"Thank you so much, Doctor, for your professionalism and talent. You changed my life."
"He is the best surgeon you can trust. Truly excellent hands and a natural result."
"I look like a rested version of myself. No one can tell I had surgery, only that I look great."
Sagging is a structural issue, not a volume one.
Fillers address volume. Lasers address texture. Threads provide minimal, temporary lift. None of them reposition the deeper facial layers that have shifted over the decades.
That is why the maintenance cycle never ends. You keep paying to chase a result fillers were never built to deliver. One deep plane facelift can provide 10 to 15 years of improvement and end the cycle entirely.
A fresher, more rested version of yourself.
Instead of pulling skin tight, Dr. Gerth releases and repositions the deeper muscle-fascia layers, the true source of the change.
The deeper SMAS and muscle-fascia layers are released and lifted to where they belong, never pulled taut into a worked-on look.
Jowls, jawline, neck, and midface are addressed together in one procedure for balanced, harmonious results.
Because the lift comes from beneath, incisions heal imperceptibly, hidden along the hairline and natural contours.
Muscles and tissue move as they always have. Your expressions stay yours, just refreshed and rested.
Performed with precision and comfort in mind, most patients recover in the comfort of their own home the same day.
Because structure is corrected and not just skin, the improvement holds for 10 to 15 years.
From bayfront terraces to sunlit afternoons, feel confident, rested, and unmistakably yourself again.
Stop renting temporary results. Invest once in a natural, lasting change and spend the next decade looking as good as you feel.
With certifications in Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery), plus fellowship training in microsurgery, Dr. Gerth brings a rare depth of expertise to the deep plane facelift, a procedure he has refined over 13+ years.
His goal is never a standard result. It is a result that makes you look like a fresher, more rested version of yourself.
Because the deep plane technique repositions deeper layers rather than pulling skin tight, the result is natural movement and a rested look, not a stretched or wind-blown appearance.
By correcting the underlying structure, a deep plane facelift typically delivers 10 to 15 years of improvement, far beyond what fillers or skin-only lifts can offer.
Candidacy is about facial structure, not just age. During your private consultation, Dr. Gerth assesses your anatomy to determine whether the timing is right for you.
Incisions are tension-free and hidden along the hairline and natural contours, allowing them to heal imperceptibly as they mature over the first year.
Most patients return to work and social activities within 4 to 6 weeks, with bruising largely resolved and sutures removed within two to three weeks.
In most cases, prior fillers do not prevent surgery. Dr. Gerth will review your history during your consultation and build a plan around it.
