World renowned board certified plastic surgeon, Christian Drehsen, M.D. having recently shared his signature facial rejuvenation techniques and results with colleagues in Las Vegas, Miami, and New York, is now widely recognized for his refined and original approach to facial rejuvenation—the Coiled Purse-String Facelift, better known as the RefresherLift℠.

At the heart of the RefresherLift℠ is something truly unique: the natural self-revolumization of the upper cheeks, restoring youthful contours without artificial fullness. Guided by his philosophy of “Adding Glamour to Facial Rejuvenation,” Dr. Drehsen has further elevated this technique by incorporating a safe, focal deep-plane–assisted step, allowing the upper cheek to gently reposition over the malar eminence—re-revealing elegant, high cheekbones while preserving a completely natural look.

Beyond structure, Dr. Drehsen is especially known for addressing the subtle facial expressions that can unintentionally appear tired, sad, or tense with time. For this reason, he frequently complements facial rejuvenation with his original Dual Plane Brow Lift℠, delicately repositioning the brows to create a more open, engaging, and confident expression—without an “operated” look.

Together, these advanced yet conservative techniques are designed to produce results that are natural, youthful, and long-lasting. Often described as the “Rolls-Royce of modern face and brow lifting,” Dr. Drehsen’s holistic approach focuses not just on looking younger—but on looking more vibrant, approachable, and at ease. This philosophy has been scientifically supported through his Emoticon Effect work, demonstrating measurable improvements in social confidence and engagement after facial rejuvenation.

What truly sets the RefresherLift℠ apart?

Unlike skin-only lifts, repeated fillers, lasers, Renuvion, or external tightening devices, the Deep-Plane-Assisted RefresherLift℠ addresses the true anatomical changes of facial aging. It restores freshness and glamour without the unpredictability of fat injections or the distortions and irregular absorption associated with repeated fillers.

By working thoughtfully with the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System)—the deeper support layer of the face—Dr. Drehsen is able to achieve stronger, more natural, and longer-lasting results than skin tightening alone. His signature Coiled Purse-String technique gently gathers and repositions this layer, uniquely restoring upper-cheek volume and contour in a way that continues to age gracefully.

By combining this method with a targeted, limited deep-plane assist, Dr. Drehsen delivers elegant cheekbone definition without the flattening, stiffness, contour limitations, or increased nerve-injury risks associated with more aggressive full deep-plane procedures.

Younger women, in particular, are increasingly choosing the Deep-Plane-Assisted RefresherLift℠ as a refined, long-term alternative to years of fillers—appreciating its ability to enhance their natural beauty rather than mask or distort it.

An approach that changes more than appearance

Dr. Drehsen’s research and clinical experience consistently highlight how facial structure and expression influence perceptions of youth, vitality, and approachability. Patients frequently report not only looking refreshed—but feeling more socially confident and engaged, with meaningful improvements in quality of life.

A destination for discerning patients worldwide

Celebrities and high-profile clients seek out Dr. Drehsen for his artistry, discretion, and commitment to timeless, natural results. His private, luxury practice offers confidential access, personalized care, and an elegant recovery experience—making Florida an increasingly sought-after destination for elite cosmetic surgery once reserved for New York or Los Angeles.

Recognized internationally for his innovations, Dr. Drehsen is regularly invited to present his techniques at major aesthetic and medical conferences around the world—further reflecting the trust and respect he has earned among peers and patients alike.
