Facelift: Experience transformative facelift procedures at Larson Aesthetics, where Dr. John Larson, our board-certified plastic surgeon, specializes in rejuvenating your appearance with precision and care. While there are many types of facelifts, in general, facelift is a surgical procedure that has the power to help reverse the signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, and re-draping the face and neck skin. Facelifts may be performed alone or in conjunction with a brow lift, eyelid rejuvenation, facial fat transfer, chin implant, and/or laser resurfacing. Each facelift is meticulously tailored to address your unique concerns and goals, providing natural-looking results that enhance your confidence and beauty. Restore youthful contours, smooth wrinkles, and achieve a refreshed appearance with our expert techniques. Schedule a consultation today to embark on your journey towards renewed confidence and timeless beauty.

• SMAS Facelift: The SMAS is a deep fibromuscular layer that provides the structural support for the face. With time and gravity, it ultimately stretches and descends and needs to be repositioned and tightened back to its original position. Following the tightening of the SMAS, Dr. Larson then redrapes the skin in a way that provides a natural, more youthful appearance.
• Deep Plane Facelift: The deep plane facelift is similar to the SMAS facelift, with a few key differences. While the SMAS facelift lifts the SMAS back to its original position, the deep plane facelift goes below the SMAS layer to address a wider area of laxity. The deep plane also releases ligaments that anchor the SMAS layer down, allowing the tissue to be lifted and resuspended in a dramatic fashion. This results in a more substantial lift that provides natural-results that last longer than a traditional facelift.
• Mini Facelift: This is a modified version of a full facelift procedure. A mini facelift is a great way to be proactive and address the early signs of aging. It uses shorter incisions than a typical facelift, and can be a great option for patients who have mild laxity. This procedure is often combined with adjuvant skin tightening procedures to further elevate the results. Dr. Larson performs the mini facelift with limited incisions that are shorter than a traditional facelift, but still allows him to manipulate the skin and tissue with a high degree of precision. The mini facelift is ideal for those with limited laxity in the lower face and neck. For patients with more extensive aging and more excess skin, a full facelift option is often best. These incisions, although longer, are well hidden and difficult to see.
• Revision Facelift: If you’ve had a previous facelift operation, but are unsatisfied with your result, a revision facelift can improve your result. Dr. Larson takes a very individualized approach to address the problems with your initial facelift. Sometimes not enough skin was removed during the initial facelift, or the structural underlying tissue of the face (SMAS/facial muscles) was not properly addressed. Other problems include poor scarring, asymmetry, pulled earlobes, or other contour abnormalities. During your consultation, Dr. Larson will provide you with a comprehensive plan that addresses your areas of concern.

This surgical procedure shortens the space between the nose and the top of the lip. Over time, the top lip can begin to sag or even roll inwards toward the teeth, making the entire face appear older. A lip lift can elevate the top lip and enhance the appearance of the face. Unlike lip fillers, the procedure is permanent. An upper lip lift shortens and improves the distance between the top lip and the nose, pulling up the lip to show more of the teeth, while a corner lip lift can help permanent frowning. Dr. Larson uses only local numbing medicine for the procedure, which can be performed in-office or added to another facial procedure.

• Lip Reduction: While most clients desire fuller lips, some patients struggle with lips that are too large, asymmetric, or unbalanced. Dr. Larson meticulously reduces excess volume in the lips, corrects lips that are asymmetric, or those that present with different fullness in the top and bottom lip. This procedure is often performed in-office using local anesthesia.

Losing volume around the eyes, cheeks, and other parts of the face can make you look more tired and older than you feel. You can change this by filling problem areas with small injections of your own fat. For this procedure, your fat is collected using liposuction in areas you have excess fat like the thighs. The fat is then purified and carefully injected where needed. This procedure is effective for filling deep facial lines, sunken cheeks, sunken eyes, descended brows, nasolabial fold, deflated lips, and the hollow crease in front of the jowls.
