited to share another set of before and afters, this time of a lovely patient who wanted to improve the fullness and heaviness in her lower face and neck. Based on her anatomy and goals, we discussed a central only neck lift with buccal fat removal. This is done with an incision hidden under the chin and inside the cheeks.

She is pictured here after 3 months and we are both so pleased with her progress! The neck area will continue to tighten up and show more contour over the next several months, so we will continue to check on her healing. She also had a little lip filler which looks beautiful on her 💋

I was so excited to see this beautiful patient back in clinic recently! I did her rhinoplasty right before my maternity leave and just got to see her again this week for post-op photos.

Her goals were to reduce the hump, straighten her nose, correct asymmetries, soften the harsh edges and contours, lift the tip, and make her nose overall smaller, more feminine, and proportional with her face. She is healing great and we are both so happy with her improvement!

Hi, 👋🏻 Lana turned 4 months yesterday and I'm officially back to work now! I can't believe how fast the summer has gone and how quickly she has grown. ❤️

I'm starting to see patients again part time and slowly ramp back up with my surgery schedule for the Fall. I'm excited to share before and afters and more about my practice as I get back to working...now as a mom of 3!

Baby Lana was born on 4/12/2024 and Zara & Tala are loving having a new baby sister 🩷 I'm adjusting to now being a new mom of 3 and my husband is fully embracing being a girl dad!

I am so grateful for having a (mostly) smooth/easy pregnancy, delivery, and baby. I feel so lucky and grateful for this time of my life ❤️ I'm currently on maternity leave for about 3 months and plan to be back seeing patients in August 2024.

I also started a personal IG account () but it's private so add me if you'd like to follow 😊
