Dr. Duplechain has over 25 years of surgical experience. He is an otolaryngologist, a facial, plastic, and reconstruction surgeon, as well as a cosmetic surgeon. He also has expertise administering minimally-invasive as well as non-surgical treatments.
Dr. Duplechain gave me the ability to breathe through a functioning nose. Each visit before and after I was politely welcomed and consulted. Any questions I had were answered and was throughly consulted before undergoing my procedure. I could not be happier with my new nose and my choice in a surgeon!!!
I didn’t have problems with self esteem… until my husband passed away. I knew I had plenty of life left, but hated looking in the mirror. I fell for all of the gimmicky products that were advertised and promised results only to find I had wasted so much money. My local dermatologist recommended Dr. Duplechain because he’s known to be the best. From the moment I walked in his office I felt comfortable and like I was the most important patient there. I can’t express how professionally, yet kind, his staff treated me. My surgery took years off of my face and gave me a confidence that I didn’t know was possible. I can’t thank Dr. Duplechain and his staff enough for the care they gave and compassion they showed that went far beyond cosmetic surgery. I’ll be a patient for life!
I have been a patient of Dr. Duplechain since 2012 and will forever be loyal to this practice! Dr. Duplechain is not only an amazing surgeon, but is patient and kind. He takes his time with your consultation to truly hear out your goals/expectations/desires. While doing so, he is also meticulous with measurements and recommendations to make sure your results are the best they can be. I have had multiple surgeries with Dr. Dup and would never let another plastic surgeon touch me. Furthermore, his staff goes above and beyond to make you comfortable. Everyone is so sweet and the results speak for themselves! As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
I had a forehead lowering procedure, fat transfer, and CO2 laser resurfacing to the face with an amazing outcome! I LOVE the outcome of the procedure. My friends and family were also amazed at the results. Dr. Duplechain is a skilled surgeon, with a professional and a pleasant bedside manner. I received very professional and personal care from Dr. Duplechain and all of his staff both before, during and after the procedure. They provided detailed information, answered all of my questions and put me at ease. I have complete trust in Dr. Duplechain and would highly recommend him.
My experience with Dr. Duplechain was amazing, from the moment I decided to schedule a consultation in the office. All the staff were so greeting and made me feel comfortable, as well as how informative they were about the procedure that I wanted to undergo. Dr. Duplechain helped me pick the best option for my rhinoplasty, in which he was right. I was pleased with my nose the day that I saw the before and after pictures, as well as the day I got my cast taken off, which is not usual for rhinoplasty patients. I could already see the difference in my nose from the front and the side, as well as an improved profile in my face. The process after surgery went very smooth and I did not experience any complications. I was able to call a nurse at any time if I had any concerns about my nose which was relieving in the time being. Along with this, Dr. Duplechain was very informative to my mother after my surgery so that I was able to receive the best care possible. This made us more at ease during the recovery period as well. I am so glad that I chose Dr. Duplechain for my procedure and I am highly pleased and confident with my results!
Dr. Duplechain did a great job on my nasal surgery. It fixed my sleep apnea and overall ability to breathe. His staff was great and worked quickly with insurance and the hospital to accommodate my tight schedule. Highly recommended.
Dr. Duplechain was excellent! He was extremely thorough, kind, patient, and answered all questions. I had a question on Sunday, the day before surgery, and he called me within 20 mins of contacting answering service! That is a doctor who cares about his patients. He definitely gave me all the confidence I needed to proceed with surgery.
After years of struggling with embarrassing facial hair, I finally bit the bullet and saw Dr. Duplechain for a solution. They did a great job of explaining how everything works and making sure I had realistic expectations. After the 3rd treatment I was blown away!! The results far exceeded my expectations. The staff is so friendly and helpful, always making sure you are comfortable every step of the way. Thank you for giving me my confidence back!

My procedure was a breast lift w lipo. From consult to post ops, I cannot possibly truly express my gratitude to Dr. Duplechain and his staff. I was treated w the utmost respect and care. I results are unbelievable. Any questions I had before and after the surgery were answered quickly and understandably. The staff called me after surgery. Dr. Duplechain called and FaceTimed me to see my progress Bc I am out of town. My results were exactly as he described he would be able to accomplish for me. I received after care (bandages, etc) and cell numbers if I was concerned ab anything. This was my first cosmetic procedure and I will continue to use Dr Duplechain for anything I need in the future. He is compassionate and deeply cares. His surgical nurses were amazing to me and my family. They kept them up to date and offered drinks/food etc during my procedure. I highly recommend Dr Duplechain for his all around professionalism. He is truly a God sent.
Sjogren's syndrome is characterized by dry eye and dry mouth symptoms which may or may not be associated with other autoimmune diseases. As a patient who might have Sjogren's Syndrome, Active Fx should be an appropriate treatment and provide similar results to patients without the syndrome. If a patient has Sjogren's disease, associated with other autoimmune diseases such as Rheumatoid arthritis, and if treatment such as steroids are being utilized, laser resurfacing may not be appropriate because of delayed wound healing and a diminished response of collagen synthesis related to steroid use
Although you may like the appearance of one side of the nose better than the adjacent side, surgery typically involves improving the overall appearance of the nose, and certain procedures performed need to be symmetric in order to achieve the desired results
Fat grafting can be performed under tumescent anesthesia without the need for GA. Although GA is an acceptable technique, it is not required unless there are very specific issues that are not evident in your question. Once the tumescent anesthesia is administered, most patients are very comfortable for the amount of lipoharvest you discussed. Small amounts of local anesthesia are then placed In the face (nerve blocks), and the grafting is completed.
Narrowing the nasal bones and performing tip refinement surgery should provide the changes you requested. Open or closed approaches depending on your surgeon's experience and preference should provide similar results in this case
Laryngospasms are relatively uncommon, but can occur under any anesthesia setting. Under local, if a small amount of blood trickles down your thrown, a similar problem can occur. I would suggest discussing this problem with your surgeon, and develop a plan that is best for your needs
