Natural, Painless and Fast: My Deep Plane Facelift with Dr. Fernández Blanco
Three months ago, I underwent a deep plane cervicofacial lift (facial and neck lift) combined with a brow lift performed by Dr. Alfredo Fernández Blanco, and I can truly say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Not only because of the visible results that exceeded my expectations, but also because of the entire journey—from the trust I felt in our first consultation to the incredibly professional and human post-operative care.
What attracted me the most from the beginning was his exclusive 3R technique (Rapid Recovery Rejuvenation) using the Deep Plane approach. I had researched a lot about traditional facelift techniques, but I was looking for something that could rejuvenate my face without altering my natural expression—and that’s exactly what I found.
The surgery went smoothly under general anesthesia. I remember waking up feeling calm, with no pain at all—just a gentle warm sensation on my face. Within the first 24 hours, I received all necessary care and very clear instructions. My bandages were removed that same afternoon, and I immediately noticed the precision and delicacy of the work. I left the clinic looking as if I hadn't just had a nearly 4-hour facial surgery.
Two days before the procedure, I had a pre-surgery Indiba skin preparation treatment, and follow-up sessions after the surgery. These were essential for a smooth and healthy recovery. It’s not just the surgical act that makes the difference—it’s the comprehensive, holistic approach offered by Dr. Alfredo and his highly skilled facial aesthetics team.
In less than a week, I was already functional. I went out wearing tinted sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect from the sun. I followed every instruction religiously, especially staying out of direct sunlight, but I didn’t feel the need to hide away or rest in bed. I was surprised at how fast my body responded.
The stitches were removed around day 7, and by then I could already see the definition of my jawline, firmer neck, and my cheekbones back in place. There was barely any tightness and absolutely no artificial look—which, let’s be honest, is one of our biggest fears with cosmetic surgery.
Ten days in, my friends started saying I looked like I’d taken 10 years off in less than two weeks. I looked fresh and well-rested. That’s the magic of this type of advanced facelift technique—it restores youth without erasing your identity.
By the one-month mark, my face had reached a new equilibrium. The swelling had gone down almost completely, and the scars were practically invisible. I was back to my skincare routine and I noticed my skin was brighter, firmer, and more alive.
Today, three months post-op, I look in the mirror and feel proud. My jawline is defined, my neck is tight, my cheeks are lifted, and the best part—no one says I look "operated." People just say I look great, like something changed for the better.
I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Alfredo Fernández Blanco. His work goes beyond aesthetics—it’s deeply human. It’s clear he loves what he does and has spent years perfecting his craft. The 3R technique with Deep Plane approach, paired with his before-and-after support, makes a world of difference. He is without doubt one of the leading facelift surgeons in Europe, a true master in surgical facial rejuvenation.
If you’re looking for a natural-looking facelift, with long-lasting results, minimal downtime, and the peace of mind of being in the hands of a globally recognized expert in deep plane facelift surgery, don’t hesitate to contact the Fernández Blanco Clinic in Spain. His experience in neck lifts, brow lifts, facial harmonization, and rapid recovery facelifts guarantees elegant, personalized results.
For me, it was much more than an aesthetic procedure—it was a gift I gave myself, and one I’ll remember forever as one of the most transformative and rewarding experiences of my life.
