Every year there’s a new “miracle” face lift with a catchy name. But a lot of these are just clever marketing spins on the same thing. 

Dr. Koehler and Kirstin sort through the alphabet soup of face lift techniques, from mini lifts that might work for a younger crowd to powerhouse options like the lateral SMASectomy and deep plane face lift.

They cover which buzzword procedures to be cautious about, why the surgeon’s skill matters way more than the trademarked name, and the extra know-how it takes to get great results for men versus women.
If you’re wondering what’s real and what’s just branding, this one’s worth a listen.
