I hope you enjoy this video I made about one of the newest (and oldest : )) techniques in rhinoplasty, preservation rhinoplasty. In general, I am a late adopter of new techniques and technology--I'd rather have others figure out the problems and complications, but after starting to use this technique, it has become a huge part of my practice. I hope it is educational!Also, please like and comment on the YouTube video and go ahead and subscribe! : )

We had a beautiful day skiing together yesterday. This amazing woman has been by my side for the past 27 years and she is more beautiful than ever! She has been my support, my adviser, my friend, my boss, my counselor, and is the best wife and mother I can imagine. She had let me practice new injectable techniques and let me try out new skin care regimens. Her feedback and leadership have been vital to the success of our medical spas and skin care company. She is simply amazing. Love you @janiejward !

For those of you who don’t know, I’m a diehard University of Michigan fan. I lived 5 minutes from the stadium while completing my residency and fellowship training at the University of Michigan. One of the greatest speeches I’ve ever heard came from Bo Schembechler in 1983. Bo was the head football coach at Michigan from 1969-1989 compiling a record of 194-48-5. In 21 years at Michigan, his teams won or shared 13 Big Ten Conference titles. With him, it was never about individual accomplishments. It was always about teamwork. 🙌🏼 I have thought about this quote a lot lately, because i have received so many positive comments about our team lately. I am so proud of our amazing team! 💯💯💯 #〽️ichigan #goteam #goblue #gobo #proud #wardmd #formspa #theteam #saltlake #facialplasticsurgery #allabouttheteam (at Form Med Spa)

TRUST is one of the most sacred elements of the physician-patient relationship. When a patient comes to me with a concern, I have an ethical obligation to offer advice that is best for the patient. I also have an ethical obligation to perform the very best possible treatment or procedure for the patient. That is why the training to become a facial plastic surgeon is so lengthy and difficult. This training took 15 years, of which the last six to eight years involved working 80 hours per week. Why is this lengthy training necessary? It all boils down to trust. When a patient comes to see me, they deserve to trust that I will not judge them for their problems. They may have concerns that seem small or trivial to me, but they deserve to know that I will offer the best advice that explains the pros and cons of each treatment option, so that we can determine the treatment that provides the best result. They deserve to trust that I will do my very best to give them the results they want. They deserve to know that all those years of training were spent with me giving my very best effort to learn all that I could to be the best that I could. This is especially true in facial plastic surgery. Our face is our identity and our goal is always to accentuate the natural beauty in each individual. Over done, over tightened, over injected, or over stretched are adjectives that we hope to never hear when describing our patients. When people present to me with concerns about elements of the face they do not like, whether that may be a hump on the nose, droopy eyelids, or simply wanting fuller lips, my obligation is to offer the best advice and treatment without making the patient feel self-conscious or judged in any way. Being a facial plastic surgeon is a privilege and I will be eternally grateful for the trust that my patients place in me every day. . . . #wardmd #facialplasticsurgery #utah #saltlakecity #slc #trust #wednesdaywisdom (at Form Med Spa)

We had a great time seeing Hamilton tonight. I've been in LOVE with the music since I first heard it about 2 years ago, but I had never seen it until tonight. The story is inspiring and the music is fun, motivational, and beautiful. If you haven't heard it, stop what you are doing now and listen! The book by Ron Chernow that it is based on is equally inspiring as is the same author's book on Washington. Read them! . . . #hamilton #inspiring #history #foundingfathers

These photos were taken 14 years apart of the same model, by the same photographer, in the same lighting. It's a beautiful demonstration of how the face loses volume as we age. The use of dermal fillers have allowed us to maintain and restore lost volume. Most people lose more volume in their lips than this model and she has perhaps added some volume in the later photo. If you're noticing facial aging and volume loss that is bothering you, find an experienced injector with extensive knowledge and training in facial anatomy who can help you achieve a more rested and rejuvenated version of yourself!

I happened to see this guy on the trail this morning. His name is David Farrelly and he was my graduate school advisor. In addition to teaching me a lot about physical chemistry, he taught me how to write, how to code, and some math that I should've learned better before working with him! He was so patient with me and I'll forever be grateful for his sage mentoring. . . . #chemistry #wardmd #logancanyon #saltlakecity #slc #logan #utah #plasticsurgery #mentor #usu #usuchemistry #facialplasticsurgery #teacher (at Utah)

This patient was unhappy with her profile, so we performed a rhinoplasty with a chin implant and chin liposuction to give her a more refined profile that better complemented her facial features. This sweet patient loved her results, mission accomplished! • • • #wardmd #facialplastics #facialplasticsurgery #utah #slc #saltlakecity #plasticsurgery
