So I just had rhinoplasty done 2 weeks ago with Dr. Luis Pedroza AND I couldn't be happier!!! He's a true artist. His father is one of the most renown plastic surgeons in Colombia so he learned from the best. He's amazing, caring, very relaxed and extremely talented. I'm half Colombian and I vowed to only have this procedure done there give they have some of the world's best plastic surgeons! HIGHLY recommend him. And it's a 3rd of the price there than it would be here in the U.S.
Hi, 3 months ago i decided to reconstruct my nose. When i first came to see the de doctor i was really afraid and with alot of expectations but later, i felt so confortable that i didnt hesitate to say yes to the surgery. The clinic is so good that i felt in my home and the people over there are extremely nice. The results where even more than expected, i can describe how happy i am with my change, i feel even more secure. This doctor es reconmendable 100%.
7 months ago I had a Facelift and Neck Lift done by doctor Luis Pedroza and I loved the results!! He is a wonderful person and a very good facial plastic surgeon! The day I met him before surgery, he took over an hour with my consult taking my pictures, doing the photo studio and answering any questions I had. He explained everything and made me feel very safe. I was a bit swollen after the surgery but after 1 week I was looking a lot better. He made me go to appointments every 2 days for the first 2 weeks while he took off all the sutures and stuff. He was very nice as he explained every question that I had. In my opinion he is a very professional surgeon and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to have a facelift and neck lift done. And the best part is that his prices are a lot lower than here in the U.S. and his results are even better!! I'm going to show the pictures that he took me before and after the surgery.
I would recommend a post tragal incision to avoid the scar that the pre tragal insicion leaves. If we do everything fine, I do not leave an unnatural tragus after the surgery. It will look exactly the same as before. It is true that the skin can be a bit thicker than before but if this happens we just thin it down to the level of the tragal skin so it will look the same as before. And With the SMAS Facelift you can rejuvenate your face from 15 to 20 years in my experience. Hope this answers your question. Have a good day
Great question! The best place to place the scars are behind the ears in the retro auricular groove, and behind the tragus of the ear, since this will hide 100% of the scar. Some surgeons make it anterior to the tragus and this is a mistake because this scar will be very visible. A small portion if the incisions are made in the scalp and this is done in a way that it does not destroy the hair folicules, so it will not kill those hairs, and it will hide perfectly this portion of the scar. Also, the best way to avoid a keloid is to leave the skin without any tension and suture it in place. I do this by placing all the sutures in the fascia that envolves all the facial muscles, the SMAS; this way when I suture the insicions, the skin will be totally tension less, and this will avoid the production of hyperthrophic scars and keloids. With the SMAS Facelift you can rejuvenate your face from 15 to 20 years in my experience. Have a good day
IF you want to improve your facelift result, I would recommend am Eyelid surgery to remove the excess skin and fat pads under your lower and upper eyelids. The neck lift can be done in a better fashion and we can improve your results there. Hope this answers your question. Have a good day.
The Crows feet will improve a little with a facelift. The procedure that I recomend and better improves them is the Forehead lift. Of course if you preform both procedures the result with be optimal. And With the SMAS Facelift you can rejuvenate your face from 15 to 20 years in my experience. Hope this answers your question. Have a good day
I would not recomend a 1 hour full facelift. You cannot expect a surgeon to preform a 4-5 hour procedure in just 1 and expect the same results. From my experience surgeons that do fast surgeries usually skip most of the necessary steps of the regular procedure, and what this means is that the results will NOT be the same. You can possibly have a good result for 1 year but dont expect more with a 1 hour facelift. Sometimes what these surgeons do is they only cut some skin arround the ear and suture it back; this tension they leave on the skin will produce an hypertrophic scar or keloid that will be very visible around the ear. So again, please dont expect an artis to preform a masterpiece in only 1 hour. With the regular SMAS Facelift you can rejuvenate your face from 15 to 20 years in my experience. Hope this answers your question. Have a good day
