What Is a Deep Plane Facelift?

A deep plane facelift is a plastic surgery procedure that aims to lift and smooth the face and neck for a more youthful appearance. With facial aging comes drooping, loose skin, wrinkles, and the formation of jowls and skin folds on the neck. A deep plane facelift can soften and even out these issues to refresh the face.

Unlike traditional facelift surgery, a deep plane lift disengages the underlying retaining ligaments beneath the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer. This makes the entire area (not only the skin) more mobile so that it can be gently pulled upward, softly and naturally tightened, and smoothed overall.

Types of Deep Plane Facelift

Mini Deep Plane Facelift

The mini deep plane facelift is basically a traditional deep plane facelift that targets a smaller treatment area and comes with smaller incisions. This surgery is not frequently used, but in some cases and for certain patients, it may be the most appropriate variation.

Extended Deep Plane Facelift

An extended deep plane facelift offers the same improvements that a traditional deep plane lift offers, but it goes a bit further by extending the treatment area in various parts of the face. The extent to which this is done depends on the patient and his or her pain points. Ultimately, the incisions for an extended lift tend to be a bit longer.

Deep Plane Facelift Recovery

The deep plane facelift recovery time tends to last from one to two weeks, depending on the extent of your surgery. You will have swelling, some light soreness, and bruising around the face, neck, and chest.

While healing, avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise. Take it easy and get plenty of rest. When you are cleared for some light movement by your surgeon, get up and start walking right away. Short gentle walks get the blood flowing and reduce your risk of blood clots.

During deep plane facelift recovery day by day you will improve. Most patients can stop taking pain medications after just a few days. You should be able to return to work by the two week mark and to exercise around four weeks post surgery.

Deep Plane Facelift Cost

Every patient’s mini deep plane facelift cost will be different as pricing depends on the extent and scope of each specific facelift procedure (and the patient’s natural facial anatomy).

Pricing also depends on surgical facility fees, pre-surgery testing, anesthesia, post-surgery recovery costs, whether additional procedures are performed (a neck lift, for example), and what your chosen facial plastic surgeon charges for his or her surgeon’s fee.

FAQs: Deep Plane Facelift Las Vegas

What will my 1 week post op deep plane facelift scars look like?

Deep plane facelift scars will heal, fade, and become far less noticeable over time. So while one week after surgery, they will be somewhat red and slightly raised and visible, after a few more weeks, they will begin to further flatten out and fade in color.

Can you correct a deep plane facelift gone wrong?

While it’s always important to have realistic expectations about cosmetic surgery, face and neck surgery can go wrong at times.

When facial surgery does go wrong, it’s often because the surgeon was not well-qualified. Fortunately, if you find a better, more experienced board certified plastic surgeon, you can correct an initially poorly done surgical procedure.

Where are deep plane facelift incisions?

Every surgeon has their own facelift technique, but most surgeons use incisions around the ears and within the hairline for deep plane facelift procedures.

What are the most common deep plane facelift complications?

An adverse reaction to general anesthesia, infection, bleeding, injury to a facial nerve, or a poor outcome (or poor scarring) are some of the top concerns when it comes to facelift complications. You and your surgeon will go over these together at your consultation appointment.

While rare, it’s still important to know what you can expect in terms of risks. The good news is that when a board certified plastic surgeon with deep plane facelift surgery experience is chosen, most patients fare very well and have an excellent outcome.

How much is a deep plane facelift?

Pricing for deep plane facelift procedures and other aesthetic surgery depends on the surgeon, the patient, and the proposed surgery. Every patient is different, every surgery is different, and every surgeon charges a different amount for their care.

So, how can you know how much to expect to pay? It’s best to book a consultation appointment. At this appointment, you’ll find out if you’re a good candidate for surgery while also learning more about the procedure in general and, of course, how much it will cost. Financing is typically available for those who qualify.

And this can provide excellent motivation to continue following your surgeon’s aftercare instructions and working toward your final outcome.

Can you get a deep place facelift 40s, 50s, later?

Yes. In fact, the vast majority of patients who benefit most from deep plane facelifts are those in their 40s, 50s, and older. This surgery can smooth the facial skin, get rid of wrinkles and deep nasolabial folds, and lift the entire facial contour for stunning, natural looking results.
