Updated: Jul 23


In a world where everyone is living longer healthier lives the desire to look as youthful and refreshed as we feel is driving more innovations in facial plastics. More patients are seeking facelift procedures to refresh, rejuvenate their facial anatomy and Dr.Anil Shah, renowned New York based plastic surgeon, has been on the forefront of pioneering new innovative and progressive facelift techniques. 


Facelift surgery has undergone significant advancements over the years, starting from simply tightening up the skin to more sophisticated techniques that address underlying muscle and tissue laxity. While traditional facelifts often involve longer incisions along the hairline and behind the ears, Dr. Anil Shah recognized the need for a more refined approach that minimizes scarring without compromising on results. He developed a groundbreaking technique that transforms a traditional long-incision into a 3 cm incision hidden behind the ear. By focusing on deeper tissues and muscles, he is able to achieve dramatic yet natural-looking results with a significantly smaller incision. Here's how it works:

While a traditional facelift would consist simply of superficial tightening of the skin, Dr. Shah lifts and repositions deeper tissues, including the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer. This allows for a more comprehensive correction of facial sagging and results in longer-lasting outcomes. Paying special attention to the underlying facial muscles Dr.Shah uses precision tightening and repositioning as needed to restore youthful contours and improve facial harmony. By addressing muscle laxity, he is able to achieve a more natural and rejuvenated appearance. Dr.Shah also understood the importance of achieving the most natural look possible which meant ensuring minimal scarring and incision marks. Dr. Shah is able to conceal the incisions within the natural contours of the ear, resulting in a discreet 3 cm scar that is virtually undetectable. This minimally invasive approach appeals to patients who are concerned about visible scarring.


Dr.Shah’s advanced method also gives the patient longer lasting results. By addressing deeper tissues and muscle laxity, Dr. Shah's technique produces results that stand the test of time, allowing patients to enjoy a rejuvenated appearance for years to come.


At his practice in NYC, Dr. Anil Shah prioritizes patient comfort, safety, and satisfaction above all else. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, he and his team provide personalized attention and support every step of the way. Patients can trust in Dr. Shah's expertise and experience to deliver exceptional results tailored to their unique aesthetic goals.
