"I feel beautiful again.”

Hearing this never gets old.
Only 2 weeks out from her CURRENT Lift, lip lift, brow lift, and full face fat grafting, and she’s getting compliments from friends, and says she feels like a million dollars. Even more meaningful, she told her daughter she finally feels like herself again.

Her scars are already blending beautifully, and her lips look like they used to, just naturally restored, not overdone.

That’s the goal of the CURRENT Lift: restoration, not change. Natural, refreshed, and confidently you.

A softer, lifted, more refreshed version of her.

Six days post op and already out and about.

After a temporal brow lift, lip lift, fat grafting, and a full deep plane face and neck lift, she’s feeling wonderful with minimal bruising and essentially no pain. One pain pill the first night and nothing since.

Stitches are already out, the jawline and neck are taking shape, and the lip lift incision is settling beautifully into a natural look. Healing like this at not even one week is always exciting to see.

The early recovery phase is just the beginning. I cannot wait to see how everything continues to soften and refine over the next few weeks.

Three days after her CURRENT Lift, temporal brow lift, and lip lift and this is typically the peak of swelling. Even at this stage, she is feeling comfortable, moving around, and already loving her results.

Minimal bruising, well hidden brow incisions, and a beautiful new lip shape starting to settle in. The under-eye puffiness you see here is expected and mostly related to brow swelling, which improves steadily over the next couple of weeks.
Recovery is a process, but this moment matters because it shows patients what “normal” healing really looks like.

Day 3 is the hardest part. It only gets better from here.

Filler vs fat grafting. Which is better? The answer is they do different things.

Hyaluronic acid filler works best in the dermis to soften fine lines and restore hydration, especially around the lips and perioral area. It was never designed to replace facial fat or rebuild facial structure.

Fat grafting restores volume lost with aging by replacing your own natural fat pads. It helps soften the face, improve skin quality, and support structural balance, often alongside a deep plane facelift for more natural, lasting rejuvenation.

Neither fat nor filler is “better.” The key is using the right tool for the right tissue.

Incision placement is one of the most important and most overlooked parts of facelift surgery.

In a CURRENT Lift, every incision is carefully designed to follow natural contours and hide within existing facial structures. Dr. Novis personally closes all incisions, meticulously aligning the wound edges to support thin, well healed scars that fade over time.

Around the ear, incisions are placed to blend into the natural anatomy of the face. For the temporal brow lift, the incision is positioned within the hair without trimming follicles, helping preserve hair growth and allowing the scar to heal discreetly.

A natural result is not just about lifting the deeper tissues. It also depends on thoughtful incision placement and precise closure technique.

Less than 24 hours after her CURRENT Lift and already seeing that beautiful jawline.

This patient had a temporal brow lift, lip lift, fat grafting, and a full deep plane facelift and neck lift.

She had nearly 4 cm of skin in the lower face held down by tight facial ligaments. Once those ligaments were released, everything lifted naturally and the excess skin could be removed.

Minimal pain. Early swelling. Big structural change.

This is why lifting the foundation of the face matters. Not filling. Not tightening skin alone. Repositioning what has descended over time.

We cannot wait to watch her healing and results continue to unfold.

A closer look at facelift planning before surgery even begins.

Here, you’re seeing the surgical roadmap for a CURRENT Lift, a deep plane facelift and neck lift designed entirely around anatomy, precision, and long-term natural results (performed under local anesthesia)

The markup is where outcomes are decided. Incision placement that allows hair to grow through the scar. Deep plane entry points chosen to improve contour and tissue coverage. Release of key facial ligaments to restore lift without tension.

Defined jawlines. Restored confidence. Real results.

This video highlights what happens when facial structure is lifted back to where it belongs. With the CURRENT Lift, the jawline is refined, jowls are corrected, and the neck is naturally contoured without looking pulled or overdone.

A deep plane facelift and neck lift reposition descended tissue instead of filling or tightening the surface, creating results that look refreshed, natural, and lasting.

One of the biggest fears patients have before surgery is recovery.

Hearing from someone who has just been through it can make all the difference.

Her advice:
Sleep support matters. A pillow under the knees and a soft neck pillow can make back-sleeping much easier. Listen to your body. Rest when you need to.

Education and preparation make recovery smoother and less intimidating.
