Hey, guys. I’m very happy to introduce you to our head operating room nurse, Lisa Calhoun here. Hello. many of you who know me and my practice have met or interacted with Lisa in some way or the other, Lisa’s primary responsibilities is to manage everything that happens in the operating room and to manage all of the pre-surgical and post surgical care of our patients. Now, what does that mean? That means we have a team of nurses that help me with my surgical patients, and we have a team of operating room personnel and aftercare clinical personnel, which includes physician assistant and surgical technicians. So there’s a there’s a big team behind the scenes that helps me do what I do in the practice.
And even now we have Dr. Singh, and other doctors to be coming on board. So there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes. We get a lot of questions about after care, before care, so we will be reviewing this. We have Mallory behind the camera over there, our PA Mallory who’s our surgical PA and helps me manage all of my clinical, surgical patients, and she’ll be asking some frequently asked questions, and Lisa will be answering them.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What are the different types of anesthesia offered in your practice?
I’m going to start by saying that there are in general, three types of anesthesia offered for Facelift surgery:
One is general anesthesia, which is most commonly performed by most surgeons in the country. Then there’s IV sedation, which is also considered twilight, and then there’s oral sedation with local anesthesia. In my practice, we mostly do oral sedation with local anesthesia or IV sedation, at least I’m gonna go over some of those two the nuances between the two. We do about ninety percent of our surgeries under oral sedation with local anesthesia (also known as our “awake Facelift”). So there’s a combination of medications that will be sent to the pharmacy. And what that means is the patient will get some oral Valium, which will help relax them during the procedure. They will also get some type of pain medication, which will help keep them pretty pain free during the surgery. We’ll also get an antibiotic and an anti-nausea medication. So that’s the oral sedation local anesthesia.
IV sedation is performed with an anesthesiologist, they are present throughout the procedure. And the patient will get an IV and will be administered propofol to keep them very comfortable during the surgery. So that’s primarily also known as twilight. So those of you that have had a colonoscopy before that’s what the IV sedation is.
General anesthesia is performed by an anesthesiologist where the patient is asleep and has a complete loss of consciousness.
The choice is completely up to the patient.
And so the patients who are asleep throughout the whole case?
Yes. Exactly. And we do have an anesthesiologist present. Yes. And the difference between that in terms of the patients prep before surgeries, they require a medical clearance. So all patients getting IV submissions will require a medical clearance even if you’re healthy, and if you are healthy and you’re having it under local with oral sedation, no medical clearance is typically needed.
Are there any medications that I need to take before surgery?
So generally speaking, no. We want you to pick up all the medications patients from your pharmacy that we send to you and bring them with us. There, it it will depend on the procedures that you’re scheduled for whether you start the medications before or not. And your nurse during your pre op appointment will review that with you.
What should I wear the day of surgery?
So, day of surgery, what we would like you to wear head to toe would be no makeup on your face. So no harsh chemicals, no heavy lotions, anything like that. A bra with no underwire, so make sure that you don’t have any metal on your body that includes any jewel where your valuables leave those at home. A tank top of some sort. would be preferred and comfortable sweatpants or shorts are are preferred for day of surgery. Also, slip on shoes are generally better.
Do I need someone to stay with me overnight?
It is recommended that we have that you have somebody to stay overnight for the first twenty four hours post-operatively. That does include someone to physically come and pick you up from our facility. An Uber driver or cab does not count as a responsible adult does have to pick you up.
If I’m getting a facelift, when is my post operative appointments?
You’ll be seen in our office by one of our nurses or PA’s (Physician Assistants) the next day, so that’s twenty four hours after your surgery. You’ll come in for a post operative wrap change. During that appointment, we welcome your significant other or caregiver to come in and witness that appointment. They will will show you and your caregiver how to clean the incisions how to do the post operative dressing change during that appointment. And then there’s a one week follow-up appointment after facelifts for the sutures to come out and then typically a two week (follow- up) appointment. In terms of when you get to see me after surgery, I try to see all my patients, but I’m usually in the operating room. I will see you within the first couple weeks after surgery. Obviously, if there’s any kind of complication or issues, we’ll be right there with you.
If I’m not having a facelift, if I’m having eyelid surgery or liposuction or a different type of procedure that your office offers, When are my follow-up appointments?
The next follow-up would be one a week following surgery. And if there’s any issues or concerns, we can definitely see you sooner than that. a physician assistant or nurse will be following up with you every day up until your one week follow-up. Our office is in touch with you regularly after surgery, and you can also be in touch with our office. We have an online system, a messaging system where you can send pictures and text us, it’s called Klara. So you’ll be getting that information at the time of your pre op appointment and after search.
What do I do if I have a concern pre or post op?
So we have an online messaging service that you can communicate right after your pre op appointment up until even after your surgery that you that it monitored by a physician assistant and nurses all day every day. From that during this normal business hours, nine AM to five PM, Monday through Friday, and the occasional Saturdays we are open. After your surgery, if you have a postoperative concern, you will have the operating physician’s cell phone number to contact in case of emergency or any urgent concerns.
What should I eat before surgery?
So if you’re going under oral sedation with local anesthesia, we do recommend that you have a light meal before arriving. Please do avoid caffeine though. If you do go under IV sedation, we recommend that you not eat or drink anything after ten PM thing.

Facelifts, also known as rhytidectomies, are a popular cosmetic surgical procedure that can help to rejuvenate the appearance of the face and restore a more youthful look. If you’re considering a facelift, one of the most common questions you may have is: when is the best time to get one?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the ideal time for a facelift will vary depending on a number of factors, including your age, skin type, lifestyle, and overall health. However, there are a few general guidelines that can help you determine the best time to get a facelift.
Firstly, it’s important to understand that a facelift is a surgical procedure, and as such, it comes with some inherent risks and recovery time. It’s generally recommended that you be in good overall health before undergoing a facelift, as this can help to reduce the risk of complications and ensure a smoother recovery. If you have any underlying health conditions, such as high blood pressure or diabetes, it’s important to discuss these with your surgeon beforehand.
Age is also a consideration when deciding on the best time for a facelift. While there’s no set age limit for a facelift, most people who undergo the procedure are in their 40s to 60s. This is because the skin tends to lose elasticity and collagen as we age, which can lead to wrinkles, sagging, and jowls. However, it’s important to note that age is not the only factor to consider, and younger or older patients may still be good candidates for a facelift.
Skin type is another important factor to consider when deciding on the best time for a facelift. If you have very thin or delicate skin, you may be more prone to scarring or other complications. Similarly, if you have a history of skin cancer or other skin conditions, you may need to take additional precautions before undergoing a facelift.
Finally, your lifestyle and overall health can also play a role in determining the best time for a facelift. If you smoke, for example, you may be advised to quit several weeks or even months before the procedure, as smoking can interfere with the healing process. Similarly, if you have a very busy schedule or a high-stress job, you may need to plan for additional recovery time to ensure that you can rest and heal properly.
Ultimately, the decision of when to get a facelift is a personal one that should be made in consultation with a surgeon who specializes in the area of work you are seeking to have done.

“I was lucky enough to go back to Uganda, Africa again in September 2021 where I spent two weeks there wtih an organization called Operation International. It is a group based out of Southampton, New York and they run team-based medical mission trips all over the world. I have attended medical mission trips with them in the past and it truly is one of the most humbling experiences. I am grateful to work with other volunteers (nurses, physicians, surgical technicians, and those alike) who volunteer their time and money to help those in need.”
In a recent interview, Sarah Jessica Parker shared her thoughts on undergoing a facelift in one’s 40s. As a facial plastic surgeon in New York, I believe it is crucial to address this topic and provide a comprehensive perspective on the optimal timing for a facelift. While I agree and disagree with Parker’s comments, I would like to shed light on the reasons behind considering a facelift and the factors that influence this decision.
Age Considerations:
From my experience, I have found that the best age range for a facelift is typically in one’s 50s. At this stage, patients often exhibit a youthful and refreshed appearance. It is worth noting that in past generations, individuals in their 40s often looked like people in their 50s today. However, due to advancements in healthcare, increased awareness, and a better understanding of aging, people now age more gracefully.
Importance of Lifestyle Factors:
In recent years, people have become increasingly aware of the detrimental effects of certain lifestyle factors on skin health. Factors such as smoking, sun exposure, lack of sunscreen usage, and poor diet can accelerate the aging process. Fortunately, individuals today are more conscious of these influences and make conscious efforts to protect their skin. Moreover, the decrease in pollution exposure also contributes to better overall skin health.
Facelift Patients in their 50s:
As a facial plastic surgeon, I have found that patients in their 50s are often ideal candidates for a facelift. However, it is important to emphasize that I regularly perform facelift procedures on patients both younger and older than this age range. Ultimately, the decision to undergo a facelift is a personal one and should be based on individual circumstances.
Choosing the Right Surgeon:
When considering a facelift, it is crucial to find a surgeon who specializes in this procedure and whose results you admire. Experience and a proven track record are key factors to consider when selecting a surgeon. Take the time to research and consult with various surgeons to ensure you are comfortable and confident in your choice.
Sarah Jessica Parker’s Perspective:
In the case of Sarah Jessica Parker, I do not believe she has missed the chance to undergo a facelift. However, as a public figure, she may prefer making natural changes over time through maintenance treatments rather than undergoing surgery. This approach allows for subtle enhancements that align with her personal preferences and career in the public eye.
Deciding to undergo a facelift is a personal choice that should be made based on individual circumstances, preferences, and the guidance of an experienced facial plastic surgeon. While the optimal timing for a facelift often falls within one’s 50s, every patient is unique. Factors such as lifestyle, skin health, and personal goals should be considered when making this decision. Remember to choose a surgeon who specializes in facelift procedures and has a proven record of delivering exceptional results. By understanding these factors and making an informed decision, patients can achieve their desired rejuvenation while maintaining their natural beauty.

As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, fall brings with it a sense of transformation and renewal. It’s a season of change, and what better time to consider rejuvenating your appearance with a facelift? Dr. Dilip D Madnani, a renowned facial plastic surgeon, believes that fall is the perfect season for a facelift, and in this article, we’ll explore why.
One of the key advantages of choosing fall for a facelift is the milder weather. Summer can be sweltering, and undergoing a surgical procedure during hot and humid conditions is not ideal. Fall offers cooler temperatures that are more comfortable for recovery. Patients can avoid the discomfort of overheating or excessive sweating, allowing for a smoother and more pleasant healing experience.
Fall is characterized by shorter days and less intense sunlight. This reduced sun exposure can be beneficial for patients who have recently had a facelift. Sun exposure can lead to skin damage, pigmentation issues, and slow down the healing process. By choosing to undergo a facelift in the fall, you can minimize your sun exposure during the crucial initial stages of recovery.
Scarring is a natural part of any surgical procedure, including facelifts. During the fall, you can easily conceal any residual bruising or scarring with scarves, hats, and other fall fashion accessories. This gives you the freedom to heal discreetly and maintain your privacy during the recovery period.
For many people, fall is a time when they start thinking about the upcoming holiday season. By scheduling your facelift in the fall, you can have ample time to recover and look your best for the holiday gatherings and celebrations. You’ll be able to confidently face friends and family, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
A facelift is an investment in your long-term appearance and confidence. By having the procedure in the fall, you’ll have several months of recovery and healing before the busy summer months roll around again. This means you can enjoy your results to the fullest during the following spring and summer, allowing you to make the most of your newfound youthful appearance.
Fall also provides an opportunity for thorough consultation and planning with Dr. Dilip D Madnani and his team. With the slower pace of the season, you can take the time to discuss your goals, ask questions, and ensure that your facelift is tailored to your unique needs and desires. This personalized approach is essential for achieving the best possible results.
Choosing to have a facelift in the fall is a strategic decision that offers numerous advantages. From the comfortable weather and reduced sun exposure to the opportunity for discreet healing and planning for holiday events, fall is the perfect season for a facial rejuvenation procedure. Dr. Dilip D Madnani and his team are ready to guide you through the process, ensuring a safe and satisfying experience. Embrace the change of the season and transform your appearance this fall for a more youthful and confident you.
Embarking on the journey of facial plastic surgery is a transformative decision, one that can enhance both your physical appearance and self-confidence. The key to a successful and fulfilling experience lies not only in the skilled hands of your surgeon but also in cultivating a positive attitude and realistic expectations. In this blog post, we will explore some essential strategies to help you approach facial plastic surgery with a confident mindset and a grounded outlook.
Before undergoing facial plastic surgery, take the time to reflect on your motivations. Understand the aspects of your appearance that you wish to enhance and consider how these changes might positively impact your life. A positive attitude begins with a clear understanding of your goals and an acknowledgment of the personal growth this journey can facilitate.
Choosing a qualified and experienced facial plastic surgeon is paramount. Establish open communication and trust with your surgeon, discussing your expectations and concerns openly. Knowing that you are in capable hands can significantly contribute to a positive mindset.
Seek support from friends, family, or a support group of individuals who have undergone similar procedures. Positive encouragement and shared experiences can be invaluable as you navigate the emotional aspects of your surgical journey.
A crucial aspect of maintaining realistic expectations is to educate yourself about the procedure you’re considering. Understand the potential outcomes, recovery process, and any associated risks. Your surgeon will provide information, but proactive research can further solidify your understanding.
During your consultation, openly discuss your expectations with your surgeon. They will provide insights into what can be realistically achieved based on your unique features and anatomy. Clear communication ensures that both you and your surgeon are on the same page.
While facial plastic surgery can produce remarkable results, it’s essential to recognize its limitations. Unrealistic expectations can lead to dissatisfaction. Embrace the idea that enhancement is about refining and rejuvenating, rather than achieving perfection.
Maintaining a Positive Post-Surgery Mindset
Recovery is a gradual process, and results may not be immediately apparent. Practice patience and trust in your body’s natural healing abilities. Celebrate small milestones along the way, and understand that the final results will evolve and improve over time.
Nurture your emotional well-being throughout the recovery period. Engage in activities that bring you joy, practice self-care, and focus on the positive changes occurring both inside and out.
Approaching facial plastic surgery with a positive mindset and realistic expectations sets the foundation for a satisfying and empowering experience. By cultivating self-awareness, surrounding yourself with support, and staying informed, you can embark on your journey with confidence, embracing the transformative power of facial plastic surgery.
Remember, the goal is not just physical enhancement but an overall positive impact on your well-being. Trust in your decisions, stay connected with your support network, and revel in the journey towards a more confident and radiant you.
In October 2023, Operation International’s Team Manhattan headed to Tarija, Bolivia. This marked the team’s second expedition following a highly successful mission to Uganda in 2022, during which they conducted over 80 life-changing surgeries in just one week. The focus of this year’s mission was directed towards patients dealing with head and neck issues, along with children afflicted by cleft lips and palates. The dedicated team of surgeons, anesthesiologists, residents, and nurses, with the generous support received, was enthusiastic about extending much-needed care to the people of Bolivia.
Embarking on the transformative journey of a facelift is an empowering decision, a step towards embracing your best self. While the results promise a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance, it’s crucial to acknowledge the part of the process that isn’t often discussed—the healing journey, particularly when it comes to scarring. In this blog post, we’ll delve into what you can expect in terms of scarring after facelift surgery and explore strategies to optimize the healing process.
Scarring is a natural part of the body’s healing process. Following a facelift, incisions are carefully made in inconspicuous areas to minimize visibility. While modern surgical techniques aim to create minimal scarring, it’s essential to be realistic about the fact that some degree of scarring is inevitable.
In the early stages of healing, scars may appear red or pink and slightly raised. This is a normal part of the healing process and is often temporary. Over time, scars typically fade and become less noticeable.
Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative care instructions. Adhering to these guidelines is crucial for optimal healing. This may include keeping the incision areas clean, avoiding direct sunlight, and refraining from activities that could put strain on the healing tissues.
There are several topical treatments available that can help reduce the visibility of scars. Silicone-based gels, vitamin E, and other scar-minimizing products can be beneficial when used as directed by your surgeon.
Laser therapy is a non-invasive option for improving the appearance of scars. Discuss with your surgeon if laser treatments are suitable for your specific case and how they can be incorporated into your post-operative care plan.
Medical Tattooing: this is a wonderful option especially for those who have developed changes in color where the incisions were placed. This is an option that can make the scars essentially ‘disappear’ and blend into the surrounding skin
Steroid injections: these can be used commonly for any raised or hard areas that develop around the incision sites
Proper nutrition and hydration play a significant role in the healing process. A well-balanced diet and adequate water intake can contribute to optimal tissue regeneration and help scars heal more efficiently.
Scarring evolves over time, and it’s important to be patient. While scars may be more noticeable initially, they often fade significantly with time. Trust the process and maintain open communication with your surgeon about your concerns and progress.
While scarring is an inherent aspect of any surgical procedure, the beauty of a facelift lies in the transformation it brings. By understanding what to expect in terms of scarring and actively participating in your healing journey, you can optimize the results and enhance the overall outcome of your facelift surgery.
Remember, each individual’s healing process is unique, and your surgeon is your best resource for personalized guidance. Embrace the journey, follow the recommended post-operative care, and watch as your newfound radiance gradually emerges, scars and all—a testament to the strength and resilience of your transformative journey.

Dr. Madnani joined Operation International to Rakai, Uganda in October 2018 to provide medical care to orphans and treating the ill.
“The amount of planning, equipment and personnel that have to be coordinated for this trip really is mind blowing. Operating room Equipment, operator room supplies, recovery room nurses, operating room nurses, anesthesiologist, nurse anesthesiologists, surgeons, volunteered personnel, emergency room physician. Then equipment to see patients afterwards, change dressings then coordinating with local doctors to maintain care afterwards. Word is out that we are here so medical students, nurses and doctors from around Uganda have been stopping by to see what we do.”
If you want to support our missions, donations are greatly appreciated to help provide medical equipment needed for these procedures.
Lifts are surgical procedures designed to take years off your appearance by firming the skin and smoothing away facial lines. There are many different types of lift procedures available today, which can make it difficult to know which procedure will provide you with the best possible results. To make your choice a bit easier, we have provided the basic lift procedures we offer, along with their specific benefits.
A full facelift is more invasive than a mini lift, but will offer the most dramatic and longest-lasting results in the mid and lower face areas. A full facelift will address the same concerns as a mini lift, including sagging skin in the mid-face, the formation of jowls along the jawline and deep facial creases around the nose and mouth. This procedure will also begin to treat skin laxity of the neck, reducing the appearance of horizontal lines known as platysmal bands that appear on the neck over time.
Full facelifts also uses incisions placed inside the hairline and around the ear to reposition underlying tissue and muscle, while removing redundant skin and creating a smoother, firmer facial profile. Dr. Madnani performs his facelifts with local anesthesia, resulting in a shorter recovery period than those performed under general anesthesia. Recovery period is generally only 7-10 days.
If your signs of aging are primarily located around the neck area, a neck lift may be the procedure that offers you the best results. This procedure specifically focuses on creating a smoother, more youthful transition from the jawline to the chest. Specifically, it will address the following concerns:
Like other lift procedures, a neck lift can be performed on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia for most patients. The incisions for a neck lift are placed underneath the chin or behind the ears to minimize post-operative scarring. Through the incisions, extra skin and tissue are removed to create a smoother, sleeker neck contour.
Dr. Madnani is highly experienced in all of these lift procedures and will help you determine which surgery will provide you with the best possible outcome. In some cases, a combination of procedures may offer the best results. To learn more about the lift procedures available, contact Madnani Facial Plastics today at (332) 216-0176 or (516)299-9861.
Plastic surgery has traditionally been linked to advancing age, as patients have primarily used these procedures to restore a youthful appearance. However, today’s cosmetic procedures, including those dubbed “anti-aging” treatments are used at increasingly younger ages as those patients are beginning to tune into the benefits of these procedures as well. Dr. Madnani has a few basic guidelines on the best time to begin some of these popular treatments.
It can be difficult to set an age in stone as to when to begin your anti-aging regimen. This is because the skin ages at very different rates, depending on a variety of factors. Some of those factors might include:
For some men and women, the aging process may begin quite early, so they will see visible signs by the time they celebrate their 30th birthday. Others may not become bothered by lines and facial laxity until their 40s or even later. The best gauge for when to start anti-aging treatments is the condition of your skin, not the candles on your birthday cake.
According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, more than 40 percent of all cosmetic procedures performed in 2015 were on patients between the ages of 35 and 50. Another 30 percent of all patients fell between the ages of 51 and 64. Liposuction was the most popular procedure in both of these age groups. Facial procedures included eyelid surgery and rhinoplasty. Non-surgical treatments are also popular among these age groups, particularly injectable treatments like Botox and dermal fillers.
Signs of aging may begin to appear in the 30s, but they are usually fairly subtle and do not require the most invasive treatments to produce the best results. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons lists the following cosmetic procedures as the most performed among this group in 2015:
By the time most people hit their 40s, the signs of aging are probably a bit more prevalent. Surgical procedures are required more frequently at this point to achieve full desired results. Popular procedures for this age group include:
By the time patients hit 55, aging symptoms have usually become more pronounced. The menu of cosmetic treatments is shifting more to surgical procedures, although some non-surgical treatments can still produce positive results for some patients. The most common treatments for this age group include:
While treatments like Botox and dermal fillers are typically recognized for their anti-aging benefits, they can also be used to effectively enhance facial contours and features without surgery. For this reasons, patients as young as their 20s may pursue these treatments to correct a gummy smile, augment the lips or correct a host of asymmetries.
No matter what your age, Dr. Madnani can help you determine the best cosmetic procedures for your specific concerns and goals. To learn more, contact Madnani Facial Plastic Surgery today at (332) 216-0176 or (516)299-9861.
Fall has officially arrived, have you booked your plastic surgery yet? There are a number of reasons to go under the knife this time of year. With many benefits to be gained, make this fall the season when you finally reach those aesthetic goals you have been putting off. We have five good reasons why fall is the best time to schedule your plastic surgery.
Many people find that fall is a relatively easy time to take off from work, after the rush of summer vacations and before the bustle of the holiday season. Many businesses actually slow down by the holidays, making time off more available to employees. Since some plastic surgery procedures require 1-3 weeks of recovery time, the ability to take sufficient time off to heal ensures your procedure is both as safe and successful as possible.
When you book a plastic surgery procedure during the summer months, it can be difficult to take time away from all the outdoor activities. When the temperatures cool off in the fall, spending those days indoors recuperating can be a lot more inviting. This is a pleasant time of year to curl up in front of the fire with a book or binge watch your favorite television show under your favorite afghan.
Plastic surgery involves incisions, bandages and healing time, which can all be a dead giveaway you had a cosmetic procedure. When the temperatures cool down and the jeans and sweaters come out, it is much easier to conceal those telltale signs under cool weather clothing. You can even grab a scarf, hat or gloves to hide incisions, swelling and bruising during the recovery process.
Plastic surgery can be pricey and insurance does not typically cover procedures done strictly for cosmetic reasons. If you plan your procedure near the holidays, you might be able to get that special someone to give you at least a portion of the procedure as a gift. Keep in mind this is also a good time of year to offer the gift of plastic surgery to someone you care about that you know has specific aesthetic goals they would like to meet. Most plastic surgeons provide the ability to purchase gift certificates that can be used by a recipient.
Depending on the specific procedure you decide to undergo, you can be completely healed up within a matter of weeks. This means that if you schedule your procedure now, you may be ready to flaunt your new look in time for New Year’s Eve. Even if you book a bit later in the season, you can rest assured you will be recovered in time for your spring break adventure.
Fall is an opportune time for plastic surgery for a number of reasons. Dr. Madnani offers a variety of procedures at his Manhattan office, giving his New York City patients options to help them reach all of their aesthetic goals. To learn more about your personal choices in plastic surgery, contact Madnani Facial Plastics at (332) 216-0176 or (516) 582-8976.
Fat transfer is a way to add volume to one area of the face or body while sculpting another. The process actually consists of two steps; removing fat from one area of the body and then replacing those fat cells in another area to restore youthful volume and fullness. For many patients, fat transfer has replaced injectable dermal fillers as the go-to choice in facial enhancement. Dr. Madnani and the staff at Madnani Facial Plastic Surgery has some good reasons why fat transfer might be the right choice for you as well.
Unlike dermal fillers, fat transfer offers two benefits in a single treatment session. First, liposuction is used to remove fat from one area of the body. The procedure focuses on stubborn areas of fat that mar the overall body contour and do not respond to diet and exercise efforts. This minimally-invasive surgical procedure can be performed under local anesthesia and improves the body profile in those common problem areas like the waist, abdomen and thighs.
As one area of the body is carefully sculpted to create a smoother, leaner contour, another area in need of additional fullness can be enhanced. Removed fat cells are purified so that they can be injected in a similar fashion to dermal fillers. Common areas for fat injections include under the eyes, along the cheekbones or jawline or in the temple area. By plumping up these areas, we can effectively restore volume for a more youthful facial profile and appearance overall.
Using a patient’s own fat to augment areas of the face completely eliminates the risk of an allergic reaction. The results also tend to look and feel more natural than synthetic fillers, since it is the patient’s own cells that are used in the injection process. Fat transfer also lasts much longer than the results of dermal fillers. While more than half of the fat placed into the area will eventually be reabsorbed by the body, the remaining fat will maintain positive results for many years. On the other hand, dermal fillers only tend to last for 6-12 months before a touch-up procedure is required.
Fat transfer is a highly customizable procedure that can be tailored to the unique needs of each patient. Liposuction areas can be carefully chosen based on the areas of the body that the patient is most unhappy with. As long as there is sufficient fat for the transfer process, patients can opt to remove isolated deposits from the midsection, hips, thighs, buttocks and back. Even smaller areas like under the chin and behind the knees can be sculpted through different liposuction techniques.
At the same time, injections of fat can also be strategically placed precisely where the patient would like to see improvements. Because there are no incisions involved with the procedure, there is no worry over leaving visible scarring behind. A single liposuction procedure may also yield enough fat cells to cover more than one area of the face, allowing the plastic surgeon to make subtle improvements throughout for an overall improvement in appearance.
Fat transfer is performed right in Dr. Madnani’s office, using local anesthesia for the liposuction procedure. Patients are able to return home the same day as treatment and most are back to all of their regular activities within a few short days. To learn more about how fat transfer can benefit you, contact Madnani Facial Plastic Surgery at (332) 216-0176 or 6(516)299-9861.
Those of us with round faces know the struggle: making the “duck face” in photos. Trying (unsuccessfully) to master the art of makeup contouring. Performing facial exercises to no avail. Unfortunately, round, chubby, chipmunk-like cheeks are a stubborn problem—one that’s impossible to suck in, cover up, or erase with an Instagram filter. Thankfully, there are minimally-invasive ways to get rid of paunchy, sagging cheeks—give Dr. Madnani a syringe or a scalpel, and he can dramatically re-sculpt and slim your features.
Interested in learning more about how to slim a round face? Read on to discover two of Dr. Madnani’s favorite, minimally-evasive methods.
Feel like your cheeks are too full? Crave sharp, well-defined cheekbones? If you’re nodding your head ‘yes,’ then buccal fat removal might be the perfect fit for you. This minor surgical procedure can help slim round cheeks, giving your face a narrower, more contoured look.
The hereditary condition of plump cheeks is caused by excess Buccal Fat—the fat pads that sit right below your cheekbones. When these pads are large, they can hide the contours of your upper cheekbone and lower jawbone. You can’t get rid of buccal fat through diet or exercise, either—people with excess buccal fat can have plump, chipmunk-like cheeks, even if they don’t have much fat on the rest of their body.
Great question! While it’s difficult to say without a consultation, Buccal fat removal might be a good choice for you if:
If you plan to lose weight, you’ll want to make sure your cheek fullness is due to buccal fat pads—meaning, it’s a hereditary issue. Why? If you have buccal fat removed and then lose weight, your face might look thinner than you’d like.
Buccal Fat removal is a minor surgical procedure. Dr. Madnani performs it under local anesthesia, so you can head home directly after.
Here’s how it works: First, Dr. Madnani places some local anestheisa around your mouth- similar to what a dentis does. Then hemakes incisions on the inside of your cheeks. He then, gently “teases out” all or some of the fat pad, depending on your desired look. In most cases, this outpatient surgery takes less than an hour!
Luckily, recovery time for buccal fat removal is minimal. After the procedure, you should plan to spend at least 48 hours recuperating at home.
To help alleviate swelling, you’ll need to regularly apply ice packs to your cheeks and keep your head elevated at all times. For the first few days after your surgery, you should try to sleep upright. (You can prop yourself up in bed with pillows, or sleep in a recliner.)
Another important thing to note: Dr. Madnani uses intraoral incisions, meaning your stitches will be on the inside of your mouth. Because of this, you’ll need to eat a soft or liquid diet for three to four days following your procedure.
In most cases, patients can return to work three to four days after their procedure.
However, you will experience noticeable swelling for about seven to ten days after surgery. If this concerns you, you might want to stay home until it subsides.
Nope! Because Dr. Madnani uses only intraoral incisions (inside your mouth),you won’t have any visible scars.
You can expect swelling, bruising and discomfort immediately following surgery. For the first two or three days after your procedure, your cheeks will appear puffy and noticeably swollen—but by day seven, the swelling will start to fade. Within ten days, your new and improved cheeks will begin to reveal themselves.
Note: It takes time for your skin to fully heal and settle into the hollowed-out space caused by buccal fat removal. Because of this, it can take up to three months to see your final results. (However, you should have a pretty good idea of how your cheeks will look by the end of the first month.)
Buccal Fat removal offers beautifully long-lasting results. However, if you experience significant weight gain, it is possible for your cheeks to regain some plumpness.
When performed by a well-trained surgeon like Dr. Madnani, buccal fat removal is a safe and straight forwardprocedure.
However, all surgery carries risks. While rare, side effects may include numbness or other changes in sensation, prolonged swelling, injury to the salivary duct, asymmetry, and temporary or permanent facial muscle weakness.
Using fillers to make your face look slimmer may seem counterintuitive, but it’s actually a wonderful non-surgical solution to sculpting the face back to its youthful shape.
Dr Madnani likes to place fillers in areas of the cheeks where contouring with make up is performed. He prefers to use either Restylane Lyft or Voluma to augment and liftsagging. These fillers are specifically designed to restorevolume for a more youthful facial profile and often used in conjunction with Botox injections to rejuvenate the entire face.
As you age, your cheeks start to deflate and sag—strategically-placed dermal filler injections like Voluma or restylane lyft can correct age-related volume loss, providing you with both contour and lift. What’s more, volumizing the midface creates a more youthful facial shape, making your features appear angular rather than saggy and rounded.
Using Botox in tandem with fillers can be extremely beneficial as well. Botox relaxes the muscle contractions that cause fine lines, while fillers plump up the folds and hollows, providing a lifting effect. Using the two in conjunction is a highly effective way to smooth, lift, and rejuvenate the entire face.
Maybe you were born with defined cheekbones, but have recently noticed sagging. Or maybe you want to get the cheekbones and definition you’ve always dreamed of, but never had. In either case, fillers like Voluma or restylane lyftcan be a great solution for you.
Voluma/Restylane lyftis affordable and non-invasive for both men and women alike, and can help a wide range of clients achieve youthful midface volume. It is primarily designed to treat the following areas:
Additionally, if you’re experiencing some sagging but aren’t ready to commit to surgery, fillers like Voluma/Restylane lyftare the perfect option for you. The lift can besubtle fairly subtle, but the end result can be life-changing.
Typically, it takes 15-30 minutes to administer the fillers. Pain is minimal—because the injections contain lidocaine and are administered using a very fine needle, discomfort is kept to an absolute minimum. Other adjunctive measures such as ice packa and a gold beauty wand are used to further improve comfort for the procedures.
Similarly to facial fillers, Botox ordysportis administered using very fine needles. The area is numbed with topical ice packs combined with a gentle touch, the treatment results in little or no discomfort for the patient.
With both fillers,results can be seen immediately. Even better? Patients are able to return to regular activities as soon as the procedure is over, with zero downtime. Wrinkle reducers like botox or dysport, take a few days to start seeing some results and full results are seen in 10-14 days.
As previously mentioned, you can resume most activities right away after receiving fillers. However, to minimize swelling and bruising, we recommended avoiding strenuous physical activity for the first 24-48 hours after your procedure.
There is no downtime after Botox/dysport injections, either—patients may return to work and regular activities right away.
Results from Voluma/restylane lyftcan be seen right away, although full results may not be apparent for a week or two. Your skin may appear softer, with a more rounded, youthful appearance.
With both fillers,results can be seen immediately. Even better? Patients are able to return to regular activities as soon as the procedure is over, with zero downtime. Wrinkle reducers like botox or dysport, take a few days to start seeing some results and full results are seen in 10-14 days.
After receiving injectables, usually there are no side effects. Patients leave the office with minor redness which dissipates over the next hour. It’s not uncommon for patients to experience minor soreness, swelling or minor bruising (rarely) in the area around the injection sites. Use an ice pack or cold compress to help alleviate these symptoms
Voluma/restylane lyft is one of the longest-lasting fillers, with results extending up to two years for some patients depending on the number of syringes used.
Botox in the cheeks will generally last for four to six monthsin most patients.

Have you ever noticed that having a sharp, defined jawline is a sign of health and youth? A well-defined jaw can help you look younger at any age. In men, a strong jaw reflects confidence and for both men and women, definition in the chin and jawline can also improve the neck contours and refine a double chin.
If you have struggled to get the jawline of your dreams despite diet and exercise, or predisposed to never have a defined jawline or a weak chin, do not worry! You have some non-surgical and surgical options available, thanks to modern plastic surgery.
For patients of all ages who want to boost their appearance and add balance to their facial features, Dr. Madnani and our team of injectors offer the option of jawline contouring as well as non-surgical chin augmentation.
Both women and men can take advantage of injectable cosmetic products to create a contoured jawline or defined chin that frames the face; a weak or poorly defined side profile can be improved. However, there are differences in technique and shapes to produce a difference in results for male and female patients. Contouring a man’s jaw with fillers requires the development of angles and straight lines to enhance the bone structure of the individual. A balanced profile for a woman is characterized by soft curves, which feminize the face. Men and do well wider and more projected chins resulting in a squarer appearance, while for women, a narrower angled appearance is preferred.
Dr. Madnani and our team of injectors are able to improve the jawline by combining fillers with masseter reduction using a neurotoxin such a Botox. In females, it can produce a more symmetrical, heart-or V-shaped look to the face for people whose face, when viewed from the front, is more of a square shape. A well-defined angle in the jaw provides space for framing the face from the chin. Fillers can be used to shape, define and enhance the contours of the lower face. It also has the added advantage of reducing the presence of loose skin and, when paired with chin augmentation, it can eliminate the presence of a double chin.
Another non-surgical option is Kybella to the neck and chin fat. If you have mild excess fat, you can melt this fat with a melting agent called Kybella (deoxycholic acid) is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment to reduce fat under the chin. This minimally invasive, nonsurgical procedure is designed to contour away the double chin. The results are permanent, assuming you maintain your overall weight since the fat is physically melted.
The cost varies based on the treatment option you choose. Options and pricing vary depending on products used; fillers vs neurotoxins vs deoxycholic acids. Schedule a consultation to receive an accurate price!
The best part of non-surgical jawline contouring is that there is minimal to no downtime! It all depends on the products used. Fillers and neurotoxins such as botox do not have much downtime associated with them.
In general, the pain is very tolerable. A topical anesthetic can be applied to the treatment area to lessen any discomfort. Cold compress or Ice is also used to help minimize any discomfort or swelling afterwards.
Patients who suffer from TMJ (temporomandibular) syndrome can also benefit from receiving Botox, or a different neurotoxin to the masseter muscle, as it helps to reduce the contraction of masseter muscle.
Patients who have a small to significant amount of fat and loose skin around the neck and jawline areas also have surgical choices. The main procedure available is liposuction or a combination of laser with liposuction- we have a device that is part of the SmartLiposuction platform called Precision Tx.
Neck liposuction and jawline liposuction can remove fat and give you a perfectly sculpted jawline. This procedure is best if you have fat that is just under the skin and not under the neck muscles. You will also notice mild to moderate skin tightening with liposuction. Since the fat is physically removed from the areas, this is a great permanent option. Combining this procedure with laser using the Precision Tx device from the SmartLipo platform, adds further skin contraction. As the laser is placed underneath the skin, and angled in two directions – the skin undersurface and the surface of the underlying platysma muscles- it heats up these areas during the treatment and causes contraction of the overlying skin over the next few months, resulting in a shrink-wrapping effect to further contour the neck and jawline.
Whether you decide to go the nonsurgical or the surgical route, our team will be able to accommodate and figure out what treatment option is best for you.
If you’re considering facial rejuvenation, the best first step is to set up an appointment for a consultation. We offer a variety of contact options for maximal convenience (phone, email, text, etc). During the initial contact (phone, email, text, etc), our staff will ask you questions to get you prepared for your visit and will schedule a time for you to come in for an in person or a virtual consultation.
Once you’ve scheduled your consultation, here are a few things you should do to prepare:
You are able to fill out your medical history and registration forms online through our patient portal. Be sure to mention any family history or past medical conditions, as well as current conditions and medications. You can fill this our prior to your consultation or on the day of at our registration kiosk.
Write them down ahead of time so you don’t forget them at the time of the visit. We want to make sure that you have all your questions answered and all your concerns addressed, no matter how small they may seem. We also recommend that you bring a photo of yourself from 5-10-15 years ago so we can analyze your goals with what we are able to achieve.
During your consultation, you will have your pictures taken and meet with your patient coordinator and the physician. This is the time to express any questions or concerns you have. Our expert patient coordinator will explain the aging process so you have an understanding as to what your treatments options will be. You will then meet with the physician and they will determine the best course of action with you.
It’s important to know our elective procedures will not be covered by insurance. If you need assistance into payment options like financing; our patient coordinators can walk you through the process of applying.
Different procedures require different healing periods, so you should be ready to check your schedule to find the best time to get the procedure you want. You may need to take time off from work, depending on the surgery, so you should factor that in as well. Do you have vacation days you are able to use? Do you have any big events coming up in your life? These are questions you will want to ask yourself in selecting a surgical date. You will receive a patient journey booklet from us as your own personal guide throughout the entire process.
Two heads are better than one as there may be a lot of information to process. Again, getting cosmetic surgery is a big decision, so you may find it helpful to discuss your options and get a second opinion from someone you trust. Ultimately, the choice is up to you, but it never hurts to get the reassurance from a friend, relative or other loved one.
If you do all of these things to prepare for your visit, we’re sure you will have a successful and productive consultation, and you will leave the office feeling confident about your decisions.
We’re here to help you every step of the way before, during and after your journey with us.
Have you noticed a sagging neck and jawline? Tired looking eyes? A loss of volume in your face? Most patients who are interested in facial rejuvenation are looking to address a multitude of concerns. Whether my patients have important life events such as weddings or reunions, they feel they look tired, or skin care, makeup and injectables are no longer doing what they used to do. To put it simply, they are not happy with the effects of gravity and aging and want to look on the outside as good as they feel on the inside.
Rejuvenation options are googled, doctors are researched, and consultations are performed. Going forward, an essential, yet efficient change is going to be the acceptance and eventual reliance on virtual consultations. I for one, am supportive of virtual consultations- I feel they are convenient, easy to set up, and it saves precious time for my patients.
My practice has always offered virtual consultations for our out of town and international patients, so why not widen the catch. Social distancing has pushed our boundaries and has forced us to think ‘outside of the box’ of what our status quo was.
During a virtual consultation, I am able to provide high quality virtual analysis. Once the patient and I have decided on best procedure or treatment options, we can schedule the date, and setup upcoming calls/appointments to prepare you for the procedure date. Usually, the conversation around dates has to do with travel plans and work commitments. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, it has really pushed the boundaries for those of you that are able to work from home and has created a profound transformation in how many of us will continue to work going forward. The limits of working remotely in the office is being tested and will definitely become widely accepted as a new norm. This has many benefits by allowing flexibility in scheduling our lives and improved quality of life for many employees, to be able to work and be productive without dealing with commutes or distracting environments- for us, its going to provide our patients with ample time to recover from their procedures.
The conversations I have with my patients concerning 10-14 days away from work will no longer be such a worry. If you don’t want anyone to know that you are undergoing a procedure, you can resume working from home within 3-4 days after your procedure. This has the advantage of remaining productive during your ‘healing time’ without interfering too much with your occupational commitments.
Additionally, our recovery schedules will open up as I believe that our travel schedules will not be the same. Whether it’s for work or pleasure, I think we all will be a little weary about travel in the near future, so what better use of any ‘staycation’ time than recovering from your procedures.
The future will likely be a blend of what life was like before the COVID-19 crisis and now- the ‘new normal’, and I think we will all adapt to what works.
It’s summertime and the combination of heat and humidity leads to increased sweating. Hyperhidrosis is a common complaint, where patient become self conscious about excessive underarm sweat or smell. Some people are predisposed to increased underarm sweating or some just prefer to sweat less in that area. We have many patients who work out regularly and want to sweat less in the underarm area or tend to soak through their clothes in the summer time. Bacteria on your skin coming into contact with sweat produced by the glands in the underarm is what leads to unpleasant odors.
At our practice, we regularly treat patients with Hyperhidrosis using botulinum toxin (botox) injections. These are quick to perform and can improve ones quality of life dramatically. The effects of botox work by blocking the release of neurotransmitters that activate the sweat glands to produce sweat; in the same way they work to decrease muscle movement in the face to soften wrinkles. The sweat glands are reduced in function by about 80%, thereby decreasing the amount of sweat produced. This leads to a significant improvement in quality of life with decreased odors and sweating through clothes. Patients report being less self conscious about excessive underarm wetness showing through their clothes and ‘fresher’ workouts.
As with botox injections to the face, botox placed in the underarm area is very safe. Its FDA approved to use to treat Hyperhidrosis in the underarm area and has been used ‘off-label’ in the hands and feet. We also place it on the face in areas where people complain of excessive sweating. It does not lead to excessive sweating in other parts of your body as you will still sweat from the areas treated, however, at a much slower rate that doesn’t lead to any uncomfortable situations with much improved quality of life.
After placement, it takes an initial 2-4 days to start working and full effects are seen in two weeks. The treatment lasts up to 6 months, after which a repeat treatment can be performed.

“As you may know, I have traveled several times to lend my hands to underserved patients in Third World countries. In the last year I traveled twice to do so, once to Uganda and the second to Myanmar. There are no words to describe the effect of the work we do on the lives we touch, but there are words to describe its effect on my life, it makes me appreciate what I have every day and more than ever. I am hoping that you will take a moment to read a bit about the work we do, and maybe even support it by making a small donation.”
Here at Madnani Facial Plastics, we are always looking into ways in which we can give back and support our communities. Now, more than ever, this is a priority and we would like to announce that for the month of June, we will donate 10% of our sales* to Feeding America. Dr Madnani has been a big fan and follower of Tony Robbins for many years and this is one of the charities that has been vetted and supported by him and his organization.
The Feeding America network is the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, working to connect people with food and end hunger. Donors, staff, and volunteers all play an important role in our efforts to end hunger in the United States.
The 1 Billion Meals Challenge aims to provide 100 million meals per year through 2025 to families struggling with hunger in the United States. Now in its sixth year, the campaign has provided more than 517 million meals to people in need through the Feeding America network of 200 food banks.
