As the quest for youthful, natural-looking facial rejuvenation continues to evolve, the deep plane facelift has emerged as a groundbreaking technique in cosmetic surgery. Unlike traditional facelifts that primarily tighten the skin, the deep plane facelift focuses on lifting and repositioning deeper structures such as muscles, fat, and connective tissues. This advanced approach not only addresses sagging cheeks, nasolabial folds, and jowls but also ensures longer-lasting and more natural results. Dr. Myung Ju Lee, a pioneer in this field, has been delivering exceptional outcomes with the deep plane technique, making it a superior choice for those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

What Is a Facelift?

A deep plane facelift is an advanced surgical technique designed to rejuvenate the face by lifting and repositioning deeper structures, such as muscles, fat, and connective tissues, rather than just tightening the skin. This approach effectively addresses sagging cheeks, nasolabial folds, and jowls, providing more natural and longer-lasting results compared to traditional facelift methods.

Dr. Myung Ju Lee is the first plastic surgeon to perform Deep Plane Facelift in Korea. Previously, he has been performing various facelift techniques such as High-SMAS Facelift, and now delivering the best result through the Deep Plane technique.

Why Choose a Deep Plane Facelift?

1. Long-lasting Effects:

This technique addresses the root causes of facial aging by lifting and supporting deeper structures, leading to longer-lasting results. Patients can enjoy their rejuvenated appearance for many years.

2. Natural-Looking Results:

The deep plane facelift focuses on lifting the deeper layers of the face, allowing for a more natural-looking rejuvenation. By repositioning the underlying tissues, rather than simply pulling the skin tight, the results are smooth and free from the overly “pulled” appearance often associated with traditional facelifts.

3. Comprehensive Rejuvenation:

The deep plane facelift targets multiple areas of the face, including the midface, lower face, and neck. This comprehensive approach ensures balanced and harmonious rejuvenation, improving the overall facial contour and reducing sagging.

4. Reduced Skin Tension:

Traditional facelifts primarily tighten the skin, which can sometimes lead to increased tension and a less natural look. The deep plane technique reduces this skin tension by focusing on deeper tissues, resulting in a more relaxed and youthful appearance.

5. Enhanced Midface Lift:

One of the key advantages of the deep plane facelift is its effectiveness in lifting the midface area, including the cheeks. This results in a more youthful contour and a reduction in the appearance of nasolabial folds.

6. Improved Healing and Recovery:

Although it is a more involved procedure, the deep plane facelift often results in a smoother recovery. By lifting the deeper layers, the skin experiences less trauma and tension, potentially leading to less bruising and swelling.

7. Personalized Approach:

The deep plane facelift can be customized to the unique needs and facial structure of each patient. Surgeons can adjust the technique to target specific areas of concern, providing a tailored and individualized result.
