African American Facial Filler

07/06/2016 by Anil R. Shah, MD

There is a fundamental difference in the way different ethnicities age. African American represents a broad range of skin thicknesses, pigmentation, and bony structure. Most patients age with discrete changes within the deeper structures and are affected by volumetric changes within the face and neck by typically not effecting the skin. In Caucasian patients, many… Read More

Middle Eastern Facial Fillers

07/05/2016 by Anil R. Shah, MD

Middle Eastern patients are seeking facial rejuvenation in increased numbers.

Hispanic Facial Fillers

07/05/2016 by Anil R. Shah, MD

While much of the marketing and lay press has focused on Caucasian patients, 20% of all cosmetic procedures performed in the United States are on “non-white” patients.

Lighter skin tends to… Read More

Caucasian Facial Fillers

07/05/2016 by Anil R. Shah, MD

When Caucasian patients are seeking filler for volume loss along the face it is important for patients to realize that volume loss is not confined to one portion of the face, but encompasses the entire face.

Asian Facial Fillers

07/05/2016 by Anil R. Shah, MD

Perhaps the biggest increase in facial plastic procedures has been amongst Asian patients.  Asian patients have traditionally had rhinoplasty and facial contouring as the most common procedures performed.  Facelifting was considered an unnecessary component to the Asian face because it aged differently than the Caucasian face.  Due to the presence of melanin within the skin, most Asian patients age with less… Read More
