The Refresher Lift is more inclusive than a Mac Lift

Christian Drehsen, MD answers: Will a Refresher Lift give a more natural facelift?

A company called Refresher Lift is advertising what they say is a more natural facelift. On their website (refresherlift.com) they say "Unlike so many other face lifts, the Refresher Lift avoids that pulled-back look that we’ve all seen on people who have had face lifts. Instead, the Refresher Lift reduces excess skin while uplifting the cheeks to restore facial volume and the fullness of youth. -- After all, it’s not just the skin that sags with age, but what’s beneath it." Is the Refresher Lift a new break through in facial plastic surgery?

As the developer of the Refresher Lift, I can unambiguously tell you that it is not a Mac Lift, even though it does share some of its goals and the originators share my nationality.

Rejuvenation does not mean tightening. The REFRESHER LIFT restores youthful definition, firmness, and volumes by design of its deep repair. Incisions’ length may vary from short to more extended depending on the degree of sagging of the neck and lower cheek. I believe that by their special design, they reach inconspicuously all areas that require correction while preserving a youthful hairline.
