Patient Journey: Facial Rejuvenation
Age Range: 60-70
When patients tell us they are interested in facial rejuvenation, one concern rises above all others:
“I just want to look like myself.”
That was exactly this patient’s goal.
Working in the medical field herself and surrounded by family members with healthcare backgrounds, she approached the decision thoughtfully and carefully. She understood the importance of choosing the right surgeon and was not interested in looking dramatically different. Instead, she wanted a subtle, natural refresh that would help her look as vibrant and energetic as she felt.
Over time, she had noticed increasing laxity through her jawline and neck. While the changes were gradual, they began to affect the way she saw herself in photographs and the mirror. She wasn’t looking to change her appearance. She simply wanted to restore the definition and youthful contours that had softened with age.
During her consultation, we discussed her goals at length. While she had some concerns around her eyes, her primary focus was improving her lower face and neck. Together, we developed a surgical plan centered on a facelift and necklift, designed to reposition descended tissues, restore natural contours, and create a refreshed appearance without looking overdone.
Her treatment plan included:
• Preservation Extended Deep Plane Facelift
• Extended Deep Plane Necklift
• Upper Blepharoplasty
Her surgery delivered exactly what she was hoping for: a smoother jawline, improved neck definition, and a more youthful overall appearance that still felt completely authentic to her.
Today, her results are a beautiful example of what modern facial rejuvenation should look like.
Friends and family don’t see a different person. They simply see her looking rested, healthy, and refreshed.
This is what a natural refresh looks like. Not changing who you are, but restoring the features that time has gradually softened and allowing your appearance to better reflect the energy and confidence you still feel inside.
