When I google Deep Plane Face lift I can find quite a few surgeons in USA who seem real specialists and experts on this procedure. I was wondering if you can recommend colleagues/surgeons in Europe. I can find so little info online! I also ask this because there is no one to accompany me on a journey this far and long. Given the choice I'd rather stay close(r) to home where I have my insurances etc. fully covered. Thank you so much for your answer!

Answer: The deep plane facelift. Who are the top surgeons in Europe for this specific procedure?
Permanent injury to the facial nerve that governs facial movement is very rare in facelift surgery. The incidence is no greater when the deep plane technique is employed.
I suspect the main reason why 3 surgeons have recommended SMAS facelift while only 1 surgeon has recommended deep plane facelift is that the surgeons will recommend the procedures they are most comfortable performing. A much smaller fraction of facelift surgeons perform true deep plane facelift...
Thank you for your question.If you have such a question then in my view it is best to go and see your surgeon. Only him alone knows what was done during surgery and if I suggested any possible causes for your symptoms that would be pure conjecture.Hope all works out well for you.Kind regards.
