Regeneris has announced the launch of Flexlift™, an innovative face and neck rejuvenation procedure developed by Dr. Edwin Ishoo, a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon with over 30 years of experience. The procedure, performed under local anesthesia in an office setting, aims to provide dramatic, natural-looking results with significantly reduced downtime compared to traditional surgical facelifts.
Flexlift™ is designed to address the early signs of aging by correcting facial tissue laxity and volume loss. The technique involves a modified multi-plane lift and midface fat volumization, tailored to each patient's anatomy and aesthetic goals. By focusing on targeted structural readjustments of the lower face and neck rather than wide tissue dissection, the procedure aims to reduce swelling, bruising, and the risk of nerve injury while preserving a natural appearance. Dr. Ishoo notes, 'Flexlift™ delivers refreshed, natural-looking and long-lasting results comparable to a full-facelift without the downtime, cost, or risks associated with traditional facelift surgery usually in less than two hours.'
The procedure combines a face and neck lift into one comprehensive operation, along with selective fat reduction and augmentation. Key facial retaining ligaments are released, elevated, and resuspended to restore youthful proportions. Fat grafting, typically harvested from the patient's abdomen or inner thigh, can be incorporated to restore midface volume. The procedure is customizable, making it suitable for individuals in their 40s to 60s who seek meaningful correction of the mid-face, jawline, and neck.
Benefits of Flexlift™ include hidden incisions, a social recovery time of 10-14 days (compared to 3-4 weeks for standard facelifts), and affordability due to the in-office setting. The procedure typically takes under two hours and can be combined with other treatments such as eyelid lifts or LASER resurfacing. Patients may maintain results for up to ten years, though lifestyle factors like sun exposure and smoking can affect longevity.
Dr. Ishoo emphasizes that Flexlift™ is a flexible approach: 'The goal is not simply tightening the skin. Flexlift™ allows us to restore the underlying support structures and youthful proportions and contour of the face while tailoring the operation to the patient’s anatomy and recovery timeline.' The addition of Flexlift™ expands Regeneris' clinical offerings into facial plastic surgery, complementing its existing focus on regenerative medicine, aesthetic treatments, and wellness care. The procedure will be offered exclusively at the Regeneris clinic in Westwood, serving patients in greater Boston and New England.
Individuals interested in learning more can contact Regeneris for a consultation. The launch of Flexlift™ represents a significant advancement in office-based facial rejuvenation, providing an effective alternative for those seeking to reverse aging signs without the risks and downtime of traditional surgery.
