In Dr. Emily Hrisomalos's own words

How Dr. Emily Hrisomalos describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • I’ve always believed that the best facial plastic surgery allows others to better notice the person, not the procedure
  • Dr. Emily Hrisomalos generally recommends doing both face lifting and neck lifting together.
  • I believe understanding the why behind a surgical recommendation is just as important as the recommendation itself

Technique

  • A thoughtfully selected combination of upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, fat grafting, and CO2 laser resurfacing allowed us to improve both the deeper structural anatomy, subtly enhance volume, and optimize skin quality (which was already excellent)

Training & credentials

  • Specializes in Facial Plastic Surgery

Consultation

  • When patients pursue surgery for aging or facial rejuvenation, Dr. Emily Hrisomalos almost always discusses with them why she recommends treating the face and neck together.
  • We’d love to guide you through the consultation process!
  • If you’re trying to decide between a facelift and a neck lift, this is a conversation I have with patients almost every day

Results

  • One of the things I love most about this procedure is that it brings back the focus to each patient’s unique features
  • Dr. Emily Hrisomalos states that treating the face and neck together yields a better, longer-lasting, and more natural result.

About

Dr. Emily Hrisomalos is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and otolaryngologist practicing in Zionsville, Indiana. She specializes in both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures of the face, including rhinoplasty, facelift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, otoplasty, facial fat transfer, and CO2 laser resurfacing. Dr. Hrisomalos believes that the best facial plastic surgery allows others to better notice the person, not the procedure, aiming to reveal existing beauty rather than changing a person's identity. Her philosophy emphasizes that significant positive results often come from several subtle changes working together, creating an outcome that is subtle, balanced, and harmonious with natural features. She notes that otoplasty is a high-impact procedure that brings focus back to unique features, and upper blepharoplasty can brighten eyes and restore a rested, natural appearance. Dr. Hrisomalos frequently recommends facelifts and neck lifts together for the most natural, balanced results, and believes understanding the 'why' behind a surgical recommendation is as important as the recommendation itself. The practice also offers Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Mist to support skin health, particularly after treatments.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Emily Hrisomalos

Sourced directly from Dr. Emily Hrisomalos's social posts and replies.

What is Dr. Hrisomalos's approach to Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)?
Dr. Hrisomalos considers Otoplasty a high-impact procedure with a relatively quick recovery, often performed on patients in their 20s, 30s, and beyond. She loves that it brings focus back to a patient’s unique features. Before surgery, attention is often drawn to prominent ears, leading patients to unconsciously adapt hairstyles or camera angles. After otoplasty, the eyes naturally connect with the person, allowing features like the eyes, jawline, and overall facial structure to take center stage. A favorite outcome for Dr. Hrisomalos is when patients stop thinking about adapting their appearance due to ear prominence.

What are the benefits and characteristics of Upper Blepharoplasty with Dr. Hrisomalos?
Dr. Hrisomalos considers Upper Blepharoplasty one of facial plastic surgery’s 'true hidden gems'. It is a quick procedure with a quick recovery that can brighten the eyes, restore a more rested appearance, and subtly refresh the entire face. The results are incredibly natural, with people typically noticing a refreshed appearance rather than signs of surgery.
Source →
What is Dr. Hrisomalos's approach to Facelift and Neck Lift procedures?
Dr. Hrisomalos frequently discusses the decision between a facelift and a neck lift with patients, often recommending performing them together approximately 99% of the time. She emphasizes that a neck lift by itself, while sounding less invasive, is not necessarily the better operation. The focus is always on determining what will create the most natural, balanced, and harmonious outcome, rather than simply choosing one procedure over the other or prioritizing the least invasive option.
Source →
What combination procedures does Dr. Hrisomalos use for eyelid and facial rejuvenation?
Dr. Hrisomalos utilizes a thoughtfully selected combination of upper and lower blepharoplasty, facial fat transfer, and CO₂ laser resurfacing to address both deeper structural changes of aging and the skin itself. This approach allows her to improve deeper structural anatomy, subtly enhance volume, and optimize skin quality. The combined procedures aim for brightening, softening, and a refreshed appearance that feels completely natural.

What is Dr. Hrisomalos's approach to nasal surgery for airway obstruction and aesthetic balance?
Dr. Hrisomalos addresses nasal airway obstruction caused by structural issues like septal deviation, airway crowding, or sports injuries. The initial goal is often to improve breathing, but restoring nasal function also presents an opportunity to restore facial balance. She emphasizes that improving internal nasal support and optimizing external nasal contours often go hand in hand, and these procedures are strategically executed to preserve each patient's unique features.
Source →
What is Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Mist and how does Dr. Hrisomalos recommend it?
Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Mist is one of the newest skincare products offered by the practice. It's an advanced hypochlorous acid mist designed to support the skin barrier, calm redness, reduce irritation, and promote a healthier skin environment. It's gentle enough for daily use and is a wonderful addition to many skincare routines, especially for skin that feels dry, irritated, inflamed, or after treatments, workouts, or travel. It helps calm and soothe the skin, supports its natural healing process, and is safe for all skin types. The practice offers consultations to determine if it's suitable for a patient's routine.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$16

Payments

1

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Emily Hrisomalos received $16 across 1 payment in 2025. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

What areas of care does Dr. Emily Hrisomalos cater to?
Dr. Hrisomalos specializes in facial plastic surgery and otolaryngology. Her areas of care include both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures of the face, such as rhinoplasty, facelifts, neck lifts, and eyelid surgery. She also addresses general ENT concerns as an otolaryngologist. Dr. Hrisomalos believes that the best facial plastic surgery allows others to better notice the person, not the procedure, aiming to reveal existing beauty rather than changing a person's identity or creating new beauty. Her philosophy emphasizes that the biggest difference in aesthetic results often comes from several subtle changes working together, rather than from one dramatic change. The overall result should remain subtle, balanced, and entirely harmonious with natural features, carefully enhancing beautiful anatomy. She believes understanding the 'why' behind a surgical recommendation is just as important as the recommendation itself, and that the best treatment plan prioritizes creating the most harmonious, natural-looking outcome over being the least invasive. She also states that the only 'right' time for a procedure is whenever it feels right to the patient. Procedures performed by the practice can create the appearance of having gotten more sleep.
