Signature treatment
The modern
Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation
A coordinated combination of facelift, neck lift, and skin resurfacing — tailored with the adjuncts each face actually needs.
A Considered Approach
Rejuvenation, when done well, is never just one procedure.
Most patients seeking meaningful, natural facial rejuvenation don't need a single isolated procedure — they benefit from a coordinated combination, planned together rather than as a series of separate surgeries. Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation is Dr. Luck's encompassing term for this approach: typically combining a deep plane facelift, deep neck lift, brow lift, and CO2 laser skin resurfacing with additional adjunct procedures such as a blepharoplasty, lip lift, or others.
The Technique
Core Components
Every comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan is built around the same coordinated foundation, refined to each patient's anatomy:
01
Deep Plane Facelift & Neck Lift
The structural foundation. Deeper facial and neck tissue is repositioned together for natural movement and a harmonious result across the midface, jawline, and neck.
02
Brow Lift
Typically included to restore balance to the upper face alongside the face and neck lift, to create a more harmonious end result.
03
Skin Resurfacing
CO2 laser resurfacing is performed alongside the surgical work to refine skin tone and texture, so the skin's quality matches its new contour.
04
Individualized Adjuncts
Blepharoplasty, lip lift, buccal fat pad reduction, earlobe reduction, facial fat grafting, and/or other adjunct procedures are added as needed, based on each patient's specific anatomy and goals, rather than offered as a one-size-fits-all package.

Inside the Procedure
Is a Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation right for you?
The honest answer is: sometimes, and sometimes not. Below is a starting framework — the final answer comes from a real conversation.
Often a Good Fit
Aging is visible across multiple areas of the face and neck, not just one
Wants a single coordinated surgical plan rather than staged, separate procedures
Generally healthy and a non-smoker
Realistic expectations and a desire for natural, harmonious results
Worth Discussing First
Concerns are limited to a single, isolated area
Prefers to start with one smaller procedure before considering more
The aim isn't to treat one feature. It's to bring the whole face back into balance.

Common Questions
Answered with candor.
Is this one procedure or several combined into one?
It's a coordinated combination, typically a facelift and neck lift together, with laser resurfacing and a brow lift, plus adjuncts like blepharoplasty or a lip lift added based on your anatomy.
Do I need all of these components?
No, the plan is built around what your individual face and neck need. Some patients need the full combination; others need fewer components.
Is this safe to combine into a single surgery?
Dr. Luck plans each combination around your individual health and anatomy during consultation; the right combination and timing is determined case by case.
