We have almost the same facial structure: oblong face with long, recessed chin & similar facial features. I also have a long overly tall nose with a slight downward pointing tip. These features bother me a lot The procedures I'm considering are 1. Rhinoplasty 2. Facial fillers to round out my mid face 3. Chin augmentation (vertical reduction and maybe some forward advancement) 4. Lip lift but I'm scared it will make my smile look toothy and gummy Would this suffice to improve my appearance?
Answer: I look like Lady Gaga. How can I change this? Nose job, fillers, chin augmentation, and lip lift? Without your photos- it is impossible to evaluate accurately. Generally speaking, rhinoplasty can shorten the nose, refine the tip. After initial exam- a surgeon will outline a treatment plan that is right for you. It is best to seek in person evaluation by a Board Certified PS

Answer: I look like Lady Gaga. How can I change this? Nose job, fillers, chin augmentation, and lip lift? Hi and thanks for your question. You need to post your own photos to better assess what your individual needs are. Its impossible tom guide you without proper photos. Post good front and side views and I'll be happy to update my answer.The nose is comprised of certain components, skin, cartilage, mucosa and bone. Whenever any of these individuals components are a dealt with, they affect the others and there is a domino effect. Whomever you finally chose,needs to be very well experienced in cosmetic rhinoplasty . The surgeon needs to realize that cosmetics surgery of the nose is the most complex in nasal anatomy with very little room for error. There is nothing worse than to have good looking nose from which you can't breathe. I encourage you to look up the surgeon you eventually select and make sure they are certified by the American Board of Plastic surgery and have years of experience in performing cosmetic nasal surgery. Furthermore, request to see before and after photos of previous patients by that doctor....not a clinic or surgery center. Do your homework......research and verify the doctor's credentials. Have they had problems with the Board of Medicine, disciplinary or otherwise. Any law suits? I wish you the best on your journey. I hope that the info provided has been helpful. Should you require any further clarification, do not hesitate to contact us. I personally conduct all the consultations and formulate an individual operative plan based on physical findings. We are one of only a few in South Florida that employ a web based program called TouchMD. Through this program potential patients from as far away as California can upload their photos. I then review each and everyone and draw my recommendations on your actual picture. This info is made available to you with the use of a private password that only you will have. TouchMD is private and follows all applicable privacy laws (HIPPA). I answer all questions personally, not through patient coordinators or other marketing individuals. Good Luck Dr. PG

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin implant A full set of photographs of the patient is required, not of a celebrity. The rhinoplasty procedure can lift the downward pointing tip and shorten a tall nose. A chin implant can be performed to give added projection and advancement to the under-developed bony mandible.

Answer: I look like Lady Gaga. How can I change this? Nose job, fillers, chin augmentation, and lip lift? Hi, from the attached photos, your cheeks are a bit flat, the chin is weak and the nose could be further refined. The cheeks and chin can be augmented with either a temporary dermal filler (I prefer Perlane) or permanently using Cheek Implants and a Chin Implant. Rhinoplasty would refine and re-shape the nose. Hope this helps.
