Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. 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.

Total received (2024)

$1,019

Payments

20

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Johnson C. Lee received $1,019 across 20 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was PolyNovo North America LLC.

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Johnson C. Lee

Sourced directly from Dr. Johnson C. Lee's social posts and replies.

What are common complications after rhinoplasty and their causes?
A common reason for the tip of the nose struggling after rhinoplasty is a loss of blood flow, potentially caused by over-dissection of tissue, direct injury from surgical instruments, or secondary issues like bacterial infection. While serious, these complications can heal, though it may take a year or more for the body to restore blood supply.

What should I expect from lower eyelid surgery, including candidacy, procedure, and recovery?
Lower eyelid surgery is ideal for young patients with hereditary eye bags and tight skin, and can be performed quickly in the office while awake. When the incision is made inside the eyelid, there are no external scars. Recovery involves some bruising and swelling at 12 days, reducing to minimal puffiness by two weeks. Patients can wear full makeup once internal incisions heal. Bruising and swelling resolve by one month, at which point most others won't notice surgery, though patients might feel slight puffiness. By three months, all puffiness is gone, and results are dramatic with minimal downtime.

What are the risks and potential complications of CoolSculpting?
While CoolSculpting is a proven technique for fat reduction, a very small percentage of patients (less than one in 10,000) can experience paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH), where fat in the treated area actually increases and gets larger instead of disappearing. This unwanted side effect can be treated with traditional liposuction to remove the excess fat directly.
Source →
What plastic surgery procedures can achieve a 'transformed' or 'sculpted' look?
Achieving a significantly transformed look can involve procedures such as jaw implants, various facial fillers, and body contouring techniques like abdominal etching with liposuction.

What are potential complications of Botox injections for smile correction, and how are they treated?
While DAO injections typically lift mouth corners for a slight smile, unintended asymmetry can occur if the DLI is injected too centrally, leading to a crooked smile. Recovery from such nerve-related issues can take longer (3-4 months for initial improvement, with full recovery likely if improvement is seen early), as nerves heal slowly. A treatment option is to inject a small amount of Botox into the unaffected side to temporarily paralyze it, aiming for a more symmetric smile during healing. Patients typically won't notice the temporary asymmetry or corrective treatment during this period.

What treatments does Dr. Lee recommend for thinning hair and post-hair transplant care?
Dr. Lee encourages the use of minoxidil, finasteride, and rosemary oil for thinning hair and in his hair transplant patients. Rosemary oil, containing carnosic acid, increases blood supply and cell turnover for a healthier scalp. Minoxidil also boosts blood supply, and is available in a convenient pill form. Finasteride improves blood flow by altering scalp hormones, addressing male pattern baldness often linked to decreased blood supply.

What are the signs of excessive or migrated facial filler, and can fillers be reversed?
Signs of excessive or migrated filler can include smooth, thick, or shiny lips with a lost cupid's bow, or a long crease beneath the orbicularis muscle from cheek/lower eyelid filler. Excessive cheek filler can create an abrupt transition from muscle to a noticeable lump, extending tear trough lines into malar mounds or festoons, resulting in a puffy, triangulated appearance. The good news is that hyaluronic acid fillers can always be dissolved quickly with an enzyme, with patients typically returning to their normal appearance within two weeks.
