Deep Plane Face Lift
Case dpfl-2026
Deep Plane Facelift, Neck Lift & Endoscopic Brow Lift for Facial Rejuvenation
This patient in her early 60s underwent a deep plane facelift and neck lift combined with an endoscopic brow lift to restore a more lifted, defined, and refreshed appearance while maintaining natural facial movement and expression. One of her primary concerns was the heaviness through the lower face and neck, as well as the lack of definition and projection along the profile and chin area. By lifting and repositioning deeper facial structures rather than simply tightening skin, the procedure created a stronger jawline, smoother neck contour, and more balanced side profile without the need for an artificial or over-pulled appearance. The endoscopic brow lift helped elevate the brows and open the upper face, improving heaviness around the eyes while preserving a soft, natural look. Deep plane facelift techniques are designed to restore youthful facial structure, contour, and support with longer-lasting, elegant results. Together, these procedures created a smoother transition from the face to the neck, improved overall facial harmony, and a more rested, confident appearance both from the front and in profile.

Case dpfl2-2026
Deep Plane Facelift, Neck Lift, Buccal Fat Removal & Endoscopic Brow Lift Before and After | Early 40s Facial Rejuvenation
In her early 40s, this patient wanted a refreshed, lifted appearance while maintaining her natural facial identity. She underwent a deep plane facelift and neck lift combined with an endoscopic brow lift and buccal fat removal to restore definition, elevate facial structure, and create a more sculpted, youthful contour. Her before and after results show a smoother jawline, tighter neck, elevated brow position, and improved midface support without looking overdone or "pulled." Deep plane facelift surgery works beneath the superficial facial layers to reposition deeper facial structures for longer-lasting, more natural-looking rejuvenation. The addition of an endoscopic brow lift helped open and brighten the upper face while maintaining a soft, feminine appearance. Buccal fat removal further refined the lower cheeks and jawline, enhancing facial balance and contour. These results highlight how modern facial rejuvenation surgery can subtly reverse early signs of aging while preserving expression, movement, and individuality.

Case dpfl3-2026
Endoscopic Brow Lift, Deep Plane Facelift & Neck Lift Before and After
This patient wanted to look lifted, rested, and sharper. The goal was never to restore structure where the face had started to soften and descend over time. She underwent an endoscopic brow lift along with a deep plane facelift and neck lift to naturally reposition the deeper tissues of the face instead of just tightening skin. One of the biggest details with this approach is how much precision goes into the deeper layers of the face. The deep plane technique allows the cheeks, jawline, and neck to be lifted together in a way that follows the patient's natural anatomy, which is why the result looks softer and more believable. You can see the difference in the jawline definition, the neck contour, and the way the midface looks supported without looking heavy or pulled. The brow lift was done endoscopically through tiny hidden incisions, which helped open and brighten the eyes while still keeping her expression natural. Nothing looks frozen or over-elevated. Every angle was considered carefully — especially how the face moves, how the skin redrapes, and how light hits the contours of the cheeks and jawline after healing.

Case 75234
Secondary Lower Face and Neck Lift
At 50 years old, this patient underwent a secondary lower facelift and neck lift after having a previous face and neck lift performed by another surgeon nearly 10 years earlier. Performed comfortably in-office under local anesthesia, her updated “uptick” refreshed the jawline and neck while maintaining a natural, elegant appearance that still looks like her. These before-and-after photos, shown six months post-op, highlight smoother contours through the lower face, improved neck definition, and subtle rejuvenation without looking pulled or overdone. Secondary facelift procedures require a highly specialized understanding of facial anatomy, scar tissue, and prior surgical alterations in order to safely restore youthful structure and support while preserving facial identity.

Case 79318
Deep Plane Lower Face and Neck Lift
At 54 years old, this patient wanted improvement in her neck, jawline, jowling, and the heavy appearance through her lower face. She also struggled with deep acne scarring along the lower cheeks that had not responded to previous laser treatments, including fractionated CO2 resurfacing. Just two months after her lower facelift and neck lift, her results already show a dramatically more defined jawline, smoother neck contour, and a softer, more heart-shaped facial appearance rather than a bottom-heavy one. Her incisions were carefully hidden around the ears and inside the tragus, making them nearly imperceptible even early in healing. With minimal bruising and swelling, she was able to return to normal activities within about a week after surgery.

Case 104569
Deep Plane Face and Neck Lift with Upper and Lower Bleph, Lower with Fat Transposition
At 55 years old, this patient is shown six months after a deep plane lower facelift and neck lift combined with upper and lower blepharoplasties, fat transposition beneath the eyes, facial fat grafting, and fractionated CO2 resurfacing. Her results show a smoother, more sculpted jawline, softened heaviness through the lower face and neck, brighter under-eyes, and improved skin texture throughout the central face without looking overdone or surgically tight. Volume restoration through fat grafting helped recreate softer facial contours, while CO2 resurfacing refined fine lines and crepey skin around the eyes. She does still have visible submandibular glands on profile view, which she elected not to have reduced.
