During the consultation, Dr. Chang will have an open and honest discussion about what is possible and achievable for a natural and elegant result.

Before & After

“Surgery sans looking surgical”

top Deep Plane Facelift Surgeon

Dr. Catherine Chang, MD, FACS is a Beverly Hills facial plastic surgeon who specializes in deep plane facelift procedures that surgically tighten the skin on the face and neck while improving the appearance of the tell-tale signs of aging. She is most notably recognized for her extremely natural results that take years off her patient’s appearance.

She uses her education and advanced training to perform facelifts using the most advanced technology and modern techniques. Dr. Chang has an advanced understanding of how to treat the underlying causes of complex facial anatomy issues, including skin laxity and jowling.

While traditional facelifts only lift the face horizontally, Dr. Chang’s modern facelift techniques lift the face almost entirely vertically which is the most ideal technique for optimal results as aging and gravity pull facial skin and underlying soft tissue downward over time.
