The deep plane facelift is our signature treatment at the offices of Dr Honeybrook Facial Plastic Surgery in Sydney and Brisbane. Dr. Honeybrook is Australia’s only US triple-boarded specialist in head and neck and cosmetic surgery, specialising in facial plastic surgery. His considerable and unique level of knowledge and training is further demonstrated by his work with pioneering experts in this revolutionary facelift technique: Drs Andrew Jacono and Kevin Duplechain. So, one of the world’s top experts in this alternative to the standard facelift is within reach. Before you schedule a consultation with us, it is our privilege to acquaint you with three key ways the deep plane approach is a stand-out revolutionary alternative to traditional surgical techniques.
If you are ready for a facelift and are an appropriate candidate, Dr. Honeybrook will elevate and lift the muscles and skin as a combined flap. This process keeps the skin attached to the deep muscle layers. There are many benefits to this approach. It promotes a more natural appearance by minimising the risk of an overly “tight” appearance. It furthermore effectively repositions the tissues along the jawline (jowls) to the mid-face or cheek area, which reduces the bulky or heavy appearance of the lower face. Facial balance is restored for a more rejuvenated, attractive look.
Traditional facelifts focus on elevating and repositioning the skin and superficial layers of tissue. Not so with the deep plane facelift. True to its name, this surgery elevates and repositions the deeper, fibrous layers. These layers lose elasticity as the body produces fewer structural components that naturally promote tight, smooth skin. This technique treats the source of facial laxity. As a result of resolving these underlying structural changes, a deep plane lift generally outlasts other facelift methods. It is not unusual for our patients to continue to look refreshed yet naturally rejuvenated for 10 to 15 years or longer. This consideration often makes the deep plane lift cost-effective compared to nonsurgical treatments and traditional facelift techniques.
The deep plane method is also associated with less noticeable scarring. These “reminders” of past surgery do not separate or migrate with time, which may occur with other facelift techniques.
