Weekend Liftin Beverly Hills, CA

A Real Approach to Facial and Neck Rejuvenation for the Younger Set

The Weekend Lift is a procedure built for people who want to age well, not all at once. Created by Dr. Daniel Gould, a top plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, this isn’t about pulling skin tight or walking out of the office looking like someone else. It’s about small, precise, surgical moves that help you hold the line against time, on your terms.

This procedure was designed for younger patients noticing early signs of loose skin, sagging, or a softening jawline. Maybe it’s a hint of a double chin or the beginning of neck banding. Maybe the skin around your neck or lower face isn’t bouncing back like it used to. That’s where our Beverly Hills Weekend Lift steps in.

And yes, it’s surgery—but it’s smarter, faster to recover from, and made to blend into your life (and calendar).

"My goal with the Weekend Lift isn’t to chase trends. It’s to give younger patients a foundation of support that preserves what they love about their face while gently correcting the early signs of aging. You’ll still look like you. You’ll just see the angles a little more clearly again." – Dr. Daniel Gould

What Is the Weekend Lift?

Think of it as a curated facial tune-up. The Weekend Lift is a next-gen facial rejuvenation procedure combining:

  • A deep plane facelift (no scar in front of the ear)
  • Midface and temporal lifting with an endoscope
  • A refined deep plane neck lift using Dr. Gould’s crevasse technique
  • Subtle fat grafting and nanofat injections for volume + skin texture
  • Laser resurfacing or energy-based skin tightening
  • And a recovery protocol focused on fast, supported healing

This is not a shortcut procedure—it’s a strategic, evidence-based way to address early aging in the face and neck without undergoing a full facelift.

You’ll look like yourself, just more defined, rested, and lifted.

Who Is The Weekend Lift For?

Let’s be real: not everyone needs a full facelift, and not everyone wants to spend weeks recovering. The Weekend Lift is for people who are just starting to notice changes and want to do something now—not later.

It’s a good fit if you:

  • Are in your 30s to early 60s and noticing neck skin laxity, jawline softening, or early platysma banding
  • Want a defined jawline without a drastic overhaul
  • Are dealing with mild to moderate swelling, sun damage, or excess skin under the chin
  • Have specific concerns about your neck or facial volume
  • Want natural results that last longer than injectables, without looking overdone

If you’ve been told you’re not ready for surgery but you know fillers and lasers aren’t cutting it anymore, you’re probably a great candidate.

What Happens During a Weekend Lift

This is a fully surgical procedure, performed under general anesthesia at a certified OR in Beverly Hills. It takes about three to four hours, depending on whether you’re also doing chin augmentation, neck liposuction, or skin resurfacing.

Dr. Gould uses well-hidden incisions to reach the deeper structures, not just the skin. Here’s what that includes:

  • Deep plane facelift: Targets tissues beneath the SMAS layer for real lift and longevity
  • Neck lift surgery: Uses the crevasse technique to sculpt the neck, tighten the platysma muscle, and remove excess fat
  • Fat grafting: Restores lost volume to keep results soft and natural
  • Laser and energy treatments: Improve skin tone, reduce sun damage, and help tighten surface texture

The result? A tighter, smoother, and more rejuvenated appearance—with results that look like you, just better.

Recovery: What You Can Expect

You won’t bounce back in 48 hours, but you also won’t need to disappear for a month. After a Weekend Lift Beverly Hills patients are social-ready in one to two weeks, with visible improvement starting about a week in

Your recovery includes:

  • Nutritional supplements (Arginine, Glutamine, Collagen, HealFast)
  • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy on day one for swelling and oxygenation
  • Lymphatic massage around day 7–10 to reduce moderate swelling and support healing
  • Compression garments as needed
  • 5-day injectable pain control (no narcotics required)
  • Tips to keep your head elevated the first night and beyond

Pain is usually minimal (think 0–1 out of 10), and most patients are back to normal activities within two weeks. You’ll see the swelling go down fast because we’ve built recovery into the surgery itself.
