Deep plane full face lift can lift cheek too, but not vertical way as midface lift. Is it common to have both procedure together for max result ?
Answer: Midface Lift is a Historical Procedure A properly performed deep plane facelift is self volumizing, raising the malar pad and achieving cheek fullness. If further volume is required, injection of Sculptra (my preference) or fat can help to provide more fullness. An endoscopic midface lift provides no additional benefit, although it does add risk and isn't talked about or performed very much in 2023.

Answer: Deep plane facelift with midface lift It is not uncommon to have both of these procedures done at the same time. While certainly not the best or right option for some patients, it does work and can be done for those who do need more of a vertical lift at the midface/cheek area. Part of that will depend on the extent of the descent of the tissues of the cheek and malar area, and the best way to lift them to the more youthful anatomic area. Part of it will depend on which physician you see and how they treat things.Best of luck.Dr. Doug Henstrom, Utah Facial Plastics

Answer: Face Lift Hello ! Thank you for your questionwithout your face photos it is very hard to make an evaluation of your case. If you could provide photos and more information I would be able to evaluate your case in a more appropriate way. But from my experience a single operation can be enough, facelifting or midface completely depends on the result you want to get,here surgeon experience is very important. Thank you regards

Answer: Endoscopic midface lift and deep plane full face lift Thank you for your question. Although the deep plane facelift is not a formal mid-face lift it has a very strong component of mid-face elevation. As such, combining the deep plane facelift and mid-face lift is generally unnecessary but there may be compelling reasons why this treatment could be indicated. This could be for instance to incorporate treatment for a more problematic corrective lower eyelid blepharoplasty that requires extensive mobilisation in the mid-face. Combining the deep plane facelift with the temporal lift enhances the mid-face elevation options and probably matches or exceeds the effect of many mid-face lift interventions.

Answer: Technique of face lift There are multiple, usually not very different way to perform face lift. Deep plane face lift is one of them; many surgeons do not use it these days. When face lift is performed, regardles of the technique, cheek lift should be part of it, if needed. Augmentation of the cheeks with fat grafts in the same procedure, have significantly reduce the need for cheek lift, since it is a deflation rather than true sagging that causes cheek flatness. However, only on the basis of in person consultation, a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in facial rejuvenation will be able to discuss the best options for you. Do not be surprised if you hear different opinon about techniques. Select the surgeon you trust and let her (him) decide about technique. Hope this helps. Good luck.
