There are traditional facelifts, and then there is the deep plane facelift. Perhaps you have heard or seen that marketing statement plenty of times over the years, and how the deep plane facelift is the proverbial gold standard in facial rejuvenation.
But what does that mean exactly? Sure, it’s got your attention. You were already thinking about a facelift to address common signs of aging, like sagging skin, jowls, and deep wrinkles, and reclaim the youthful and energetic face you used to see in the mirror.
But what makes the deep plane facelift so much better?
Deep Plane Facelift: A Deeper Level of Precision
It should first be noted that there is nothing wrong with traditional facelifts. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, approximately 78,000 to 125,000 facelifts are performed each year in the United States. And these aren’t stagnant numbers, either. The procedure’s popularity has also surged—and for good reason. A traditional facelift is highly effective at tightening sagging skin and allows your plastic surgeon to make additional adjustments to the superficial layer of the skin.
That said, the keyword here is “superficial layer.” The superficial musculloaponeurotic system, to be exact—often referred to as the SMAS layer. It sits just beneath the skin and plays a key role in facial support and movement.
The deep plane facelift addresses the tissues and ligaments beneath the SMAS layer. These foundational underlying muscles and connective tissues are at the root of excessive aging but are often left untouched in traditional facelifts. With the deep plane facelift in Fort Worth, our plastic surgeons at Clearfork Plastic Surgery lift and reposition these muscles and soft tissues as a single unit, rather than focusing solely on the top layer and simply “pulling skin” to achieve your desired look.
And trust us when we say the benefits are practically endless:
- No more “just tightening what’s on the surface”
- The ability to reposition the underlying facial structures
- More precise, natural results
- Longer-lasting results than a traditional facelift
Experience Matters With a Deep Plane Facelift
The deep plane facelift may be the new gold standard in facial rejuvenation, but that doesn’t mean everyone can perform it. It is easily one of the most technically advanced and challenging versions of a facelift—because you’re dealing with the delicate ligaments and tissues on a much deeper level. Therefore, only board-certified plastic surgeons with extensive surgical training and a detailed understanding of facial anatomy, who know what makes the most sense for each patient, should attempt it.
When performed by an experienced plastic surgeon, the deep plane facelift can deliver dramatic yet subtle improvements that let you look like yourself—just refreshed and more youthful. And perhaps no one is better than Clearfork Plastic Surgery in Fort Worth.
