DEEP PLANE FACELIFT
A deep plane facelift is an advanced and extremely effective surgical technique, which smooths and tightens the skin of the face and neck; improves definition and redistributes fat to restore volume, resulting in a youthful, well-rested appearance. As it lifts the deep tissues and not merely the upper layers of the face and neck, it achieves a very natural-looking result and avoids the overly pulled and taut windswept look. It offers many benefits over other forms of facial rejuvenation surgery, including superior definition around the cheeks and jawline, longer lasting results, smaller incisions and minimal scarring and fewer complications as the thicker skin surface helps to prevent skin damage. The procedure can also be combined with a neck lift, brow lift and lower and/or upper eyelid surgery.

Procedure details
Unlike a traditional facelift, which only lifts the SMAS (the layer of tissue which covers the facial muscles and nerves from the forehead to the neck), a deep plane facelift goes even deeper below the SMAS in order to release the ligaments which tether the deep connective tissues and muscles. This allows the surgeon to pull those deep layers up and re-suspend them to achieve superior results.
Surgery is carried out under general anaesthetic and usually takes 2 to 3 hours. You will remain in the clinic for between 1 to 3 nights post-op and then stay at a nearby hotel for a further 4 nights. Dressings will stay on for 3 to 5 days and compression garments should be worn for another 2 weeks to minimise swelling and bruising. Non-absorbable sutures are removed 5 to 12 days after surgery. You can resume normal activities after 2 to 3 weeks and sport after 4 weeks unless your surgeon recommends otherwise.
