Deep Plane Facelift: Advanced Facial Rejuvenation Technique

A deep plane facelift is an advanced cosmetic surgical procedure designed to restore a youthful, rested appearance to an aging face. This sophisticated technique provides natural-looking facial rejuvenation by addressing multiple layers of facial tissues.

Comprehensive Benefits of Deep Plane Facelift

  • Contouring of the jawline
  • Tightening of the neck
  • Removal of sagging skin
  • Improved definition of facial features
  • More youthful facial appearance
  • Long-lasting surgical results
  • Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles

Surgical Procedure Overview

During a deep plane facelift, Dr. Bridges carefully lifts the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS), simultaneously elevating facial fat and skin. The procedure primarily focuses on the neck and lower two-thirds of the face, addressing multiple facial aging concerns through a comprehensive approach.

Surgical Details and Recovery

The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes several hours. Patients can expect a recovery period of one to two weeks before returning to normal activities. Complete healing and final results gradually develop over several months, with minimal visible scarring.

Ideal Candidates

Deep plane facelifts are generally recommended for individuals over 50 years old seeking significant facial rejuvenation. Candidates should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes.

Expected Results

Patients can anticipate appearing 10 to 15 years younger, with results lasting approximately 10 to 15 years. The procedure strategically redistributes facial fat, smooths skin, and restores natural facial contours.

Dr. Bridges performed my rhinoplasty in June 2024 and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I wanted a rhinoplasty for years but kept putting it off. My tip really bothered me and I felt like it kept drooping more and more over time. I met Dr. Bridges for my consultation and was immediately put at ease. He truly has the best bedside manner. He listened to my concerns and really hit the ball out of the park with my results. I love looking at my new nose in the mirror. My surgery was purely cosmetic, however, I actually feel like I can breathe better after undergoing the procedure. I also want to mention the recovery was way easier than YouTube videos and social media portray it going. Thank you to Dr. Bridges and his wonderful staff for a spectacular experience.

Dr. Bridges reminds me of the old time family doctors…empathetic, competent, efficient. I wish all of my doctors were like him. Additionally, he has surrounded himself with wonderful, compassionate, helpful assistants. Highly recommend.

I originally went in to Dr. Bridges’ office for concerns about chronic sinus and septum issues. I was admittedly most nervous about the anesthesia aspect of surgery, but in general I wasn’t thrilled about the idea of nasal surgery altogether. I pretty immediately felt comfortable with him as a doctor and after some consideration I decided to go with him for a septorhinoplasty instead of a doctor closer to home. Anesthesia portion aside (which did make me feel pretty crummy), the surgery wasn’t bad at all. Pain was minimal and managed with Tylenol. Swelling was definitely present but could have been much worse. No bruising really. The worst part was dry nasal passages and not being able to blow my nose, which was expected. Overall it’s still early days for final judgment, as my surgery was only 3 weeks ago, but I’m very happy to report that my nose looks much straighter and my breathing already feels better than it did pre-surgery.
