Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Chase Lay

Sourced directly from Dr. Chase Lay's social posts and replies.

What are common side effects of nose filler?
Nose filler can cause swelling, redness, and possible bruising. Bruising may last one to three weeks, but most people experience only minor bruising lasting a few days to a week.

What is Dr. Lay's advice for post-operative scar care?
Dr. Lay recommends letting scars heal on their own in the first months after surgery. He advises patients to avoid alcohol, sun, and inflammatory foods, eat a clean diet, and avoid shellfish and seafood for a few months.

What are the benefits of PDO thread lifts for the nose?
PDO thread lifts can elevate the nasal tip, narrow the base, and show more of the bridge, resulting in immediate elevation and projection of the nasal tip. The threads are inserted under the skin to create structure and stimulate collagen production, providing a more defined appearance. Results are semi-permanent, lasting about 1–2 years, and the procedure has minimal downtime.

Many express feeling comfortable and welcomed by the staff, particularly Nurse Emily. Reviews mention successful outcomes with CoolSculpting and other treatments, with patients noticing significant improvements in their appearance and skin texture.
What areas of care does Dr. Chase Lay cater to?
Dr. Lay specializes in facial plastic surgery and medical spa procedures. His areas of expertise include Asian eyelid surgery, ptosis repair, blepharoplasty, brow lifts, facial fat transfer, non-surgical facial rejuvenation (injectables, thread lifts, nonsurgical nose jobs), CoolSculpting, Emsculpt, HydraFacials, IV therapy, and NAD+/BPC157 treatments. Dr. Lay has 15 years of experience performing Asian eyelid surgery and other blepharoplasty types, noting that scarring is rarely the main concern in problematic cases, as eyelids tend to heal well, though scars are rarely perfect and redness may linger longer in fair-skinned individuals. He advises against Plasma Pen treatments due to the risk of hyperpigmentation and prefers cold techniques or scalpel and suture for less visible scars.
