Patients go home the same day; most return to work in about one week (Pinnacle Facelift).
  • StemSculpt. Listed on the facelift page as an autologous stem cell mixture injected as a semi-permanent filler (Pinnacle Facelift).
  • Facelift scars. The elite techniques page names seven areas to preserve (temporal and posterior hairlines, helix root, notch above the tragus, tragus, notch below the tragus, earlobe) and describes revision of poorly placed scars (elite techniques).
  • Neck lift. Addresses skin, fat and the platysma, with liposuction when fat is present; incisions behind the ears and under the chin; usually general anesthesia; 2 to 3 hours standalone; swelling and bruising in the first one to two weeks; light activity within 10 to 14 days (neck lift).
  • Prices. The site publishes none.
  • Galleries. Facelift (15 cases listed), neck lift (11 cases listed).

Other facial procedures

The site offers blepharoplasty (eyelid; gallery), coronal or endoscopic brow lift in his accredited Beverly Hills surgical facility (brow lift; gallery), lip contouring, chin augmentation, otoplasty and rhinoplasty.
