The Deep Plane Facelift: why I take this approach


In an era that promotes the ‘lunchtime lift’, or the ‘quick fix’ that promises to turn back time – I encourage you to take the time to research things thoroughly and consider your options fully.
Your face deserves the attention you give to this topic.
Your face is too important to mess with. Putting your best face forwards can assist you with enjoying confident interactions; whereas self-consciousness and dissatisfaction with your appearance can have the reverse effect.
Wrinkle treatments such as dermal fillers and muscle relaxing injections have their place but should not be overly relied upon.
Subtle, well-timed and expert treatment can produce natural-looking results that refresh the way you look. Overdoing it with cosmetic injections creates features like the ‘trout pout’ and the motionless forehead.
Whether with non-surgical or surgical procedures, the trend and expectation these days is to produce natural-looking results.
People want to look the best they can without any tell-tale signs of having had ‘work’ done. It is also increasingly important, especially in these uncertain economic times, to produce results that last.
It is for all these reasons that I have taken the time to adopt the most sophisticated approach to facial surgery – that is, the deep plane facelift.
The deep plane face and neck lift creates a more defined jaw, neck and cheekbones by working with the underlying structures of the face. There is no pulled appearance, and the results are longer lasting than other facial surgery procedures.
