His precision and attention to detail make him one of the top plastic surgeons in Scottsdale. Indulge yourself with a facelift and regain that look and feel of youth and beauty.
Throughout your life, the skin on one’s face can become thinner and lose its elasticity. The soft-tissue in one’s face gives way to the pull of gravity and droops after time. Your cheeks may lose some of their natural volume and appear hollowed out. Even the bones in one’s face can fluctuate and lose some of their density.
Dr. Andres has the skill to ensure that every facelift looks natural, as opposed to some that wind up looking “overdone”.
