AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Fillers and Other Injectables
••
Understanding what causes your skin to sag and lines to form plays a crucial part in devising an effective treatment plan. For example, as we lose facial volume and skin elasticity, our facial tissues reposition themselves and form deep wrinkles and folds. While there are many solutions to address this issue, the best way to smooth lines, such as smile lines or nasolabial folds, is through injectable dermal fillers. Made of synthetic, biocompatible materials, dermal fillers are injected directly into the folds of the face and restore lost volume, offering long-lasting, natural-looking results. At my New York City practice, I prefer using Radiesse to add volume to the smile area because it lasts longer than other dermal fillers and doesn’t deflate after the first injection. I also offer Juvéderm Ultra XC and Restylane. Many of my patients also opt for Botox, to smooth wrinkles and help prevent new lines from forming, or a combination of fillers and Botox, for a “liquid facelift.”

Cheek, Chin and Jawline Enhancement
••
Often overlooked in facial beautification and rejuvenation is the importance of facial proportions. For patients who wish to improve volume loss or create greater definition to their cheeks, cheek implants are an excellent option. Similarly, a chin implant can balance other facial features such as a prominent nose and create more distinct facial contours for individuals with a round face and neck.

Face and Neck Lifts
••
At my New York City practice, I frequently perform facelift procedures to smooth facial wrinkles, tighten loose skin, and lift the sagging that results from aging and facial volume loss. Depending on your needs and degree of sagging or jowling, I might suggest a lower facelift, mini facelift, or a midface/cheek lift. I can also combine a lower facelift with a neck lift, which can fight the effects of aging along the neck and jawline. My patients often find that the neck is one of the first parts of the body to show their age. I often recommend this procedure to remove excess neck fat, smooth neck bands, and reduce the dreaded “turkey wattle.” Based on the patient’s age, skin laxity, and body goals, I may suggest a neck lift, neck lift combined with a lower facelift, mini neck lift, or neck liposuction.

Dr Yang is truly the best at what he does. I had a terrible endoscopic brow lift that left my upper eyelids extremely hollow and unrecognizable. The past year has been devastating not recognizing my own eyes which once were my favorite feature on my face. I got upper eyelid filler with Dr Yang and he gave me my eyes back.
I couldn’t be more grateful and more thankful. He is truly an upper eyelid master! Can’t wait to continue to work with him in the future.
Dr Yang is a genius. My eyes became sunken and hollow from an upper bleph surgery that I shouldn’t have had. I was incredibly depressed and stressed, but heard positive reviews about the skills of Dr Yang so flew across the world to seek his assistance for eyelid filler. He was patient, meticulous, methodical, and kind. This is a scary procedure and we did it numerous times over months. He knows the eye like no other and I’m so grateful I trusted him. I’d recommend anyone in this

(I work in ophthalmology so I feel like I need to emphasize this…please choose your surgeon carefully. This is an area of the face where you must seek out a skilled and experienced surgeon if you want it done well and more importantly, safely.)
Dr. Yang’s technique is flawless, a true work of art! I’ve worked with surgeons for over 20 years and his kind and

All of this was through another surgeon, and I don't regret any of the procedures nor do I dislike the work (I actually think the other surgeon did a good job for most of it), but I wanted a change because going to the other surgeon felt like going to a plastic surgery factory and the long wait times due to constant
...read moreI saw Dr. Yang for upper eyelid filler primarily. I live out of town but found him after searching online. It is hard to find someone who specializes in that area of the face in particular. I was impressed by how comprehensive his consultation was and read the raving reviews on his work with upper lid filler. So far I am very pleased with my results. He was honest and was very thorough at analyzing my face. I thought I needed volume in my midface but he said it would be better

Four days ago Dr. Yang performed a neck and lower face lift. This was my second time having this procedure by Dr. Yang. The first was FOURTEEN YEARS ago. I do not think I could explain how happy I have been with the results then. And now again, four days post surgery I can see through the minor swelling that it’s once again fabulous. Dr. Yang’s assistant Mae will answer all questions and the doctor will also speak with you. His surgical assistant, Carmen also was very professional

Dr. Yang was very professional and did and excellent job. I was very comfortable and looked great after, my self esteem went up and I no longer look tired and miserable. Will definitely recommend him to everyone. Will be back in the future. Thank you.
I just love Dr. Yang! He is the best...I know a lot of patients feel that way about their MD, but as someone who works in the medical field and have seen a lot, I especially hold Dr. Yang in the highest regard. I also can go on endlessly about how wonderful Mae is.
I've been dealing with the hollowness of my upper eyelids for about 10 years. I started going to Dr. Yang several years ago and I'm so grateful that I found him. His beautiful skills as a surgeon, combined with his

Upper eye hollowing had become really bad over the last few years. I consulted with a few plastic surgeons and most recommended I just learn to live with it. One surgeon recommended fat transfer to that area but I've read of so many bad outcomes so that was a turn off. And then.... I came across Dr. George Yang's website. So many great before and after photos for this exact problem, "A Frame Deformity". How lucky for me that
