In Dr. Harry V. Wright's own words

How Dr. Harry V. Wright describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • The practice believes in achieving natural and personalized results.
  • The practice prioritizes high standards over shortcuts in their work.
  • Usually at the time of facelift surgery, people will have a fat transfer for those areas and or maybe they'll do dermal filler following surgery
  • The practice considers every detail in their work.

Specialization

  • Dr. Harry V. Wright is a board-certified facial plastic surgeon.
  • The practice includes a Skincare Team.

Technique

  • Dr. Harry V. Wright's practice repositions the cheek area by breaking up cutaneous retaining ligaments and moving the cheek fat pad back into position.
  • We're also tightening the jawline so you can get a really tight jawline and then we're able to correct any neck laxity that's occurred over time

Technology

  • The practice uses a new Pico handpiece for Pico Toning.

Training & credentials

  • The practice has performed thousands of aesthetic procedures.

Results

  • So the things that we are achieving with the facelift surgery are lifting the cheek back up as gravity and aging happens

What are Dr. Wright's skincare recommendations by age group?
Dr. Wright emphasizes that anti-aging skincare is not one-size-fits-all, with needs changing as you age. * **20s:** Focus on prevention with daily SPF, antioxidants, gentle retinol, Hydrafacials, and light chemical peels. Early acne treatment prevents lasting pigment or scars. * **30s:** Focus on supporting collagen with microneedling, light laser treatments, chemical peels, and targeted pigment correction, while maintaining consistency with SPF, Vitamin C, retinol, and hydration. * **40s:** Focus on collagen, texture, fine lines, pores, and sun damage using IPL, Pico, ProDeep, microneedling, resurfacing treatments, and stronger corrective skincare. * **50s:** Work on firmness, hydration, pigmentation, texture, and overall rejuvenation with laser resurfacing, collagen-stimulating treatments, microneedling, IPL/Pico, and customized combination treatments. * **60s:** Focus on strengthening skin, improving elasticity, softening texture, and correcting age spots with customized laser treatments, ProDeep, Pico, gentle resurfacing, and barrier-supporting skincare. * **70s:** Focus on maintaining healthy, comfortable, glowing skin with gentle laser treatments, light resurfacing, hydration-focused facials, mild peels, and customized treatments. * **At every age:** SPF, consistency, and a plan designed specifically for your skin are crucial. It's never too early or too late to start taking care of your skin.

What is Pico Toning and what are its benefits?
Pico Toning is a gentle, low-downtime approach that uses ultra-short pulses of rapid mechanical energy (not high heat or aggressive resurfacing) to gradually break up unwanted pigmentation. It is effective for improving the appearance of unwanted pigmentation, including stubborn post-acne pigmentation, and is a great option for treating pigment in deeper skin tones. It can also be used for facial rejuvenation. Treatments are performed weekly as part of a customized series, with the exact series depending on the patient and their skin response.

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 (2024)

$246

Payments

22

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Harry V. Wright received $246 across 22 payments in 2024. 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?”
