Facelift + Necklift Expert in Newport Beach and Santa Monica

Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian is a double board-certified plastic surgeon with expertise in antiaging procedures that can rejuvenate and recontour the face. In our Santa Monica plastic surgery practice, we offer a full facelift and necklift with deep-plane recontouring of the facial silhouette. In medical terms, this procedure is known as a rhytidectomy, because it redefines facial lines and removes the obvious signs of facial aging. With less wrinkles, sagging skin, marionette lines, jowls, and neck bands; we can help restore your youthful complexion and skin tightness. Dr. Karamanoukian is a specialist in facelift surgery and offers his expertise in Newport Beach, Santa Monica, and Beverly Hills.

As plastic surgeons, we are often tasked with the important task of analyzing the biometrics of the face and neck to determine the most suitable procedure for facial rejuvenation. Dr. Karamanoukian will carefully examine your face to determine the amount of skin laxity, eyelid droopiness, facial sagging, and neck laxity. If you have significant neck bands, we may recommend a surgical plication of the neck bands to tighten and tone the jawline. Whether your surgery is in Newport Beach or Beverly Hills, our goal is to give you a natural look and feel.

Understanding a Facelift + Necklift
As we age, there are three main problems that contribute to premature aging. Our skin complexion begins to change, our skin begins to wrinkle, and our deeper tissue begins to sag. A facelift and necklift can address these three components of facial aging by tightening the deeper tissue in the face, removing excess skin, and improving skin complexion with antiaging lasers.

Dr. Karamanoukian performs a combination necklift and facelift to address both of these very important areas of facial aging. In doing so, he can restore integrity to the deeper tissue of the face, improve skin complexion with lasers and chemical peels, tighten loose skin, and reduce wrinkles. Some patients will also require facial balancing, fat grafting, chemical peels, or laser skin resurfacing.

Our office offers eyelid lifts, rhinoplasty nose jobs, cheeklifts, and jawline contouring in addition to the facelift and necklift procedure. If you are interested in a deep plane facelift in Newport Beach or Santa Monica, we offer comprehensive options to match your aesthetic goals.

There are many less-invasive procedures such as lasers and skin resurfacing that can complement your facelift and necklift. If you live in the Southern California communities of Newport Beach, Santa Monica, or Beverly Hills, we would recommend an in-person consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals.
