Dr. John Bitner

Utah’s top choice for Facelifts

Restore a youthful, refreshed appearance with a facelift by Dr. John Bitner, Utah’s leading facial plastic surgeon. A facelift is designed to lift and tighten sagging skin, smooth deep lines, and enhance the natural contours of your face and jawline. Whether you’re looking to reduce jowls, refresh tired features, or achieve a more vibrant profile, our personalized approach ensures natural-looking results tailored to your unique facial structure. With expert care and attention to detail, Dr. Bitner helps patients regain confidence and feel their best at every stage of life.

How is a Facelift Performed?

Dr. Bitner has studied and learned the many different types of facelifts. He has broken it down to two types of lifts, the full lift, and the mini-lift. The full lift involves SMAS elevation and imbrication. This produces maximum benefits and will last for a decade or more. The mini-lift is designed for sagging in the cheek, jowl, and some of the upper part of the neck. The incisions are shorter, the undermining less extensive with a shorter recovery period. During your consultation, Dr. Bitner will review your goals and explain the benefits of each approach, helping you choose the procedure that’s right for you.

Simply a world class experience. I don’t know who was better: Dr. Bitner or his amazing staff. The results were better than I had even hoped for. I had a chin procedure done. I wouldn’t even hesitate to go back for anything else. Thank you for the fantastic experience!
I had a facelift, eyebrow lift, and my lips done 2 years ago... I still love the way I look. Dr. Bitner and staff are the best!!!
Dr. Bitner and his staff were incredible to work with. I could not recommend him enough! He cares about you as a patient, listens to your concerns, and has the skills and expertise to make you feel completely confident in what he can do for you.
I went to Dr. Bitner for an eyelid surgery. I am so happy with the results!! I feel like years have been taken off my face. There was no scarring under my eyes. You can not even tell that there was an eye tuck under my eyes. The surgery was easy no pain at all. I would recommend him to everyone I know. The office staff was very nice also and professional.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Dr. Bitner and his kind staff. They went above and beyond to help me. Truly exceptional service and care.
I love my results from the surgery with Dr Bitter. The change is amazing. I wish I had found him sooner. I’m 61 years old, feel 40. The main reason I chose Dr Bitter is he specializes only in faces. I think that’s what makes him more of a specialist. For me that is important. I love how excited he gets when he sees the amazing results.
Dr. Bitner is not only a first rate surgeon but an approachable, caring doctor that makes you feel comfortable and confidant in choosing the right procedure. His staff is knowledgeable, professional and friendly. All together, choosing this Doctor was a great decision!
The best experience I could have hoped for amazing Doctor I’m so happy with my face lift it’s changed my life and gave me back my self esteem I look and feel amazing! Thank you Dr Bitner! And the most amazing sweet staff!
