I am just so happy. Like, my jawline is so snatched, but my jowls look so much better, so much more lifted, skin quality here. Did a little lip flip, reduced here, and raised my eyebrows. Are you happy? Very happy.

Hello, my name is Deanna Mollet, former Miss America 2004-2005, actress, producer, director of Deanna Lamb Productions. I have been seeing James Hooper now for approximately about three years, and he has done some amazing fine-tuning, not just for my face, but for my body as well, too. He brings together the youthfulness, but such a naturalness to my look that I get to engage in red carpet events, award shows, on camera as a talent, and he gives me the best look that I can achieve at my age. And by the way, I am over 55, so no invasive type of work, very non-invasive, so if you can and will, please come see James Hooper in Orange County, California.

First Butterfly Facelift® Session Review

After her first session, a client describes the areas she focused on — marionette lines, nasolabial folds, jawline, under-eyes, and fine lines — while sharing her overall reaction.

Read video transcript

All right, everybody. So I just finished up with my first session here at Skin Tightening Center Newport Beach. I did the butterfly facelift. And I've got to say I'm pretty blown away. Some of the areas that we worked on that I already see like a huge, drastic improvement is like right here I would have marionette lines that I just kind of hated. They are just a part of what comes with aging. And there was something that I would get filled but still just kind of wouldn't last very long or wouldn't work or one of the things I hated was kind of create like almost like a puffy look here. And even if I make a frowning face they're like basically completely gone, not there. Same with the nasolabial folds, right? That's an area that just always bugged me. It totally shows signs of aging. It's an area that I would have to fill maybe every six months or so. And it's just kind of nuts because it's almost as if like they're completely faded and gone, right? So as the skin and everything tighten and lifted, you know, that's kind of what seems to have fixed this all throughout here. Those are the types of things that you know is our skin sags. We lose collagen, get a little bit older. Those become more prominent. Now one of the areas I'm the most happy about is like my jawline. It looks so much like I did when I was 26 years old, right? There is no filler that was put in. I did have jawline filler done maybe three years ago. And I chose not to do it again just because yes, it gave me a tightened look like a sharper jawline. But the same thing that also did was it made my face look wider. And I really kind of hated that puffy look that the filler gave me. And now it's like everything is kind of restored very close to what it was when I was 26 years old. And without adding that extra volume, that filler would add. I normally get Botox to do a little bit of slimming of the nostrils and also to define the nose bridge more. Don't do filler anything in my nose. And right now it's like even without, you know, foundation, contouring, face makeup on or anything, it's like my nose bridge looks like I contoured it. So that is absolutely just miraculous to me. Also, too, there's an improvement of the little fine lines that I had around the eyes here. You know, I never had it too, too bad. And one area that really I'm super, super stoked about is I used to have a tiny little dent or give it there that had kind of formed from getting my under eyes filled. And one thing I didn't like was also the hollow of my eyes was just so, so deep as everything kind of sagged and started to fall. And there's just so much improvement in those areas. When I look, I don't even see the tiny little divot there anymore. I just kind of can't believe how much got accomplished in one session.

Real Reviews From Newport Beach Skin Tightening Clients

June 2026

As a professional model, my career is built on my appearance, so I’m extremely selective about who I trust with my face. James was different. Before I even told him what bothered me, he carefully studied my face with me and recognized the subtle concerns I was noticing. What impressed me most was his eye for detail and commitment to natural results. I’ve never had fillers or Botox, and preserving my natural appearance is extremely important to me. The next day, my friends simply commented that my skin looked amazing, healthy and glowing. James has a rare combination of technical skill, artistry and honesty.

Butterfly FaceliftApollo TriPollarFace / Jawline / Neck

I loved my experience with Jim Hooper! He was so personable and informative about all his products and procedures. I did the 20min Apollo Tripollar for $300 and was blown away at the transformation from just one session. I didn’t know my nose could be straighter & I finally have a jaw line! I’ll be returning for the Butterfly Facelift after seeing these miracle results. When I return I’ll be credited $300 towards the Butterfly Facelift. Great location, great service!

MicroneedlingAcne Scars & Texture

Recently went to Newport Beach Skin Tightening for a scar removal treatment with Jim, and I’m honestly really happy with my experience. The treatment included microneedling and another add-on (can’t remember the name!), but the whole thing was painless thanks to Jim’s strong numbing cream. After first session, I can already see my acne scars softening and blending into my skin. My skin feels smoother, and I’m starting to get my confidence back, excited to see the results and will update after my second visit. Consultation was super comfortable as well, Jim took his time showed me the exact areas that needed work, and also explained everything clearly. He’s a genuinely nice guy and really knows his craft. If you’re thinking about improving your skin or bringing back a more youthful look, I definitely recommend giving Jim a try.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Butterfly Facelift®?

The Butterfly Facelift® is a customized, non-surgical rejuvenation experience created by James Hooper. It brings up to seven complementary technologies (all seven in the Signature Butterfly Facelift®) together in one personalized session designed to support a lifted, refreshed appearance.

How soon will I see results?

Visible results are typically seen the same day. Your skin will continue to improve over the following 3–6 months as your collagen rebuilds and remodels naturally. Individual results vary.

How long can results last?

Results vary by individual, but most clients enjoy benefits for 12–18 months. Many choose to return annually to maintain their results.

Is there downtime?

Many appropriate clients experience minimal downtime. Temporary redness, sensitivity or swelling may occur, and individual experiences vary.

How do I know which treatment option is right for me?

Each Butterfly Facelift® option offers a different level of rejuvenation, number of technologies, treatment area, treatment time, and price — the Mini (four technologies) is best for mild concerns or maintenance, the Butterfly Facelift® (six technologies) suits mild-to-moderate facial and neck concerns, and the Signature (seven technologies) is the most comprehensive option. Your customized treatment plan will be discussed during a complimentary consultation.
