In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Steven Davis breaks down one of today’s hottest topics in aesthetic surgery—the Deep Plane facelift—and explains why it’s not the only option for restoring a youthful appearance.

With everyone online buzzing about Deep Plane procedures, it’s easy to assume it’s the universal “gold standard.” But Dr. Davis shares why the best facelift is always the one tailored to your anatomy, history, lifestyle, and goals—not the one trending on social media.

He explores:

• Why Deep Plane facelifts are popular—and where they fit
• How previous procedures (from traditional facelifts to the old Lifestyle Lift) influence what’s possible now
• When a “tweak” or secondary lift may be all you need
• How weight loss medications and dramatic changes in facial volume are leading more young patients to need skin-tightening surgeries
• The importance of a personalized consultation—especially with major variability in age, health, weight changes, and skin quality

Dr. Davis emphasizes that no single technique is right for everyone. Whether you’ve had surgery years ago or are facing new skin laxity from weight loss, today’s facelift options are more customizable than ever.

As the holiday season approaches, it may be the perfect time to explore what’s truly best for your face—not the Internet’s favorite.

In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Steven Davis sits down with Physician Assistant Taylor to unpack key insights from the 2024 Global Aesthetics Conference in Miami — one of the industry’s biggest gatherings for surgical and non-surgical innovation.

From the rise of regenerative medicine and peptide therapy to the evolving “multimodality” approach that combines injectables, lasers, and biostimulatory treatments, Dr. Davis and Taylor explore how today’s most natural, long-lasting results come from blending science, sequencing, and patient health.

They also dive into:

• How peptides and GLP-1 medications are changing the conversation around functional health and cosmetic outcomes
• The best timing and sequencing for injectables, radiofrequency, and laser treatments
• Why collagen regeneration starts with nutrition, protein, and overall wellness
• The importance of “low and slow” when using GLP-1s like Ozempic and Wegovy
• How at-home skin care and consistency enhance in-office treatments

The takeaway? There’s no single magic bullet in modern aesthetics — real transformation comes from a balanced, regenerative approach that treats the whole patient, inside and out.

In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Steven Davis explores one of the most exciting shifts happening in modern aesthetics — the fusion of surgical expertise with advanced technology.

Gone are the days of choosing between a “surgery” or a “non-surgical” treatment. Today, leading plastic surgeons are combining procedures in new, innovative ways to deliver next-level results with the same — or even less — downtime.

Dr. Davis shares real examples from his operating room, including patients who combine blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) with Renuvion® skin tightening and micro-liposuction, achieving dramatic yet natural rejuvenation in a single session. He also discusses how regenerative science — like stem cells, exosomes, and growth factors — is transforming recovery and long-term results.

From facial rejuvenation to hair restoration, Dr. Davis explains how this integrated approach helps patients heal faster, look better, and enjoy results that last longer — all while maximizing the power of their own biology.

n today’s world of aesthetic medicine, the question isn’t always “fillers or facelift?” — it’s how the two can work together for the most natural, lasting results.

In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Steven Davis explains how injectable fillers and facelift surgery address different layers of the face — and why understanding those layers is essential for safe, effective rejuvenation.

Dr. Davis often hears patients express concern that fillers or nonsurgical skin-tightening treatments might make future facelift surgery more difficult. While certain procedures that use energy or create deep collagen stimulation can change tissue texture, intradermal hyaluronic acid fillers — the most commonly used type — do not interfere with facelift procedures.

That’s because these fillers target the dermis, the layer responsible for collagen and elasticity. Injected with precision, they smooth fine lines and subtly lift the skin without affecting deeper structures. As Dr. Davis describes it, “Think of intradermal filler injections as painting within the skin — polishing and plumping it — without ever interfering with what we do in a facelift.”

A facelift, on the other hand, works below the dermis to reposition and tighten underlying tissues, creating a refreshed foundation. Together, the two treatments form a powerful combination: fillers to restore the skin’s texture and volume, and a facelift to refine structure and contour.

Dr. Davis encourages patients to think of modern facial rejuvenation as a continuum — one that evolves with their needs over time. Whether through subtle injectable touch-ups or surgical artistry, the goal remains the same: to help you look as vibrant as you feel.
