Deep Plane Facelift
Over time, subtle changes in our facial features can impact how we look and feel, but modern techniques allow us to restore balance and confidence. At Eos Rejuvenation, our Beverly Hills Deep Plane Facelift is a surgical procedure that delivers natural-looking results by repositioning the deeper layers of facial tissue. Led by Dr. Nima Shemirani, a double-board-certified facial plastic surgeon, and Dr. Keon Parsa, a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon, our approach to facial surgery is precise, sophisticated, and tailored to each patient’s unique needs. The Deep Plane Facelift surgery lifts the underlying tissues of the face rather than just tightening the skin, ensuring long-lasting, elegant rejuvenation.
The aging process leads to volume loss, skin laxity, and the descent of facial structure over time. A Deep Plane Facelift restores balance by repositioning the midface, jawline, and neck, providing a more youthful appearance without the overly tightened look that other facelift techniques may produce. This is an excellent option for patients seeking significant rejuvenation and long-term facial harmony.
The Deep Plane Facelift procedure is an advanced surgical technique that releases and repositions the deeper facial layers, including the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) and connective tissue. Unlike a traditional facelift, which primarily tightens the skin, this technique addresses sagging skin, deep creases, and facial aging by repositioning facial tissues at a structural level.
When considering facial rejuvenation, understanding the differences between a Deep Plane Facelift and a Traditional Facelift is essential. Both techniques aim to lift and tighten facial tissues, but the methods and results vary significantly.
A Traditional Facelift primarily lifts the skin and superficial tissues, while a Deep Plane Facelift lifts and repositions the underlying facial structure, creating a more natural and long-lasting result.
Feature | Deep Plane Facelift | Traditional Facelift |
Layers Lifted | Lifts deeper layers, including SMAS and connective tissues | Primarily lifts skin and superficial tissues |
Longevity | Lasts 10-15 years | Lasts 5-10 years |
Facial Expressions | Preserves natural expressions, avoiding a "pulled" look | May result in tight or unnatural appearance if overdone |
Effectiveness on Deep Creases | Significantly improves nasolabial folds and marionette lines | Moderate improvement of deep facial folds |
Jawline Definition | Repositions underlying tissues for a sculpted jawline | May require additional neck lift for better contouring |
Recovery Time | Around 2-3 weeks for initial healing, full results in 6-12 months | Similar initial recovery, but results settle faster |
Scarring | Incisions placed in hidden areas with minimal tension | More skin tension may lead to visible scarring |
A consultation with Dr. Nima or Dr. Parsa at Eos Rejuvenation will help determine the best approach based on your facial structure, skin laxity, and aesthetic goals.
