Facelift and neck lift work
- Deep plane facelift. The page states the deep plane releases the zygomatic and masseteric ligaments so skin, fat and SMAS move as one unit; it is combined as needed with a deep neck lift, eye and brow work and fat repositioning. Outpatient, general anesthesia (TIVA per "The surgery" section), five to seven hours, or four to six hours for a combined face and neck lift (facelift).
- Facelift recovery, as printed. Drains 24 to 48 hours if used; sutures removed at day ten to fourteen; return to non-strenuous work at week three; exercise at six weeks; no restrictions at three months; final result at twelve months.
- Endoscopic facelift. Lifts the brow, outer eye and cheek through short incisions in the hairline, often with a deep neck lift; two to three hours; presentable at ten to fourteen days (endoscopic facelift).
- Deep neck lift. Through a small incision under the chin, the deep fat is refined and the platysma tightened at the midline; the page also calls it a short-scar neck lift. Three to four hours; ten to fourteen days primary recovery; final settling at six to twelve months (deep neck lift).
- Galleries. The results page is mostly rhinoplasty. Face and neck cases: Sandra, full face and neck lift with brow lift, upper blepharoplasty and fat grafting at eighteen months (sandra); Lizzie, rhinoplasty and deep neck lift (lizzie).

Not verified: the queue lists Fort Worth, TX; the site lists only the New York office. The facelift page gives suture removal as one week in its summary and day ten to fourteen in its recovery detail. The cost estimator is an interactive form with no printed figures.
