Additional techniques include the SMAS lift, mini facelift for mild laxity, mid-facelift for cheek volume loss, men's facelift, facelift revision, and non-surgical options using injectables and laser.

Recovery is approximately two weeks; travelling patients are advised to plan a 10–14 day post-operative stay in San Diego. Results are designed to remain stable for 10–15 years.
