Three Weeks After A Preservation Deep Plane Facelift And Neck Lift
Modern facial rejuvenation surgery is not simply about tightening skin — it is about restoring facial balance, proportion, and harmony.
In this patient, I performed a preservation deep plane face and neck lift with fat grafting and facial balancing just three weeks ago. Even at this early stage of recovery, you can already see meaningful improvements in the jawline definition, neck contour, and overall facial balance.
The deep plane facelift is a technique that focuses on repositioning deeper facial structures rather than relying on surface tightening alone. By working in deeper tissue planes and preserving key anatomical structures, surgeons aim to achieve results that appear natural, balanced, and age-appropriate.
However, an important point that is often overlooked is that the name of the technique itself is not what determines the quality of a facelift. Terms like “deep plane,” “SMAS,” or “preservation facelift” describe surgical approaches, but the most important factors remain surgical judgment, anatomical understanding, and artistry.
Every face ages differently, and excellent results come from individualized planning and careful restoration of facial proportions, not simply applying a technique by name.
In this case, fat grafting was used to restore areas of volume loss and improve transitions between the cheeks, jawline, and neck, helping create a smoother and more harmonious facial profile.
At only three weeks after surgery, swelling will continue to settle and the results will continue to mature over the coming months.
