Facelift and Neck Lift
Among all the procedures she offers, Dr. Lee is especially passionate about facelift and neck lift surgery. For many patients, these options provide the most dramatic yet natural-looking facial rejuvenation. As the face and neck age, changes like sagging skin, deep folds, jowls, and loose neck tissue can affect not only appearance, but also confidence. A well-performed facelift and/or neck lift can restore definition, smoothness, and balance, helping patients look more youthful and refreshed.
Dr. Lee is extensively trained in all modern facelift techniques, including the deep plane facelift and SMAS facelift, which allow her to address both the surface and deeper supportive layers of the face. By tailoring her approach to each patient’s anatomy and goals, she works to avoid the “pulled” or “windblown” look of older techniques and instead create results that are elegant, harmonious, and lasting. She also pays close attention to fine details to ensure a smooth, natural contour.
When appropriate, Dr. Lee may recommend combining a facelift with a neck lift to fully rejuvenate the lower face and neckline. The neck often shows signs of aging at the same time as the face, and addressing both areas together allows for a more comprehensive, balanced result. By tightening loose muscles, refining excess fat, and smoothing sagging skin, Dr. Lee can help patients achieve a more defined jawline and graceful neck contour that enhances their overall appearance.
Dr. Lee takes time to understand what each patient wants to achieve and designs a facelift/neck lift treatment plan that enhances their features while respecting their individuality. Her ultimate goal is to deliver results that make patients look rejuvenated, not “different,” so they can enjoy renewed confidence both in photos and in daily life.
Rhinoplasty
The nose plays a central role in facial harmony, and even small adjustments can make a significant aesthetic difference. Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, can address an array of concerns and provide lifelong benefits. Dr. Lee works closely with patients to understand their goals—whether cosmetic, functional, or both. Rhinoplasty can be ideal for patients who would like to recontour a prominent nasal hump, a bulbous tip, or a variety of other cosmetic conditions. This procedure can also be helpful for patients suffering from a deviated septum and breathing difficulties caused by structural issues. Dr. Lee’s goal is to refine the nose so that it balances well with other facial features while maintaining each patient’s unique character.
Eyelid Surgery (Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty)
The eyes are often the first feature to show signs of aging, with sagging skin, puffiness, or drooping lids making patients appear tired even when they feel energetic. With upper and lower blepharoplasty, Dr. Lee can remove or reposition excess skin and fat to restore a brighter, more youthful look. She carefully tailors each procedure to achieve a refreshed appearance while preserving the natural shape and expression of the eyes.
Asian Blepharoplasty
Asian blepharoplasty is a highly specialized eyelid procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the eyes while preserving each patient’s unique ethnic features. Dr. Dami Lee specializes in this technique and brings a deep understanding of Asian eyelid anatomy, aesthetics, and cultural preferences to every procedure. Rather than creating a one-size-fits-all result, her goal is to achieve a natural-looking eyelid crease that complements the patient’s facial structure and personal vision.
This procedure may be ideal for patients who would like to create or refine an upper eyelid crease, improve eyelid symmetry, or achieve a brighter, more open-eyed appearance. Dr. Lee will carefully select the treatment technique that best aligns with the patient’s anatomy, skin thickness, and desired outcome. Throughout the process, she prioritizes subtlety, balance, and harmony to avoid an “overdone” look.
During consultation, Dr. Lee takes time to listen and educate, ensuring patients feel confident and informed. With her meticulous technique and thoughtful approach, Asian blepharoplasty can deliver refined, elegant results that feel authentic and enduring.
Ptosis Correction (Upper Eyelid)
In some cases, drooping of the upper eyelid (known as ptosis) goes beyond aesthetics and can interfere with vision. Dr. Lee offers ptosis correction to restore eyelid position and help patients achieve a better visual field. This procedure requires precision and experience, and Dr. Lee’s training allows her to provide effective outcomes that restore function without compromising appearance for many patients.
Brow Lift
A brow lift (sometimes referred to as a forehead lift) can be a powerful way to soften a heavy or furrowed brow and rejuvenate the upper face. Dr. Lee offers both open and endoscopic brow lift techniques. The endoscopic technique utilizes smaller incisions to minimize residual scarring and recovery time. Dr. Lee will customize her approach depending on each patient’s anatomy, goals, and unique needs. Whether the concern is deep forehead lines, sagging brows, or a perpetually tired expression, a brow lift can help open up the eye area and restore a more youthful, approachable look.
Osseous Genioplasty (Chin Contouring)
Chin balance is a key element of overall facial harmony. Dr. Lee offers both osseous genioplasty (bony chin reshaping) and chin implants to refine the proportions of the face. Based on her training and expertise, she often guides patients toward osseous genioplasty, which allows for precise, natural-looking changes without the use of implants. Whether the goal is to enhance projection, reduce prominence, or correct asymmetry, chin contouring can dramatically improve facial balance.
Facial Fat Grafting
Volume loss is a hallmark of facial aging, often contributing to hollow cheeks, thinning lips, or an overall tired look. Facial fat grafting offers a natural solution by using the patient’s own fat to restore youthful contours. Dr. Lee gently harvests fat from another area of the body via liposuction, purifies it, and carefully transfers it to areas of the face where volume is needed. In addition to its rejuvenating effects, fat grafting can also improve skin quality, leaving patients with a smoother, more radiant appearance. Additionally, the results of fat grafting are known to last much longer than what can be achieved with dermal fillers.
A Personalized Approach to Facial Surgery
Every face tells a story, and Dr. Lee believes each patient deserves care that respects their individuality. From the first consultation to recovery, she takes time to listen, educate, and guide patients through their treatment journey. Her approachable style and dedication to natural results can ensure that patients feel supported, informed, and confident every step of the way.
