Gene K. Lee, MD, MPH

Facial Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, CA

The face is often the first feature people notice, which is why so many individuals seek facial plastic surgery to enhance their natural beauty, restore youthful contours, or correct long-standing concerns. At LA MÔEM PLASTIC SURGERY in Beverly Hills, Dr. Gene K. Lee offers a full range of facial procedures tailored to bring out each patient’s best features. Whether you’re looking to refresh your appearance, refine facial symmetry, or recover from trauma or skin cancer treatment, Dr. Lee delivers personalized care using advanced techniques and artistic precision.

Below, we explore the most common facial plastic surgery procedures performed by Dr. Lee.

Also known as blepharoplasty, eyelid surgery rejuvenates the upper and/or lower eyelids by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle. It’s ideal for patients experiencing droopy lids, under-eye bags, or a perpetually tired appearance. Dr. Lee’s delicate approach ensures a smoother, brighter eye area while maintaining the natural contour and shape of the eyes.

Otoplasty corrects the shape, size, or protrusion of the ears. It’s a popular procedure for both children and adults who feel self-conscious about prominent or misshapen ears. Dr. Lee repositions and reshapes the ears to lie closer to the head, resulting in a balanced, natural look that no longer draws unwanted attention.

An endoscopic brow lift is a minimally invasive procedure that elevates the brow and smooths forehead lines using small, hidden incisions. By gently lifting the brow, Dr. Lee can soften a stern or tired expression and create a more open, youthful appearance. This technique also reduces recovery time and scarring compared to traditional brow lift methods.

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a transformative surgical procedure that lifts and tightens sagging facial tissues to restore a younger-looking appearance. By targeting deep structural layers and removing excess skin, a facelift reduces jowling, smooths folds around the mouth, and redefines the jawline. Dr. Lee approaches each facelift with artistic intent, focusing on natural-looking rejuvenation while preserving your unique features.

The transaxillary incision is an advanced surgical technique that involves creating an incision in the natural folds of the armpit. Once the incision is made, Dr. Lee creates a path to the breast with an endoscope and a pocket for the breast implant. The transaxillary incision is often considered to be an endoscopic approach, meaning the incision typically ranges from an inch to an inch and a half in length, and the breasts are left virtually untouched. This allows any scarring to be hidden within the armpit once fully healed.

Genioplasty

Chin augmentation, or genioplasty, enhances the projection and shape of the chin to improve facial balance and jawline definition. Whether performed with a biocompatible implant or surgical bone repositioning, Dr. Lee uses this procedure to create symmetry and harmony between the chin, nose, and overall facial structure.

Liplift

A lip lift shortens the space between the upper lip and the nose, enhancing lip visibility and improving the proportions of the lower face. Ideal for patients with a lengthened philtrum or thin upper lip, this surgical procedure can restore a youthful, more expressive smile. Dr. Lee’s technique ensures natural results that complement the surrounding facial features.

Scar Revision

Scar revision surgery is performed to improve the appearance of scars from injury, surgery, or acne. Depending on the type and location of the scar, Dr. Lee may use excision, dermabrasion, laser therapy, or skin grafting techniques to minimize visibility. His precision and attention to skin texture ensure the revised scar blends seamlessly with the surrounding tissue.

Mole Removal

An endoscopic brow lift is a minimally invasive procedure that elevates the brow and smooths forehead lines using small, hidden incisions. By gently lifting the brow, Dr. Lee can soften a stern or tired expression and create a more open, youthful appearance. This technique also reduces recovery time and scarring compared to traditional brow lift methods.

Reconstruction After Skin Cancer Treatment

Following the removal of skin cancer—such as Mohs surgery—Dr. Lee performs reconstructive procedures to restore both function and appearance. With training in complex facial reconstruction, he carefully closes and repairs wounds using flap techniques or grafts, ensuring minimal scarring and optimal cosmetic outcomes. His goal is to restore your confidence and skin health in a safe, compassionate environment.
