Inside Out” Live Talk Show Interview With Diane Wagner Cable Channel 28, October 2005
  Dr. Michael Macdonald was featured on Ms. Wagner’s local talk show. In this segment, he specifically talked about the “48-Hour Facelift” procedure. During the interview, Dr. Macdonald expressed how much of a huge success this procedure is, particularly in patients who are not ready for or who are seeking an alternative to a traditional facelift. The “48-Hour Facelift” addresses areas that have been difficult to address in the past that were due to subtle but significant signs of aging, such as pronounced nasolabial folds (between the sides of the nose and the corners of the mouth) and hollowness in midface/cheek areas. With its rapid recovery time and much smaller incisions, hidden well above the hairline, it is very well suited to an active, younger patient with early signs of facial aging.
