I am a huge believer for biostimulators and I know that provided you are injected by a board certified dermatologist with aesthetics experience you would do well with Radiesse. It will support your natural aging process much better than a HA filler!

Please go see your injector as soon as possible as it may be a sign that your fillers are occluding or compressing on important vasculature supplying your surrounding skin.

This typically wears off over the next several weeks. It's important that you go back to your reputable injector, and allow them to see in a short term interval what your sensation of heaviness refers to. typically your injector may need to adjust the number of neurotoxins use in the future if this is extremely bothersome to you. in the future there may have to be a compromise for the numbers of units used in your forehead in order to avoid this sensation.

Your scar can definitely be improved, but it will required a multimodality approach to best enhance your appearance of your skin - definitely microneedling with PRP, laser resurfacing, injectable fillers and possibly hair punch grafts. If you are able to travel to Los Angeles, I would see an evaluation by Dr. Jason Emmer who is a internation expert on these type of scars and a multimodalitity approach.

It is not uncommon for a transient short lived episode of shedding immediately after any procedure aimed at improving hair loss. Seek the expertise of a board certified dermatologist for further evaluation

It can be surgically excised; however, the results can be difficult to predict due to the nature of the nose being so difficult to heal post surgical excisions. There are other minimally invasive options that can be considered (microneedling, punch excisions, HA fillers, laser resurfacing, etc), that are worth reviewing. Seek the expertise of a board certified dermatologist for consideration of your best options.

PDT is used off label for infiltrative BCC. That being said, you have a 20-30% chance of reoccurrence, and if it does, you always have the choice of excising it at a later time. We resorted to PDT for patients that were extremely scar sensitive and would sign a consent knowing the higher than normal chance of reoccurrence.

I would urge you to seek a full consultation with a board certified dermatologist and seek their expertise in achieving your results. In general, you want to achieve an inverted triangular shape with your cheeks being the points of the inverted face. Adding some filler to the chin would help but not give you the overall results that you are looking for. Best of luck

Botox

Fabulous work by Dr. Martinez-Diaz! My Botox came out amazingly. I was nervous, as it was my first treatment, but Dr. Martinez-Diaz and his staff were very reassuring and professional. The treatment itself was quick and painless, and I had no bruising or side effects. I will be back for more when it wears off.

Skin Rejuvenation

Great!

What a great experience. I went to see Dr. Martinez-Diaz without expectations. He took his time explaining skin care to me and put me on a great skin regimen. I thought for sure he’d push service but did not! He advised i start with a good skin regimen and take it from there. I am now obsessed with retinol.

Wanted Lip Plump

I? was hesitant to get my lips done but Dr Martinez made me feel so comfortable and explained the entire process which put me at ease. The procedure was painless and I? was extremely pleased with the results as he made my lips look extremely natural. The procedure took in total 45 minutes and had very minimal swelling

I can't say enough about Dr. Martinez, deserves more than 5 stars!

Dr. Martinez was a joy to work with. More importantly, it was evident from the beginning that he really knew his stuff. He took the time to understand my concerns and then put together a great plan for me. Overall, it was a great experience and I'll definitely be going back to him for any/all derm needs going forward!

Dr. Martinez-Diaz made my lips look amazing! I cannot thank him enough. He is a derm god! I am so pleased with my experience. The medical assistant was great as well, she was super attentive and friendly. I live an hour away from the office and I make the drive just to have my fillers done by him

Superb dermatologist!

I recently had injectable dermal fillers with Dr. Martinez Diaz. He and his staff were all very welcoming, knowledgeable, and caring. He made sure I was given all the pertinent information and preparation I needed before my procedure. Notably, Dr. Martinez has super gentle hands- I did not experience pain, swelling or bruising, hardly felt anything. The results were immediately noticeable. I could not be happier with the results! I look so much younger! I am extremely pleased with my experience and I would definitely recommend him to others.

Will recommend Dr. Gabriel

Dr. Gabriel is awesome! He listens to your concerns and addresses them. He gave me great information on products he uses so I could make the best choices. I had a party and loved all the compliments I received, no one knowing that the fillers the Dr. used helped enhanced a more youthful me. So happy with my results!
