Most people think facelifts are about vanity… but the truth is very different.

A facelift isn’t about changing who you are. For many patients, it’s about restoring the alignment between how they feel inside and how they look on the outside. That misalignment can affect confidence, energy, and even emotional well-being.

That’s why the goal of the Vertical Restore is not to change how you look—it’s to restore how you looked when you were younger. Natural, balanced, and true to you.

I’m so grateful to my patients who share their stories with honesty and vulnerability. We get to share that this choice is empowering and it’s really about living fully and confidently at every age. 2025-10-01 23:37:49 Most peop.. 603 -80% 44 -74%

Healing comes with ups and downs. There is no exact timeline that everyone follows, some days you will be more swollen, and the next you may feel you’ve never looked better! It really takes a whole year for swelling to fully subside.

The name of the game is looking like you’ve never had anything done. Looking like yourself but a younger version. The version that makes you look as young as you feel.

Let me know if by looking at her after you would ever be able to tell what procedure she had done. Of course, when you look at the after you can appreciate the major transformation in. So many of our patients tell us that no one to tell they had any work done and even their close family members are unaware unless they tell them.

In my opinion, this is the characteristic of an amazing outcome, and this is what we strive for and every case.

Do you agree?

Headed off to Kansas City to watch a Ravens vs Chiefs game with my boys and close friend.  What an experience! These are some spirited fans! We got our butts handed to us in the game unfortunately but I definitely enjoyed my time here.  The people were so friendly.  Of course, had to try the famous BBQ, had an amazing workout at the the Chiefs Fit Gym to work it off (at least try 😂) then off to the game.  One more dinner and back to SD.  Fun to get away for a quick trip.  This is the 3rd year in a row we traveled to watch our Ravens… we’ll see where we end up next year 😊 2025-09-29 05:07:05 Headed off to K.. 1,260 -59% 87 -48%
The Formula for Facial Rejuvenation.  Save and Share. This is my opinion based on 20 years of trial and error, observation, and logic. 

This is what I did/do with my wife, my patients, and personal approach.  It’s not just about time and money loss if you make the wrong decisions… it’s about the opportunity cost and risk. 

For example, none of the non surgical treatments are free of risk so why do something that doesn’t improve things yet has a risk.  At that point it’s just risk. 

When it comes to skin.. it’s always aging starting in the mid 20s and then really spreads up in the 40-50s and beyond.  So the sooner you start doing the right things and doing them everyday the better your skin will look.  So choosing the wrong things to do or not doing them consistently means your skin will just age when it could have been getting younger.  The cost of getting the approach wrong is continued aging.

One week after surgery is always an important milestone. In this video, I sit down with my patient Heidi to talk about how her first week went and what the next stages of healing look like.

We prepare all of our patients extensively before surgery, answering every question and making sure they know exactly what to expect. Healing is a very individual process—some patients have a smooth week like Heidi, while others may face more challenges. Both are completely normal.

Also, because she needed to coordinate travel and other logistics, she booked her surgery earlier than most patients do.

I’m grateful Heidi was open to sharing her experience so you can see firsthand what this stage of recovery can look like.
To address her aging related changes we performed: ✅Vertical Restore
✅Facial Fat Transfer
✅Upper Blepharoplasty
✅Lower Blepharoplasty
✅Hand Fat Transfer

This is what 2.5 months of healing can look like. Make sure you wait until the end because this transformation is beautiful!! 

Remember—healing looks different for everyone. Many factors contribute to recovery after surgery, including:

Our standardized protocol (pre-surgery vitamins, diet restrictions, no smoking, no blood thinners)

Genetics and natural healing ability

How the body responds to bruising and swelling

This patient experienced significant swelling in the first week, which has steadily improved week after week. At 2.5 months, she still has swelling to resolve, but the progress is clear—and there’s even more refinement ahead as healing continues.

To address her aging-related changes, I performed:
✅ Vertical Restore
✅ Facial Fat Transfer
✅ Upper Blepharoplasty
✅ Lower Blepharoplasty with Skin Pinch
✅ Consistent use of the karammdskin Trifecta to restore and maintain skin health
✅ All under local anesthesia with IV sedation (no general anesthesia)

Healing is a journey, and patience is key. The body continues to transform for months after surgery. 2025-09-24 00:34:29 This is.. 1,373 -55% 62 -63%
Why do some facelifts look natural… while others look fake? 👀

It all comes down to the approach and experience. In this video, I break down:
✅ The difference between natural vs. artificial facelift results
✅ Why some facelifts don’t hold up over time
✅ How my Vertical Restore technique creates lasting, natural outcomes without the “pulled” look

Not all facelifts are the same—and understanding the details can change the way you see facial rejuvenation.

Just got back from the AAFPRS Annual Facial Plastic Surgery Conference.

I’ve been attending for almost 25 years, and as always it was amazing catching up with friends and colleagues. What really stood out this year was meeting so many talented young surgeons in their first few years of practice.

It hit me — my generation has become the group they’re looking to for guidance, the same way we once stood on the shoulders of the giants who came before us. Hearing how much they value the teaching and mentorship was incredibly rewarding.

Our specialty is in a great place right now. Facelifts just keep getting better, and it was exciting to share the Vertical Restore® approach and a few pearls I’ve picked up along the way.

I always leave these meetings learning something new — but sharing what I’ve learned is the most fulfilling part.

We’re in an exciting era for facial rejuvenation. 🙌 2025-09-21 04:06:14 Just go.. 1,034 -66% 26 -85%

Meet my beautiful 62-year-old Vertical Restore™️ patient, Stephanie!

I’m so excited to introduce you to Stephanie she’s a great example of doing things right when it comes to anti-aging.

She had her first facelift (not with me) about 10 years ago. That early intervention carried her beautifully through her 50s and allowed her to enjoy life without constantly worrying about the aging process.

On top of that, she’s been diligent about caring for her skin—even while living in Hawaii and spending so much time outdoors. Her dedication to skin health is a big reason she still looks so good today, and it’s also why her upcoming results will be incredible.

Now, 10 years later, Stephanie has started to notice more significant aging and laxity and she’s ready for a Vertical Restore to refresh and restore her look once again.

Who is excited to see a post op update? 

Here is what we did and we actually decided against the lip lift and to stick with just the laser on the upper lip.

✅ Custom Facial Fat Transfer
✅ Contour TRL Peri-Oral

Thank you jessicagreyourisman forbes for the feature this morning. 

As more public figures open up about what they’ve had done (or not had done), interest and curiosity are growing, but so are misconceptions. Transparency can empower, but it also raises questions about how it impacts patients, their expectations, and their well-being. 

As a surgeon, my focus is always on education, safety, and helping patients make decisions that are right for them. Not just what’s trending.

Thank you to the editors and Forbes for including my perspective in this nuanced conversation.

My beautiful 64 year old Vertical Restore facelift patient 5 month post op!

This is it. ❤️ This beautiful transformation is a testament to the power of a comprehensive surgical technique (The Vertical Restore) paired with consistent, effective skincare (karammdskin).

My beautiful patient, Karyn, has turned back the clock 20 years—she looks like the most youthful, vibrant version of herself. This is what facial rejuvenation should be: natural, comprehensive- aging gracefully on your terms.

Her results keep getting better and better. I couldn’t be happier for her and I couldn’t be prouder of these results.

To address her age-related changes, we performed:
✅ Vertical Restore
✅ Facial Fat Transfer
✅ Lower Blepharoplasty
✅Upper Blepharoplasty
✅ Lip Lift
✅ karammdskin Trifecta for her skin 2025-09-10 23:36:01 My .. 1,571 -49% 92 -45%
For years, I watched patients struggle with complicated 10-step skincare routines. The truth is even I couldn’t stay consistent with them. But I also knew that real, lasting transformation requires the right active ingredients, used every single day.

That’s why I created KaramMD Skin. I spent over five years working with a lab to combine every clinically proven active (vitamin C, retinol, niacinamide, peptides, and more) into one streamlined, 3-step system.

The result is the Trifecta: simple to use, powerful results, and designed for consistency.  Now nearly 4 years later, the efficacy of the Trifecta blows my mind. It’s life changing. There is nothing better out there to fight skin aging. This isn’t just a solution for my patients, but for you.

Great skin doesn’t come from chasing the next product trend it comes from committing to a system you can actually follow, morning and night, day in and day out.

This isn’t just about skincare. It’s a lifestyle. Who’s next?

My beautiful 65 year old Vertical Restore patient Lisa, 7 days post op, answers “How did you know you were ready for a facelift?”

This is such a vulnerable and personal question and I feel like so many people can relate to what she was feeling. Aging can feel incredibly lonely. It touches every one of us no one is immune. For many, it can begin to strip away a sense of identity and even affect day-to-day life. If you can relate to this feel free to drop a comment below! 

Whether you choose to embrace aging naturally or decide on facial rejuvenation, both are beautiful choices. What matters most is feeling aligned with who you are inside and out.

I’m grateful to be able to provide my patients with relief, confidence, and the chance to reconnect with themselves in a way that still looks natural.

Thank you so much to Lisa for her beautiful answer and for sharing it with all of you!

My first time at the U.S. Open did not disappoint! What an incredible atmosphere and experience. I can already tell this is going to become an annual tradition for me.

Today I’ll be watching the finals from home, rooting for Carlos Alcaraz (though I have nothing but respect for Sinner). Over the last few months, I’ve become completely enamored with the game of tennis. I’ve been playing a lot myself, and it’s given me not only a new appreciation for the sport but also a whole new outlet for discipline, energy, and joy.

Here’s to the finals, and to many more years of experiencing the magic of the U.S. Open. 🎾

Good luck, Alcaraz! 🎾 Comment below who you’re rooting for 👇 2025-09-07 21:55:48 My f.. 4,717 +54% 183 +9%

I want to share something really important for anyone on GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy who is considering surgery.

GLP-1s slow down gastric emptying. That means food can stay in your stomach much longer than normal. Under anesthesia, this creates a serious risk — aspiration of stomach contents. In the worst cases, it can even be life-threatening.

In my practice, I perform facelifts (Vertical Restore) under local anesthesia with IV sedation, which is safer than general anesthesia. Still, I advise patients to stop GLP-1 medications at least 2 weeks before surgery, and ideally 4 weeks. After surgery, I recommend waiting another 2–4 weeks before restarting, to give your body time to heal and reduce the risk of complications.

So, think of it this way: it’s safest to plan for a 1–2 month pause around your surgery. Your health and safety always come first.

If you’re on these medications and planning surgery, please make sure you discuss it with your surgeon.

WOW. Check out this absolutely beautiful and natural 5 month VR transformation.

My gorgeous 52 year old patient and I had a procedure follow up conversation and my jaw seriously dropped at how amazing she looks. She was beautiful to begin with, but now she can really embrace looking as young as she feels.

She has also been using the karammdskin Trifecta since her surgery in and the commitment is paying off! Shoutout to her and everyone else who has made this commitment to their skin!

Meet My beautiful 65 year old Vertical Restore™️ patient Lisa!

In this video we go over her surgical plan-how we are addressing her aging concerns.

Lisa already looks amazing for her age but it was time for a refresh! Lisa transparently shared that she had a moment a few months back at a wedding that she looked at a photo and really didn’t align with what she saw. She said that was the moment that she was sure she was ready for a Vertical Restore.

I love Lisa’s transparency and openness to share! I really really appreciate it ❤️Who is excited to see her post op?
