My beautiful patient who flew to see me from out of state— before, during, and after her facelift journey
My approach to facial rejuvenation is comprehensive, anatomical, and quietly precise, combining a midface lift, lower facelift, and necklift to restore structural harmony rather than simply tighten skin. In the midface, I focus on true elevation of descended soft tissue and support of the malar contour to reestablish a youthful, rested shape without distortion or “pulled” vectors. In the lower face and neck, my goal is a clean, elegant jawline with natural softness, using meticulous dissection, deep-plane support where appropriate, and thoughtful platysmal management to create definition that still looks like the patient. I often refine the result with erbium laser resurfacing to improve texture, fine lines, and photodamage with controlled precision and a balanced recovery profile. Finally, autologous fat grafting is used as the artistry layer, restoring volume where it has quietly disappeared and blending transitions in the cheeks, temples, and perioral region, always with micro-droplet placement and restraint. The end point is never an “operated” look, but a face that reads refreshed, cohesive, and beautifully intact.
