Dr. Saadat'S PERSPECTIVES
AI-assisted profile summarySignature technique
Dr. David Saadat’s practice is primarily centered on advanced facial rejuvenation, with a distinct emphasis on the deep plane facelift procedure. He utilizes this sophisticated technique to address the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, or SMAS, which is the crucial fibrous layer located beneath the facial skin. Dr. Saadat’s approach involves meticulously releasing and repositioning these deeper facial tissues, including the SMAS layer, to achieve outcomes that are both natural-looking and significantly more enduring than those typically obtained through traditional, more superficial lifting methods. This comprehensive strategy is fundamental to his surgical philosophy.
Ask Dr. Saadat about the techniqueRecovery view
Dr. David Saadat emphasizes that recovery from a deep plane facelift typically involves an initial period of swelling and bruising, which generally lasts between 10 to 14 days. He advises patients that most individuals can comfortably return to their regular social activities within approximately three weeks following the procedure. However, Dr. Saadat also highlights that the final aesthetic outcomes are not immediately apparent, as the tissues require several months to fully settle into their new positions and for the results to completely refine. This gradual process is a key aspect of achieving the desired long-term facial rejuvenation.
Ask Dr. Saadat about your recoveryWho is a candidate
Dr. Saadat's practice focuses on patients seeking advanced facial rejuvenation through deep plane facelift procedures. These individuals typically present with facial aging concerns and desire natural-looking, longer-lasting results, which involve repositioning the deeper facial tissues and the SMAS layer. While the public profile does not specify an ideal age range or details on patient screening criteria such as smoking status or BMI, Dr. Saadat evaluates candidacy on a consultation basis.

Dr. Saadat is listed as board-certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (ABOHNS), a certification relevant to surgeons who operate on the delicate structures of the face and neck. This training informs his approach to facial aging.
The deep plane facelift is a central part of Dr. Saadat's surgical focus. This technique works beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face) to reposition tissue rather than simply tightening the skin.
Dr. Saadat's approach emphasizes tissue repositioning over surface tension. By releasing and lifting the deeper layers, the deep plane method aims to restore youthful contours in the cheeks, jawline, and neck while avoiding the pulled appearance associated with older techniques.

The deep plane technique works beneath the SMAS, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, which is the fibrous and muscular layer that gives the face its support and shape. By operating in the plane below this layer, the surgeon can lift the face as a single connected unit.
