Скачать или смотреть What is a Deep Plane Facelift?

This animation video, commissioned by Dr. Carl Truesdale, illustrates the deep plane facelift procedure. This is the simplified description of the hundreds of nuanced things that make his technique powerful. A deep plane facelift involves getting under the SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) and vertically lifting the tissues to the desired position.

Dr. Truesdale's technique involves the freeing of the facial muscle layer and neck muscle (platysma) to lift as one sheet vertically. The skin and muscle move together and avoids the need to separate the skin from the muscle to allow the most natural, long lasting, least amount of downtime possible. He will often perform liposuction to remove fat in the neck as well, depending on the patient.

Dr. Truesdale hides his incisions inside the hair and inside the ear cartilage (not on the face). The muscle (SMAS) is completely released from the ligaments in the face and neck which allow vertical movement of the tissues of the face. The muscle is secured and skin trimmed. He will then often elect to also graft fat into the face for a natural fill restoring lost volume.

Patients generally have minimal bruising because there’s less tension put on the skin than a typical facelift. There are fewer blood vessels in the deep plane. A deep plane facelift can provide a very natural, long-lasting result when performed by an expert, Board Certified, facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Carl Truesdale (www.doctortruesdale.com).

Men and women who want to improve multiple signs of aging, such as sagging skin, loose jowls, deflated cheeks, or who want to tighten and lift the skin in combination with a fat-reduction technique like buccal fat removal or neck liposuction, may benefit greatly from this procedure. Patients often look 10-20 years younger after this procedure, and the results are very long-lasting.
