I have had Three procedures with Dr. Denton. He is Fantastic! Does everthing in his surgery room at his office. Face lift with neck, eyebrow lift, upper/lower bleph. Over a few years. I didn't 'need' but wanted preventatative measures! Me at 53
I feel like he's an honest good doctor. Even his prices reflect his honesty. I called every rhinoplasty surgeon in the lower mainland and Calgary. I felt like Dr. Denton displayed the most photos and did the most change. West 8 Dr.B said there wasn't much he could do you my boxy tip and was double the price. Dr.Denton consultation price goes towards the surgery, which is another nice benefit. The consultation went good. He took some photos and the program was just an picture editor so my front view wasn't particularly flattering but the side profile as spot on. I brought another concern if mine up with my lower or upper eye lids and he was honest. Said I was still pretty young and didn't think it would do much for my face. That would of been another easy couple K in his pocket, but he was honest. Surgery day, I was nervous. He took a few more before photos and into the room I went. The twilight zone which I slept the whole time. I think they spoke to me to let me know I was done but I was a sleep. Something I didn't realize about rhinoplasty, you're about to go through the worst dry mouth of your life the next 4 weeks. Sure there isn't anything inside your nose but it is swollen. I'm 4 weeks out now and my nose is still whistling when I breath but nights have just started getting better. Everyone heals different so you might not experience it for as long as I have. The herbal supplements he gets you to take really do work. My bruising only lasted a week and a day which is incredible when you see other people getting the black eyes. Overall, I am so happy with my results. It's the nose I wanted , still me and smaller. I'm glad for Dr.Denton. I'm really happy I went it and it was a success. Updated on 11 Apr 2025: Update: now that the puffiness has gone down even more, my nose bridge is starting show a tiny bump. I am annoyed by it but over all my nose is still much better and cuter than it ever was,, I just hope as time goes on, the mini bump doesn't get bigger. Adding a photo so you can see how small it is. I can breath through my nose now but it still whistles. That'll go away as time goes on from the swelling
Doctor Denton and his staff were all so friendly and attentive. They were always there to answer any questions I had and made the entire experience so easy and extremely low stress. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience overall. Results were exactly what I was looking for! Recommended him to one of my friends and I would recommend him to just about anyone else :)
Dr. Denton is an Incredible surgeon, I'm just 4 weeks post-op and so far am super happy with my facelift results. Was very nervous about having this surgery but felt at ease with Dr. Denton and his staff, trusted him as he specializes in facial plastics. I look like myself just a younger version. My lower face has definition now and my neck looks amazing. The twilight anesthetic turned out to be the right way to go as well as I didn't have to stay overnight and felt my recovery was much easier. The incisions around my ears are literally invisible, can hardly notice them and no red line or anything. The first week was tough for me as I was a super sweller and looked liked a swollen alien lol I bruised a bit on one side too but I think the pre and post op vitamin regime helped that. I also had an allergic reaction to the polysporin ointment (yeah one of the lucky %) so it was super red and itchy and set me back a few days of recovery but Yuki, Vivian and Dr. Denton were available super fast when I called/emailed pics with the ?s about the reaction and when I discontinued it I healed after 4-3 days from the rash. I used Elastoplast Wound Healing Ointment instead and it worked really well with no rash. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0D6WL1ZH1?refppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title I highly recommend getting a roll of gauze to put inside the face bandage/strap you were for weeks after the head wrap is removed, having the gauze inside you can through out each day as the first week I had some oozing from around the ears as the incision sites healed. Also, I bought a wedge pillow from Amazon (will post pics) that was a life saver as still sleeping on my back at 4weeks and allowed me to be comfortable. I prop myself up on it and put pillows on either sides under my arms...seems to work well. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CQSCBJCB?refppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Round small ice packs and an ice pack that they sell on amazon as well that is for post teeth/jaw surgery was amazing as could strap it over my head bandage. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09XYL4GVP?refppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th1 https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00EUV8G4C?refppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CNXTPGGG?refppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title No real solid foods for a few weeks as it was hard to chew so stock up on protein, collagen powder and frozen fruit, greek yogurt and eggs. Still healing each day seeing the changes. I went out in public with make-up about 2 weeks later, but didn't return to work meetings for 3weeks as didn't want the stress of pushing myself to recover and with me being a sweller I'm glad I took the extra time. btw I'm 57 No regrets, Super happy with my decision to have the facelift with Dr. Denton. Updated on 7 Dec 2024: Just posting some pics of the ice pack that I used for my face/jaw and the little circle ones were great to put underneath the face strap, also the pillow I got on amazon was a lifesaver as I 'm still sleeping on my back and it allowed me to stay propped up and comfortable,
I had contemplated a rhinoplasty for as long as I can remember and I finally went through with it in Feb 2024. I had several consultations with different surgeons and chose Dr Denton because he was incredibly warm and knowledgeable. He made me feel instantly comfortable and answered all of my questions. The office staff and nurses were also lovely and a pleasure to deal with. The entire experience was so seamless. It's been 9 months since my surgery and it's without a doubt the best decision I ever made. I am so happy with the results that Dr Denton achieved - it looks even better than the computer generated images from my initial consultation and I can't explain how much he has transformed my self confidence. Highly highly recommend!!
Dr. Andrew Denton is an exceptional plastic surgeon—kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly talented. I have wanted a rhinoplasty for many years to remove my nasal bump, but it was important for me to choose a surgeon who created natural-looking results and took a more conservative approach. After researching several different surgeons, I felt the most comfortable with Dr. Denton. A family member also highly recommend his clinic, so I felt confident in my decision. The recovery process was smooth and nearly painless. Prior to surgery, he also suggested a few natural supplements, which significantly minimized my bruising and facial swelling. I am now nearly four months post-op, and I could not be happier with my results. I'm incredibly grateful for Dr. Denton and his team, who were supportive and reassuring every step of the way, especially when my initial nerves kicked in with all the swelling. If you’re looking for a plastic surgeon in Vancouver, I highly recommend Dr. Denton. He listened to my goals and exceeded my expectations. I am absolutely in love with my nose.
Absolutely hands down would recommend Dr.Denton and his entire team! I had rhinoplasty after years of considering this and with having a handful of friends & family seeing him I feel confident in referring anyone to reach out if considering rhinoplasty. I am so happy with the natural outcome. Feel more confident in not frontal and profile plus photos! So happy and 9 months post op.
I just love Dr. Denton. What a fabulous person, relaxing, caring, and makes the experience very enjoyable. I went out to a concert eight days after my full facelift, and still had staples around the temples and in the hairline, and nobody noticed other than to stare at me that I looked so fantastic, I’m 70 years old and saved for 10 years to afford this and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done I chose Dr. Denton because I personally seen three other women who had facelift done by him and the results are phenomenal and so natural looking. I look 15 years younger.
After extensive research and several consultations around town, I was referred to Dr. Andrew Denton. Three months ago, I underwent a rhinoplasty, and I cannot thank Dr. Denton enough for transforming both my appearance and my self-esteem. The entire experience, from the initial consultation to the post-surgery care, was fantastic. By following all the provided instructions, my healing process was smooth and free of complications. The clinic staff were also exceptional, promptly responding to emails and phone inquiries and efficiently handling appointment bookings. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Denton and his team to anyone considering this procedure.
Don't waste your time looking at any other surgeon!!! Dr. Denton is not merely a surgeon; he is an artist whose hands orchestrate miracles with precision and grace. He stands head and shoulders above the rest. Dr. Denton, along with his team, alleviated any fears I had from the beginning. His wonderful bedside manner and calm, gentle demeanor put me at ease instantly. Trusting him with my cosmetic goal was the best decision I ever made, he not only fixed my nose but he also gave me a newfound sense of confidence and empowerment. His expertise in plastic surgery is unparalleled, evidenced by the stunning results he achieves time and again. If you're seeking a plastic surgeon.. seriously look no further.
You would benefit from a face and neck lift and brow lift. The first facelift I performed 20 years ago was on a patient similar to you. It is unlikely that you will achieve perfect symmetry, however, by differentially lifting the right vs the left side, a significant improvement in balance could be achieved.
I would agree that this is not what would be considered "normal" 5 days after facelift surgery. I would strongly recommend a visit with your surgeon to discuss your concerns and observations. Damage to a nerve during a facelift is usually, but not always, temporary. If your eye is not closing and remains exposed while you are asleep, you need to ensure that it is being protected and not being allowed to dry out.
It is unusual to have any significant discomfort following rhinoplasty surgery. Make sure to follow all of your surgeons instructions carefully both before and after the surgery.
What your physician said makes no sense. Juvederm Ultra, Ultra Plus, Voluma and Volbella are made of naturally occuring hyaluronic acid that is then cross-linked to provide stability and longevity. They are safe, soft, natural and, if necessary, reversible. As mentioned, Sculptra has its uses, however, in the vast majority of cases where volume fillers are indicated, a hyaluronic acid based filler would be the product of choice.
Nostril assymetry is common this early after surgery. Be patient but also be sure to discuss your concerns with your surgeon during your next follow up appointment.
