Dr. Buchanan is dedicated to renewing your face and neck to a natural, fresh, rested, healthy and youthful appearance that is long lasting. To do this, and prevent the unnatural, pulled or “windswept” look of most older facelifts, he has adopted the MACS (Minimal Access Cranial Suspension) Lift as his central method of face and neck rejuvenation. He arrived at this after searching for a better way to perform revision or secondary facelifts. What he found was a better way to do ALL facelifts, a method that corrects the problems of and, when done primarily, avoids the problems of the standard techniques of face lifting.
 No matter when you decide to have facial rejuvenation, a modified version of the MACS Lift can achieve the natural, improved look you seek without the stigmata of older techniques. Whenever the aging process becomes noticeable and bothersome to you, a variation of the MACS Lift can provide the correction you need. This could be at a younger age trying to stay ahead of aging, or later with significantly lax tissues. Since the pull is in the direction from where the tissues came, and not artificially backward, there is usually not an incision behind the ear. Because the deeper fascia (the supportive tissue) is anchored to immobile structures, the results are usually longer lasting.
Of course, if you have already had a facelift, and are dissatisfied with the results or want to “touch up” the result of continued aging after an otherwise adequate procedure, the MACS Lift is the perfect solution. Since the first part of the 20th Century, facelifts have evolved very little until now. There are certain problems that tend to occur after these facelifts. Continued aging tends to be predictable also, mainly around the eye, central face and mouth area, since the older techniques generally do not address these areas adequately. The MACS Lift not only corrects these problems, but lifts the tissues to where they were originally.
Because aging is not limited to the support structures of the face and neck (those parts corrected by the MACS Lift), Dr. Buchanan and his knowledgeable, friendly staff can also help reverse the effects of aging on the skin and other areas of the body.
 The practice is located in the beautiful Blue Ridge/Smoky Mountain area of Western North Carolina. Highlands, NC is the perfect place to have surgery (performed at the fully equipped, modern Highlands-Cashiers Hospital for safety) and recover in peace and serenity. It is also the prefect place for your spouse or accompanying friends to relax and enjoy nature or world-class golf, recreation, shopping or dining.
