What Is The Deep Plane Facelift?

A Deep Plane Facelift involves a meticulous surgical technique that targets the deeper layers of facial tissue, specifically the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS). This layer, beneath the skin, houses the facial muscles and connective tissues responsible for facial expression and support. Unlike traditional facelifts that primarily focus on superficial adjustments, the Deep Plane Facelift repositions these deeper structures for a more comprehensive rejuvenation.

The surgery commences with an incision carefully placed along the natural contours of the face. This incision grants the surgeon access to the SMAS layer, allowing for the strategic repositioning of facial tissues. By addressing this deeper plane, the procedure can deliver more substantial and long-lasting results compared to traditional facelifts.

What Are the Benefits of Deep Plane Facelift?

Experience the remarkable benefits of a Deep Plane Facelift with Dr. Michelle Cabret and Dr. Kimberly Prock:

  • Natural-Looking Results: The deep plane approach ensures a more natural and harmonious outcome by repositioning facial tissues at a deeper level.
  • Longevity: Enjoy the benefits of a youthful appearance that lasts longer compared to traditional facelift procedures.
  • Minimized Scarring: With Dr. Cabret and Dr. Prock’s meticulous surgical techniques, visible scarring is minimized—resulting in subtle, beautiful outcomes that let you look refreshed without looking “done.”

The Difference Between Traditional And Deep Plane

Its ability to address multiple concerns simultaneously sets the Deep Plane Facelift apart. Beyond tightening the skin, the surgery allows for the repositioning of fat pads, enhancement of facial contours, and correction of sagging jowls. The goal is not just to reverse signs of aging but to sculpt and restore a more youthful, natural appearance.

One of the remarkable aspects of our Deep Plane Facelift in Lakeway is its longevity. Unlike some traditional facelift procedures that may require touch-ups sooner, the deep plane approach provides enduring results. Patients can enjoy the benefits of their rejuvenated appearance for an extended period, making it a worthwhile investment in both time and resources.

How is a deep plane facelift different from other facelift techniques?

Unlike traditional facelift techniques that primarily address the skin and superficial tissues, a deep plane facelift involves lifting and repositioning the deeper facial structures, resulting in more comprehensive and natural-looking rejuvenation with longer-lasting results.

How long does a deep plane facelift surgery take?

The duration of a deep plane facelift surgery typically ranges from 4 to 6 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure and whether additional techniques, such as fat grafting or neck contouring, are performed simultaneously.

Will a deep plane facelift surgery leave visible scars?

Incisions for a deep plane facelift are typically made in inconspicuous locations, such as along the hairline and behind the ears. Scarring is inevitable but usually fades over time and becomes less noticeable.

When will I see the final results of a deep plane facelift?

While some initial improvements may be visible once the swelling subsides, it can take several weeks to months for the full results of a deep plane facelift surgery to become apparent as swelling resolves and tissues heal.
