    Dr. Motykie Patient Review: Revision Rhinoplasty, Chin Implant, Neck Lift, Buccal Fat Removal – Los Angeles, CA

    Tag Archives: Dr. Motykie

    “I’m a 32 years old male who had 2 previous Rhinoplasties one done in 1999 and the other 2001. My first Rhino was horrible all I needed was hump and tip reduction the surgeon ruined my nose he made it very saddle wide piggy nose. I Had to wait year and half so I can fix it. My second rhinoplasty was little better but still it was crooked, concave short feminine nose. I want it more masculine straight, higher, longer and make the tip more downward. So in 2014 I had online consultation with Dr. Motykie and at the time I gained a lot of weight and I always hated my chubby cheeks and double chin and I asked for neck lift and buccal fat removal. After seeing my photos he suggested to add chin implant to balance my profile. So we finalized that I would do the 4 procedures. I did my surgery on January 14 2015, and the results were amazing.

    When I met him in real for my consultation the day before surgery, he was very confident and we discussed what do I need in each procedure and he told me what would look best on me. He rushed a little bit during the consultation and I felt nervous but he was very confident and told me before surgery we will have another meeting to make sure everything is on track. During the day of the surgery we discussed everything in details. The 4 procedures took around 2 and half hours to 3 hours, I was worried after I woke up because it was very short time and I was afraid from the results. Here is my review for each procedure.

    Buccal fat, First I was very impressed of how my cheeks are more sculpted from second day which there were lots of bruising. After one month now my cheeks looks amazing very sculpted nice cheeks made huge difference. The recovery was easy, third day after surgery I was brushing my teeth but regarding eating it took me like 4 days to eat normally, first few days I couldn’t open my mouth normally because I had buccal fat, chin implant and neck lift so it was hard to chew the food.

    The necklift looks very nice contoured jaw line and no fat under my chin almost 95% of the fat is gone but it’s still some lumps but they told me it will be better by time. So I’m waiting to see final results in few months but from now it looks 95% perfect.

    My chin implant was very swollen the first week and I wasn’t very comfortable because of the stiffness I had crooked smile and I couldn’t pronounce the letter S I couldn’t talk properly. I had crooked lips and smile this stayed for like 3 weeks, week 4 for its like 95% natural. I talk normally now and swelling is much better than before but I will see final results in few months but from now it looks very natural and it fits my face very well, it made a difference in both frontal and profile view.

    My nose, the results are very good. High straight nose like I requested, I also wanted my radix to be little higher than before he made it for me, the nose is little longer and tip is little down but not the degree that I wanted but still it’s too early to judge because I’m just one month post-op and there is little supratip depression on my right side but it’s still lots of swelling so I will see in few months if its swelling or not. But the results overall is amazing.

    Overall Dr. Motykie and his staff are very professional and friendly Specially Jade and Menal both are amazing and always reply to my emails or calls after my surgery to ask any additional questions regarding post opt care. And the results are very good regarding the procedures I had I will defiantly recommend him hes’s worth it.” –  ahmedrs

    Photo of Gigi B.“Dr. Motykie is gifted.  He is professional, listens, and despite being young and on TV he really is an amazingly gifted surgeon.  He has done two different surgical procedures on me-one was a fix on a botched job from 6 years ago and another cosmetic procedure on my face.  He knows what he is doing.

    I do not know of anyone who can hold a candle to Dr. Motykie.  I hope to continue my “maintenance” for years to come with this excellent surgeon.  Don’t go anywhere else-this is the place for excellent work and service.” – Gigi B.

    botox injectionDr. Gary Motykie is an experienced plastic surgeon providing state of the art procedures such as breast augmentation and tummy tuck. Dr. Motykie is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding areas can receive treatment for cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical procedures.

    Patients who are looking for non-surgical treatments such as Botox have some outstanding news from the FDA. The FDA has finally approved Botox® for the cosmetic treatment of crow’s feet around the eyes. As a cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Motykie provides Botox treatment to his patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood and Los Angeles, if they are keen to reduce frown lines or crow’s feet from the face without undergoing a facelift surgery.

    Why Choose Botox?

    People that are unhappy with signs of aging on their face, but are either unable or unwilling to go for a surgery, may choose Botox as an effective non-surgical alternative. The treatment involves almost no downtime, no general anesthesia and no risks or complications that are typically associated with a surgery. Results are visible almost immediately. Busy working people tend to choose Botox because it does not require them to alter their work schedule for even a day.

    Botox is made of botulinum neurotoxin, which is one of the most powerful biological agents known to man. It is used in extremely diluted forms, in approved doses, to treat several medical as well as cosmetic problems, as approved by the FDA. With the FDA approval for treatment of crow’s feet, Botox can now be used to reduce wrinkles around the corners of the eyes. It can help make the eyes appear rejuvenated and rested.

    What are Crow’s Feet?

    Clinically known as lateral canthal lines, the crow’s feet refers to the fine lines that emanate outside of frown lines from the far corners of the eyes. When a person is smiling, the crow’s feet become more conspicuous because the action of smiling activates the underlying muscles. As the muscles contract under the skin, the folds appear in the skin naturally. When the action of smiling is repeated frequently over a period of time, the skin folds become permanent.

    Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and other places who are not inclined in favor of cosmetic surgery, may consider Botox as an effective treatment for frown lines and crow’s feet. Botox medication is directly injected into the targeted muscle tissue that needs to be relaxed. The toxin works instantly to block communication between the muscle and the nerve, sending the muscle into a temporary state of paralysis. This makes the skin relaxed and smooth, and the wrinkle does not appear when a person smiles.

    Approval from FDA

    While announcing the formal approval for Botox treatment for crow’s feet, the FDA has stated that Botox is an effective temporary treatment to help minimize wrinkles and lines that form near aging eyes, which are known as crow’s feet. In 2002, the FDA has given its first approval to Botox for cosmetic treatment of frown lines.

    Prior to that, Botox use was allowed only for medication treatment of conditions such as eyelid spasms, underarm perspiration and severe migraines. Plastic surgeons have been providing Botox treatment as an effective alternative for several years to patients who may not agree to the surgery route.

    Allergan Study

    Allergan, Inc., Irvine, California based manufacturer of Botox has received the approval from FDA for treatment of crow’s feet only after it successfully showed the results of a study conducted to assess the impact of the treatment. The study included two groups of adult participants, out of which one group of 833 participants was randomly chosen to receive a placebo Botox injection.

    The group that was administered Botox treatment showed a substantial reduction in crow’s feet. The treatment is now approved by the FDA, but an experienced cosmetic surgeon will always advise the patient to keep realistic expectations from the outcome and remember that the results of Botox may last only for about three to six months. The treatment can, however, be repeated to prolong the results.

    FDA Caution

    FDA includes a clear warning on Botox labels, which says that the toxin might spread to other areas of the body, which can result in symptoms similar to botulism. However, the FDA also notes that when Botox treatment is delivered in controlled doses, it has never resulted in a confirmed serious case of botulism. It can be inferred from the FDA warning that Botox treatment should be performed by a qualified expert in cosmetic surgery or only by a certified Botox provider.

    Dr. Gary Motykie Patient Reviews:

    Dr. Gary Motykie performed 7 different procedures on me!

    It’s important to state how rare it is to find a surgeon who is expert in one procedure let alone (from my experience) 7 different procedures! Dr Motykie performed for me Revision rhinoplasty, Revision breast augmentation, Revision Benelli lift, face lift, neck lift, lip lift (I needed a lot of lifting!) and facial fat grafting (under eyes and lips). He is truly an extremely talented surgeon and artist (also a very important trait for a PS). Revision surgeries are very difficult procedures & they require the skills of an expert surgeon with an artistic eye. Dr Motykie gave me the most amazing perfect nose. My boyfriend kisses it several times a day and says how beautiful I am. I healed much more quickly than my previous surgeries which is incredible given this was my third nose job and the other work I had done at the same time! He uses special techniques to help with faster healing. He also did a facelift, neck lift, lip lift, & fat grafting. Everything looks so natural; I don’t have to use fillers anymore! He also performed revision BA; they look so young and amazing now! With my revision Benelli lift one suture didn’t hold, so one areola is larger than the other. This is VERY rare, which he is fixing for free next month. This type of superior business practice and dedication to achieving the best result and happiness for his patients is evidence of how much he really cares about his patients and his work and why you want Dr Motykie to be your surgeon. I had so many procedures at once and achieved amazing results, with only a minor extremely rare suture not holding. I would never trust anyone other than Dr Motykie. He is patient, spends lot of time listening to you and talking through all procedures and options. His staff are so nice and helpful as well; their warmth and kindness are comforting as you go through this journey. I’ve used the Motykie MedSpa as well and the staff is top notch! I plan to have them perform Laser skin resurfacing when I go in for my suture fix next month.

    Very Professional 

    I first saw this provider on a tv show called Dr 90210 a few years back, and then ran across him again while researching doctor’s now.. During my consultaion Dr, Motykie was very professional and answered all my questions honestly, I also liked the fact that he didnt seem to rush through my consultation or push me into this surgery. And no the fact that Dr Motykie was on t.v had nothing to do with my decision to have him do my surgery 🙂 Ovedall my experience has been good and I cant wait to see my final results!

    Dr. Motykie is amazing!

    Dr. Motykie is amazing, and so is his work! During my consultations with him, he was very cognizant about making sure all my questions and concerns were answered. I never got the feeling that he was too busy to spend extra time with me. The staff was great and punctual, I never had to worry about anything and when you’re already nervous about surgery to begin with, there’s nothing you want more than to feel like you’re being taken care of. During my recovery, I followed other people’s blogs who documented their tummy tuck healing process and procedures with other doctors and to be honest, I seemed to be healing at a much quicker rate than them and with less scaring too — this sealed the deal for me that I picked the right doctor. I hope this helps anyone looking for a good surgeon in the LA area, feel free to email me directly with any questions about liposuction or tummy tuck.

    women in businessDr. Gary Motykie is a board certified plastic surgeon for advanced procedures such as breast augmentation and tummy tuck. Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Los Angeles may consult with Dr. Motykie for the latest cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical treatments to enhance their appearance.

    Cosmetic Enhancement and Job Competitiveness

    A majority of patients are looking for a suitable cosmetic surgeon to improve their aesthetics in order to satisfy their inherent desire to look youthful and attractive. However, there seems to be a separate segment of women patients who are interested in plastic surgery and other cosmetic treatments primarily with an aim to maintain or improve their competitiveness at the workplace.

    A number of working women in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles and other places appear to be driven by a perception that if the signs of aging become too conspicuous and make them look old or tired, it may adversely impact their career prospects. Women who seriously believe in this perception may feel the pressure to maintain eye catching looks and a youthful appearance at the place of work just to be able to compete with their younger counterparts.

    Most of these women are keen to look vibrant and refreshed, but they may not really be looking for extensive ‘plastic’ jobs that could alter their appearance drastically or take several years off their face and body. Even if they continue to look their real age, they are happy with it – as long as they look healthy and vibrant for their age. Women in their 40s and 50s seem to be more inclined towards cosmetic surgery and other procedures to avoid being perceived as “too old” for certain jobs or assignments at the workplace.

    Minimally Invasive Treatments

    Technological advancements and FDA approvals for various non-invasive and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures have led to a growing popularity of these treatments. Some working women may choose these procedures over the option of surgery because of some of the key benefits that these treatments offer.

    Many women in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Los Angeles seem to be opting for treatments such as Botox, cosmetic facial fillers, chemical peels, fat freezing techniques such as CoolSculpting, laser based cosmetic enhancements and even ultrasound and radio frequency based treatments.

    From a busy working woman’s perspective, some of the key benefits of non-surgical treatments are as follows:

    • Less dramatic and more natural looking results.
    • Gradual appearance of results rather than sudden changes.
    • No or little downtime involved.
    • Avoidance of risks and complications typically associated with a surgery.
    • No general anesthesia and treatment on an outpatient basis.

    Surgical Treatments for Working Women

    Working women who are in their middle age and looking to ‘freeze’ their appearance of aging signs, if not ‘reverse’ the signs, may opt for surgical procedures such as breast augmentation and tummy tuck with a reputed plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, or other places. Many of the women in this age group may not be looking for extensive treatment, and may just opt for a partial tummy tuck or partial facelift.

    Some women may, in fact, request the cosmetic surgeon to keep their facial wrinkles, and just soften their impression. Their goal is to look natural and look their age, but somehow prolong their current appearance for a few more years and prevent very conspicuous signs of aging from setting in. While there is no evidence to suggest that employers may be discriminating on the basis of looks, but the feedback from many working women indicates their belief that good looks can somehow help them improve or maintain their job competitiveness.

    Job Retention in a Slow Economy

    An interesting phenomenon appears to emerge during the times of economic slowdown. During such periods when job uncertainty becomes higher, layoffs are more frequent and new jobs are harder to come by, working women seem to pay more attention to their appearance to ensure they remain job competitive. A survey of 756 women compiled by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) in 2009 indicated that a significant number of working women think that plastic surgery and other cosmetic techniques can increase their chances of success in their jobs.

    As many as 73 percent of the respondents in the ASPS survey stated that when the economic conditions are more difficult, looks can play a role in finding a job, receiving a promotion or bringing new business for the employer. Four in five respondents said that they believe a cosmetic treatment can help improve their confidence levels, which is a competitive strength at the workplace.

    The Marie Show featured a talk on this subject by Dr. Gary Motykie, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Beverly Hills, California!

    Dr. Gary Motykie offers alternative advice before going under the knife for a nip and tuck. The experienced Beverly Hills plastic surgeon stresses the importance of eating nutritious foods versus counting calories. He speaks about the poor status of the standard American diet (S.A.D.) because you’re getting too many toxins and preservatives. Instead, he promotes juicing to cleanse the body. Prior to surgery, you should be in good health because procedures put a lot of stress on your body. In lieu of liposuction, Dr. Gary explains a non-invasive method of freezing your fat.

    Check out the notes from the show on how to look and feel younger, from licensed plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, Dr. Gary Motykie:

    Antioxidant Diet Foods

    • Blueberries/blackberries/raspberries
    • Garbanzo beans/White Beans/Kidney Beans
    • Artichokes
    • Prunes

    Antioxidant Supplements

    • Milk Thistle Extract: Used for thousands of years to improve health.
    • Bacopa Extract: A serious free-radical scavenger.
    • Ashwagandha: Supports a healthy immune system.
    • Turmeric Extract: Powerful contributor
    • Green Tea Extract: Contains important antioxidants.
    • Protandim with Nrf2
      1. Nrf2 fights oxidative stress.
      2. Nrf2 helps the body regulate at peak efficiency.
      3. Nrf2, a protein messenger that binds itself to DNA, is the master regulator of the body’s aging process and is critical in the fight against oxidative stress.
      4. Nrf2 communicates with cells, instructing them to do what they’re already designed to do. When activated, Nrf2 enters the nucleus of a cell and up-regulates “survival genes,” genes that enable cells to survive in the face of stress from free radicals and other oxidants, and down-regulates other genes that promote inflammation and fibrosis to help the body function at an optimal level.

    Cosmetic Treatment

    The brief video below provides an animation of 3DEEP RF technology in action.  For more details on this unique, proprietary technology for effective aesthetic treatments, click here.

    3DEEP RF Technology – Anchored in Science

    EndyMed’s proprietary 3DEEP™ technology is a multi-source, phase-controlled radio frequency energy that is state-of-the-art, safe and effective. 3DEEP represents the latest generation in the evolution of RF-based professional skin treatment devices.

    • 3DEEP uses multiple RF sources and sophisticated software to effectively control the phase of the energy flowing between the handpiece electrodes. This energy treatment method enables the delivery of controlled heat deep into the skin, while preserving the overlying epidermis. 3DEEP eliminates concerns about any potential side effects and the need for cooling.
    • 3DEEP™ uniquely controls the power and depth of the RF energy delivered to the skin, different to the other RF products on the market today.
    • 3DEEP RF – Penetrates Deeply Into Skin Compared to Bipolar or Monopolar RF
    • Monopolar / Unipolar RF- Technology in which the RF energy flows uncontrolled through the body. This can be painful for the patient and requires intense skin cooling during the procedure.
    • Bipolar and X-polar RF – Technology in which the RF flows superficially and is less efficient. It requires cooling to protect the skin.
    • 3DEEP® RF – Technology which results in deep, controlled and targeted energy flow with minimal energy flow on the skin’s surface. No cooling is needed.
    • 3DEEP RF – Tangible Benefits, Visible Results

    3DEEP™ can be employed for multiple medical and aesthetic applications, including micro-ablation, non-ablative skin rejuvenation, skin tightening, acne scar treatment and body contouring.  3DEEP RF technology has the following benefits:

    • Enables focused & contained deep energy delivery
    • Eliminates the need for active cooling by minimizing the energy flow on the skin’s surface
    • Delivers totally safe and minimally painless or completely painless treatments
    • Enables personalized parameters

    Say Goodbye to Stubborn Fat.

    It’s called stubborn fat for a reason: no matter how much you eat healthy and exercise, it’s virtually impossible to lose those annoying muffin tops, love handles, and belly pooch. You’re left with two options: live with them or think surgery. Neither is cool by us. That’s exactly why we developed CoolSculpting. Only CoolSculpting targets fat cells alone, eliminating them in an easy, non-intrusive fashion that exercise and diet can’t achieve as quickly or as effectively.

    The Cool Solution is the More Natural Solution.

    Procedures that use laser, sonic waves and even surgery to remove fat can actually destroy other tissue in the process by burning, shattering or extracting non-fat cells. This requires downtime for your body to heal. Totally uncool. Fortunately, CoolSculpting doesn’t burn, shatter or extract any cells. Developed by Harvard scientists, our unique, FDA-cleared, patented procedure uses a targeted cooling process that kills the fat cells underneath the skin, literally freezing them to the point of elimination. Only fat cells are frozen. Your healthy skin cells remain, well, healthy. No knives. No suction hoses. No needles. No scars. Once crystallized, the fat cells die and are naturally eliminated from your body. In a few months, boom: say hello to a new you.

    Breast Augmentation Beverly HillsWhat is Breast Augmentation?

    Breast augmentation is an effective way to enhance breast size in case a woman is unhappy with the size of her breasts. Smaller breasts may occur due to genetic factors, or in some cases a woman may lose breast volume following a pregnancy, breastfeeding, or major weight loss. In all such cases, placement of artificial implants underneath the breast tissue can enhance the size of breasts as desired.

    How is it performed?

    Breast implant procedure is performed usually under general anesthesia. The procedure begins with the surgeon making an incision at a pre-determined location, which could be the breast fold, the belly button, the armpit, or the areola. Through the incision, the surgeon will place the silicone or saline breast implant. The placement can be done under the chest muscle or below the breast tissue.

    The choice of implant, the location of the incision and the placement of implant will be decided prior to the surgery during a consultation between the patient and the surgeon. A surgeon who is experienced in breast implant plastic surgery will be able to create the most appropriate treatment plan to match the needs of the patient.

    Implant Types

    FDA has approved two types of breast implants, which include silicone gel based implants and saline solution based implants. The outer shell for both types of implants is made of silicone elastomer, which is a highly biocompatible material. Choice between silicone and saline implants can be made by the patient.

    A surgeon will usually be able to provide both saline and silicone implant options. However, some surgeons may have a preference for either silicone or saline implants, based on their personal experience. In reality, both silicone and saline implants have their own perceived advantages and disadvantages. Both implant types are accepted widely among breast augmentation patients.

    Pre-op Consultation

    The patient should be candid during pre-op consultations and explain her needs and aspirations about breast implants to the surgeon very clearly. This will help the plastic surgeon to recommend the most appropriate implant type and size. The surgeon will also evaluate the patient’s medical condition, family history, and anatomical features to give appropriate advice.

    Discreet photographs will be taken during the pre-op visit to maintain a medical record, and will also be helpful at the time of surgery. The pre-op breast exam will include evaluation of the nipple position and breast mound, shape of the chest wall and assessment of any breast disproportion.

    Breast Implant Placement

    The breast implant pocket can be placed in three ways:

    • Above the chest muscle and below the breast mound
    • Below the chest muscle
    • Partly below the chest muscle and partly below the breast mound

    Different surgeons may have different opinions regarding the ideal placement of implant pocket. However, any preference among these methods has not been determined scientifically till date. In some cases, the patient’s breast anatomy may prompt the cosmetic surgeon to decide on a particular placement method.

    Incision Sites

    Location of the incision for breast enhancement plastic surgery may be chose by the surgeons as per their expertise and past experience with a particular implant placement approach. The incision is usually about an inch in length, but it may be slightly longer in case of silicone implants. Common locations for the incision include the following:

    •       Under the armpit
    •       Below the areola
    •       Within the breast fold
    •       Through the belly button

    In each of these cases, the goal is to place the implants with minimum difficulty and achieving inconspicuous scarring.

    Procedure

    Once the incision has been made in the pre-decided location, a breast pocket is created in the targeted position. This is followed by the insertion of an implant sizer in the pocket, which is positioned behind the nipple. The goal is to minimize the tissue invasion so that the patient has quicker recovery and low risk of complications.

    When the final shape and size of the implants is determined, the sizers are removed and replaced with permanent breast implants. Once the cosmetic surgery procedure is completed, the incisions will be closed, and compression wraps will be placed on the breasts.

    About ‘The Healing Curve’

    Dr. Gary Motykie, a board certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, founded The Healing Curve nonprofit in 2008 to support women who have fought breast cancer successfully but are left with scars and breast tissue loss resulting from their mastectomy. Dr. Motykie was inspired to launch The Healing Curve when he received an overwhelming response to the episodes featuring him on E! Entertainment’s hit show Dr. 90210 where he highlighted breast reconstruction for breast cancer survivors. Today, The Healing Curve provides funding and support for surgeries that may be necessary to correct deformities arising out of cancer, trauma, birth defects, or a previous unsuccessful surgery.

    About Dr. Gary Motykie

    Dr. Gary Motykie is the founder, president and chairman of the board of The Healing Curve. He believes that the real art of plastic surgery is discovered in giving patients back the hope that they had been robbed off due to a physical deformity. Dr. Motykie says: “I initially performed the first breasts cancer surgeries on Dr 90210 because I felt that people needed to see what hope and joy plastic surgery is capable of bringing to patients.”

    Following the show, Dr. Motykie was quick to realize that insurance providers often did not cover secondary surgeries addressing the aesthetic needs of cancer survivors, trauma victims and war veterans. This led to establishment of The Healing Curve, which now has a primary mission to provide reconstructive surgery to patients with physical deformities.

    Regular physical exercise and balanced diet are the most natural ways to achieve a toned, well-proportioned body. However, many people suffer from sagging skin, stubborn fat deposits and uneven body contours which may not respond to diet or exercise. Such conditions may occur due to genetic factors, aging, sun exposure, pregnancy, breastfeeding or major weight loss or gain.

    Various body contouring procedures are available to improve these conditions surgically. As an experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Motykie recommends the most suitable procedure or combination of procedures to suit the needs of a patient.

    Non-Surgical Procedures and Spa Services

    In some cases, the patient may not need a surgical treatment, or may be keen to opt for non-surgical alternatives. Dr. Motykie not only provides services as a cosmetic surgeon, but also looks after the concerns of such patients who need effective non-surgical solutions. These services are provided through his facility called Motykie Med Spa. Key procedures available at the facility include the following:

    • Botox
    • Juvederm
    • Laser Hair Removal
    • Restylane
    • Skin and Wrinkle Treatment

    Botox is one of the widely popular non-surgical treatments to reduce the appearance of lines and minor wrinkles on the face. This minimally invasive technique involves the use of thin needles through which the botulinum toxin is injected directly into the wrinkled muscle. The chemical relaxes the muscle, causing the wrinkle to disappear.

    The treatment is effective in reducing frown lines, furrows on the forehead, crow’s feet, and skin bands on the neck. The procedure can be performed in less than hour, and involves almost no downtime. Dermal fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane are also highly effective injectable treatments to reduce facial wrinkles. Results with these treatments may last for up to a year.
