: I've read some excellent journal articles on lip aug. by Dr. Zide. I know a woman who had him do a revision on a bad navel from a previous tummy tuck and she thought he was great. His area of expertise is facial surgery.

Dr. Zide is a chin doctor. That's what he does the most (even though I question his skills on chins). I would not go to him for any other procedure. I also have a friend who went to him for a revision nose job, and the results were not satisfactory. She said he claimed to be the chin expert and recommended her elsewhere to have her nose re-done from his mistake.
: : Hi….I’m a “virgin” to this discussion board but certainly well “experienced” when it comes to ps…2 nose jobs (1st by Denenberg in Omaha, Neb. in 1989; revision by Geoffrey Tobias in NYC, April 2000…possibly another minor revision by Tobias next year). I’ve had liposuction 3 times (twice by Dr. Bruce Nadler [“the ps to bodybuilders”] in NYC/L.I. in ‘96 and ‘97, once by Dr. Mark Warfel in NYC in Dec. 99). Also, fat transfer implants to the lips in ’96 (by Nadler) that dissolved within a few months. I’ve had collagen injections for forehead wrinkles in ’97 by a Dr. Brauner in NYC that were useless. Over the last year I’ve had botox treatments (by Warfel) for forehead wrinkles approx. every 3-4 months. This is a great procedure that works! Too bad it isn’t permanent. I’ve also had a consultation for penile augmentation with Dr. Harold Reed in Bal Harbour, Fl. (Miami area) in ’96, although I’m holding back on that one! Geez…I’ve really been around the block, huh? Hahaha.
: : Now to my current project…I’ve made an appt. next month with Dr. Warfel for cymetra injections for the lips. However, after reading this excellent discussion board, I’m deciding to cancel this appt. since it appears cymetra lasts no longer than collagen but costs twice as much (Warfel will charge $700 per CC! Ouch…). I’ve read your very thorough page on lig augmentation. Within the current litany of FDA approved products, would you still recommend collagen injections for temporary augmentation and Gore-tex for permanent (with Alloderm layered over the Gore-tex)?
: : Most importantly, can anyone recommend an experienced lip augmentation ps (esp. Gore-tex) here in NYC? I don’t think I’m comfortable with Warfel doing anything beyond injections when it comes to lips. Sorry for the long post…any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated. If anyone would rather e-mail me for further discussion of my experiences/feedback/etc., you can e-mail me at adlemore@yahoo.com. I plan on becoming a regular patron to this site! THANKS!!!
