Flip through the images below to read about 6 problem areas a facelift can rejuvenate.

Hollow Cheeks


Hollowing in the cheeks can create a gaunt, aged appearance. Flatness or indention of the cheek takes away from a youthful appearance. With the facelift, we are able to lift the cheek fat pad in a mostly upward but also slightly backward direction to restore its youthful location in the upper cheek. For most patients, this is enough. For others with more significant volume loss, we may also restore bony volume with the use of silicone implants.

Facelift Testimonials


"I had always been a runner and taken good care of myself so my body was in fairly good shape but my neck and jowls had me looking older than my years. After my procedure my face matched how I felt about myself. Even now at 60, I could easily pass for a woman in her 40's. It is a great feeling. Dr. Patel's skill gave me natural look with no 'pulled too tight' look. The procedure was a breeze with minimal swelling or bruising."


“Genetics caused me to appear as though I was frowning even when I was happy and people were always asking me what was the matter. Dr. Patel gave me a facelift and the results are fabulous. People often tell me I look great, rested, and younger, yet they don't suspect I had a facelift. He also lifted my drooping upper eyelids and did liposuction on my chin. I could not be happier."



"The entire experience was great. I expected the worst, but through recommendations and consulting with Dr Patel - I knew I was in right place. I think a lot of people have the perception (me included) that you would end up with overstretched skin but that was not the case at all. It was perfect."
