A facelift should make you look refreshed, not different. Dr. Neavin combines advanced lifting techniques with strategic fat transfer to restore what time has taken—without the telltale signs of surgery.
Schedule Consultation View ResultsAging isn't just about loose skin. The face loses volume in the temples and cheeks. Deep structures descend with gravity. Skin loses its elasticity.
Simply tightening skin creates that "done" look nobody wants. The secret to natural results? Address all three components: lift the deep tissues, restore lost volume, and redrape skin without tension.
That's exactly what my approach delivers.
When performed correctly, facelift surgery delivers some of the most dramatic yet natural-looking improvements available.
Restore a clean, defined jawline by lifting descended tissue back where it belongs.
Return the midface to a higher, more youthful position without looking "pulled."
SMAS techniques with fat transfer provide results lasting 10-15 years—not months.
I was nervous about looking 'done,' but Dr. Neavin completely put my mind at ease. My friends just say I look rested and refreshed. I wish I had done this years ago.
Facelift Patient
Not every patient needs the same procedure. During consultation, I'll recommend the technique that matches your anatomy and goals.
Best for patients in their 40s-50s with early jowling and minimal skin laxity who want subtle improvement.
My signature approach. Combines deep tissue lifting with volume restoration for comprehensive, natural rejuvenation.
From consultation to final results, here's what to expect.
Detailed evaluation and personalized surgical plan
3-5 hour procedure under general anesthesia
Most return to activities in 2-3 weeks
Full results visible at 3-6 months
Most patients describe recovery as easier than expected. Here's the typical timeline.
Dressings removed, bruising visible
Bruising fading, short walks OK
Return to work, makeup can cover
Swelling resolved, results visible
The best candidates are typically in their 50s-70s and notice jowling, deep nasolabial folds, or loss of definition between face and neck.
You should be in good overall health, a non-smoker (or willing to quit), and have realistic expectations about outcomes.
If your primary concerns are fine lines or skin texture—not sagging—other treatments may be more appropriate. We'll discuss all options during your consultation.
