Patient information: This healthy female in her mid 60’s wished to look better but came in to see Newport Beach facelift surgeon, Dr. Juris Bunkis of Orange County Plastic Surgery, telling him right off the bat that she did not want and will not have a facelift – she had seen “too many people that look fake”!
