This is the quintessential facial rejuvenation surgery, where all the major facial structures are repositioned, including the cheek or malar area. It also addresses the improvement of jowls and sagging of soft tissues in the jawline. Excess skin that becomes more apparent over time is removed as well. The deep plane extended technique is a refined method in which the deep musculoaponeurotic system tissue is anchored in a new position, requiring the release of deep or true ligaments such as the zygomatic and mandibular. This approach avoids excessive tension on the skin and the stigmata of rhytidoplasty that were once quite common. It is a procedure known for delivering highly natural results and great harmony to the facial contour.
Currently, this surgery is a global trend due to the incredible results achieved by Hollywood stars who have managed to refresh their faces and make them shine once again on stage. New deep plane techniques, along with careful and tension-free skin closure, help diminish and almost completely reduce the stigmas or side effects that were once seen in patients undergoing this surgery.
