May Plastic Surgery operates as a boutique studio in Charlotte rather than a large multi-surgeon clinic. That scale shapes a practice built around individualized surgical planning.

The deep plane facelift is a technique that repositions the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a sheet of muscle and connective tissue beneath the skin) rather than pulling on the skin alone. Dr. Brian May works at this deeper layer to restore facial contours.

Facial rejuvenation at May Plastic Surgery extends beyond the facelift itself. The surgical menu includes neck lift, brow lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and facial fat grafting, allowing a tailored plan for each face.

Dr. Brian May favours a communicative consultation style, explaining each step of the procedure, the expected recovery and the potential risks before anything begins. This emphasis on informed decisions is a defining feature of the practice.

Recovery from a deep plane facelift is gradual, with most visible swelling and bruising easing over the first two weeks. Dr. Brian May sets expectations early so patients understand the timeline before surgery.

Charlotte anchors the practice at 6700 Fairview Rd in the city's south. The location places Dr. Brian May within one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the Carolinas.

Facial aging is driven by more than loose skin — it involves descent of the deeper tissues and loss of volume. The deep plane approach favoured by Dr. Brian May addresses that descent through tissue repositioning rather than surface tension.

Dr. Brian May holds membership in The Aesthetic Society, an organization of surgeons focused on aesthetic plastic surgery. Membership reflects an ongoing engagement with the aesthetic side of the specialty.

Beyond the face, May Plastic Surgery offers breast and body procedures, though Dr. Brian May's listed specialties centre on the deep plane facelift and facial rejuvenation. That concentration keeps the surgical focus on the face.

The practice maintains an active presence on Instagram at @brianmaymd, where Dr. Brian May shares surgical walk-throughs and educational content. This gives prospective patients a window into the practice before a consultation.

For patients weighing facial rejuvenation, Dr. Brian May represents a boutique, face-focused option in Charlotte. The combination of Duke medical training and a dedicated facial surgical menu defines the profile.

The practice name, May Plastic Surgery, signals a studio built around one surgeon's approach rather than a volume operation. For many patients researching Dr. Brian May, that personal scale is the draw.
