Nip This Tuck That

Challenging Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery case today…by Dr. Francis R Palmer, III:  I performed a very challenging Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery case today on a beautiful young actress.  Some years ago she had gotten a chin implant by another Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon here in Beverly Hills.  She came to me some time ago and just wasn’t happy with the way that she looked….yet, she couldn’t put her finger on what the problem(s) were.  She is quite beautiful, but in an industry where beautiful is the norm, actresses and actors need to keep looking great…not just good!  I would use adjectives like stunning, extraordinarilly handsome and the like to portray the level of attractiveness that the entertainment industry seeks.  So, this was a big problem for her.

 I used the “Palmer Beauty Principles” and several things became obvious, at that point.  These were corrected today, in the OR as I removed and replaced the old chin implant for a smaller, more sleek and feminine chin implant.  Despite a CT Scan, there was some bone erosion that I had anticipated.  I used a nasal rasp to gently file down the edge of bone that was contributing to the overly-masculine look of the chin.  Pinned back one ear, a bit of Radiesse injected here and there and things turned out perfectly.  Just another day in the land of “Nip and Tuck.”
