NEED TO KNOW
- Doreen, 59, and her husband, Anthony, 61, got matching facelifts after Anthony noticed his wife’s youthful results
- “This made him take a good look at himself, and he realized it was time for him as well,” Doreen told The Looker
- They both turned to Dr. Paul Afrooz for their procedures
One woman's facelift was so good that it convinced her husband to get one, too.
Fifty-nine-year-old Doreen Mancini, a skincare sales representative from Miami, saw board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Afrooz for the procedure. She underwent a deep-plane facelift, deep-plane neck lift, temporal brow lift, fat transfer around her eyes and mouth and Erbium laser resurfacing under her eyes.
As she began to heal from the extensive surgery, Doreen's husband, 61-year-old Anthony Mancini, decided he wanted a facelift of his own.
“He noticed the amazing improvement and how much more youthful I looked without looking overdone or like I had surgery at all,” Doreen told The Looker. “This made him take a good look at himself, and he realized it was time for him as well.”
Dr. Afrooz told the outlet that couples' facelifts are "more common than you might think."

However, he clarifies that he performs the procedures on different days.
“I never do more than one facelift in a day, I really am very steadfast about that,” he said. “It's a person's face. It is their window to the world, and it's something that needs to be done with enormous amounts of meticulous attention to detail.”

Anthony's main concern was his neck, and he was very happy with his results, thanking Dr. Afrooz for being "a perfectionist."
Men are typically more skeptical of facelifts than women, Dr. Afrooz said. “A lot of men are worried that somehow they're going to lose character in their face, or have awkwardness to the way that they look, or potentially look surgical and not like themselves anymore,” he explained.

But Anthony and Doreen are both glad they went through with their procedures.
“We both were looking for a more natural, youthful version of ourselves, without looking like we had plastic surgery, and this was exactly the result we achieved,” Doreen told The Looker, adding, "We both get compliments all the time, but no one can pinpoint exactly what we've done."
