Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Garrett Griffin

Sourced directly from Dr. Garrett Griffin's social posts and replies.

What is Dr. Griffin's philosophy for rhinoplasty?
Dr. Griffin's core philosophy for rhinoplasty is to create balance, harmony, and a result that feels completely natural to the patient. He aims to make the patient's facial features work beautifully together, enhancing their natural beauty so the nose fits the face and contributes to overall facial harmony and aesthetic appeal.
How does Botox work and what areas can it treat?
Botox relaxes the muscles that cause lines, smoothing areas like the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and the platysma (neck bands). It is the practice's most requested injection treatment.
How do dermal fillers work and what results can be expected?
Dermal fillers primarily add volume to areas where fat is lost due to aging, such as the cheeks, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds (smile lines). They restore lost volume and can be applied conservatively for a natural, refreshed result.
What is Dr. Griffin's overall philosophy for achieving natural results?
Dr. Griffin's top priority is achieving natural results, which are characterized by being subtle, balanced, and customized to an individual's features. The best treatment choice always begins with a conversation about the patient's goals. For procedures like dermal fillers, the objective is to enhance natural beauty and achieve a refreshed look that still feels like the patient's natural self, avoiding an artificial or 'done' appearance. Similarly, for surgical procedures like brow lifts and blepharoplasty, the aim is to restore a more open, refreshed appearance while maintaining natural features. Patients who are unsure which procedure is right for them are encouraged to schedule a consultation.
What is a Hydrafacial and what can I expect?
The Hydrafacial is a medical-grade facial that works in four steps: cleanse, peel, extract, and hydrate. During the treatment, the skin surface is cleared, gently resurfaced, pores are cleaned out, and moisture is replenished with a serum suited to the patient's skin. There is no downtime, and patients can expect thorough treatment with glowing skin immediately after. It is a treatment highly favored by the practice's Advanced Practice Aesthetician, Valerie.
What annual skin treatments does the practice recommend?
The practice recommends one deeper resurfacing treatment annually, such as Halo laser or a peel.
What is BroadBand Light (BBL) treatment and what should I know about it?
BroadBand Light (BBL) is a non-invasive, light-based treatment that uses light energy to target pigment and vessels beneath the surface of the skin. Sessions are quick, typically lasting 2–10 minutes, with no downtime. BBL addresses the appearance of sun spots, redness, and uneven tone. For best results, Dr. Bakeman recommends BBL up to 4 times a year, and some sessions can be layered with other treatments like SkinPen. It's important to note that BBL isn’t always the right fit for melasma; alternatives like a VI Peel are available.
What is a lip lift and how does it differ from other lip enhancement procedures?
A lip lift, lip flip, or dermal fillers can all provide a fuller, more defined smile. A lip lift specifically addresses an elongated philtrum, which is the natural lengthening of the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip that occurs with aging, softening the smile. This in-office procedure is performed under local anesthetic, where a small strip of skin is removed beneath the nose to shorten this distance, revealing more of the upper lip and natural lip line. This restores proportion, bringing back a more youthful ratio between the nose and lip, with minimal scarring and lasting results.
Where is the practice's Lakeville location and what does it offer?
Lakeville is the practice's newest South Metro location, situated right off I-35S, just south of Burnsville, offering easy access. This beautiful space provides an exceptional, personalized experience.

Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.
