“It was an incredible pleasure and honor to be trusted with her restoration and more importantly, the preservation of her character and beauty.

“It’s hard to describe in a paragraph the type of surgery and procedures I do because they are so unique and there isn’t a really standard to compare it to.

“If you look at every mm from top to bottom of any photo you will see comprehensive improvements.”

The medical professional continued: “As we age so many little things can change like the disarray of the eyebrow hair pattern.

“If you look at the after photo, you can see how much more organized they look from the three dimensional changes I’m able to make.

“If you look at the forehead contours from the side view, you can see how young in the shape looks now.

“Her stunning, gorgeous eyes were restored rather than changed or just cleaned up. Even her earlobes look better from all views.”

Dr. Ben revealed the facelift is that of a “deep plane type lift” which “hasn’t been described before”.

He concluded: “I’m so grateful to Denise for being so open about the procedure. She’s been through so much this past year and her resilience is just astounding.

“She has a golden heart and her golden face is hers again.”
