Facelift is one of the most sought after aesthetic plastic surgery procedures to allow patients to age gracefully and maintain harmony between how they look and feel.
Facelifting techniques have been constantly evolving.
Through Dr. Jay Calvert’s 25 years of practicing plastic surgery, he has crafted a facial rejuvenation procedure which leaves patients with desired rejuvenated, natural appearance.
He is proud to offer The Natural Lift by Dr. Jay Calvert™.
WHAT IS THE NATURAL LIFT by Dr. Jay Calvert™
The Natural Lift by Dr. Jay Calvert™ or Dr. Jay Calvert’s Natural Lift™ is a combination of the lower face and neck lift and an endoscopic midface lift.
Also, the midface lift catches and lifts the lateral brow (tail of the brow).
Additionally, blepharoplasty (eyelid) surgery of the upper and lower lids is commonly performed concomitantly for harmony of the entire face.
The neck is approached through a small incision below the chin to tighten the platysma muscles in the neck.
The lower face is addressed with a sub-SMAS/deep plane approach that allows Dr. Calvert to eliminate the jowls, clean the jawline, and mitigate the heavy look of an aged face.
A midface lift under endoscope guidance elevates the cheek. Dr. Calvert has been employing this endoscopic technique since he was in his residency at the University of Pittsburgh.
He has been seeing drastic results that elevate the cheek mass into a youthful position without having to make visible incisions on the face.
Furthermore, the same incision allows for him to lift the lateral brow, which is also typically descended in an aged face.
HOW THE NATURAL LIFT by Dr. Jay Calvert™ KEEP PATIENTS LOOKING NATURAL
This operation is thoughtful with patients’ anatomy.
Dr. Calvert treats the neck, the lower face and cheek, and the midface/brow each with distinguished consideration. Each component needs to be lifted following appropriate vectors.
This three-vector approach tightens the neck laterally, elevates the cheek and lower face in a lateral and vertical direction, and lifts the brow and midface vertically.
Additionally, these procedures place focus on elevating the underlying structures versus just the skin. As a result, this prevents creation of the windswept appearance.
All together, Dr. Calvert’s considerations ensure a natural, non-operated result.
WHY THE NATURAL LIFT by Dr. Jay Calvert™
The Natural Lift by Dr. Jay Calvert™ provides maximal beautification at the cost of very minimal scarring!
Dr. Calvert combines the deep plane facelift with a minimally invasive endoscopic midface and brow lift. The scars are well hidden in the creases of the ear with a small one-inch incision behind the ear into the hairline and behind the hairline of forehead.
Therefore, patients are able to wear their hair completely pulled back without a trace of surgery in sight!
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE for Dr. Jay Calvert’s Natural Lift™?
Anyone from age 35 to 95 who wants a rejuvenated, natural look! Patients as young as 35 are seeing signs of facial aging.
First, the cheek descends which exaggerates under eye hollowing and begins to create heaviness of the lower face.
These patients are great candidates for the endoscopic midface and brow lift.
By their 40s, patients begin to see their lower face and jaw take on a more boxy shape.
In fact, patients have been staving off these unappealing features by having a facelift at a younger age.
However, there is no age limit to who can look and feel their best with Dr. Jay Calvert’s Natural Lift™.
