Y LIFT

Y LIFT, LLC operates the practice, which was built around the Y LIFT procedure developed by Dr. Yan Trokel, MD, a board-certified maxillofacial surgeon. Clinics are in New York, Fort Lauderdale and Newport Beach, and the site says Y LIFT providers are located across the United States.

The Y LIFT is a closed facelift that takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes. It is performed under local anesthetic without incisions or general anesthesia, and filler placed beneath the muscle is used to hold it in a lifted position. The site says results appear right away and typically last two to four years. Treatment is planned with the flexYguide, an anatomical face-mapping tool. The site describes the procedure as suitable for most men and women from about 20 to 90 and says it can be done during a lunch break. The site says Dr. Oz nicknamed it the Miracle 30-Minute Facelift.

For more involved concerns, SurgYlift pairs the Y LIFT with Renuvion, a helium plasma liposculpture that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten neck tissue, and G-Stitch, an anti-gravity neck suspension suture placed through small skin punctures. The site says SurgYlift involves no scars and minimal downtime, and it is aimed at severe neck sagging, heavy jowls and nasolabial folds. Described outcomes include overall facial rejuvenation, cheekbone accentuation, jawline definition and improvement in the neck and jowls. Providers who complete the two-day hands-on SurgYlift course become certified and can join the Y LIFT Network, with lifetime access to the course material.

Anti-wrinkle injections use BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport or Jeuveau for forehead lines, crow's feet, frown lines between the brows and vertical neck bands. A BOTOX Cosmetic appointment takes about 10 minutes, and the site says results may begin within 24 to 48 hours and last up to four months. Dysport visits generally run 10 to 20 minutes. Dermal fillers are offered to add volume, define the jawline and cheeks, soften wrinkles and folds, and augment lips, using a micro droplet technique. EMSCULPT, a high intensity focused electromagnetic body treatment, is marketed for shaping the buttocks and sculpting the abdominal muscles without surgery.

MagnYm is a quick, non-surgical male enhancement procedure that uses neuromodulators, according to the site, and is designed to take 25 minutes or less. The site says it increases flaccid length and girth and does not change the size of an erect penis. Results are typically seen within a few days, with full effect within up to four weeks, and a single treatment is said to last six to nine months. The site notes that individual results may vary. The YLS Store sells skincare, fillers, neurotoxins, microneedling supplies, threads and other medical supplies, with network pricing shown instead of set prices. Clinics are open Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. Contact is +1 (212) 861 7787 or info@ylift.com.

Planning is anatomy-led: the physician discusses goals and maps the face before choosing treatment areas, and the Y LIFT is a non-incisional alternative to more invasive lifting.

The New York clinic is inside the Pierre Hotel, across Fifth Avenue from Central Park.
