I am 34 year old mother of 2. I have had a nose job 10 yrs ago. I have recently noticed all the skin on my face is starting to sag and my nose appears to be concave. I have also began to notice acne scars and pot marks that are getting worse as the years go by. I have a few overactive sebaceous glands on my nose and have been breaking out as well as dealing with this loss of firmness. Would a chemical peel or ultherapy be a good option for me? Do I need to have a revision nose job?
Answer: Sagging skin and pock marks You have raised a number of issues that you are not happy with. i suggest you consult with a board-certified dermatologist and plastic surgeon to set priorities and discuss a plan of treatment. Pellevé can help to tighten the skin and shrink sebaceous glands. It also helps acne and scarring and surface texture. It is painless and reliably effective, inlike Ultherapy which is very painful and a bit unpredictable in terms of results. So perhaps #Pellevé is a good place to start. A regime of effective topical creams will also help some of the issues you have raised including keeping your acne under control.I notice that you have a deep horizontal furrow in your chin and you may be very happy with a bit of filler in this area.

Answer: Skin resurfacing An excellent way to treat acne scarring and fine wrinkles is with either a CO2 laser or deep phenol/croton oil peel. Either would help significantly.As for the rhinoplasty, you need a formal evaluation from a plastic surgeon experienced in rhinoplasty surgery.

Answer: What To Do For Sagging Skin Of Face and Nose Changes? You have brought up many different cosmetic issues -- skin texture, scars, color, sagging, as well as nasal shape. My suggestion is a formal consultation with a cosmetic dermatologist and/or plastic surgeon. Your skin looks nice, but appears to need preventative treatments such as a peel, fraxel or co2 laser as well as some skin tightening (thermage, ultherapy, pelleve ect). Each doctor has different recommendations based on their experiences. These procedures do compliment themsvles very well for an improved cosmetic outcome. You should also be on long term preventative skin care as well as sun protection. As for the nose, that should be evaluated by a surgeon with experience in revision surgery. I suggest Dr. Paul Nassif in Beverly Hills or Dean Toriumi in Chicago. I wish you the best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Most patients benefit from both a chemical peel and ultherapy. I think that you should be doing both a medium peel and ultherapy for maximum benefit since they work differently and would compliment each other.

Answer: Chemical peel or Ultherapy for sagging skin Hi. A chemical peel is to address sun damage to the surface of the skin (fine wrinkles and sun spots). Although there may be some minor tightening, tightening and lifting is not what chemical peels do. When we age, the skin, subcutaneous fat and muscles all sag. Treatments to fix sagging must address all of these layers. A facelift or Ultherapy would be the procedures to consider for sagging.
