Before and After | Rhinoplasty | Dorsal Hump Reduction & Tip Refinement.

This patient wanted to improve the appearance of her profile while maintaining a natural look.
She had a deep radix, a dorsal hump, and a fuller nasal tip. Rather than creating an overly reduced nose, our goal was to preserve an elegant, elongated profile that remained in harmony with her facial features.

Her Rhinoplasty included:
· Refinement of the nasal bridge with preservation of a graceful dorsal line.
· Tip refinement while maintaining adequate support.
· Correction of the deep radix to create a smoother transition from the forehead to the nose.
· Preservation of proportions appropriate for her moderately thick skin.

The result is a nose that appears softer, more balanced, and feminine while still looking completely natural and fitting her face.

Grateful to have been invited to speak at the Pacific Coast Oto-Ophthalmological Society ( ) meeting in Hawaii. It was a privilege to discuss two topics I care deeply about—Rhinoplasty and Facial Paralysis—with such an engaged and collaborative audience.

If you’re looking for a meeting with outstanding education, genuine collegiality, and a destination the whole family can enjoy, I highly recommend PCOOS.

One of the things that makes this meeting so unique is the partnership between oculoplastic and facial plastic surgeons. Working closely with Dr. John Ng at Casey Eye has shown me firsthand how much our patients benefit when our specialties learn from one another.

It was also an honor to follow Dr. Carol Bradford’s keynote. She was the first female Chair of Otolaryngology I ever met and has inspired many of us through her leadership. Congratulations on your new role as Dean of the Medical School at the University of Minnesota!

Thank you to the organizers for creating such a wonderful meeting. Its smaller size fosters meaningful conversations, new collaborations, and lasting friendships—all in an incredible setting. As a bonus, I was lucky enough to swim with a honu (Hawaiian green sea turtle), a memorable reminder of Hawaii’s beauty.

Before and After | Crooked Nostrils.

Did you know your nostrils can provide clues about what’s happening inside your nose? 👃
Sometimes, asymmetry of the nostrils isn’t just a cosmetic concern. A crooked or off-center nostril can be a sign of a deviation of the front (caudal) septum—the part of the septum that helps support the tip of the nose.

When this type of septal deviation also causes nasal obstruction, surgery can often:
✔️ Improve breathing
✔️ Straighten the support of the nose
✔️ Improve nostril symmetry as a natural consequence

Every nose is unique, and not all nostril asymmetry is caused by a septal deviation. A careful examination is needed to determine the underlying cause and whether surgery would be beneficial.

These photos show one example of improvement in nostril symmetry after correcting a caudal septal deviation.

Honored to contribute a chapter on Skin and Soft Tissue Management in Rhinoplasty in this outstanding Rhinoplasty text edited by and Edward H Farrior!

When discussing Rhinoplasty, we often focus on cartilage and structural support, but the skin-soft tissue envelope plays a critical role in the final aesthetic result—especially in the nasal tip. Understanding how skin thickness, soft tissue characteristics, healing, and surgical technique interact is essential to achieving natural, long-lasting outcomes.

Grateful to have collaborated on this chapter with Kayva Crawford, MD | San Diego Facial Plastic Surgeon and Peter Eskander, and thankful to the editors for the opportunity to contribute to this incredible resource.

Before and After | Lateral Facelift & Neck Rejuvenation.

Early results at just 1 month. ✨ This patient underwent a lateral facelift, neck rejuvenation, and light laser resurfacing to improve neck contour and jawline definition while maintaining a natural appearance.
No dramatic changes. No “operated” look. Just a refreshed version of herself.

The best part? She recently enjoyed a trip through Scotland focused on nature, history, and making memories—not worrying about her neck in photos.
And she’s still healing, with continued improvement expected over the next several months.

Before and After | Rhinoplasty.

This patient came to see me because she wanted to breathe better and was bothered by the bump on her nose that developed after multiple injuries over the years.
Our goals were to improve her breathing and make subtle refinements while preserving what made her look like herself.

During surgery, we:
✔️ Straightened and strengthened the nose with cartilage grafts
✔️ Improved nasal breathing
✔️ Smoothed the dorsal hump
✔️ Refined and supported the nasal tip
✔️ Added structural support to help maintain tip position when smiling

My favorite part of this result is how natural it looks. Her nose is softer, smoother, and more balanced, but it still fits her face beautifully. If you met her today, you would never guess she had surgery—you would simply think she has a great nose.

It is also a special privilege to care for the children of my OHSU colleagues. Thank you for trusting me with your care and allowing me to share your results.

For many patients, injectables such as neuromodulators and dermal fillers are often their first step into aesthetic treatment. However, as the years go on, some patients notice a shift. Results that once felt seamless and effective may not last as long or deliver the same level of improvement.

This moment often leads to a common question: Do injectables “stop working,” or is there something else at play? In reality, the answer is much more complex.

Grateful for a short but incredibly meaningful trip to COSM ✨

Our facial paralysis panel brought together such an inspiring group—Scott Stephan, JP Pepper, Sam Oyer, and Patrick Byrne—and I feel lucky to be part of a community that is so collaborative and thoughtful in how we care for patients.
The engagement from residents and attendees made it even more special. Seeing the next generation ask insightful questions and push the conversation forward is always energizing.
I also had the chance to highlight the Women in FPRS supplement published in March—such an important effort to amplify voices and perspectives in our field.

Short trip, full cup 💛

Before and After | Rhinoplasty.

“Will people be able to tell I had surgery?”
This is one of the biggest concerns patients have—and one I take seriously. Every rhinoplasty is customized to the individual—their anatomy, their goals, and even their aesthetic.

The best results don’t announce themselves.
They just look like you—in balance.
