Considering Surgery? Let's Talk.

This isn’t just a facelift. It’s a smarter, more advanced approach to facial aging. If you’ve caught yourself avoiding photos, tugging at your jawline in the mirror, or wondering when your fillers stopped working, this may be the answer you’ve been looking for.

At The Plastic Surgery Center, our team specializes in deep plane facelift techniques that restore your natural features without over-tightening or overfilling. You’ll still look like yourself—just more rested, sculpted, and confident.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this different from a traditional facelift?
Yes. Deep plane facelifts lift the muscle and connective tissue below the skin, which leads to smoother, more natural contours that last longer.
How long do the results last?
Most patients see results that last 10–15 years, with a more graceful aging process.
Will I look like myself?
Absolutely. This procedure is designed to help you look like a more rested, youthful version of you—not someone else.
Is it painful?
Is it painful?
You’ll be under general anesthesia during the procedure. Most patients manage post-op discomfort with prescribed medication and feel significantly better after the first week.
When will I feel confident being seen in public again?
You’ll likely feel confident being seen in public about 10 to 14 days after a deep plane facelift, once initial swelling and bruising have subsided, though complete healing continues for several weeks.
What if I'm not ready for surgery?
If you’ve had fillers or skin-tightening treatments that no longer give the lift you want, this may be the right next step. But if you’re still early in the aging process, we’ll talk through non-surgical options as well.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer flexible monthly payment plans and a dedicated billing team to walk you through your options.
