Deep Plane Facelift Q&A

I am 72 year old female, 5 ft. 3, 120 lbs. I am concerned about being under IV sedation for 4-5 hours as opposed to 2 hours for the deep plane. Can a deep plane including the neck and under eye bleph be done in 2 hours? Have there been a lot of complications with people being under sedation that long? What is the alternative? Local sedation?

I am 45 years old. I lost weight and my face thinned and skin loosened. Two months ago I had a fat transfer to inner malar region. Since, I have some looseness in my jaw and marionette lines forming! Would a deep plane facelift be most suitable? I want something long lasting. Is it ok to have a procedure like this when I don't have major signs of aging? Thank you.

Im 62 in the process of loosing a big amount of weight like 100 lbs Im mostly bothered by my neck jowls and now my eyelids what would you recommend for me Thank you

I am 54 yrs old. I do not have many facial wrinkles, thankfully, but I do have sagging skin. Am I a good candidate for a lower facelift?

I had a deep plane facelift 1.5 years ago. I have very unusual dents on my face when I smile. It seems like all of the fat in my face has been pushed towards the midline of my face. What is the cause of this? Can it be fixed? Also the shape of my face seems odd, much fuller on the lower half than before.

Is it necessary and/or beneficial to have filler dissolved BEFORE surgery is performed to achieve optimal results?

Hi doctors nearly 2 years ago, I had a deep plane facelift. Since then, I haven't been able to comfortably wear my hair up due to how visible and prominent my scars are. The scar under my chin is, in my opinion, quite bad and the ones near my ears, although technically hidden in the hairline, are sunken or depressed, which actually makes them more noticeable. Im trying to figure out: is this just how these scars typically heal after a deep plane lift, or is this something that could have been avoided or might still be improved? Am I overreacting or is this outcome below expectations? Photos attached. Thank you for your insight.

Hi I had a deep plane facelift 3 months ago along with dissection of the deep and subcutaneous temporal facia and the surgeon also released the orbicularis oculi muscle during the facelift I am not happy with the fact my eyes are now vertically shorter and abit slanted than before I would like to know how permanent are these manuevers? months or years potentially?

Ive recently had an abdominoplasty with breast implant exchange, and am keen to follow it with a facelift. What is the soonest I can do this safely?

im currently 49, I received sculptra first time Sept 2024. I developed a small eye bag about a month after. my injector told me it was aging. I waited till our next appointment in Jan 2025, and she recommended co2 laser for the eye bag which I didnt do, and she didnt attribute it to anyting she had done.,we did the second round of scupltra, within a month I was assymetrical, very puffy on one side, brow ptosis which im unsure how this happened. and the skin under the bag has hollowed out more. she tells me that there is no way scupltra has done this. I what I want to know is when I can get a deep plane lift. im concerned about I consider it now to be recontructive surgery. im afraid the scupltra will react or the surgery cant be done due to adhesions. can I still get a good result now and how long do I need to wait?
