Freehold Township, NJ Relocated office to Schweiger Dermatology Group-Freehold

You may be a good candidate for eyelid surgery if you are experiencing sagging in your upper eyelids, puffy bags in your lower eyelids, or both. You may even notice your vision is obscured by drooping upper eyelid skin. It is best to consult one-on-one with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you are a candidate for the procedure. Please contact us online or call our office to schedule your consultation with Dr. Chow.

BOTOX® results typically last about 3 to 4 months before the product naturally wears off. Most people return for touch-up treatments every 3 months to maintain their smooth skin.

All dermal fillers Dr. Chow uses are FDA approved and have long track records of safety. When performed by a qualified professional, such as triple board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Chow, these injections are generally very low risk. In the rare case you experience a complication or change your mind about your results, hyaluronic acid fillers such as JUVÉDERM® and Restylane® can be dissolved at any time.

Rhinoplasty typically refers to a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the nose by narrowing or straightening the bridge, removing bumps, decreasing the size of a bulbous tip, and more. Septoplasty is a medical procedure that corrects issues with the septum to improve breathing and airflow. Both a cosmetic rhinoplasty and a functional septoplasty can be performed within the same surgery if needed.

Most swelling after a rhinoplasty subsides within a few weeks. However, it is not uncommon to have some residual swelling that lasts between 6 months and a year.

Dermal fillers injected into and around the nose provide a minimally invasive alternative to rhinoplasty for the right candidates. This procedure (called a “nonsurgical rhinoplasty” or “nonsurgical nose job”) involves little to no downtime and is often more affordable than nose surgery. It is also helpful for lifting a drooping tip, disguising bumps, creating the illusion of a narrower bridge, and more. The downside is that the results last about a year, whereas surgical rhinoplasty lasts a lifetime.

Nose surgery performed only for cosmetic purposes is not typically covered by insurance. However, medical rhinoplasties that correct breathing issues by addressing the septum or turbinates typically do qualify for insurance coverage. Dr. Chow will perform an endoscopic exam as part of your consultation to determine whether your procedure may be covered by insurance. Please contact us online or call our office to schedule your consultation.
