This patient is a famed cosmetic dentist and the father of cosmetic dentistry. Images here show his journey from ONLY 10 days after a deep plane facelift and neck lift to lift jowls and remove deep neck fat and sagging neck, rhinoplasty to lift the tip of the nose (common with aging noses), and blepharoplasty to lift sagging eyelid skin & laser to make sure skin matches the youthful new face.

10 days post-operation, the patient went back to work, although some swelling is still present. Improvement is dramatic but natural because the deep tissue was lifted in the proper direction with no distortion of the mouth or eyes and because we do not separate deep tissue from the skin in a deep plane facelift. The patient recovered quickly partly because tissue glue was used and no drains were used and partly to Dr techniques in a deep plane facelift.

The last image is 5 weeks post-op.
