Male Facelift IN BEVERLY HILLS

Natural, Masculine Facial Rejuvenation by Dr. Elie Ramly

A male facelift requires a different artistic eye, different incision strategy, and a completely different approach than surgery for women. Men want to look refreshed, not “lifted.” Sharpened, not tightened. More confident, not different.

At Ramly Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Elie Ramly specializes in male deep-plane facelift surgery that restores a strong jawline, eliminates jowls and neck laxity, and rejuvenates the face while preserving a masculine identity and natural expression.

The goal: look younger, stronger, and more rested — without ever looking like you had surgery.

Why Men Seek a Facelift

Men develop aging patterns differently, often focusing on:

  • Loss of jawline definition

  • Jowling and heavy lower face

  • Sagging neck skin

  • Loose platysma bands

  • Tired or heavy appearance

  • Thick, sun-damaged skin

  • Heaviness around the midface

  • “Corporate fatigue” or looking older than they feel

A well-executed male facelift restores structure, not tightness — creating a clean, powerful jawline and natural neckline with no tell-tale signs of surgery.

Why Male Facelifts Are Different

Male facelift surgery requires unique expertise because:

  • The male hairline and sideburns must remain natural

  • Incisions must be placed discreetly in beard-bearing skin

  • Pulling in the wrong direction feminizes facial features

  • The male platysma and deeper tissues are thicker

  • Over-tightening is more obvious in men

  • Men cannot hide behind makeup or longer hair

  • The aesthetic goal is strength, not delicacy

Precision is everything. The result must look natural in direct sunlight, in a boardroom, in photos, and unfiltered day-to-day interactions.

Dr. Ramly’s Approach to the Male Facelift

Structural Lift. Masculine Definition. Natural Identity.

Dr. Ramly performs a deep-plane facelift, the gold standard for long-lasting, natural results — especially for men.

His approach includes:

  • Lifting the deep tissues (SMAS/deep-plane) instead of tightening skin

  • Restoring a strong, masculine jawline without over-elevating the midface

  • Respecting beard pattern and facial hair growth

  • Maintaining angularity, structure, and definition

  • Avoiding any “pulled” or feminized look

  • Refining the neck with precise platysma repair

  • Using subtle fat grafting only when appropriate

  • Creating results that do not look operated — even up close

This is facelift surgery built specifically for masculine anatomy and proportions.

Male Deep-Plane Technique

Why It Works Exceptionally Well for Men

Men benefit more than women from the deep-plane approach because:

  • Their tissues are heavier and require a true lift

  • The SMAS layer must be addressed directly

  • The jawline definition improves dramatically when lifted from underneath

  • Skin tightening alone looks unnatural on male faces

  • Deep-plane lifts produce powerful yet natural improvement

  • Results remain stable for many years

The outcome is a sharper, more youthful jawline that still looks inherently masculine.

Incision Placement for Men

Invisible, Barber-Safe Planning

Incisions are placed with extreme attention to:

  • Hair-bearing skin

  • Beard follicles

  • Sideburn position

  • Natural creases

Dr. Ramly places incisions:

  • Along the natural tragus crease (not in front of it)

  • Inside or along the edge of the beard-bearing skin

  • Behind the ear in a discreet, masculine way

  • Low in the hairline ONLY when appropriate for male patterns

This ensures scars remain discreet and hair growth patterns remain completely natural.

What a Male Facelift Can Improve

A male facelift can address:

  • Significant jowls

  • Sagging cheeks

  • Loss of jawline strength

  • Neck laxity or “turkey neck”

  • Loose skin and platysma bands

  • Fat accumulation under the chin

  • Deep nasolabial folds

  • General heaviness of the lower face

The result is a sharper, stronger, younger version of your natural self.

Male Facelift + Neck Lift

Most men benefit from treating the face and neck together, as aging in men often concentrates in:

  • The neck

  • Under the chin

  • Jawline heaviness

A combined facelift–neck lift produces:

  • A clean, defined cervicomental angle

  • A powerful jawline silhouette

  • Removal of bulk and heaviness

  • A sharper, more athletic profile

Some men opt for a standalone male neck lift (you have a separate dedicated page).

Ideal Candidates

A male facelift may be right for you if you:

  • Want to look younger without looking done

  • Prefer strength and structure, not softness

  • Have jowls or sagging around the jawline

  • Have a heavy or loose neck

  • Want results that blend into daily life seamlessly

  • Need a natural, non-feminizing outcome

  • Prefer a surgeon experienced in male facial anatomy

This is a highly individualized procedure — never one-size-fits-all.

Expected Results

A male facelift can deliver:

  • A stronger, sharper jawline

  • A smoother, tighter neck

  • More youthful lower face definition

  • Improved confidence and presence

  • A natural appearance in all lighting

  • Results that last many years

Patients often say:
“People think I look upgraded — not operated.”

Recovery Timeline

  • Week 1: swelling + bruising; incisions well hidden

  • Week 2: dramatically improved; many return to work

  • Weeks 3–6: refinement and definition

  • Months 3–12: final contour emerges

Most men recover faster socially because they often wear shorter hair and do not use makeup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I look pulled or feminized?

No. The surgical plan is designed specifically for male anatomy and avoids softening or over-elevation.

Are the scars visible?

Do male facelifts last as long as female facelifts?
