Patients undergo a thorough evaluation and discussion of their aesthetic goals. Pre-operative instructions may include medication adjustments and lifestyle changes to ensure optimal healing.
Incisions are typically made within the hairline and around the ears, strategically placed to minimize visible deep plane facelift scars. The exact pattern depends on the patient’s facial structure and specific goals.
The surgeon carefully separates the skin from the underlying muscles and tissues, then repositions and tightens these deeper structures. This step is crucial for achieving the desired lift and contour.
The skin is re-draped over the newly shaped contours, and excess skin is removed. The incisions are then meticulously closed with sutures to promote healing with minimal deep plane facelift scars.
Recovery from a surgery involves some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with medication. Most patients can return to normal activities within 2 to 3 weeks, although full recovery and the emergence of final results may take several months.

The primary difference lies in the surgical approach. A traditional facelift, focuses on the superficial layers of the face, primarily addressing skin and the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS). In contrast, the deep plane procedure goes deeper to reposition the facial muscles and fat, offering more natural and long-lasting results.
