Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
On my 4th day of juvederm my top lip is bigger than my bottom lip.
Swelling after Juvederm
Oct 26, 2016
Oct 26, 2016
Swelling is common after lip injections and will decrease over 1-2 weeks. If it does not improve over this time you may have the filler dissolved. There is a good chance you will love your lips again after the swelling resolves.
In good health,
Could I go out with friends right after getting lip injection from Juvederm? My apt is at 3pm on Sa
Ways to avoid swelling and reduce bruising
Oct 18, 2016
Oct 18, 2016
Lips are delicate areas that tend to swell after injections. Overall, expect 1-2 weeks of swelling and the possibility of bruising after any injection. Having said that, there are ways to minimize swelling including, not overfilling, icing, and using cannulas for injections vs. sharp needles. In my experience, 3 hours is enough time between injections and enjoying a nice dinner with friends.
In good health,
Dr. Keel
I have streak marks on forehead and cheeks after my first IPL Treatment.
Not enough overlap
Oct 18, 2016
Oct 18, 2016
These steaks are the result of not enough overlap on the IPL pulses. I recommend returning for another treatment as these areas will respond well to blending.
In good health,
Dr. Keel
Dilated capillaries (like in the pic) on scalp can be treated successfully with Laser?
Shallow Vein Removal
Oct 18, 2016
Oct 18, 2016
These look like very shallow small veins. There are a number of lasers which can remove these including pulsed dye lasers (Vbeam) or long pulse Nd-Yag lasers. I recommend you see a specialist familiar with laser vein removal for treatment.
In good health,
Dr. Keel

It will take a combination of several treatments to offer you the best
results for acne scar improvement. You
would do well with fractionated CO2 laser resurfacing, subcision of the deepest
scars, and dermal fillers to smooth the skin. Also, a pulsed dye laser
treatment is great for removing the redness.
The good news is you can expect the acne scars to improve over time with
your Accutane treatment, and I recommend you wait at least 6 months after
finishing your course of Accutane for...

There
are many techniques to treat acne scars, so consultation with an expert is
recommended to discuss the best options for you. I would use a combination of the Deep FX fractionated CO2 laser along with subcision and filling to improve your acne scars. In good health, Dr. Keel

ActiveFX versus Fractora for overall skin rejuvenation?
Active FX
Feb 25, 2016
Feb 25, 2016
The truth is, there are many devices that are good for tightening and
rejuvenating the skin. You have done one
of the most important things by going to see an experienced cosmetic surgeon or
dermatologist who can evaluate your skin and offer recommendations. Make sure you see plenty of before and after
photos of actual patients treated by your physician with the device you are
considering. Based on your concerns, I
think the Active FX and Deep FX will offer exceptional benefits. In good...
