Thank you for the question.This is just a marketing name but the same technique is used for this procedure.Dr. Campos
It is purely a marketing term to try to convey a magical unique advanced procedure. "Named" procedures are usually only done by the surgeon who coined the term. The pinnacle face lift, similar to most "named" procedures, is used for publicity and is not recognized in the valid plastic surgery literature.There are matters that are far more critical in achieving a good result than getting a particular "named" or standardized procedure: Making sure that the procedure is individualized to your particular anatomy and desired outcome, having realistic expectations, and understanding the advantages and disadvantages of the various available options. I would suggest finding a plastic surgeon certified by theAmerican Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Societyfor Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable withand discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.Robert Singer, MD FACSLa Jolla, California
