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.

Frequently Asked Questions
A full abdominoplasty addresses excess skin and muscle separation in both the upper and lower abdomen. The incision runs from hip to hip below the bikini line, and the navel is typically repositioned. A mini tummy tuck uses a shorter incision and focuses only on the area below the belly button. Dr. Grandhige will recommend the best approach based on your anatomy and goals.
Most patients return to work within 10 to 14 days and resume exercise without restrictions at six weeks. Swelling continues to improve over three to six months, with final results visible around six to twelve months.
Abdominoplasty is a contouring procedure, not a weight loss solution. It removes excess skin and repairs muscle separation but is not designed to reduce overall body weight. Ideal candidates are at or near their goal weight before surgery.
Absolutely. Formation specializes in male body contouring, and many of our abdominoplasty patients are men. The surgical approach for men focuses on creating a flat, athletic midsection without feminizing curves.
Cost varies based on the type of procedure, whether liposuction is included, facility fees, and anesthesia. Formation provides a detailed cost estimate during your consultation. We also offer financing options.
