Breast surgery
Pocket Lift
An internal-support breast lift technique that delivers long-term lift and shape by restructuring the breast tissue from within rather than relying on skin tension that will eventually stretch.
Technique
How it's done.
Technique details for this procedure are documented during your consultation. Dr. Cassileth and her team walk through the surgical approach, expected outcomes, and recovery so you understand exactly what to expect before anything is scheduled.
“Most lift techniques rely on skin tension. Skin stretches. By restructuring the internal tissue, we get a result that holds.”
Dr. Lisa Cassileth
“This beautiful office has a very friendly, and organized staff, which makes your visit very enjoyable. Nurse Oanh is the reason I go here, and I will never let anyone else touch my face! She’s not only the kindest person in the world, but her work is absolutely incredible. She listens to what I want and she perfects it every time. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience in so many great treatments, but her injections are a different kind of art. I will forever be a patient and I would refer her to anyone! This place is all around fabulous and it shows in every direction. THE ABSOLUTE BEST!”

FAQ
Common questions.
Will I Have Scars After My Facelift?
Our surgeons are known for exceptional surgical skill and attention to detail. Great care will be taken to make incisions in places where they can be easily hidden, such as within the hairline and behind the ears.
Will People Know That I've Had A Facelift?
Only if you tell them! Our facelift patients are often asked if they have started a new wellness routine or taken a long vacation because they look rested and rejuvenated. Our goal is always to help you look like the best version of yourself, never “tight” or “plastic”.
Do Men Get Facelift Surgery?
Yes, this surgical procedure is popular with men who want to present as more confident and youthful-looking. More than 100,000 men have facelift surgery each year in the U.S.2
Can A Facelift Be Combined With Other Procedures?
Yes, a facelift procedure can be part of a personalized anti-aging treatment plan. Many patients choose to combine facelift with a neck lift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery for upper or lower eyelids.
Can You Perform A Revision Facelift If I Am Unhappy With A Previous Procedure?
In many cases, we can address issues for patients who are unhappy with a previous facelift. Our surgeons have a deep understanding of the underlying facial tissues and structures needed to repair sub-par results from previous surgeries. We know that every person has unique facial anatomy and a consultation appointment is the best way to determine your options.
