My patient came in with something we see often; aging that had touched virtually every part of her face at once. The brows, the upper and lower eyelids, the jawline, the neck, and the upper lip. Rather than addressing these in isolation, the goal was to create one cohesive, harmonious result.

Here's what we did and why:

Her upper eyelid hooding was significant, but the root cause wasn't entirely the eyelid itself, a lot of it came from brow descent. When the brows drop, they push down on the upper eyelids and create that heavy, tired appearance. Treating the eyelid alone without addressing the brow would have been an incomplete solution. So, we performed an endoscopic temporal brow lift to restore the brow position, followed by a conservative upper blepharoplasty to address the remaining excess skin.

We also performed a lower blepharoplasty to remove the fat pads that had been bulging under the eyes, which quietly ages the face more than most people realize.

For the lower face and neck, a deep plane face and neck lift restored the jawline definition and eliminated the jowling and obliqueness in her profile that had softened her neck angle over time.

And finally, the upper lip lift. A subtle procedure, but in her case it was the detail that tied everything together. It restored the natural proportion between the nose and lip, added a hint of fullness, and contributed to an overall sense of harmony across the entire face.

Every face tells a different story. If you've been noticing changes and wondering where to start, a consultation is the first step.

46 years old, three weeks out from surgery, and already looking like this! ✨

Ana came to us noticing the early signs of facial aging: some laxity in the lower face, jowling starting to form, her brows beginning to drop, and her upper eyelids feeling a little heavier than she liked. She wasn't looking to dramatically change her face. She just wanted to look like herself again, only refreshed.

We addressed everything with a:

βœ”οΈ Deep plane face and neck lift
βœ”οΈ Temporal brow lift
βœ”οΈ Upper blepharoplasty
βœ”οΈ Laser resurfacing to the under-eye area

Three weeks in, she's still early in her recovery. Swelling is still settling, results will continue to refine over the next several months, but you can already see exactly where this is heading.

One of the most common questions I hear is: What can I do to heal faster after surgery? πŸ€”

Most patients assume there's a special supplement, treatment, or shortcut that will dramatically speed up recovery. The reality is much simpler.

Patients who tend to heal best are usually the ones who focus on the fundamentals: good nutrition, quality sleep, hydration, regular movement, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle both before and after surgery. ✨

Another common misconception is that patients need to aggressively diet or lose weight immediately before surgery. In most cases, normal weight fluctuations of 5-10 lbs will not significantly impact facial surgery results.

πŸ‘‰πŸ» However, if you're planning to lose a substantial amount of weight, typically 20 lbs or more, it's often best to reach your goal weight first and maintain it for several months before considering a facelift or facial rejuvenation procedure.

Surgery is not a substitute for healthy habits, and healthy habits are often the foundation for the best surgical outcomes.

If you're considering facial plastic surgery, understanding the recovery process is just as important as understanding the procedure itself.

This is what a natural facelift looks like! ✨

At 54 years old, our beautiful patient Dora felt energetic, vibrant, and youthful, but her reflection was telling a different story.

To address the aging changes affecting the upper face, midface, jawline, and neck, Dora underwent a:

βœ”οΈ Deep plane face and neck lift
βœ”οΈ Temporal brow repositioning
βœ”οΈ Buccal fat pad removal
βœ”οΈ Facial fat grafting

Swipe through to see the full transformation, including some close-up detail shots.

A few things worth pointing out:

➑️ The neck contour in her profile view is one of the most dramatic changes. That cervicomental angle going from undefined to completely sculpted is exactly what a well-executed deep plane neck lift can achieve. Her jawline is clean, jowls are gone, and her marionette lines resolved naturally without looking pulled or overdone.

➑️ Her brow lift is subtle, intentionally so. Rather than a dramatic change, we repositioned the tail of her brow, which opened up the outer eye area and eliminated that downward droop at the corner. No upper eyelid surgery involved, just the brow doing its job properly.

The goal is always the same: results that look like you, only rested, refreshed, and timeless.

Over the years, my goal has always been to create a facial plastic surgery practice centered around thoughtful surgical care, natural results, and an exceptional patient experience from beginning to end.

I’m excited to finally share our newly redesigned website, which reflects that vision and gives patients a closer look into our practice, philosophy, procedures, and approach to facial rejuvenation.

One of the most common concerns patients notice is heaviness of the upper eyelids. Excess skin in this area can create a tired appearance, make the eyes look smaller, and sometimes even contribute to makeup sitting poorly on the lids.

This 42-year-old patient underwent upper blepharoplasty to remove excess upper eyelid skin and restore a brighter, more refreshed appearance, while still looking completely natural and like herself.

Upper eyelid surgery can often be performed with a relatively straightforward recovery and can make a significant impact despite being a smaller procedure.

If you’ve started noticing heaviness or hooding around the eyes, this may be an option worth exploring.

Grateful to have spent the weekend in Boston presenting at The Aesthetic Meet 2026 alongside so many talented colleagues and leaders in facial plastic surgery.

Meetings like these are an important part of continuing to refine our craft, exchange ideas, and advance the field through collaboration and education.

I had the opportunity to present on rhinoplasty while also reconnecting with mentors, colleagues, and friends who continue to shape and elevate facial plastic surgery.

Until next year!

Some of the most meaningful moments in our practice are hearing patients describe how they feel after surgery in their own words. ✨

Doreen wanted to address signs of facial aging while still looking completely like herself – refreshed, rested, and natural.

πŸ‘‰πŸ» Her treatment plan included a deep plane face and neck lift, temporal brow repositioning, facial fat grafting, and facial rejuvenation tailored specifically to her anatomy and goals.

Patient testimonials matter because they go beyond before and after photos. They reflect the confidence, comfort, and experience patients carry with them long after surgery.

We’re grateful to patients like Doreen for trusting our team and sharing their journey. 🀍

Some of the most beautiful facial rejuvenation results are the ones that simply make patients look refreshed, rested, and naturally like themselves again. ✨

At 54 years old, my beautiful patient Dora wanted to address several common signs of facial aging while preserving her natural features and facial identity.

Her personalized surgical plan included:

βœ… Deep plane face and neck lift
βœ… Temporal brow lift
βœ… Facial fat grafting
βœ… Buccal fat pad removal

By approaching the face comprehensively, we were able to restore youthful structure and balance rather than simply tightening skin.

Notice the improvement in:

πŸ‘‰πŸ» Jawline and neck contour
πŸ‘‰πŸ» Brow position and eye openness
πŸ‘‰πŸ» Softening of deeper folds and facial heaviness
πŸ‘‰πŸ» Overall facial harmony and refreshment

Natural results are rarely about changing the face. They’re about restoring it thoughtfully. ✨
