· Those in Istanbul looking to restore a youthful appearance to the face and neck.
· Those who want to reduce deep wrinkles, sagging skin, and jowls.

Deep Plane Facelift is an advanced cosmetic surgical procedure designed to lift and rejuvenate the deeper layers of the face, including fat, connective tissue, and the underlying muscular structure. Unlike traditional or SMAS facelifts, the deep plane technique works beneath the superficial layers to reposition facial tissues and restore natural contours.

This procedure can significantly reduce sagging, jowls, deep folds, and hollowed areas, providing a refreshed and youthful appearance that lasts longer than conventional facelifts. Deep Plane Facelifts are typically customized to each patient’s anatomy and aging patterns and are performed under local anesthesia.

During Deep Plane Facelift, the doctor at our affiliated clinic carefully makes incisions along the hairline, around the ears, and in natural facial creases to access the deeper layers of the face. The procedure involves lifting and repositioning the underlying muscles, fat pads, and connective tissue to restore structural support and improve facial contours. Excess skin is then removed or adjusted, and the remaining skin is redraped smoothly over the newly repositioned tissues.

By working beneath the superficial layer of the skin, this technique reduces tension on the skin, allowing for a more natural, youthful appearance that is long-lasting and addresses both sagging and volume loss simultaneously.
