Based in Cleveland, Dr. Dedhia sees patients who want thoughtful, conservative facial surgery. Dr. Dedhia's practice, Raj Dedhia, MD Facial Plastic Surgery, treats the face as a single connected structure rather than a collection of isolated features.

Dr. Dedhia completed their medical education at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. This foundation supports a surgical philosophy grounded in anatomy and long-term stability of results.

The deep plane facelift is a technique in which the surgeon works beneath the SMAS layer — the sheet of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face. By repositioning tissue at a deeper level, Dr. Dedhia aims for results that look refreshed rather than tightened.

Rhinoplasty forms a significant part of Dr. Dedhia's work, reflecting years of focused nasal surgery. Their documented experience includes both cosmetic and functional aspects of the nose, addressing appearance and breathing together.

Eyelid surgery and neck lift procedures complete the core of Dr. Dedhia's facial rejuvenation practice. These operations are often combined with a deep plane facelift to restore harmony across the entire face and neck.

Dr. Dedhia is affiliated with the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Inc., a professional body focused on surgery of the face. Membership reflects ongoing engagement with the standards and education of the specialty.

Their clinical background also spans reconstructive and functional facial surgery, including nasal airway work. This breadth means patients are evaluated with both aesthetic and structural priorities in mind.

Recovery guidance is a consistent theme in Dr. Dedhia's care. Patients are counseled to expect swelling and bruising in the early weeks, with the face settling gradually over several months toward its final appearance.

Dr. Dedhia's practice emphasizes education during consultation. Patients considering a deep plane facelift are walked through the anatomy, the technique, and realistic timelines before any decision is made.

For women in their fifties and sixties, the appeal of Dr. Dedhia's method lies in restraint. The goal is a rested, age-appropriate result — a version of oneself that looks well, not artificial.

Cleveland offers a practical setting for facial surgery, with strong medical infrastructure and a calm environment for recovery. Dr. Dedhia's local practice allows patients to plan their procedure and healing in one place.

Over more than ten years of practice, Dr. Dedhia has concentrated on refining a limited set of procedures rather than offering everything. This focus is central to how Dr. Dedhia positions their work in facial rejuvenation.

Patients researching Dr. Raj Dedhia will find a surgeon whose profile is defined by facial specialization, deep plane technique, and a preference for natural results. Dr. Dedhia's practice reflects a deliberate, anatomy-first approach to the aging face.
