ProMD Health First Medical Spa in Maryland to Offer Y LIFT Procedure

Dr. George Gavrila is one of only nine doctors in the country to offer the 30-minute, minimally invasive face lift.

ProMD Health, a leading health and medical spa, today announced the availability of the Y LIFT® at its Baltimore County and Washington D.C. offices. Offered by ProMD Health founder, Dr. George Gavrila, the Y LIFT® -- coined by Dr. Oz as the 30-Minute Miracle Face Lift -- is a minimally invasive facial contouring developed by Dr. Yan Trokel that accentuates the cheekbones, under eye area, defines the jaw line and lifts the upper neck with no incisions and no anesthesia, producing instant results. Dr. Gavrila is only one of nine doctors in the country currently offering the procedure.

Featured on Dr. OZ, the Doctors, Harpers Bazaar, Marie Claire, Elle, and The New York Times, the Y LIFT replenishes the volume and restores youthful facial contours lost in the natural aging process. The Y LIFT not only revives the ideal youthful shape of a person’s face, it also enhances and beautifies the face’s natural features, making the procedure suitable for persons of all ages. It is available for men and women alike, is done using a local anesthetic, and lasts up to three years.

“The Y LIFT has completely changed contemporary facial rejuvenation, and it’s an honor to be one of a few select doctors able to offer the procedure,” said Dr. Gavrila. “Now, more people in the Baltimore-Washington area can take advantage of this revolutionary treatment as an alternative to traditional face lifts.”

The entire Y LIFT procedure takes approximately 30-60 minutes, after which patients can immediately resume their daily activities. The Y LIFT is one of the few procedures that is completely reversible. What’s more, the procedure costs significantly less than the average face lift.

The Y LIFT uses a cutting-edge technique that requires specialized equipment and an experienced hand. A titanium instrument is inserted beneath the skin and then maneuvered throughout specific parts of the face to lift and contour muscles, fascia, and fat underlying the skin. Once lifted, Hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally present in the skin is used to hold the elevated position in place. The rejuvenated face is then sculpted to accent and highlight an individual’s beauty. For more information about the Y LIFT, visit ProMD Health at www.promdhealth.com/y-lift
