The SMAS facelift targets the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System, lifting and tightening the skin by manipulating the SMAS layer, but it can create tension for visible results. On the other hand, the deep plane facelift works below the SMAS layer, providing a more natural, permanent lift without tightening the skin—perfect for a rejuvenated, refreshed look with minimal pull. To figure out which one is best for you, book a consultation with Ransom/MD

Wondering how long you can be safely under anesthesia? The length of time a patient can be under anesthesia depends on several factors, including the type of surgery, the patient’s overall health, and the type of anesthesia used. Generally, most surgical procedures are performed within a safe time for anesthesia, but the anesthesia team continuously monitors vital signs for longer surgeries to ensure your safety throughout the process. If you have concerns or questions about anesthesia for an upcoming procedure, read our blog and contact us to have your questions answered.

When considering a tip rhinoplasty, it’s important to remember that changing the shape, position, or rotation of the nasal tip affects the overall harmony of the nose. Dr. Ransom emphasizes that altering the tip requires careful thought about how it will impact the rest of the nose, especially the bridge. Adjusting the tip can change the height and width of the nose, so it’s essential to ensure everything remains in proportion for a balanced and natural result. A thorough evaluation can help determine the best approach for achieving your desired look.

Check out this stunning before and after of a blepharoplasty procedure! While many people associate eyelid surgery with older age, younger patients can benefit from addressing issues like eyelid drooping, puffiness, or excess skin early on. The results can create a more awake, refreshed, and youthful look, helping to reduce any feeling of tiredness or heaviness around the eyes. By opting for blepharoplasty when these issues are still mild, younger patients can enjoy long-term benefits and maintain a natural, youthful appearance for years to come. If you're considering blepharoplasty to enhance your eye area, schedule a consultation with us today to discuss how we can help you achieve your ideal results!

Dr. Ransom explains that when it comes to addressing upper eyelid heaviness, the solution depends on the underlying cause. An upper eyelid lift is typically used to remove excess skin from the eyelid itself, while a brow lift works to reposition the forehead tissue that may be weighing down the eyelid. If you’re unsure whether an eyelid lift or brow lift is right for you, a consultation with a skilled provider can help determine the best course of action. Contact us today to schedule your consultation and find the solution that works best for you!

Early on in their journey, many patients overlook an important point about their surgical procedures: while they’re designed to create lasting, meaningful changes, no surgery can halt the natural process of aging. Even after a procedure like a facelift or eyelid surgery, the body will continue to age over time. This doesn’t mean that the surgery wasn’t successful—it simply means that aging is an ongoing process, and maintaining a youthful look often requires occasional touch-ups or maintenance procedures down the line. The goal is always to give patients a long-term, natural enhancement that keeps them confident through the years. To learn more about what you expect long-term, watch our YouTube channel and schedule a consultation.

"I came for a face lift. I never had any plastic surgery in my life and didn't really know what to expect, but my close friend had gone to dr Ransom before and had amazing results. I asked for specific things. Doctor Ransom listened and gave optimal results. My jawline is redefined and I have smoother and more contoured appearance. It looks very natural. People give me complements but they can't figure out what happened and ask me if I wear something different or had a new haircut. It definitely enhances my self confidence.

Throughout the whole process Patricia Miranda answered all my questions and gave me a lot of support. The whole team was ready to help at any time when the need would arise.
Great doctor, real expert at his craft, wonderful team, beautiful office.
I am grateful for the whole experience but mostly for my look."

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words! We’re truly honored that you entrusted Dr. Ransom and our team with such an important step in your journey. It’s incredibly rewarding to hear that you’re not only thrilled with your results but also feeling more confident and radiant. We’re especially glad you felt supported and cared for every step of the way—the entire team are always here for you. Your trust means the world to us, and we’re so grateful to have been part of your transformation.

While the facelift is often marketed as a quick, less invasive option, it's actually only suitable for a very specific group—typically younger patients with early signs of aging limited to the cheeks and jowls, and no visible aging in the neck. Dr. Ransom emphasizes that many people who inquire about mini facelifts aren’t ideal candidates, and offering that procedure without careful evaluation could lead to underwhelming results. His thoughtful, personalized approach ensures that each patient receives the treatment that truly fits their anatomy and goals—watch us on YouTube to learn more.
