Facial Surgery in Dunwoody,
Sandy Springs & North Atlanta


Facelift and neck lift, brow lift, eyelid contouring, ear contouring, and chin and profile refinement — planned around the structure of the individual face rather than a single technique.

Before You Choose

Which Procedure Does What


These operations are often confused with one another, and the distinction matters when you are deciding what to ask about.

  • A facelift improves the face from the upper cheeks down — the jawline, the jowls, and the contour beneath the chin.
  • It does not raise the eyebrows. That is a brow lift, and it is a separate operation.
  • The eyes are addressed with blepharoplasty — eyelid contouring — not with a facelift.
  • Procedures are frequently combined. Brow lifts and eyelid lifts are often performed alongside a facelift; ear or nasal surgery sometimes.
  • Total anesthesia time is a real constraint. Dr. Stephenson rarely adds breast or body liposuction to a facial procedure for that reason.
