In Dr. John M. Anastasatos's own words

How Dr. John M. Anastasatos describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • Dr. John M. Anastasatos is concerned when patients are misinformed by other medical professionals about jowl treatments, specifically regarding the ineffectiveness of fillers, thread lifts, radiofrequency, or laser for lifting jowls.
  • So the technique was less important than the plastic surgeon performing the procedure
  • So it's important to me to start doing these explanations online to educate people because that's when patients can make the right choices for them
  • So even when plastic surgeons do same or similar techniques or procedures, the outcomes can be very different because the outcomes really depend on how well a certain technique is executed and how well a plastic surgeon understands the anatomy and physiology

Specialization

  • Dr. Anastasatos is a trusted expert in Beverly Hills and Athens.

Technique

  • For mild or minimal ptosis, Dr. John M. Anastasatos's practice can treat it with breast implants only, avoiding large scars, and can achieve additional breast elevation and nipple rotation with properly placed implants and an internal lift.
  • But the treatment of those reasons is surgical. The treatment is nothing else but surgical

Consultation

  • So I use this example for facelifts because it's an example I bring up a lot with my patients, but the same thing applies to all aspects of plastic surgery
  • So this is a topic that I spend a lot of time explaining during consultation to my patients
  • The practice assists patients in choosing a hand rejuvenation treatment that aligns with their specific anatomy and goals.

Results

  • For natural, long-lasting rejuvenation — not the pulled look
  • Indeed, the breast lift or mastopexy, properly done, can create breasts with beautiful projection, a teardrop shape, and the effect can be very long-lasting, and long-lasting can mean many decades

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. John M. Anastasatos

Sourced directly from Dr. John M. Anastasatos's social posts and replies.

What is High Definition Neck Liposculpting and what results can I expect?
High Definition Neck Liposculpting addresses common concerns like double chin and lack of jaw definition by removing fat and tightening neck skin. This procedure can lead to a major transformation of the entire face, resulting in more defined facial features, especially the jawline and chin, and creating a smooth, 90-degree angle transition from chin to neck for a more youthful appearance.

How long until I see results from High Definition Neck Liposculpting?
Results are typically visible around 5 months post-surgery.

What are Dr. Anastasatos' key goals and techniques for facial rejuvenation?
Dr. Anastasatos focuses on comprehensive facial rejuvenation, employing techniques such as Deep Plane SMAS Facelifts for the lower face and jawline, Midface Lifts with Malar Fat Pad Elevation for the midface, Deep Plane Neck Surgery with Platysma Plication and Repair, Corset Platysmaplasty, and Neck Liposuction. His most important goals include jowl correction, marionette line correction, tear-trough correction, cheek elevation and fullness, raising the corner of the mouth, softening naso-labial folds (laugh lines), and creating a clean jawline.

What is an Upper Lip Lift and what are its benefits?
An Upper Lip Lift is a refined surgical technique designed to shorten the distance between the nose and upper lip, restoring youthful proportions and definition to the lower face. By gently lifting the lip, the procedure improves lip contour and fullness, rolls out the natural red lip portion, and contributes to a more harmonious facial balance, delivering long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What are the options for hand rejuvenation?
Over time, hands can lose volume, making veins, tendons, bones, and joints more visible. Dr. Anastasatos offers treatments like Radiesse for hands and fat transfer to hands to restore fullness. Each option has a different approach to treatment, recovery, and duration of results, and the practice assists patients in choosing the best treatment for their specific anatomy and goals.

What does Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) address and can it be combined with other procedures?
Eyelid surgery effectively corrects drooping upper lids, puffy lower-lid bags, and hooded eye shape, producing a more energetic and youthful appearance that genuinely matches how patients feel. It can be performed as a standalone procedure or in conjunction with other facial procedures, most commonly facelift surgery or brow lift, to achieve harmonious upper-face rejuvenation.
