About

With more than two decades in practice, Dr. Josh Korman is a San Jose plastic surgeon who specializes in deep plane facelift surgery and facial rejuvenation. As of October 2026, the surgeon practices in Northern California's Silicon Valley region, serving patients across the Bay Area and beyond.

The deep plane facelift is a technique that repositions the deeper facial tissues rather than simply tightening the skin. Dr. Josh Korman applies this approach to address facial aging at its structural source, working beneath the surface layers for more natural movement.

Dr. Korman completed medical training at the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University. This academic foundation underpins more than 20 years of surgical practice in plastic and reconstructive surgery.

Beyond clinical work, Dr. Josh Korman is listed as serving in an adjunct clinical professor of surgery role. Such a position reflects ongoing engagement with teaching and the academic side of the specialty.

The practice, Korman Plastic Surgery and Wunderbar MedSpa, combines surgical care with non-surgical aesthetic services. This structure lets patients consider everything from a deep plane facelift to less invasive rejuvenation treatments under one roof.

Dr. Korman approaches facial rejuvenation as a question of balance rather than tension. The deep plane method lifts the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue), allowing tissue to be repositioned instead of pulled tight.

Patients considering a deep plane facelift often seek results that age naturally over time. Dr. Josh Korman focuses on outcomes that preserve individual character, avoiding the overly tightened look associated with older facelift methods.

Recovery is a central part of any deep plane facelift conversation. The practice guides patients through a structured healing timeline, with most swelling and bruising easing over the first few weeks.

The surgeon's listed specialties include the deep plane facelift and a broader set of facial rejuvenation procedures. These range from brow and neck lifts to eyelid surgery, each aimed at restoring a refreshed yet recognizable appearance.

Dr. Korman is listed as a member of The Aesthetic Society, an organization focused on aesthetic plastic surgery. Membership in such a body reflects engagement with the specialty's continuing education and standards.

San Jose places Dr. Josh Korman at the center of Silicon Valley, a region known for innovation and discerning patients. The city offers convenient access for those traveling from across California and internationally.

Facial aging is more than skin deep, involving volume loss and tissue descent over time. The deep plane technique that Dr. Korman performs is designed to work with this anatomy rather than against it.

The Weill Cornell background pairs clinical training with a long record of focused aesthetic surgery. Dr. Josh Korman brings this blend of academic grounding and practical experience to each facial rejuvenation plan.

For patients weighing a deep plane facelift, Dr. Korman represents an established option within a competitive Bay Area market. This DeepPlane profile gathers the surgeon's background, approach, and practice details in one place.
