Lifting and the face (114)

Harmonious ageing deserves rejuvenation in the same spirit: restore without transformingThis patient presented a typical picture of periorbital and facial ageing: a marked hollow of the upper eyelid, bags and dark circles in the lower eyelid, a global loss of volume and wrinkles linked to elastosis…
Endoscopic brow lift or ponytail lift: what is the difference?Both use endoscopy to lift the upper part of the face, but their logic is not the same. The endoscopic brow lift is a targeted procedure.
Rejuvenating the eyes: my (tailor-made) approachEye rejuvenation is often reduced to blepharoplasty: removing excess skin or bags under the eyes. In oculoplasty, I take a holistic approach to the eyes, from the nose to the forehead.
The excitement around the endoscopic brow repositioning
Upper blepharoplasty vs brow lift: the most common confusion“Doctor, my eyelids feel heavy, I need skin removed.” This is the number one request in consultation. Yet… it’s not always the right answer. In many cases, the issue isn’t excess skin but a brow that has dropped over time.
The severe look due to inter brow wrinkles
Consultation is a first analysisFor me, the consultation is a time for analysis before it is a time for solutions. There are two questions I ask very frequently.
Global facial rejuvenation in one procedure : 4 hands surgeryA harmonious approach to the face as a whole — performed in a single surgery, with two specialists working together.
Sometimes it’s not the eyelid… it’s the browMany patients come in asking for an upper blepharoplasty, believing the eyelid is “heavy.” But very often, the real cause is different: the brow has dropped, creating the illusion of excess upper-lid skin.
Endoscopic lift : lifting tissues, not pulling skinThe key idea behind an endoscopic lift is repositioning tissues, not stretching the skin. Unlike a traditional forehead lift, an endoscopic brow lift (or ponytail lift) is performed sub-periosteally, en bloc, across the upper third of the…
Endoscopic lift: the key role of the periosteumTo understand how an endoscopic brow lift durably raises the eyebrow, you need to understand one thing: We work under the periosteum. The periosteum is a membrane that covers the bone.
Brow repositioning is different for men or women

The eyes and the eyelids (199)

Under eye bags after ha injections
I’m 28, i have dark circles and dehydrated skin, what can i do ?
Why i no longer inject hyaluronic acid into the tear troughI was one of the first to do it — 30 years ago. I stopped 25 years ago. Five years were enough. Too many disappointing results, too many unsatisfied patients. When a technique accumulates that many complications, it’s not a good technique.
Fat grafting is not fillerHyaluronic acid and autologous fat have nothing in common. Not in their mechanism of action, not in their tissue behavior, and not in their long-term results. Hyaluronic acid is a passive implant. It is deposited in the subcutaneous layer.
What my patients often say after surgeryI don’t collect compliments. But there’s one thing I hear over and over again, and it sums up all my work: “People tell me I look rested.” Not “People tell me I’ve had surgery.” Not “You can tell I’ve done something.” Just: “You look…
Rejuvenate ≠ remove. sometimes, you have to add volumeWhen we think of “eye surgery,” we often imagine that something will be removed. Skin. Fat. Excess tissue. But aging around the eyes isn’t just about excess. It’s also about loss. Over time, we lose volume around the eyes.
Blepharoplasty scar does not show !
My goal : to make sure no one notices you had surgery“Above all, Doctor, I don’t want anyone to notice that I’ve had anything done.” That’s the phrase I hear most often in my practice. And it’s exactly my philosophy. My job isn’t to transform you.
How long does under-eye fat grafting last?Under-eye fat grafting is a highly precise procedure. The fat is defibrosed and injected using very fine micro-cannulas (≈0.7 mm), allowing accurate work in this delicate area.
What happens to the fat after lipofilling?It all depends on the area treated. Fat injected into the face and under-eye area does not behave in the same way as fat injected into the breasts or buttocks. Large amounts of fat are injected into the breasts or buttocks.
The malar area plays a key role in dark circlesDark circles are often referred to as a problem localized under the eye. In reality, the malar area plays a fundamental role. Why? Because the malar area provides natural support for the dark circles.
Why is the eye area often the first to show signs of aging?The eye area is often the first part of the face to betray the passage of time. This is an extremely delicate area: the skin on the eyelids is much thinner than on the rest of the face.

Fat and aesthetic medicine (125)

The question no one asks in consultation — and should“In ten years, will this result hold?” It is an essential question. Because there is a fundamental difference in the nature of what we inject. Autologous fat is living tissue. Once grafted and vascularized, it integrates into the face.
Two tools. two intentionsBotox and dermabotox use the same molecule — botulinum toxin. But they don’t share the same purpose, and confusing them means missing both. Classic botox is injected deep, into the muscle.
Lips that age wellThe question I always ask patients who want more beautiful lips: in ten years, what do you want to look like? Hyaluronic acid in the lips delivers immediate, visible, often satisfying results. But it reabsorbs. It gets re-injected.
Let’s talk about hyaluronic acid
Lipofilling vs. fillers : different logic•⁠ ⁠Lipofilling uses your own fat: a natural material that integrates into tissues like a true graft. It also brings stem cells and growth factors, can improve skin quality, and ages with you.
Fat injections can be done under local anesthesia but general anesthesia is more comfortable for the patient as well…
Nasolabial folds: why do they appear?Nasolabial folds are initially genuine expression lines. They appear when we smile: each time the muscles contract, the skin folds until it creates a break in the skin.
Lipofilling: why fat survival depends mostly on techniqueSuccessful fat grafting isn’t just about the patient — it’s about how the fat is handled and reinjected. Fat that’s been overly traumatized (suctioned under high pressure or injected in large boluses) won’t survive well.
Can botox correct an asymmetrical face ?
Aging with your own fat means aging in harmonyUnlike synthetic fillers, autologous fat is a living tissue. Once grafted, part of the fat cells reconnect to the blood supply and regain full vitality.
Did you know? Botox isn’t just for smoothing wrinklesIt’s also a recognized medical treatment for chronic migraines and certain tension headaches.
Hyaluronidase: the stress-free solution for fillersSometimes, a filler may be too bulky, misplaced, or simply no longer what you want. Good news: there’s a quick solution hyaluronidase. This enzyme dissolves hyaluronic acid within a few hours.

Surgery day ! · April 16, 2026
Why do i sometimes say no ?Saying no is probably the most important thing I do during a consultation. No, because the outcome won’t meet your expectations. No, because the procedure you’re asking for isn’t the one you need. No, because the timing isn’t right.
