Absolutely beautiful job fixing the lower eyelids of that large-eyed lady. That was some serious retraction. I cannot understand why there is not a consistent standard of care and surgeons like you are then tasked with fixing a wholly or partially avoidable terrible outcome. Still, I am glad people like you have the skills and courage to do it.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Catherine O, Thank you for your appreciation. Most issues with eyelid retraction in lower eyelid surgery is from unnecessary skin removal, leading to a skin shortage; and compromising lower eyelid support structures with the commonly performed transcutaneous blepharoplasty approach that involves an incision in the lower eyelid skin. You can refer to these videos on how these common complications are avoided in my practice, and how I help people with these issues when primary surgery was done by another doctor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4W3k2avmdZoa5I kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4OwkoicYs2FqaM kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHqXi2OoebRoeZo kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYWcnoZ4q6afpNE

@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you! This video is about blepharoplasty scars. My upper bleph scar is very visible, though it's improved somewhat with the use of silicone gel. For an "old" upper bleph scar that's obvious, is there anything that can be done to improve its appearance (short of cutting it out)? For instance, will laser help? Thanks.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi@@catherineo8689, Laser treatment is a possibility for improving the appearance of a scar, as well as treatments like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to soften the scar, but an examination of the scar is needed to determine what can best help improve its appearance. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Doctor I watched ur video of whether we should do hair transplant at a younger age or not and said it's not advisable to do it in your 20s. Since I'm 21 years old, I was planning to do it but after watching the video I have some doubts. 1. I know hair is important for looks lifelong but 20 to 30 is the age where we date and marry right. So isn't it better to get a hair transplant at that age. 2. So my doubt is hair transplanted doesn't get damaged. That's lifelong right?. Only other hairs which are not transplanted have the chance of getting damaged. So it can be prevented maximum by taking finasteride right? So if I did a transplant and took medicines like finasteride most of my hair will still remain right? Also what percentage of hair will I lose totally after I reach an age of 50 if I did transplant in my 20s 3. I have been using minoxidil 1ml daily prescribed by doctor but not taking any vitamins but there is no much of a difference and my scalp is visible too much when light falls. Is there any other way to solve this. Or should I do my transplant at this age

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Harry Maguire, A hair transplant is more appropriate after age 30 for several reasons: 1) only 20% of men in the 20s experience hair loss, so men in their 20s keeping up with their peers with a lot of hair will expect more density from a hair transplant to match their peers with lots of hair 2) if you experience hair loss in your 20s, you have a very rapid progression of hair loss, so you are losing hair faster than it can be transplanted, also known as the treadmill effect 3) if you continue to have transplants in your 20s, you won't have any donor hair left in your 30s and beyond 4) the amount of hair density to match your peers lessens as you get older, as more men your age experience hair thinning and hair loss 5) if you continue to have hair transplants without stabilizing rapid hair loss in your 20s, you would have spent tens of thousands of dollars on multiple hair transplants, but won't have much hair in your 30s as your native hair does continue thin after a transplant alone, leaving only sparse transplant coverage. You can refer to these videos on how hair transplants look in men who had them done before age 30, expectations after a hair transplant, how we can improve density and thickness in men who've already had several hair transplants and are taking finasteride, and how we can overcome the limited density of hair transplants non-surgically: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHjOdKxjaJWbfMk kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpfYd2WCpt1qo80 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHrPemhre5lqbtk kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnPIc5V5jbV7fKM

Great video, Dr. Prasad. My mom is 1 month post upper blepharoplasty (full incision) and the line of scarring comes to a “head” at the inner eye corner. It feels sphere-like, similar to a small pimple. Should these scar tissues be a concern? She is currently only using a silicone gel.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi @viluong2564, I suggest you have your mom follow up with her surgeon to determine what it is, but one month after surgery is still quite early in the healing process. My patients don't use gels or ointments this long after surgery, but she should still follow what her surgeon recommends as I don't know details of her surgery, or examined her issue. You can refer to these videos on healing after upper blepharoplasty, why my patients don't use ointments for a prolonged length time after surgery: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mn7UaIiEmtych6s kzbin.info/www/bejne/apSUi4Cerb2Zj7M

Ptosis means hooded eyelids or ? Whats clean up in skin clinic called ? A chin filler lasts how many months

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Anu m, Ptosis means drooping eyelids because the muscle that lifts the eyelids is affected. Hooded eyelids are due to stretched or redundant eyelid skin, which is called dermatochalasis. Chin filler longevity depends on the type of filler used. The most viscous hyaluronic acid filler I use is Juvederm Voluma, which can last up to two years. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@mikebyrd546]

My ophthalmologist just told me don't do this procedure because it causes all kinds of problems. He says it causes thinning of the lids and in some people prevents eyes from fully closing. He said stop considering it. can you address this please? I have severe hooding as I have some Asian bloodline. Also why do some Doctors take out the fat in the lower eyes and others don't?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi mike byrd, While upper blepharoplasty does not cause your eyelid skin to thin, poorly performed surgery can result in the eyelids not being able to fully close, but that's due to the surgeon, not blepharoplasty as a procedure. Removal of orbital fat is the primary reason for lower blepharoplasty, but in upper blepharoplasty, fat removal is often not done in younger patients. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Pranmaliyan Abdul Rahman, Male pattern hair loss and scalp DHT-sensitivity are caused by genetics, not by any behavior. Since pattern hair loss is a genetic condition hardwired into the DNA, it can't be completely cured, but it can be managed to maximize hair thickness, and scalp coverage. You can refer to these videos about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGGWZniZfdafors kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmHXlZeAqZuCg6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJ7aqouJZaloqsk

Sir I am 23 years old. I am suffering from hair loss from last 3 years. A year befor I visited dermatologist and he recommended 2% minoxidil for 4 month and 5% for next 5 months 0.5 to 1ml per day . I haven't seen as such changes in volume and It was making my scalp worst. So I quit the minoxidil and started to modify my lifestyle. But I suffers from lot more hair fall and thinning after quiting minoxidil, Grade 2 bolding. So I watch your videos. Should I go for PRP. because I dont want to have finast. And minoxidil. Doc. Told me to have Low level leser treatment

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Saurav Patil, I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration™ is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIukeJR3qNiYrbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/roSwhZdvpruqhNE

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi thevigneshhh, Finasteride is more beneficial than minoxidil as it can slow down and stabilize hair thinning, and it can be used long-term more predictably. There are more common causes of erectile dysfunction which also affect men who are not on finasteride, including stress, excessive alcohol intake, smoking, lack of sleep, lack of exercise, an unhealthy diet, and aging. Often, men on finasteride overlook their lifestyle choices if they encounter problems, but a healthier lifestyle needs to be considered as well. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Karuna Magar, Hi Karuna, 2 weeks is far too early in your healing to determine final results, and to do a revision surgery because of temporary swelling making results inaccurate.

[@santanacaipirinha9536]

Hi Dr., I have mild ptosis (1mm) of the left eye; no surgeon in my country will operate on it because of their fear of over-correction. I am now considering an upper blepharoplasty for loose skin. I am just wondering if that will make the ptosis more obvious as there will be more visible eyelid?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Santana Caipirinha, Were you diagnosed with eyelid ptosis with a ptosis examination? There is normally a 1-2mm difference in height between the two eyelids, which is within a range not noticeable to others. People with ptosis that have a blepharoplasty done instead may end up with the same appearance, but less skin as the muscle is unaddressed. If you do have slight ptosis, it can possibly be corrected with a Muellerectomy that doesn't involve an incision in the upper eyelid. You can refer to these videos on the differences between ptosis surgery and blepharoplasty; when eyelid height differences need treatment, and when they don't; and how eyelid ptosis is diagnosed and treated: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZiUg56Dj5qcjK8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4jZnX9omc-AkLc kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZi6hJ2HmMpmerM

Sorry to hear about your problem, @missyouflowers2654. The biggest factor of success for surgery, and avoiding complications is choosing an expert, and experienced surgeon. You can have your scar examined if you would like to explore your options for revision, or softening its appearance. I hope this helps you.

Hi Doctor I'm from Pakistan can we get ur tricho stem cell in Pakistan.

Hi Qadeer Aq, As the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment needs to be custom formulated for your individual hair loss profile, the treatment needs to be done in of our offices in the US. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up.
