Q: Suggestions for plastic surgery makeover?
A:
As Dr. Aldea wisely said, when we meet patients it is critical to first find out what bothers THEM not just dictate a formula from what we are seeing. That being said, there is nothing dramatically surgical in the photo you post but maybe some more views wil reveal a loose neck, a bump on the nose etc. Otherwise, Botox, fillers and a cosmetic makeover would be the best. If you remember the Extreme Makeover show, much of the results you saw were from the hair and make-up makeovers done on the participants.
