Can you believe this is just one week post-op? 🤩 We removed this patient’s stitches 7 days after her deep plane lower face & neck lift, and are already seeing tremendous healing.
Why did we opt for a deep plane vs. a traditional facelift for this patient?
Unlike a traditional facelift where the skin and deeper tissue layers are lifted separately, a deep plane facelift moves the skin, muscles, and SMAS all together as one unit. It goes even deeper to release the face’s supporting ligaments, allowing the lower face to be repositioned for results that look naturally refreshed and last longer.
Over the next few weeks, swelling will continue to settle and her results will get better each passing day. By 3-6 months, the real results will begin to shine through! ✨
