Restoring support to key areas of your face can change how your entire facial structure looks. Beverly Friedlander MD brings decades of surgical expertise to filler-based techniques that lift, contour, and create smoother transitions across the midface and jawline.
As part of our facial balancing services at our practice in Short Hills, New Jersey, the 8 Point Facelift uses carefully placed fillers to rebuild support in eight strategic regions of the face.
The 8 Key Treatment Areas of the 8 Point Facelift
While the exact plan is personalized, the 8 Point approach generally includes adding filler to the following areas:
- Upper cheek support
- Lateral cheek contour
- Tear trough softening
- Nasolabial fold support
- Mouth corner lift
- Lower cheek shaping
- Jawline definition
- Pre-jowl reinforcement
What the 8 Point Facelift Can Improve
- Flat or hollow cheeks
- Early jowl formation
- Softened jawline contours
- Deepened folds around the mouth
- Lower-face heaviness
- Facial asymmetry
- A tired or deflated midface
Small adjustments made across several points often create a more cohesive result requiring less product than isolated filler placements and resulting in improved balance.
Your Treatment
Dr. Bev begins with a structural assessment, reviewing your profile, expression patterns, and areas of volume loss. She performs all injections herself using techniques that minimize discomfort while delivering precise depth and placement.
A topical anesthetic is applied to all areas being treated with filler, to reduce the discomfort.
Treatment typically takes 20–30 minutes. You may notice immediate improvement, with full settling visible over the following days. Mild swelling or tenderness may occur but resolves quickly.
How Long Results Last
Results vary depending on the fillers used and your facial anatomy, but the structural benefits often last several months to more than a year. Follow-up appointments help maintain shape and allow Dr. Bev to adjust your plan as your needs evolve.

Why Choose Beverly Friedlander MD?
Dr. Bev is a board-certified plastic surgeon with more than 25 years of experience studying and operating on the deeper layers of the face. Her surgical background gives her a unique advantage: she knows exactly where the face loses support, which ligament systems matter most, and how volume influences contour from multiple angles.
Her approach reflects the same precision she brings to her surgical work. Dr. Bev performs every injection herself, using her detailed understanding of facial structure to place filler at the right depth and in the right sequence. This combination of surgical insight and refined injection technique allows her to create structured improvement that looks cohesive rather than “filled.”
