Plastic surgery after cancer treatment can be the final catalyst to helping patients physically and emotionally overcome such a difficult stage in their lives, says Dr. Ben Talei. It’s very fulfilling to be able to positively contribute to that process.

The May 15th issue of Life & Style magazine, on news stands now, features two of the country’s most respected facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Ben Talei and Dr. Ben Stong. These leading plastic surgeons discuss the considerable benefits of cosmetic surgery after cancer treatment. The article highlights the story of Angie Everhart, a popular cover model who turned to Dr. Talei for facial plastic surgery after her thyroid cancer recovery.

As a teen, Everhart became a cover model for fashion magazines such as Elle and Glamour. She went on to appear in several Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues as well as Playboy magazine. After battling thyroid cancer in 2013, Everhart sought Dr. Talei’s expertise to counteract the facial aging effects of her cancer and the radiation treatment it demanded. With her cancer gone, Angie Everhart simply wanted to look as good as she felt, a common desire in patients who choose facial plastic surgery.

Dr. Ben Talei, Director of the Beverly Hills Center for Plastic & Laser Surgery, was able to help Everhart by performing one of his specialties in cosmetic surgery, the AuraLyft. The AuraLyft is a modified facelift pioneered by Dr. Talei, where incisions are made under the muscles of the face, not just the skin. It can be performed painlessly using only local anesthesia, without the need for a general anesthetic. Everhart is thrilled with the results, stating in the Life & Style article “I look refreshed – like I’ve been to a spa!”

Dr. Benjamin Stong of Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery in Atlanta also comments on Everhart’s plastic surgery in the Life & Style magazine story, “With Dr. Talei’s facelift surgery the results are absolutely natural and there is no need for ancillary procedures. The face is never made to look pulled or stretched. It’s beyond impressive.” Dr. Stong is a world-class facial plastic surgeon with highly esteemed training, experience and recognition in his field. He performs an extended, mini deep plane facelift in his own practice, using a technique that aligns very closely with the AuraLyft and produces the same unrivaled results.

“Plastic surgery after cancer treatment can be the final catalyst to helping patients physically and emotionally overcome such a difficult stage in their lives,” says Dr. Ben Talei. “It’s very fulfilling to be able to positively contribute to that process.”
