In Dr. Kevin R. Hanz's own words

How Dr. Kevin R. Hanz describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.

Approach

  • In my view, the most conservative Facelift is the one that adequately treats the anatomy, not simply the one with the shortest incision
  • My goal is to restore structure and proportion rather than simply remove the greatest possible amount of tissue
  • Dr. Kevin R. Hanz, MD, designs comprehensive facial rejuvenation to refresh appearance while allowing patients to look like themselves.

Specialization

  • By addressing the deeper facial structures, I was able to restore support through the lower face, sharpen the jawline, and create a smoother transition into the neck
  • Focuses on Mommy Makeovers

Technique

  • For me, the most stable Facelift results come from correcting the layer responsible for facial descent rather than asking the skin to maintain the result
  • I performed a deep plane lower face and neck lift without any additional procedures or treatments, really focusing on restoring support, improving the jawline, and creating a smoother neck contour
  • The structural correction occurs beneath the skin, where I release and reposition the descended facial tissues as a connected unit

Technology

  • The practice observes that Quantum RF delivers faster results.

Training & credentials

  • Specializes in Plastic Surgery

Recovery guidance

  • As healing continues, the swelling improves, the jawline becomes more defined, facial volume settles, and the skin gradually becomes smoother and more even
  • Redness, swelling, temporary changes are expected, especially when surgery and laser resurfacing are combined

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Kevin R. Hanz

Sourced directly from Dr. Kevin R. Hanz's social posts and replies.

What is QuantumRF and what results can it achieve?
QuantumRF, developed by InMode, is an advanced radiofrequency treatment that can achieve fast, natural results while maintaining the patient's natural appearance.

How does significant weight loss and aging affect facial definition?
Significant weight loss can change more than just facial volume. When deeper tissues and skin lose support, the jawline and neck can become less defined, even if the patient is otherwise healthy and at a stable weight.
Source →
What is Dr. Hanz's approach to Deep Plane Lower Face and Neck Lift and what are early recovery expectations?
Dr. Hanz performs Deep Plane Lower Face and Neck Lifts as standalone procedures. This technique involves repositioning deeper tissues as a connected unit, rather than simply tightening the skin at the surface. By addressing deeper facial structures, it restores support through the lower face, sharpens the jawline, and creates a smoother transition into the neck. While 18 days post-surgery is early in the healing process, improvement in facial and neck definition can be visible, preserving natural expression. Facial contours will continue to settle and refine as healing progresses and residual swelling resolves.
Source →
What is Dr. Hanz's approach to abdominal contouring after significant weight loss?
After significant weight loss, the abdomen often presents with loose skin, residual fat, muscle separation, and a lowered or distorted pubic contour. Dr. Hanz's surgical goal is to restore structure and proportion, rather than simply removing the greatest possible amount of tissue. Depending on the patient's anatomy, he may incorporate muscle repair and selective liposuction. The procedure design is influenced by factors such as tissue redraping, previous scars, navel position, closure tension, and blood supply, as removing skin alone may not be sufficient to correct central protrusion or restore the abdomen-waist relationship.
Source →
What factors influence the durability of a facelift and how the face ages afterward?
The durability of facelift correction varies among patients. Factors such as thin skin, weak connective tissue, significant sun damage, smoking, and weight fluctuations can affect how the face continues to age after a facelift. The strength of the deeper support layers also influences long-term stability.
Source →
How does Dr. Hanz define a lasting facelift?
A lasting facelift is not defined by a face that remains unchanged, but by contours that continue to look balanced as aging progresses.
Source →
When are surface treatments added to a facelift?
Surface treatments may be added to a facelift when skin quality, pigmentation, or fine lines require separate correction beyond the structural changes of the lift.
Source →
What is Dr. Hanz's philosophy on choosing between a Mini Facelift and a more comprehensive approach?
Dr. Hanz believes that the selection of a facelift procedure should not always be based on assumptions about shorter scars, less downtime, and easier recovery. While a limited approach may be effective for early lower-face laxity, it cannot reliably correct advanced cheek descent, significant jowling, or extensive neck changes. Choosing an operation that is too limited may lead to incomplete correction or earlier recurrence. When evaluating whether a Mini Facelift can produce a stable result, he considers skin quality, tissue mobility, facial support, and the distribution of aging. In his view, the most conservative facelift is the one that adequately treats the anatomy, not simply the one with the shortest incision.
Source →
What causes persistent neck heaviness and how does Dr. Hanz approach neck contouring?
Persistent neck heaviness is not always caused by loose skin or superficial fat; deeper structures can continue to obscure the jawline even after surface tissues are tightened. Factors like platysma separation, subplatysmal fat, gland prominence, and limited chin projection each influence the cervicomental angle and require different levels of correction. When planning a Facelift & Neck Lift, Dr. Hanz distinguishes concerns above the platysma from those beneath it, as treating only the superficial layer may leave the underlying source of fullness unchanged. Achieving a refined neck contour depends on identifying which anatomical structures can be improved safely and which features should remain undisturbed.
Source →
What is the Deep Plane Facelift technique and how does it achieve stable results?
A Deep Plane Facelift should not rely on pulling the skin tighter, as excessive surface tension can flatten natural contours and create visible distortion around the ears and hairline. The structural correction occurs beneath the skin, where Dr. Hanz releases and repositions the descended facial tissues as a connected unit. This method restores cheek support, softens jowling, and improves the transition into the neck. Tissue mobility, ligament strength, facial volume, and skeletal anatomy all influence how far facial structures can be repositioned safely. Once deeper support has been restored, the skin can be redraped without carrying the primary lift. For Dr. Hanz, the most stable facelift results come from correcting the layer responsible for facial descent rather than asking the skin to maintain the result.
Source →
What are the benefits and recovery expectations for combined facial rejuvenation procedures?
Dr. Hanz often combines procedures like Deep Plane Lower Face and Neck Lift, Facial Fat Grafting, and Tetra CO2 Laser Resurfacing to address deeper facial support, volume loss, neck laxity, and changes in skin quality simultaneously. When facial surgery and laser resurfacing are performed together, redness, swelling, and temporary changes are expected during healing. As recovery progresses, definition becomes clearer, transferred volume settles, and the skin continues to improve.
Source →
How does Dr. Hanz determine if surgery or a non-surgical option is best for skin laxity?
It is a misconception that surgery is always the only solution for skin laxity. For patients with mild to moderate tissue looseness, advanced radiofrequency technology may provide meaningful improvement while avoiding a traditional surgical recovery. Dr. Hanz emphasizes that the key is understanding where minimally invasive treatments are effective and where surgery will provide a more predictable result. Every consultation begins with an honest assessment of the patient's anatomy and expectations, with treatment recommendations always prioritizing what will benefit the patient most in the long term.

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)

$1,000

Payments

1

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Kevin R. Hanz received $1,000 across 1 payment in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was Lumenis BE 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?”
