Refining the nasal tip with rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty provides patients with a way to makes changes to the shape and look of their nose so that it has a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Rhinoplasty can be a complex procedure, because it is not as simple as removing excess tissue. The tissue and internal structures of the nose must be carefully manipulated and adjusted in order to produce the desire results. One of the most common aesthetic nasal issues is the appearance of a rounded or bulbous nasal tip. This issue is typically the result of having nasal cartilage that is too wide or convex in shape. This can […]

Less invasive options for facial rejuvenation

A full facelift is the best option for those in need of major facial rejuvenation due to advanced signs of aging on the face. However, a full facelift is often too extreme of an option for patients who are only suffering from minimal to moderate aesthetic facial issues. In many cases, a mini-lift or energy-based rejuvenation procedure is the better option. These less invasive options offer noticeable results and a shorter recovery period. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Gentile uses fractional radiofrequency to reduce wrinkles and increase skin tightness. Intense pulsed light may also be used to improve skin color for […]

Volbella

Volbella, a newly-approved injectable filler, promises full, smooth, kissable lips – all in a single comfortable treatment. Let’s face it: our society is obsessed with full, bee-stung lips à la Kylie Jenner and Jennifer Lawrence. In fact, in 2015 the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) conducted a national survey asking more than 1,000 women which celebrity’s lips they would most like to have. Jennifer Lawrence came in first place, followed by Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Garner, Angelina Jolie, Kylie Jenner, and Beyonce. “We live in the age of the selfie, and sometimes the feedback from these images is not always good,”says  Dr. Gentile, who has 30 […]

So what about fillers?

Fillers are fun. Fun for me means extraordinarily safe and extraordinarily effective. This was not always true. Twenty five years ago we used bovine collagen. It lasted six weeks, had to be over corrected, and looked un-natural for two weeks.  Human collagen came next and other than reduction in sensitivity reactions, did not add much benefit.  None of that is the case now. Hyaluronic (HA) acid changed everything. It is made in a lab, no longer using animal or human sources.  Chemically, it is essentially just like what is naturally in your body.  HA’s are clear gels. Over correction is […]

The precision of fractional co2 laser technology

Laser energy is incredibly powerful and can provide amazing benefits for the health and appearance of your skin. The key to the excellent results laser treatments can provide is the complete and precise control we have over the entire process. Fractional CO2 laser technology can provide dramatic improvements to the texture, tone, and appearance of your skin. The term “fractional” means that the laser targets and treats numerous microscopic areas of the skin while leaving other areas undamaged. This allows for faster healing. Thanks to this amazing and precise technology, facial plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Gentile is able to remain in total […]
