Extended Deep Plane Facelift Case 8

Gender
Female

Description

This patient in her late-50s was seeking comprehensive rejuvenation as aging had added bulk and heaviness to her neck, jowling to her jawline, and hooding/shadowing to her beautiful eyes. As a retired professional dancer, she reminisced about the feeling of grace and elegance every time she took stage – how she longed to feel that way again.

She is seen here 4 months post-operatively from the following procedures:

  • Extended deep plane facelift – to sharpen the jawline, lift droopy cheeks, and alleviate jowls
  • Deep structural neck lift with platysmaplasty – to trim and tighten drooping platysma muscle, debulk submandibular glands and create an elegant neck contour
  • Temporal lift – to open up and brighten the outer corners of the eye
  • Upper blepharoplasty – to trim excess skin that was causing eyelid hooding and heaviness
  • Lower blepharoplasty with fat transposition – to remove undereye bags while simultaneously restoring volume to the hollow tear trough region and brightening the dark circles
