As we age we lose volume, particularly in the upper portion or cheek area of the face. This can result in additional sagging in areas of the lower face affecting one's jowles, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. Juvederm adds volume to your face by augmenting the cheek area so the entire face appears more revitalized and 'lifted'. Depending on the amount of correction needed, Dr. Edwin F. Williams may recomend either Juvederm Ultra or Juvederm Ultra Plus.
The FDA has approved Juvederm to last up to one year. Depending on the area treated, some patients are even seeing up to 18 months of cosmetic results from their Juvederm. Juvederm is produced by Allergan, the makers of Botox® Cosmetic.

He wants to have surgery but I feel he is too young.

November 19th

My 8-year-old son is constantly teased because of his large ears. He wants to have surgery but I feel he is too young, is still growing and may regret having surgery in the future. What can I say to him to deter him from wanting this?

Obviously, a decision to have surgery on a child's ears should be a well informed decision and something that both the parents and the child wish to proceed forward with. In our experience, children at the age of 5 or older are good candidates for the surgery. This is the age when they begin to experience some degree of teasing at school and become more aware of their body image. At the same time the ears themselves have grown to close to their final adult size and therefore the surgery can be done safely and effectively at this age.

One of my ears has always been slightly larger than the other.

November 17th

One of my ears has always been slightly larger than the other. I now have the financial ability to undergo otoplasty to fix my issue. What is the usual recovery time for such a procedure so that I can give my job notification?

Typically the recovery after otoplasty is approximately one week. There still may be some residual tenderness and mild degree of swelling after the procedure however most patients are able to return to work after one week.
