Minimally invasive facial contouring and skin tightening that sharpens your jawline, reduces sagging, and restores definition, all without the downtime of traditional surgery.
Choosing the right provider for any facial contouring procedure is one of the most important decisions you will make. At Formation, the experience is built around precision, trust, and results that hold up over time.
Dr. Gopal Grandhige is a board-certified general surgeon and fellowship-trained specialist with over 15 years of operative experience. His training at the University of Michigan Medical School and Yale University School of Medicine gives every patient access to a surgeon who understands anatomy at its deepest level.
Formation intentionally limits surgical volume so Dr. Grandhige remains deeply involved before, during, and after every procedure. You are never rushed through a system. Every consultation is thorough, every plan is personalized, and every recovery phase is actively managed.
While Formation treats patients of all genders, the practice is particularly recognized for male facial and body contouring. Jawline sculpting and neck refinement for men require a distinct artistic approach that preserves masculine structure, and Dr. Grandhige brings that expertise to every FaceTite procedure.
Dr. Grandhige’s background extends well beyond cosmetic technique. His fellowship training in burn surgery, critical care, and minimally invasive surgery means he approaches every patient with a heightened focus on safety, tissue healing, and long-term structural integrity. That depth is what separates Formation from volume-driven plastic surgery practices.
Patients who choose Formation for FaceTite in Lowry Park Central are not looking for the loudest marketing or the fastest turnaround. They want a surgeon whose judgment, restraint, and clinical depth they can trust with their appearance. Learn more about what drives us on our philosophy page.
From your first phone call to your final follow-up visit, every step is designed to feel personal, informed, and unhurried. Here is what your experience looks like.
Dr. Grandhige personally evaluates your facial anatomy, discusses your goals, and explains whether FaceTite, neck and jawline contouring, or another approach is the right fit. Honesty comes first. If a different treatment better serves your outcome, he will tell you.
You receive structured guidance on nutrition, protein intake, supplements like Arnica and Bromelain, and recovery logistics. Preparation is treated as part of the procedure, not an afterthought.
FaceTite is performed in Formation’s office using local anesthesia and an oral sedative for comfort. Through tiny incisions beneath the chin and behind the ears, radiofrequency energy tightens skin, stimulates collagen, and removes excess fat. Most treatments take about one hour.
Recovery is guided, not passive. You receive scheduled follow-ups, compression garment instructions, and lymphatic support recommendations. Most patients return to work and social activities within one week and see significant improvement by three months.
At Formation, FDA-cleared radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology is paired with Renuvion skin tightening when appropriate. This combination helps contour the skin over the underlying muscle and bone structure for natural, long-lasting definition. Results continue to improve for six to twelve months as collagen production increases, and they typically last five to seven years with proper maintenance.
Patients do not come to Formation looking for dramatic, obvious changes. They want to look sharper, more rested, and more like themselves. These stories reflect that philosophy.
A professional in his 40s felt his neck and jawline made him look heavier and older than he actually was. Despite being fit, this area never responded to weight loss. After targeted neck contouring with FaceTite, colleagues commented that he looked more rested and energized. He told us his face finally matched the rest of his body, and he smiles more and gets in pictures now.
A physician who trained regularly and maintained a disciplined diet felt frustrated that his definition never matched his effort. After high-definition liposculpture and contouring at Formation, he sent us a photo in a Superman costume at Halloween, expressing how happy he was to finally enjoy his body in all the sunny days Florida offers.

Facial Harmonization Step 2
It takes more than one treatment and often more than one treatment session to accomplish facial harmony and balance.
Here’s a look at step 2 in the journey for our surgical coordinator Hanna.
She wanted to address asymmetry and fullness in the lower face. To accomplish this we’ve started with Botox in the masseter to slim the jaw, and create a more feminine, heart shaped face. Now for step 2 we’re placing PDO lifting threads to enhance definition around the jawline without adding volume.

The power of a profile transformation. 🔥
For this patient, we combined PDO Lifting Threads and advanced chin/jawline filler to completely redefine his lower face. By strategically lifting the mid-to-lower face and sculpting the jaw, we didn’t just enhance one feature—we elevated his entire facial appearance.
An incredible, natural-looking result that brings balance and confidence from every angle.
Note: Minor bunching or puckering is completely normal immediately following a PDO thread lift. The slight bunching visible in the after photo will fully subside on its own over the next 2-4 weeks as the threads settle.

Below are answers to the questions we hear most often from patients considering FaceTite in Lowry Park Central and the greater Tampa area.
FaceTite is a minimally invasive skin tightening procedure that uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology. A small probe is inserted beneath the skin through tiny incisions, delivering controlled energy that melts excess fat, contracts collagen fibers, and stimulates new collagen production. The result is a tighter, more contoured jawline and neck without the scars or extended recovery of a traditional facelift.
Most patients enjoy their results for five to seven years. Longevity depends on genetics, skincare habits, sun protection, and maintaining a stable weight. Collagen remodeling continues for up to twelve months after the procedure, with the most significant tightening visible around the three to six month mark.
Most patients return to work and social activities within three to five days. A compression garment is worn for the first few weeks to support healing. Mild swelling and bruising are normal and typically resolve within one to two weeks. Dr. Grandhige provides structured recovery guidance including nutrition, compression, and follow-up visits.
FaceTite typically depending on the treatment areas, the extent of skin laxity, and whether it is combined with other procedures like neck liposuction. Formation provides a personalized cost estimate during your consultation after evaluating your specific anatomy and goals.
Ideal candidates are generally between their mid-20s and mid-50s with mild to moderate skin laxity around the jawline, neck, or lower face. You should be in good overall health and at a stable weight. During your consultation, Dr. Grandhige will assess your skin quality, facial structure, and goals to determine whether FaceTite is the best approach for you.
If you are considering FaceTite in Lowry Park Central, FL, the next step is a personal consultation with Dr. Grandhige. No pressure, no scripts. Just honest guidance from a board-certified surgeon who puts your goals first.
