Top Procedures From Dr. Frankel in Beverly Hills
As a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and head and neck surgeon, Dr. Frankel only performs facial procedures. Specializing in facial plastic surgery has allowed him to hone his skills and provide patients with unparalleled results.
Whether you’re interested in reversing signs of facial aging or you’d like to change the shape and appearance of your facial features, there’s a treatment plan for you. Here are some of the most popular surgical procedures and non-surgical treatments Dr. Frankel offers.
Facelift
You can’t stop the aging process entirely, but you can slow it down with a facelift. A facelift has long been considered the gold-standard anti-aging surgical procedure. The surgery addresses several aesthetic concerns in the lower face, including sagging skin, volume loss, and wrinkles.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, aka a “nose job,” is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures in the world. It’s popular with movie stars, celebs, and everyday people who want to change the size and shape of their nose or improve its function.
Revision Rhinoplasty
When a patient isn’t happy with their results, a secondary or revision surgical procedure can be performed to correct or adjust them. Revision rhinoplasty is even more challenging than primary rhinoplasty and isn’t offered by every facial plastic surgeon.
Dermal Fillers and Injections
If you want to minimize lines and wrinkles or restore lost volume to various areas of your face but aren’t yet ready for cosmetic surgery, dermal fillers and injectables can be a good option for you.
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty, aka eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, aims to give patients a more youthful and well-rested appearance. Two types of eyelid surgery are available: an upper eyelid lift and a lower eyelid lift.
Brow Lift
While a facelift is a surgical procedure that focuses on rejuvenating the lower portion of the face, a brow lift focuses on refreshing the upper part of the face. The surgery is sometimes known as a forehead lift, as it can smooth the forehead while elevating the eyebrows.
Unparalleled care

Fellow
Dr. Jordan Kai Simmons is an Otolaryngologist and Head and Neck Surgeon joining the practice of his longtime mentor, Dr. Andrew Frankel, as a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Fellow, with a particular passion for facial rejuvenation, the aging face, and rhinoplasty. Dr. Simmons trained in Head and Neck Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, one of the nation’s most distinguished academic hospitals, recognized as the best hospital in California in 2026. There he rose to Chief Resident and, in the heart of Beverly Hills, trained rigorously alongside some of the most accomplished facial plastic surgeons in the world. He devoted thousands of hours to studying their craft at the operating table, cultivating the refined judgment and technical command that allow him to pursue surgical results that meet the exacting standard the field demands.
During his medical training, Dr. Simmons was elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society — a distinction reserved for the most outstanding medical students in the country — and earned National Institutes of Health research scholarships in three of his four years of medical school. He remains an avid researcher today, publishing several articles each year on rhinoplasty and facial surgery, with more than 100 combined research publications, book chapters, and national speaking engagements. Beyond the clinic, he is devoted to advancing the field as an innovator — including pioneering work applying artificial intelligence to the study of facial aesthetics — and to expanding access to reconstructive care for communities around the world through collaborations with the HELPS International mission organization in Guatemala.
Away from the operating room, Dr. Simmons is a marathon runner and lifelong tennis player, a devoted traveler, and a photographer whose eye for light, balance, and composition carries seamlessly into his surgical work.
