Facelift in Beverly Hills by Dr. Patrick Davis
Experience the transformative effects of a facelift in Beverly Hills with renowned Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Davis. With a focus exclusively in facial rejuvenation, Dr. Davis is skilled in the majority of facelift methods, but he and his patients prefer the deep plane facelift technique which affords a durable, natural result. Furthermore, he pioneered the innovative EvoLyft(™) procedure that he developed as a natural evolution of the deep plane facelift.
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a common cosmetic procedure that can transform wrinkles and skin laxity on the face for a younger-looking and refreshed appearance. To achieve these results, a facial plastic surgeon will make discreet incisions, usually near the hairline, and then remove excess skin and sometimes adjust deeper tissue or even lax facial muscles. There are several different approaches for facelift surgery, these include the skin-only, SMAS, and deep plane facelift techniques among other variations. As a facial anatomy expert, Dr. Davis specializes specifically in the deep plane facelift technique--known for its vertical lift and natural results.
The EvoLyft(™) facelift technique was designed and developed by Dr. Davis and is an evolution of the traditional deep plane facelift. The EvoLyft(™) works by lifting the deep tissue vertically while minimally separating it from the skin, preserving skin integrity and minimizing swelling and bruising. This technique offers a shorter recovery period while still providing incredibly natural looking results that the deep plane facelift is known for. Dr. Davis additionally has evolved his incisions to be quite discreet with patients able to wear their hair up in the back, as well as a lack of incisions along the frontal hairline allowing near invisible scarring.
This procedure targets visible signs of aging by lifting and tightening the underlying facial muscles, removing excess skin, and reshaping the contours of the face and neck. Great results can lead to increased self-confidence and a more youthful, refreshed appearance. By addressing sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of muscle tone, a facelift can help patients look younger and feel a sense of vitality again.

Serious risks with a facelift are rare, especially with a skilled professional, but possible minor side effects could include swelling, bruising, or bleeding.
Many patients see great results after a facelift that lasts for up to ten years or even longer with great skincare and maintenance. It is important to note, with a deep plane facelift, the facial structures are now lifted and healed into place in a manner that tends to be more resistant to gravity then facial tissue that has not had surgery. This phenomenon accounts for many patients enjoying great durability and often receiving the “why are you not aging?” compliment.
