Brent Moelleken, MD, FACS is a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon with offices in Beverly Hills and Santa Barbara. He is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and specializes in aesthetic surgery of the face and body, including breast augmentation and other breast surgery.

He is one of seven surgeons on the “Extreme Team” of surgeons on ABC’s Extreme Makeover and is regularly featured on Discovery Health Channel, CNN, Extra, and numerous other national and international television segments.

Top academic credentials in a plastic surgeon should be essential to a prospective patient. However, artistry and an innate understanding of beauty and proportion are equally important in a top plastic surgeon. Each patient possesses unique facial features. It is the gift of a talented plastic surgeon to enhance a patient’s favorable features, bringing out hidden beauty, while diminishing areas of asymmetry and disproportion. Only then can true beauty result. Dr. Moelleken believes it is the artistic eye of the surgeon that separates the technician from the artist.

Dr. Moelleken pioneered the superficial cheeklift operation, a superficial, fast recovery technique for lifting and rejuvenating the midface, the area below the eyes into the cheeks. The superficial cheeklift produces a cleaner, more rested appearance below the eyes than conventional lower eyelid surgery and avoids some of the changes in eye shape associated with conventional lower eyelid surgery. His technique was published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the premiere plastic surgery publication, and has appeared on numerous local, national, and international television segments.

Dr. Moelleken has innovated LiveFill™, disarticulated fascial fat grafts, a method of permanently augmenting areas of hollowness in the face, and of increasing lip fullness. The LiveFill™ method has many advantages over conventional fat injection, including higher survival rates and much less swelling postoperatively. The results of his study have been published in the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, have been presented at several international meetings, and have appeared on numerous local and national television segments.   Read on for more information . . .
