Dr. Jon Mendelsohn is a gifted Cincinnati facial plastic surgeon who has helped thousands of facelift patients achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

He uses the most advanced techniques in his Advanced Lift facelifting procedure to help patients erase the signs of aging — including deep folds and sagging skin, jowls, and neck. The results of this face lift technique create a natural and more refreshed appearance.

Upper Blepharoplasty (Upper Eyelid Lift)

Upper blepharoplasty, commonly known as an upper eyelid lift, offers several aesthetic and functional benefits. Primarily, this surgical procedure addresses drooping or sagging upper eyelids, which can not only contribute to a tired or aged appearance but can also obstruct vision in severe cases.

By removing excess skin, fat, and tissue from the upper eyelids, the procedure can rejuvenate the eyes, creating a more youthful and refreshed look. Additionally, improving the eyelid’s contour can enhance the symmetry of the face, leading to increased self-confidence and a more positive self-image.

Lower Blepharoplasty (Lower Eyelid Lift)

A lower blepharoplasty, or lower eyelid lift, is designed to address issues such as under-eye bags, puffiness, and wrinkles, which can contribute to a tired or aged appearance.

By removing excess skin, fat, and tissue from the lower eyelids, a lower eyelid lift can rejuvenate the area, creating a smoother and more youthful contour. This results in a refreshed and more vibrant appearance that can enhance overall facial harmony and symmetry. Additionally, lower blepharoplasty can improve the appearance of dark circles under the eyes, further brightening and rejuvenating the face.

Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)

Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a nose job, offers a multitude of benefits both aesthetically and functionally. Whether it’s reducing a prominent dorsal hump, refining a bulbous tip, or straightening a crooked nose, rhinoplasty can significantly improve the appearance of the nose, leading to increased self-confidence and a more positive self-image.

Functionally, rhinoplasty can also correct structural issues that may obstruct breathing, such as a deviated septum or narrow nasal passages, thereby improving airflow and overall respiratory function. Additionally, rhinoplasty can have profound psychological benefits, as it often helps individuals feel more comfortable and satisfied with their appearance, leading to improved quality of life and increased social confidence.

Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery or ear pinning, offers a range of benefits both cosmetically and functionally. Primarily, this surgical procedure is aimed at correcting protruding or misshapen ears, helping to improve facial symmetry and balance. By reshaping the ears and bringing them closer to the head, otoplasty can enhance the overall appearance of the face, leading to increased self-confidence and a more positive self-image, especially for individuals who have been self-conscious about their ears.

Beyond cosmetic improvements, otoplasty can also address functional issues such as correcting ear deformities that may interfere with hearing or cause discomfort when wearing glasses or helmets. By restoring a more natural contour to the ears, otoplasty can improve both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the ears, ultimately enhancing quality of life for individuals seeking a more harmonious and balanced facial appearance.

Forehead Lift

A forehead lift, also known as a brow lift, offers numerous benefits both aesthetically and functionally. Primarily, this surgical procedure targets the upper portion of the face, addressing sagging or drooping skin, deep forehead wrinkles, and frown lines.

By lifting and tightening the skin and tissues of the forehead and brow area, a forehead lift can create a smoother, more youthful appearance, reducing the signs of aging and restoring a refreshed look to the face. Additionally, lifting the brow can open up the eyes and raise the eyebrows to a more desirable position, which can help improve facial symmetry and overall harmony.

Functionally, a forehead lift can alleviate tension headaches and improve vision by lifting sagging skin that may be obstructing the upper eyelids. Overall, a forehead lift can enhance both appearance and comfort, leading to increased confidence and a more positive self-image.

Facial Liposculpture (Facial Liposuction)

Facial liposculpture offers a range of benefits for individuals seeking to refine and contour their facial features. This minimally invasive procedure targets localized areas of excess fat deposits in the face, such as under the chin, along the jawline, or in the cheeks, allowing for precise sculpting and refinement of facial contours.

Facial liposculpture can enhance facial definition, creating a more sculpted and youthful appearance. Additionally, the procedure can also help address concerns such as a double chin or chubby cheeks, leading to improved facial symmetry and balance.

Overall, facial liposculpture offers a safe and effective way to achieve a more contoured and defined facial profile, leading to increased self-confidence and a more youthful aesthetic.

Chin Implants (Augmentation)

A chin implant can be a beneficial procedure for individuals seeking to enhance the balance and proportions of their facial features. One of the primary reasons to consider a chin implant is to address a weak or receding chin, which can often create a lack of definition in the lower face and contribute to an unbalanced profile.

The procedure can augment the projection and shape of the chin, resulting in improved facial harmony and symmetry. Additionally, a chin implant can help define the jawline and provide better support for the soft tissues of the lower face, ultimately leading to a more youthful and attractive appearance. Furthermore, for those who may feel self-conscious about their chin’s appearance, a chin implant can offer a permanent solution that enhances facial contours and boosts self-confidence.

Overall, a chin implant can be a valuable option for individuals looking to achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile.

Scar Revision

Scar revision procedures are sought for a variety of reasons, primarily to improve the appearance of scars resulting from surgery, injury, or previous procedures. These interventions aim to minimize the visibility of scars, making them less noticeable or more aesthetically pleasing.

Scar revision can be particularly beneficial for scars that are raised, depressed, discolored, or otherwise conspicuous, which may cause self-consciousness or dissatisfaction with one’s appearance. Additionally, scar revision may also enhance physical comfort and functionality, especially in cases where scars restrict movement or cause discomfort.

Overall, scar revision procedures offer individuals the opportunity to achieve smoother, more natural-looking skin and restore confidence in their appearance.

Snoring Procedures (Coblation)

Snoring is a simple phenomenon that can turn into a complex problem. While you sleep, the muscles at the back of your throat relax, causing the soft palate to partially block your air passages. As you breathe, the air from your mouth or nose tries to pass around the blockage, resulting in the rasps and rattles we know as snoring. When the air passages become more blocked, the snoring gets worse- and so does the annoyance.

A snoring procedure may be pursued for individuals experiencing chronic snoring that disrupts their sleep quality or affects the well-being of themselves or their partners. Additionally, addressing snoring can enhance daytime alertness, productivity, and overall quality of life by ensuring more restful and rejuvenating sleep. Overall, seeking a snoring procedure can lead to significant improvements in both physical health and overall well-being.

Mid-Facelift (Cheek Lift)

A mid-facelift, also known as a cheek lift, offers several benefits for individuals seeking facial rejuvenation. By targeting the middle portion of the face, including the cheeks and under-eye area, this procedure can effectively address sagging skin, deepening nasolabial folds, and a hollowed appearance.

One of the key advantages of a mid-facelift is its ability to provide natural-looking results with minimal scarring and downtime compared to traditional facelifts. By lifting and repositioning the underlying tissues, a mid-facelift can restore youthful contours, enhance cheek volume, and create a more refreshed, rested appearance.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation surgery offers a variety of physical and cosmetic benefits.

From a physical standpoint, it can enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts, providing a more proportionate and youthful appearance. This procedure can boost self-confidence and body image, particularly for individuals who feel self-conscious about their breast size or shape. Additionally, breast augmentation can address asymmetry and restore volume lost due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging.

Emotionally, many patients report feeling more comfortable in their own skin and experiencing improved satisfaction with their appearance following breast augmentation. Overall, this cosmetic procedure can empower individuals to feel more confident and content with their body.

Breast Reduction

Breast reduction surgery offers both physical and psychological benefits.

Physically, reduction surgery can alleviate discomfort such as back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by the weight of large breasts, as well as skin irritation and difficulty finding properly fitting clothing. Additionally, breast reduction can improve posture and mobility, enhancing overall physical comfort and well-being.

From a psychological perspective, breast reduction surgery can also help boost self-confidence and body image. Many individuals report feeling a sense of relief and increased satisfaction with their appearance following the procedure.

Mommy Makeover

Mommy makeovers are a combination of surgical procedures designed to restore the bust and figure a mother had prior to pregnancy.

Various areas are targeted during the makeover process. Common procedures include:

Breast Lift or reshaping, Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty), Liposuction, Thigh Lift, Brazilian Butt Lift.

We focus on providing the safest mommy makeover Cincinnati patients will find. Each procedure is timed and carried out based on the specific goals a patient has in mind.

Liposculpture

Liposculpture, a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure, offers numerous benefits.

It contours and reshapes the body by removing excess fat deposits, resulting in a more defined and sculpted appearance. Unlike traditional liposuction, liposculpture allows for precise targeting of specific areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, or arms, with minimal scarring and downtime.

This procedure not only enhances physical aesthetics but also boosts self-confidence and body image.

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)

Male breast reduction, also known as gynecomastia surgery, offers significant benefits for men struggling with enlarged breast tissue. This procedure effectively reduces excess fat and glandular tissue in the chest area, resulting in a flatter, more masculine chest contour.

Beyond improving physical appearance, male breast reduction enhances self-confidence and body image, alleviating feelings of embarrassment or self-consciousness associated with gynecomastia. By restoring a more proportionate and masculine chest contour, this surgery can positively impact various aspects of a man’s life, from clothing choices to social interactions, ultimately boosting overall quality of life and self-esteem.

Abdominoplasty

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, offers numerous benefits for individuals seeking to achieve a flatter and more toned abdominal contour.

This surgical procedure removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles, resulting in a smoother and firmer midsection. Beyond aesthetic enhancement, abdominoplasty can alleviate issues such as abdominal sagging and stretched skin, often caused by pregnancy, significant weight loss, or aging.

By restoring a more youthful and proportionate silhouette, abdominoplasty can boost self-confidence and body image. Moreover, improved abdominal contouring can enhance physical comfort, posture, and clothing fit, contributing to an overall sense of well-being and satisfaction with one’s appearance.

Smart Graft Hair Transplants

A hair transplant procedure offers several notable benefits for individuals experiencing hair loss or thinning. By transplanting healthy hair follicles from donor areas to areas of baldness or thinning, the procedure restores natural-looking hair growth.

This results in a fuller and more youthful appearance, enhancing overall self-esteem and confidence. Unlike temporary solutions like topical treatments or wigs, a hair transplant provides a permanent solution to hair loss, requiring minimal maintenance once the transplanted hair has fully grown in.

Additionally, the transplanted hair behaves like natural hair, allowing individuals to style and care for it as they would their original hair. Overall, a hair transplant can significantly improve both appearance and quality of life for those affected by hair loss.

Hair Loss Procedures

Hair loss procedures encompass a range of treatments aimed at addressing various causes of hair loss and promoting hair regrowth.

The choice of procedure depends on factors such as the underlying cause of hair loss, the extent of hair loss, and individual preferences.

Some of the hair loss procedures we perform are scalp reductions, strip methods (follicular unit transplantation), punch grafts, neograft, smartgraft and artas robot.

Follicular Transplant (Hair Transplant)

A follicular transplant offers several significant benefits for individuals experiencing hair loss. By transplanting healthy hair follicles from donor areas to areas of baldness or thinning, the procedure restores natural-looking hair growth.

This results in a fuller and more youthful appearance, enhancing overall self-esteem and confidence. Unlike temporary solutions like topical treatments or wigs, a follicular transplant provides a permanent solution to hair loss, requiring minimal maintenance once the transplanted hair has fully grown in. Additionally, the transplanted hair behaves like natural hair, allowing individuals to style and care for it as they would their original hair.

Overall, a follicular transplant can significantly improve both appearance and quality of life for those affected by hair loss.

LaserCap for Hair Loss

Lasercap therapy offers a non-invasive and convenient solution for individuals experiencing hair loss. By utilizing low-level laser therapy (LLLT), lasercaps stimulate hair follicles, promoting increased blood flow and nutrient delivery to the scalp, which in turn encourages hair growth.

One of the key advantages of lasercap treatment is its portability, allowing users to undergo therapy comfortably at home or while on the go. Additionally, it is a pain-free and relatively quick procedure, typically requiring only a few sessions per week.

With consistent use, lasercap therapy has shown promising results in halting hair loss, improving hair density, and promoting thicker, healthier hair growth, making it an appealing option for those seeking to address their hair loss concerns.
