Dr. Blake Raggio Raggio MD Facial Plastic Surgery

Double Board Certified Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon Botox
Not all injectors are created equal. Expert.

To see me as a patient in my Mobile, AL office please call Synergy MedAesthetics at 251-999-6691. Dr. Raggio's philosophy is simple: to create a customized treatment plan that produces a lasting, beautiful, and natural result. Facelift
Dr. Raggio performs what is called an Extended Deep-Plane facelift. With this Deep-Plane technique, you can be guaranteed you will receive the most natural, robust, and durable results possible when rejuvenating the face & neck. Rhinoplasty (nose job)
Having trained under masters in the field at both Tulane and the University of Toronto, Dr. Raggio brings an unprecedented knowledge of Rhinoplasty (nose job) to the Montgomery community. Dr. Raggio will focus not only on improving your breathing but also on creating a nose that best fits your face. Revision Rhinoplasty (nose job)
For those who have undergone previous nasal surgery and experienced suboptimal results, revision rhinoplasty is a way to restore both shape and function to your nose. Dr. Raggio will utilize his extensive knowledge and experience in both primary and revision rhinoplasty to achieve that goal. Blepharoplasty (eyelid procedure)
Eyelid procedures require a great deal of skill, precision, and attention to detail, which is why Blepharoplasty is one of Dr. Raggio's favorite procedures. Dr. Raggio will utilize one of a number of cutting-edge techniques to restore a more youthful appearance to the eye region. As a Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Raggio's extensive knowledge of facial anatomy gives him a distinct advantage over other botox injectors. With intentional applications of precise amount of product, Dr. Raggio will restore a more youthful appearance to your face. Filler
Not all injectors are created equal. As a Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Raggio's extensive knowledge of facial anatomy gives him a distinct advantage over other injectors. Also, Dr. Raggio's precision, attention to detail, and superb technique are what distinguishes him from other injectors. Chemical Peel
Dr. Raggio employs what is called a Monheit peel, a tried-and-trusted technique of skin resurfacing used to target sunspots, fine lines and wrinkles, and texture irregularities. This type of peel represents a powerful tool, used alone or in conjunction with other procedures, for facial rejuvenation. hair restoration
Hair restoration, whether it be non-surgical (PRP injections) or surgical (Hair Transplant), represents a powerful procedure to rejuvenate the signs and symptoms of premature hair loss. As a Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Raggio has extensive training in both of these hair restoring modalities. Mohs defect repair
As a Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon, Dr. Raggio takes pride in his ability to restore form and function to faces affected by large or unsightly skin cancer excisions. Facial Trauma
Facial trauma, whether it be from an accident or sports-related injury, requires careful technique to be able to recreate the form and function inherent to the face. Dr. Raggio's dual training in both Head & Neck Surgery, and Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, allow him to do just that. Liposuction
Liposuction of the face and neck can be used to restore a more youthful appearance to the midface, jawline, and neck. Liposuction can be performed either alone in the office setting, or in the operating room in conjunction with other facial rejuvenation procedures. The results can be very impactful. Facial Fat Grafting
Facial fat grafting requires the harvesting of your own body's adipose (fat cells) and reimplanting them into portions of the face affected by volume loss. Similar to dermal filler procedures, facial fat grafting can target those areas where hollows and deep wrinkles/folds promote an aged look. Jawline Contouring
Jawline contouring can be obtained using a combination of procedures, including buccal fat removal, masseter reduction using botox, jawline and chin augmentation using fillers and/or implants, and liposuction. These procedures can be done in-office, or under light sedation with minimal downtime. Medical spa

Botulinum toxin (e.g., Botox, Xeomin, Jeuveau)
Not all injectors are created equal. Dr. Raggio's dual training in Head&Neck Surgery, and Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery gives him a distinct advantage over other injectors. Trust your face to a facial plastic surgeon. Dermal Filler (e.g., Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Belotero)

Part One: 1 Week Post-Op Facial Rejuvenation & Rhinoplasty

The update you've all been waiting for!

Just ONE week after undergoing a Preservation Extended Deep Plane Facelift, Deep Structural Neck Lift, Brow Lift, Rhinoplasty, and Facial Fat Grafting, she's seeing her new nose for the very first time following cast removal!

In this video, we capture that moment and hear her advice for anyone who may be considering facial rejuvenation themselves.

It's important to remember that one week is still incredibly early in the healing process. Swelling and bruising are very much expected at this stage, particularly following a comprehensive procedure like hers. Her nose, face, and neck will continue to soften, settle, and refine over the months ahead.

What you're seeing today is only an early glimpse of her result, with significant healing still to come.

We are incredibly grateful to this patient for allowing us to share such personal moments throughout her experience. We look forward to continuing to follow her recovery and sharing her progress along the way.

4 Weeks Post-Op: Facial Rejuvenation

At just four weeks after facial rejuvenation, we are beginning to see the early foundation of this patient's result, but there is still significant healing and refinement ahead.

While much of the initial swelling and bruising has improved, residual swelling, firmness, and changes in facial contours are still very normal at this stage. Over the coming months, her tissues will continue to soften, swelling will gradually resolve, and her results will become increasingly refined.

In this video, our wonderful patient shares her biggest advice for anyone considering facial rejuvenation: follow your postoperative instructions, prepare yourself for the recovery process, and go into surgery with the right mindset.

At four weeks, she is still very early in her journey, and we look forward to watching her results continue to evolve.

We are incredibly grateful to this patient for trusting our team and sharing her experience to help others feel more informed and prepared for their own facial rejuvenation journey.

RESULTS IN REAL LIFE

Another look at our patients beyond the traditional before and after.

This wonderful patient is just 4 weeks post-op facial rejuvenation, and we love seeing her back to enjoying everyday life while her healing journey continues.

At this stage, she is still very early in recovery. Residual swelling is still present, and her results will continue to soften and refine over the months ahead.

But that’s what makes these photos so special. They offer a glimpse of what facial rejuvenation looks like outside of our clinical setting, without the perfect lighting, positioning, or standardized photography.

Natural results should look just as natural in everyday life as they do in our before and after photos.

We are so grateful when patients share these moments with us and allow us to celebrate their progress along the way.

10/13/2026

As this patient approaches her 60th birthday, her goal is simple: she wants her outward appearance to better reflect how she feels on the inside and the way she has always pictured herself.

This is something we hear often in facial plastic surgery. Patients don't necessarily want to look younger or become someone different. They simply want to feel that the person looking back at them in the mirror reflects how they see themselves.

For this patient, our surgical plan includes a Preservation Extended Deep Plane Facelift, Deep Plane Neck Lift, Brow Lift, Rhinoplasty, and Facial Fat Grafting.

Each procedure serves a specific purpose, from restoring structural support and addressing changes in the face and neck to refining nasal proportions and replenishing areas of volume loss. Together, these procedures allow us to approach her goals comprehensively rather than treating each concern in isolation.

We are grateful to this patient for allowing us to share her experience. Stay tuned as we follow her healing journey, from the earliest stages of recovery through the gradual refinement of her results over the months ahead.

8 Months Post-Op: The Trifecta Lower Lid Lift

Scarless Lower Lid Blepharoplasty, Autologous Stem Cell-Rich Fat Transfer, and CO₂ Laser Resurfacing.

The under-eye area is one of the most delicate areas of the face, and achieving a natural result often requires addressing more than just under-eye bags.

The Trifecta Lower Lid Lift combines three complementary approaches to address under-eye fullness, restore lost volume and support through fat grafting, and improve skin quality with CO₂ laser resurfacing.

At 8 months post-op, this patient's results have continued to settle and refine, creating a smoother transition between the lower eyelid and cheek while preserving the natural appearance of her eyes.

6 Months Post-Op: Rhinoplasty, Upper Blepharoplasty & Brow Lift

Healing is more than just a physical process.

This lovely patient is six months following rhinoplasty, upper blepharoplasty, and brow lift.

One aspect of recovery that is often overlooked is the psychological adjustment that comes with facial surgery. When you've spent years looking at the same reflection, even subtle changes can take time to become familiar. There may be moments when you look in the mirror and don't quite recognize yourself, and that can be a natural part of the healing experience.

We often remind our patients that recovery is not always linear. Just as the physical results require patience, so does the process of adjusting to your new appearance.

The goal is not simply to look different, but to feel like yourself throughout the process. And understanding that healing takes time, both physically and emotionally, is an important part of that journey.

Two weeks after a Revision Deep Plane Facelift, Deep Plane Neck Lift, Brow Lift, Fat Grafting, and Full Face CO₂ Laser Resurfacing.

At 2 weeks post op, she has already come a long way from those first few days of recovery, but there is still plenty of healing happening beneath the surface.

We started sharing this patient's journey at just 72 hours post op, when swelling and bruising were much more evident. Since then, we've continued to follow her recovery through those early milestones, and now at two weeks, you can begin to appreciate just how much can change in a relatively short period of time.

Two weeks can feel like a major milestone, but facial rejuvenation continues to evolve for months. Swelling will continue to subside, the tissues will soften, and her facial contours will become increasingly refined with time.

Every patient heals differently, and there is no single timeline that applies to everyone.

We are incredibly grateful to this patient for continuing to let us share the real stages of her recovery.

7 Days Post Op: Facial Rejuvenation

One week after a Revision Deep Plane Facelift, Deep Plane Neck Lift, Brow Lift, Fat Grafting, and Full Face CO₂ Laser Resurfacing.

At 7 days post op, the signs of surgery are still very evident. Swelling and bruising are present, the tissues are still healing, and what we see today is nowhere near her final result.

But recovery isn't only about what you see in the mirror.

At this stage, this patient is beginning to ease back into parts of her normal routine. Driving, light errands and returning to desk work as she feels comfortable. While she may still look very early in the healing process, she is already beginning to feel more like herself.

This is an important distinction when we talk about facial rejuvenation recovery. Visible swelling and bruising can last longer than the period when a patient feels ready to resume certain everyday activities. Every patient's timeline is different, and returning to normal activities should always follow their individual postoperative guidance.

We are incredibly grateful to this patient for allowing us to share this stage of her journey. The polished before and after is only one part of the story. This is what one week can really look like.

72 Hours Post Op: Facial Rejuvenation

This is the part of facial rejuvenation recovery that can feel intimidating to see, but it is also one of the most important parts to understand.

At just 72 hours post op, swelling, bruising, tightness, and changes in facial appearance can be significant. This is not the result. This is healing.

It takes a great deal of vulnerability to share yourself at this stage, and we are incredibly grateful to this patient for allowing others to see the reality of early healing rather than only the polished result months later.

Her biggest piece of advice? Do your research and know what to expect.

Having the right mindset going into facial rejuvenation can make a meaningful difference in how you navigate recovery. Understanding that you will be swollen, that you may not look like yourself for a period of time, and that healing isn't linear can help you feel more prepared for those early days.

What you see at 72 hours is temporary. The swelling will change, the tissues will soften, and the result will gradually begin to reveal itself over the weeks and months ahead.

This is 72 hours. Not the final result. And we are thankful to have patients willing to show you the journey in between.
