PET Lift Miami Non-Surgical Facial Lifting Treatment
PET Lift (Point of Tissue Elevation)
The PET Lift (Point of Tissue Elevation) is an advanced facial rejuvenation technique designed to lift, tighten, and restore youthful contours with precision.
Originally developed through anatomical research between 2003 and 2005, the PET Lift focuses on repositioning deeper facial structures rather than simply tightening the skin, delivering more natural and longer-lasting results.
At CG Cosmetic, our experienced surgical team performs this technique using refined methods tailored to each patient’s unique facial anatomy.
What Is a PET Lift?
The PET Lift is a specialized approach to facial lifting that targets key structural points of the face to restore volume and reposition tissue.
Unlike traditional facelifts that may focus on skin tension, this method emphasizes:
Strategic lifting points
Minimal tension on the skin
Natural facial movement and expression
The result is a refreshed, youthful appearance, without the "overdone" look.
The Anatomy Analysis
The PET Lift is guided by a specialized anatomical framework known as "Youth and Beauty Anatomy." This structured approach helps surgeons evaluate facial aging and plan precise, natural-looking rejuvenation.
It also supports clear clinical assessment and consistent results across patients.
This framework is based on three key parameters:
7 Facial Drops: Identifies areas of volume loss and tissue descent
Beauty Central Bar: Focuses on central facial balance and harmony
Nasolabial Module: Addresses depth and structure around the smile lines
Together, these principles allow for a more targeted and refined approach to facial lifting.
Our Miami-based team includes experienced plastic surgeons and advanced practice providers (APRNs), specializing in facial procedures such as mini facelifts and full facelifts, along with minimally invasive lifting techniques. Select procedures performed under local anesthesia may be carried out by qualified APRNs, ensuring a safe, seamless experience with natural, consistent results.

Common Questions
Who is a candidate for a PET Lift?
Candidates are typically individuals in good general health who are experiencing mild to moderate facial laxity and are seeking a more refreshed appearance.
A consultation is the best way to determine if the PET Lift or another facial procedure, is appropriate based on your anatomy, goals, and medical history.
I’ve had facial surgery before. Can I still get a PET Lift?
In many cases, patients who have had previous facial procedures may still be considered for a PET Lift.
Because every case is different, a proper evaluation is required to determine safety, suitability, and the best treatment approach.
I recently had thread treatments. Can I still do a PET Lift?
Patients who have had prior thread treatments may still be eligible for a PET Lift.
Timing will depend on your healing status and whether there are any complications. A consultation will help determine the safest timing and approach.
How long does the procedure take? What type of anesthesia is used?
Procedure time can vary, but many treatments are completed in approximately one hour.
PET Lift is commonly performed under local anesthesia. In some cases, sedation may be considered, which could require additional evaluation and may affect recovery time.
How long do results last?
All facial rejuvenation procedures are influenced by the natural aging process, so results vary from patient to patient.
Many patients experience results that last longer than temporary treatments such as threads, but no specific duration can be guaranteed. Maintenance treatments or adjustments may be considered over time.
What is the recovery like?
Recovery varies depending on the individual and the extent of the procedure.
In general, patients may experience mild swelling, tenderness, or discomfort in the first few days. Most patients return to normal activities as tolerated, but your provider will give you personalized aftercare instructions
What are the possible risks or complications?
As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks, although many are uncommon.
These may include:
Temporary discomfort or pain
Mild swelling or bruising
Minor bleeding at entry points
Infection (rare, but may require treatment)
Local irritation or healing irregularities
Following post-procedure instructions closely helps reduce risks. Any concerns during recovery should be addressed promptly with your provider.
