A stronger jawline and a rested, natural face for men who want to look like themselves, only better.
Masculine Results, Never Pulled
Male Facelift in Dallas
A male facelift restores the defined jawline and clean contours that age, gravity, and weight changes wear away, without the tight, windswept, or feminized look men fear most. Dr. Jejurikar’s goal is simple: people should notice you look sharp and rested, not that you had work done.
Men are different facelift patients. Thicker skin, a heavier facial structure, and a beard all change how the operation should be planned. The sideburn has to stay where it belongs, beard-bearing skin cannot be pulled toward the ear, and the lift has to strengthen the jaw rather than soften it.
What a Male Facelift Treats
- Jowls that blur the jawline
- Loose skin along the jaw and lower face
- Deep folds between the nose and mouth
- Laxity in the neck, usually treated together with a neck lift
How Dr. Jejurikar Approaches the Male Face
Dr. Jejurikar lifts and repositions the deeper tissues of the face, not just the skin, so the result looks natural and lasts. The specific technique is matched to your anatomy and goals at consultation. Learn more about his facelift and SMAS facelift techniques.
- Incisions: planned around the ear and hairline to hide with short haircuts
- Sideburn and hairline: preserved in their natural position
- Beard: kept on the face where it grows, not pulled behind the ear

Male Facelift FAQ
How is a male facelift different from a female facelift?
Men have thicker skin, a richer blood supply, and a beard. Dr. Jejurikar places incisions to preserve the sideburn and hairline, keeps beard-bearing skin in its natural position, and lifts in a direction that defines the jaw rather than rounding the face.
Will the scars show with short hair?
Incisions follow the natural creases in front of and behind the ear and are placed with short haircuts in mind. Once healed, they are typically well hidden, even with a close cut.
What about my beard and sideburns?
Preserving a natural sideburn and keeping beard growth where it belongs are part of the plan from the start. Most men shave and grow their beards normally after healing.
How much time off work will I need?
Most men return to desk work in about one to two weeks. Bruising and swelling settle over several weeks, and hard workouts are phased back in after about four to six weeks.
Should I get a neck lift at the same time?
Most men who are good facelift candidates also benefit from a neck lift, because the jawline and neck age together. Dr. Jejurikar will tell you whether you need both or whether a male neck lift alone is enough.
