Frequently Asked Questions

What causes neck fat?

The accumulation of neck fat can result from various factors, both genetic and lifestyle-related. Aging naturally leads to changes in fat distribution and skin elasticity, while genetic predisposition can make some individuals more prone to storing fat in the neck area. Hormonal changes and weight fluctuations also play significant roles. Additionally, weakened platysma muscles and poor posture can contribute to the appearance of excess neck fat, as can water retention due to dietary factors or medical conditions.

Who is a candidate for neck fat removal?

Ideal candidates for neck fat removal procedures are individuals in good overall health who maintain a stable weight. They should have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes and be committed to keeping results through a healthy lifestyle. Candidates should be non-smokers or willing to quit before the procedure, as smoking can significantly impact healing and results. The best procedure choice depends on factors like skin elasticity, amount of excess fat, and desired recovery time.

What is recovery like after neck fat removal?

Recovery experiences vary significantly depending on the chosen procedure. For non-surgical options like Kybella®, patients typically experience 3-5 days of swelling but can return to normal activities quickly. Facial liposuction and NeckTite™ patients usually require 5-7 days of downtime, while MyEllevate® recipients may need a week before returning to work. Neck lift surgery has the longest recovery period, typically 10-14 days before resuming normal activities, with full results visible after several months.

How long do results last?

The longevity of results varies by procedure. Fat removal through Kybella® or liposuction provides permanent fat reduction, provided patients maintain a stable weight. Skin tightening procedures like NeckTite™ and MyEllevate® typically last 3-5 years, while a neck lift can provide improvements lasting 10 years or more with proper skin care and sun protection.

What are the risks of neck fat removal?

While complications are rare under Dr. Miller’s expert care, all procedures carry some risks. Common temporary effects include swelling, bruising, and numbness in the treated area. More significant risks can include asymmetry, infection, or contour irregularities, though these are uncommon with proper surgical technique and aftercare. Dr. Miller takes extensive precautions to minimize risks and ensures patients are fully informed about potential complications during consultation.

Can neck fat removal be combined with other procedures?

Yes, neck fat removal procedures can often be combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments for more comprehensive results. Common combinations include pairing neck procedures with facelifts, chin augmentation, or other non-surgical treatments. Dr. Miller can create a customized treatment plan that addresses multiple concerns while ensuring safe and natural-looking results.

What should I expect during my consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Miller will conduct a thorough evaluation of your neck anatomy and skin quality. Through his proprietary NatraLook® process, he’ll discuss your aesthetic goals and concerns while explaining various treatment options. You’ll have the opportunity to view before and after photos of similar cases and receive a personalized treatment recommendation based on your specific needs and desired outcome.

People with a weak or receding jawline often seek correction to create balance in the lower face. Effective treatments take a weak chin and use various jaw shaping techniques to make a jawline sharper and more proportionate.

The best treatment option for you will depend on your specific needs and goals. Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS, is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can help you create a customized treatment plan that produces natural, beautiful results.

Weak Chin Correction Options in New York

These treatment options can help patients get a better and sharper jawline through chin augmentation:

Dermal Fillers

Injectable dermal fillers provide additional volume and projection to a weak chin. This procedure is quick and does not require any downtime afterward. Results are immediate and temporary, typically lasting 6-12 months. Patients typically need to repeat the procedure once or twice a year to maintain improvement.

Chin Implants

Chin implants improve facial harmony for patients that have a weak chin or no chin. Biocompatible silicone implants come in various shapes and sizes to ensure the implant used for your procedure produces the most natural, proportionate result. The procedure takes about 30 minutes using local anesthetic. Incisions are located under the chin or inside the mouth to minimize visible scarring afterward. Recovery from this surgery is usually 1-2 weeks and results are permanent unless the implant is removed.

GI Jaw

GI Jaw is Dr. Miller’s proprietary procedure for men seeking a stronger and improved jawline. A combination of procedures addresses multiple concerns at one time, including a weak chin, double chin, jowl formation, and sagging skin. Using dermal fillers, NeckTite™ for sagging skin, a surgical neck lift, and/or neck liposuction, Dr. Miller creates a new profile that increases the masculinity of a patient’s appearance.

Weak Jawline FAQ

What causes a weak jawline?

A weak jawline can be caused by a variety of factors. Excessive fat in the area and/or sagging skin can create this appearance. Genetics often play a role in determining profile proportions and can be the culprit when it comes to having a weak chin. 

Can you change a weak jaw with exercise?

A weak jawline is a stubborn issue that does not typically respond to exercise alone. Even if you can reduce fat with exercise, sagging skin may be left behind. The most effective way to address the issue is to seek treatment from an experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Miller.

How to improve your weak chin and receding jawline without surgery?

There are a few ways to alter your appearance without resorting to surgery. Injectable dermal fillers are the most common option. These products add volume to targeted areas like the chin, with immediate results that can last up to one year or even longer in some cases. The drawback is that the treatment must be repeated once or twice a year to maintain positive results.

What is the cost of a weak jawline correction in New York?

The price of treatment is directly related to the procedures used to address the issue. A patient may spend anywhere from $300 to $10,000 depending on what methods are used to improve their appearance. Surgical procedures are more costly than non-surgical methods like dermal fillers, but they also offer permanent results with a one-time investment. Procedures can be combined to get patient-enhanced aesthetic results, and that may factor into the price. After your personal consultation with Dr. Miller, he can give you a more accurate estimation of what the overall treatment will cost.

A ski slope nose is characterized by a curvy nasal bridge that dips before turning upward at the tip, giving the nose a wider shape. A ski slope nose with a severe upturned tip is often referred to as a “Miss Piggy” nose.

While a ski slope nose is typically not a medical concern, those who are unsatisfied with the appearance of their nose have options for correcting it in Manhattan, New York. Rhinoplasty is one effective procedure that produces permanent results.

Ski slope nose treatment options in New York

Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon renowned for his expertise in rhinoplasty. He offers patients customized surgical plans, including nose tip surgery, to achieve beautiful and natural-looking results consistent with their specific needs and aesthetic goals. You may consult our glossary for a comprehensive breakdown of nose treatment options.

Ski slope nose rhinoplasty in NYC

With offices in Manhattan, New York, and New Orleans, Louisiana, Dr. Miller offers rhinoplasty consultations to determine the best surgical procedure for correcting your sloping nose.

With his proprietary Natralook process, the two of you can arrive at a unified vision for your desired results. His collaborative consultation process provides you with a safe environment where you can explore your aesthetic confidence. He personalizes your treatment plan, helping you achieve the best possible outcome.

How does Dr. Miller correct a Ski slope nose?

A rhinoplasty procedure to correct a ski slope nose takes approximately 2-5 hours for Dr. Miller to perform. Ski slope nose rhinoplasty is done under general anesthesia.

Depending on the severity of your sloped nose, as well as your expectations, Dr. Miller can either use an open or closed rhinoplasty technique.

During an open rhinoplasty, Dr. Miller makes a small incision in the columella, which is the tissue that connects the nasal bridge and base and separates the nostrils. This technique allows Dr. Miller to see the nose’s internal structures, allowing him to easily maneuver through the tissue, bone, or cartilage. Dr. Miller then reshapes the nose or repairs any damage.

When performing a closed rhinoplasty, Dr. Miller makes the incisions inside the nostrils and removes the tip cartilage to lessen the nasal tip’s slope. Since any lifting of bone and cartilage is done through the nostrils, there won’t be any visible scarring.

These techniques create a more natural balance between the nasal bridge, tip, and nostrils to complement the rest of your facial features.

Ski slope nose FAQ

What is the cost of a Ski slope nose rhinoplasty in New York?

Factors that contribute to the cost of ski slope nose rhinoplasty include location, anesthesia, surgeon’s fee, and pre-and post-surgery care. Since ski slope nose rhinoplasty only involves the tip of the nose, it usually costs less than a full rhinoplasty procedure.

The actual cost of surgery is provided during your consultation. To learn more, schedule an appointment with Dr. Miller in Manhattan, New York, or New Orleans, Louisiana.

What causes a Ski slope nose?

The following are the most common causes of a ski slope nose:

• Genetics
• Birth defects and gene mutations
• Injuries
• Result of a primary rhinoplasty

Can I get a revision rhinoplasty to address a Ski slope nose?

Revision rhinoplasty can fix a nose slope.

A ski slope nose can be a possible result of a poorly executed rhinoplasty. A ski slope nose typically occurs when the surgeon removes too much tissue from the nose’s middle section. Revision rhinoplasty can reshape the nose to achieve a more natural-looking appearance.

What is the recovery time after surgery?

Patients may return to their normal activities within three weeks, but strenuous physical activities should be avoided for 3-6 weeks. Swelling and bruising will subside within 2-3 weeks, and you will begin to see your rhinoplasty results.

It typically takes 6-12 weeks for full results to be visible, but the healing process continues for the entire first year. Dr. Miller and his team will be with you every step of the way.

By blending art and science with the most advanced surgical techniques, Dr. Miller provides thousands of patients with exceptional rhinoplasty results. Considered an expert in rhinoplasty and other facial rejuvenation procedures, he provides the highest level of care with his personalized treatments in NYC and Louisiana.

Wrinkled or sagging skin on the neck is a common aging symptom that is often referred to as a “turkey neck.” When muscles start to weaken and skin loses its elasticity, turkey neck can be the result. Factors like sun exposure, smoking, and even genetics, can contribute to this development.

As we age, our bodies produce less of the essential proteins elastin and collagen, leading to loose skin and wrinkle formation. Gravity also takes a toll, which leads to excess skin collecting in folds underneath the chin.

Submental fat (fat under the chin) can also appear, creating the appearance of a double chin and making sagging and jowl formation more noticeable. Diet and exercise alone aren’t usually enough to combat this accumulation of fat.

Fortunately, treatments are available to get rid of turkey neck and achieve a more youthful contour.

How to get rid of turkey neck?

Botox® Cosmetic can treat horizontal banding on the neck that often accompanies the turkey neck appearance. Botox targets the large muscle known as the platysma muscle, relaxing its activity to smooth away these lines. Treatment is quick, doesn’t require any recovery time, and results usually last 3-4 months.

Another non-surgical option is NeckTite™. This treatment delivers radiofrequency energy to the treatment area, removing unwanted fat and tightening the skin. A microcannula containing an internal electrode is used to place the RF energy into precise spots where it will have the greatest effect. Fat cells are liquefied and suctioned out of the area, while the gentle heating from the device constricts tissue for a tightening effect. The procedure also triggers the body to produce more collagen for natural, long-lasting improvement.

The best turkey neck treatment for each patient depends on their specific needs and goals. While non-surgical treatments are quicker and require less downtime, surgery provides the most dramatic, long-lasting results.

How does Dr. Miller correct a turkey neck?

Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS, is a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon with more than 20 years of experience performing cosmetic procedures like neck and facelifts. Dr. Miller achieves beautiful aesthetic results that look youthfully natural. He can combine different procedures to get patients the results they want.

Turkey Neck Before & After Photos

Turkey neck FAQ

What is turkey neck?

Turkey neck is characterized by loose and sagging skin underneath the chin and down the front of the neck. Submental fat under the chin can contribute to the aged look of a turkey neck.

What causes turkey neck?

Turkey neck is typically caused by the natural aging process. As we get older, our bodies produce less collagen and elastin, which leads to skin sagging and wrinkle formation. Sun exposure, smoking, and genetics can also contribute to the appearance of turkey neck.

What is the cost of a turkey neck treatment in New York?

A typical turkey neck surgery can cost anywhere from $5,000 – $10,000 in New York. The cost depends on the specific procedures you choose and the results you want. Dr. Miller will discuss your options with you at your consultation and can give you a more accurate estimate at that time.

What is the recovery time after turkey neck removal?

Most patients can return to their regular activities 10-14 days after the procedure. Strenuous activity should be avoided longer – Dr. Miller will advise you based on your specific situation.

Is exercise effective in getting rid of a turkey neck?

Exercise for turkey neck isn’t sufficient for getting rid of the problem. While exercise can result in minor improvements, this is a notoriously stubborn aesthetic issue that requires professional treatment to achieve a satisfactory result in most cases. Surgical procedures offer the most dramatic and long-lasting improvement.

What age does turkey neck start appearing?

You might start to notice this issue as early as your 30s or 40s. The problem tends to become more noticeable over time if it is not treated.

Can I get rid of a turkey neck without surgery?

There are some effective ways to treat a turkey neck without surgery. Dr. Miller offers injectable neuromodulators to reduce horizontal banding, NeckTite to remove submental fat and tighten skin. Surgery addresses multiple concerns in a single procedure with the most dramatic and long-lasting improvement.

Saddle nose rhinoplasty refers to procedures performed on patients with a saddle nose deformity caused by loss of nasal cartilage in the nasal bridge. Many rhinoplasty patients desire an upturned appearance, but in cases of saddle nose, this is more pronounced, giving the nose a concave shape like a saddle. 

Saddle nose rhinoplasty in NYC

Patients with the saddle nose condition can become self-conscious about the appearance of their nose and often suffer breathing issues. As a result, many patients opt for a surgical approach to correct the concave shape and create a straighter nasal bridge. Saddle bone deformity can range from minimal to severe, each requiring a different approach. In minimal cases, non-surgical rhinoplasty using injectable fillers may be able to correct the saddle-shaped nose. In severe cases that impact breathing, reconstructive surgery of the nose may be necessary to achieve optimal results.

How does Dr. Miller correct a Saddle nose?

Saddle nose surgery can present challenges with the lack of cartilage in the nose for reconstruction. When considering rhinoplasty, patients should choose a reputable surgeon specializing in facial plastic surgery. Phillip J Miller, MD, FACS, is a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon recognized as an expert in rhinoplasty. With all procedures, Dr. Miller creates a unique approach to each patient’s situation and desired results. 

During the initial consultation at our surgery center in Manhattan, New York, Dr. Miller will carefully examine the severity of the saddle deformity and create a unique surgical approach to correct the collapsed nasal septum. He uses 3D Vectra virtual imaging at this appointment to help you visualize the results you might expect from your surgery. 

Dr. Miller performs all his work within the NatraLook® Process, which aims to create the results patients desire and boost confidence by enhancing their natural beauty.

Dr. Miller will rebuild the collapsed nose during surgery using cartilage from other parts of the nose or in more severe cases, cartilage from a different part of the body. This restores structure to the nasal bridge for correction of the saddle nose deformity after rhinoplasty.

Saddle nose FAQ

What is saddle nose?

A saddle nose is a condition in which the nose appears to be concave or collapsed due to minimal cartilage in the nose. The loss of cartilage support in the nasal bridge can also lead to an overly upturned nasal tip. This creates a dip—hence the term saddle—that makes patients feel insecure about their appearance, especially from a profile view. 

Learn more about saddle nose here. 

What causes saddle nose?

The saddle shape occurs when there’s a loss of cartilage in the nose. The most common causes of saddle nose deformity are:

• Trauma. If a patient experiences nasal trauma, such as an injury that cuts off blood supply to the nose, the cartilage can actually disintegrate. 
• Prior Surgery. A poorly performed rhinoplasty that involved removing too much cartilage from the nose to make it appear smaller can also create a saddle deformity nose and require revision rhinoplasty. 
• Medical Conditions. Various autoimmune and vascular conditions such as Leprosy, Wegener Granulomatosis, and Relapsing Polychondritis can also decrease blood flow to the septum and result in cartilage loss.

What is the cost of a saddle nose rhinoplasty in New York?

The cost of a saddle nose surgery in New York can vary depending on the unique procedure. To note, insurance companies do not typically cover rhinoplasty. However, if the procedure aims to correct breathing or functional issues, insurance companies may cover a portion of the saddle nose repair. Before surgery, you should speak with your insurance provider to determine if you’re eligible for coverage. 

Dr. Miller’s rhinoplasty cost-analysis guide provides an overview of pricing for rhinoplasty at our Manhattan, New York surgery center. 

What is the recovery time after saddle nose surgery?

Recovery looks different for every patient depending on the unique procedure and their body’s healing process. For example, patients who require cartilage drafts for a major restructuring of their nose may need longer recovery time. However, patients can typically return to work within two weeks after surgery. 

The majority of swelling and bruising typically subsides within a few weeks, with the rest gradually decreasing over the year following the procedure. After surgery, patients are encouraged to sleep upright and elevated to avoid pressure on the nose and minimize swelling.

Rest assured that our experienced, compassionate team in New York will create a surgical approach for your nose that achieves beautiful results. Our goal is to make you feel confident in your skin. 

Contact us to schedule a consultation for rhinoplasty. Dr. Miller and his team of experts will perform an assessment and help you determine if saddle nose surgery is right for you.

A crooked nose can affect the function of the nose as well as its appearance. Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is the only permanent solution to fixing a crooked nose, creating visual and functional results that patients can enjoy for a lifetime.

Crooked Nose Treatment Options in New York

If you’re looking for how to fix a crooked nose, the most effective and longest-lasting option is surgical rhinoplasty. In Manhattan, New York, and New Orleans, Louisiana, Dr. Miller offers options in rhinoplasty for crooked nose patients to give them aesthetically and functionally pleasing results.

When a crooked nose is due to an improperly performed surgery, revision rhinoplasty may be necessary to realign the nose. Dr. Miller is well-versed in revision surgery to repair issues left behind by previous surgeries as well.

Crooked Nose Rhinoplasty in NYC

There are two types of crooked nose rhinoplasty; cosmetic and functional. While cosmetic procedures only alter the appearance, functional rhinoplasty also corrects any breathing problems associated with the condition. 

Surgery for a crooked nose alters the position or shape of bone, cartilage, and skin to realign the nasal bridge and improve functionality when relevant. In addition to fixing a crooked nose, rhinoplasty can reduce nose size or length, remove bumps or humps, or reshape the tip or nostrils.

Like any surgery, you may experience some side effects after having your crooked nose fixed through surgery, such as bleeding, infection, reactions to anesthesia, and scarring.  When you work with a double board-certified, experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Miller, you are likely to enjoy a smoother recovery process and fewer risks associated with your procedure.

Crooked Nose FAQ

What is the cost for a crooked nose rhinoplasty in New York?

Depending on the complexity of the procedure, fixing a crooked nose through rhinoplasty costs patients somewhere between $10,000 and $20,000. Relying on a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Miller can make this a one-time investment with no revision surgeries necessary due to excellent aesthetic and functional results.

What causes a crooked nose?

A crooked nose can be caused by birth defects, a broken nose, or a deviated septum. Less common causes include severe infections, tumors, or nose surgeries.

Can I get a revision rhinoplasty to address a crooked nose?

Yes, you can get revision rhinoplasty for a crooked nose fix. Always work with a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure the highest level of care and the best possible results.

What is the recovery time after surgery?

Swelling typically lasts for about a year, with full aesthetic results revealing themselves after that time. Recovery time varies from patient to patient.

When viewed from the base, the ideal nasal tip forms an equilateral triangle, but for those with a boxy nose tip, the nasal cartilage has a broad, squared-off shape. A boxy nasal tip gives the nose a wide and thick appearance that makes the lower third of the nose look very large compared to its upper portion.

Correction of a boxy nose in New York is similar to that of the bulbous tip, which involves trimming and reducing nasal cartilage during rhinoplasty.

Boxy Nose Treatment Options in New York

One non-surgical option for treating a boxy nose tip is a dermal filler procedure. Through strategically placed injections, fillers can deemphasize a boxy tip by enhancing the tip’s projection, creating better overall nose symmetry, and making the nose more proportionate with the rest of the face.

Permanently treating a boxy nose tip requires surgery. Rhinoplasty for a boxy nose tip involves reshaping the nasal tip to create a better balance with the rest of the nose and other facial features. It is tip rhinoplasty’s goal to improve the appearance of the nose by changing the size or projection of the tip.

Typically, after surgically correcting a boxy nasal tip, results can be dramatic and can improve both appearance and breathing function.

Boxy Nose Tip Rhinoplasty in NYC

Boxy nasal tip rhinoplasty involves tip narrowing techniques to refine the nasal tip and includes trimming of the lower lateral cartilages, removal of tissue between the tip cartilages, and placement of sutures within the nasal domes and between the domes to create a narrower nasal tip.

How Does Dr. Miller Correct a Boxy Nasal Tip?

Dr. Miller typically performs boxy nasal tip surgery using an open rhinoplasty technique. He will conservatively trim the lower lateral cartilages to improve the rotation of the nasal tip, remove soft tissue between cartilages to reduce the boxy shape, and use sutures to bring the tips of the cartilages together to create an enhanced, more defined nasal tip.

A columellar graft can be used to further shape the nasal tip and repair the nasal tip support mechanism. Once the desired nasal tip shape has been achieved, the incisions will be closed.

Dr. Miller can perform surgery for a boxy nasal tip between 20 mins to 1 hour.

Boxy Tip FAQ

Can a boxy tip be corrected with thick skin?

Dr. Miller can refine the shape of a boxy nose tip in NYC despite the thickness of the skin. He achieves this by using meticulous cartilage reshaping, cartilage grafts, and advanced suturing techniques. He customizes each surgical procedure depending on the patient’s unique nasal anatomy and skin type.

What is the cost of a boxy tip rhinoplasty in New York?

Many factors contribute to nose tip refinement cost, including:

• Surgeon’s Fees: Experience and complexity
• Anesthesia: Type, length, and who administers
• Location: Doctor’s own surgical suite vs. hospital
• Pre and Post Surgery Care: Tests, garments, and medication

Dr. Miller has a rhinoplasty cost-analysis guide that includes nose tip surgery for a complete overview of pricing in his Manhattan office.

What causes a boxy tip?

The excessive separation of the lower lateral cartilages or having naturally wide lower lateral cartilages contributes to a boxy nasal tip. This type of nasal tip is most common in people of Middle Eastern or Hispanic descent.

Can I get rhinoplasty for just the boxy nasal tip?

Yes, but it requires a different surgical approach. One possible procedure that typically requires less extensive surgery is a nasal tip plasty or nose tip surgery.

Tip plasty is a nose job that focuses specifically on the nose tip. The tip plasty procedure may involve tip reduction or adjustments to the tip of the nose to create a better angle and more pleasing look without having to undergo a complete rhinoplasty procedure.

A boxy tip nose job may not be as extensive as a full rhinoplasty, but the procedure is still complex and requires a skilled plastic surgeon for natural and desirable outcomes.

Can I get a revision rhinoplasty to address a boxy tip?

Yes. During revision rhinoplasty, Dr. Miller can refine the shape and appearance of the nasal tip. It is best to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who specializes in revision rhinoplasty.

Dr. Miller creates patient-centric treatment plans in his Manhattan office to ensure each procedure is tailored to the patient’s unique facial structure and desires.

With a focus on natural-looking outcomes, Dr. Miller uses the NatraLook® process to evaluate and expand the typical plastic surgery experience into a safe and collaborative opportunity to explore aesthetic confidence. NatraLook ensures that patients receive natural and pleasing results, whether from a tip rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty. Dr. Miller considers your desires, facial structure, and features to create a unique treatment plan that will achieve a balanced and natural-looking nose shape.

What is the recovery time after surgery?

Every patient experiences a different boxy tip rhinoplasty recovery process, but it is generally shorter than recovery after a full rhinoplasty. Patients can expect to remain home resting for 1-2 weeks after a nasal tip surgery.

Patients should avoid strenuous activities, direct sun exposure, and activities where the nose could get bumped or damaged. After a nose tip surgery, patients should sleep facing upright and elevated to avoid pressure on the nose and keep swelling to a minimum.
