Planning Your Facial Rejuvenation Procedure in Los Angeles County
Dr. Frankel works with countless patients who live or work in Beverly Hills or Los Angeles County. The first step toward achieving your facial rejuvenation goals is to schedule a consultation at his practice.
During your consultation, Dr. Frankel will discuss what you hope to get from surgery or a non-surgical procedure. He can then recommend specific procedures to you or a combination of surgeries that will give you the best possible results.
As you plan for your consultation and cosmetic surgery, it’s a good idea to prepare a list of questions to ask Dr. Frankel so that you know what to expect before, during, and after your procedure.
Dr. Frankel will also give you suggestions and tips to help you prepare for surgery, such as recommendations for finding a person to drive you home and advice on how to stock your pantry or ready your home for the recovery period.

Fellow
Dr. Frankel is proud to have another exceptional Fellow training under him for the 2024 academic year. This year’s Fellow is Dr. Graham Ives.

During his six-years at USC, Dr. Ives excelled clinically and published extensively on multiple topics, including innovative approaches to gender affirming facial surgery. Although Dr. Ives is already quite accomplished and able to be practicing on his own, he decided to expand his training by committing to Dr. Frankel’s Fellowship specializing in Facial Plastic Surgery. Dr. Ives was raised in Colorado and graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder Cum Laude, with a Molecular, Cellular, & Developmental Biology degree. He then attended the University of Michigan Medical School, where he pursued an additional concentration in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. Dr. Ives was chosen by his peers for induction into the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society and graduated from medical school in the top of his class with honors.
