I received Botox from Dr. Irvine with beautiful results. I had no bruising and the outcome was subtle and natural. It was like a slight brow lift. It was much better than when I previously had Botox from a different doctor and ended up with a heavy, lowered brow. Dr. Irvine was caring, knowledgable and gentle with the injections.
I saw Dr. Irvine for botox in my forehead and filler in my laugh lines and under my eyes. I could not have been happier with Dr. Irvine and my results! She took the time to explain what she was doing, answered all of my questions, and even gave me her cell phone number and texted to check up on me. I went back to the east coast shortly after my treatment and all of my friends commented on how refreshed and "great" I looked. I will definitely be going back to see Dr. Irvine and have already sent my friends to her (..and they have also gotten excellent results!) It's not easy finding a plastic surgeon that is so honest and straightforward while also being so very talented technically. I highly recommend Dr. Irvine to anyone considering facial plastic surgery or any other non surgical options!
I am glad to hear that your glaucoma is well controlled. Prior to any rhinoplasty procedure, I would recommend getting clearance from your ophthalmologist, in addition to notifying your surgeon. Eye injury during rhinoplasty is extremely rare, and the risk of ocular complications depends on the specific rhinoplasty techniques used. Best wishes, Leslie Irvine, M.D.
It is somewhat difficult to tell without examining you in person, but you could have a small nasal tip bossae, caused by buckling or shifting of nasal tip cartilages as the skin heals and "shrink-wraps" around the nose. I would recommend seeing a facial plastic surgeon so that she or he can feel the tip cartilages to better assess it and decide next steps, which may be a revision surgery vs. injections vs. no treatment. Best wishes, Leslie Irvine, M.D.
Dear Cowboys2017, An otoplasty (or ear reshaping surgery) could help correct the shape of your ears. There are many different techniques that can be used, and most likely you would need some sutures with either scoring or removal of a little bit of cartilage, ideally through incisions on the back of the ear so they are hidden. These cases can be challenging so it is important to see a surgeon with a lot of experience with otoplasty. Best, Dr. Irvine
Based on your photo it looks as though you would likely benefit from an upper blepharoplasty to remove skin and also fat from the inner corners of your eyes. As for the brow, ideally the brow should sit just above the orbital rim. Your brow may be just slightly low centrally. It is possible that you could get away with an upper blepharoplasty and some botox to the glabella, especially if you are nervous about possible side effects of a revision brow lift. And then if you still wanted more you could always do another brow lift later. An in-person examination will be helpful to discuss these options. Best of luck! - Dr. Irvine
Your lips have a beautiful and youthful shape. A little hyaluronic acid filler to the outer parts of the upper lip is a good place to start, and it can be blended with the central part of the lip to give a natrual, fuller, and smooth result. After an in-person examination, I would probably start with Volbella but the experience of the injector is more important than the product used and there are many good hyaluronic acid fillers for lips on the market. Best wishes, Dr. Irvine
