• A proprietary laser, microneedling, and nanofat (LaMiNa) technique to treat fine lines and wrinkles around the lips and mouth

Claytor Noone Plastic Surgery has experienced a dramatic increase in the requests for facial rejuvenation, likely due to patients’ desire to combat ageism and experience increased empowerment and confidence by revealing the best versions of themselves.

Advances in innovative surgical techniques, as well as state-of-the-art surgical facilities, have made deep plane facelifts under tumescent anesthesia a reality. We’ve consistently pioneered advancements in facial rejuvenation and neck aesthetics, offering a range of intricate surgeries that can be seamlessly conducted within our accredited private surgical facility. Our commitment to excellence sets us apart in delivering comprehensive and sophisticated procedures. The tumescent anesthesia surgical technique maximizes patient comfort as well as accelerates recovery, with most patients being able to be out in public within one week of their surgery.

Dr. Claytor’s groundbreaking research and innovation have earned him national recognition. In 2023, Dr. Claytor debuted his innovative LaMiNa technique for addressing wrinkles around the lips and mouth (perioral rhytids, also known as smoker’s lines). LaMiNa was greeted with great interest by the medical community and patient population alike.
