An Expert in Facelifts
Dr. Scottsdale® has expertise in facelift procedures and is well-known for producing natural, rejuvenating results, allowing patients to appear refreshed and youthful without looking “overly done.” Using advanced techniques for both mini and full facelifts, he works to ensure that there is minimal scarring, faster recovery, and long-lasting results, all while enhancing the patient’s natural beauty.
Dr. Scottsdale® can help smooth stubborn wrinkles, lift and tone sagging skin, and define the natural contours of the face. His customized treatment plans aim to help each patient reach their own unique goals, while their in-house, QUAD-accredited surgical suite provides a private and comfortable environment.
At the Natural Results Plastic Surgery Clinic, Dr. Scottsdale® primarily focuses on three techniques to ensure his patients get the results they desire, including:
- SMAS Plication works by targeting the superficial musculoaponeurotic system of muscle and connective tissue to achieve a lifting effect during a facelift, addressing moderate skin laxity in the lower face and neck.
- The MACS Facelift is a less invasive method that uses smaller incisions and sutures to suspend the midface, tightening the cheeks and correcting facial features like loose skin in the middle and lower face.
- The Deep Plane Facelift reaches the deeper muscle layers to lift the entire face, not just the skin, correcting more advanced aging changes such as severe sagging skin, jowls, and loss of facial and neck definition.
Dr. Scottsdale® performs three types of facelifts, including:
- The Mini Facelift is less invasive and aims to reduce the signs of age in the lower face and neck.
- The Mid-Facelift targets the middle of the face to address moderate sagging and wrinkles. It also helps to rejuvenate the cheeks and reduce nasolabial folds and mild jowls.
- The Full Facelift is a comprehensive procedure that aims to address the advanced signs of aging in the middle and lower thirds of the face as well as the neck.
Achieving Natural Results
Dr. Scottsdale®’s approach to beauty is fully personalized and done in collaboration with his patients to understand their unique aesthetic goals. This specialized approach allows him to deliver results that enhance a patient’s natural beauty without sacrificing their individuality in the process.
