Considering a Deep Plane Facelift?

A deep plane facelift offers a more comprehensive rejuvenation by addressing deeper facial structures for a natural, long-lasting lift. Here are five important aspects to know before your procedure.

1. Will I Need Future Touch-Ups?

A deep plane facelift provides long-lasting results, often lasting over a decade. However, the natural aging process will continue, and you may require touch-up procedures in the future to maintain your desired look. Combining your facelift with non-surgical treatments like Botox® or dermal fillers can help prolong your results.

2. What Will My Immediate Results Look Like?

After surgery, expect significant swelling and bruising around the treated areas. This is normal and will gradually subside over several weeks to months. As the swelling decreases, your more youthful and natural appearance will become more apparent, revealing your final results.

3. How Will Surgery Affect My Daily Routine?

Recovery from a deep plane facelift requires a longer downtime compared to other facelifts. Plan to take at least three to four weeks off work and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks. Light activities such as walking are encouraged to promote healing. Following your surgeon's post-operative care instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery.

4. Is Post-Surgery Pain Normal?

Mild to moderate discomfort and tightness in the treated areas are common after a deep plane facelift. Your facelift plastic surgeon will provide pain management options to ease any discomfort. Applying cold compresses as instructed can also help reduce swelling and enhance comfort.

5. What Lifestyle Changes Should I Expect Post-Surgery?

Post-surgery, it's essential to protect your skin from sun exposure and avoid activities that strain the treated areas. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise can support the healing process and enhance the longevity of your deep-plane facelift results.
