Dr. Fabíola Baras

Dr. Baras is listed as a member of SBCP (Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery) and ASPS (the American Society of Plastic Surgeons). DeepPlane.com records these memberships as listed and holds no board certification record for the surgeon, so each society's own member search is the place to confirm current standing.

Facial surgery sits at the center of the practice's published treatment list. The website describes the facelift, known technically as rhytidectomy (surgical lifting of the face and neck), as a way to address midface laxity, deep folds from the nose to the corners of the mouth, descended fat, jowling and loose skin under the chin and jawline.

Related procedures appear alongside the facelift in the practice's materials. The site notes that brow lifting and eyelid surgery are often performed together with a facelift, and it also describes a lip lift for perioral rejuvenation (refreshing the area around the mouth).

The deep plane facelift is the reason Dr. Fabíola Baras appears in this directory. In a deep plane approach, the surgeon works beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a fibrous layer under the skin and fat) so that tissue repositioning happens at a deeper level rather than by pulling the skin alone.

Deep anatomical repositioning is a recurring theme in the practice's own public posts. One published piece discusses facial surgery under the heading of deep anatomical repositioning and recovery, which aligns with the deep plane principle of moving sagging tissue back toward its younger position.

Open discussion of risk is a stated part of the practice's consultation philosophy. In posts on Instagram at @drafabiolabaras, the practice argues that honest conversation about surgery means laying out every risk clearly — not to alarm patients, but so they can decide with full information.

Before-and-after images are framed with caution by the practice. Its published view is that such photos cannot replace a consultation, because only a personal assessment shows what is possible for a given face, what needs adapting and what limits apply.

Facial aging happens in layers, and that idea shapes how deep plane candidates are assessed. Skin, fat, the SMAS and the platysma (the thin neck muscle that can form visible bands) each change over time, so a plan that treats only the surface may not address the deeper causes of a tired or heavy look.

Recovery is a major consideration for patients weighing this surgery. A deep plane facelift generally involves swelling and bruising in the first weeks, a gradual return to normal activities and a final result that settles over several months; the recovery section of this profile explains that timeline in more detail.

Curitiba itself shapes the experience of having surgery here. The capital of Paraná state is known for its urban planning, parks and calm pace, and visitors from elsewhere in Brazil and abroad often find it a quiet, orderly place to rest after facial surgery.

Deep plane surgery is often discussed by patients in their mid-fifties and sixties. At this stage, many people notice jowls, neck laxity and midface descent together, which is the combination a deep approach is designed to address, and a detailed consultation helps decide whether surgery is the right step.
