Dr. Todd Hanna specializes in the deep plane facelift, an advanced technique that repositions the deeper layers of facial tissue rather than simply tightening the skin. This approach addresses facial aging at its structural source, producing results that tend to look natural and last longer. His clinical interests extend well beyond facelifting. Dr. Hanna performs jaw and orthognathic surgery, custom facial implants, chin and jawline enhancement, neck lift procedures, and reconstructive work following facial trauma or tumor removal.
The deep plane facelift sits at the heart of Dr. Hanna's aesthetic practice. This method works beneath the SMAS (the superficial muscular layer of the face) to lift and reposition tissue as a unit, restoring contour to the cheeks, jawline, and neck. Dr. Todd Hanna is known for a structural approach to facial rejuvenation. Because he treats both the skeleton and the soft tissue, he can consider how the underlying jaw and cheekbones influence the outcome of a facelift — a perspective many surgeons cannot offer.
Recovery is a central part of the conversation in his practice. Dr. Hanna emphasizes realistic timelines, guiding patients through the initial weeks of swelling toward the gradual emergence of final results over several months. His reconstructive experience adds a valuable dimension to his aesthetic work. Having managed facial skin cancer reconstruction, jaw tumors, and microvascular head and neck procedures, Dr. Hanna brings problem-solving skill from some of the most demanding areas of surgery.
Dr. Todd Hanna practices in New York, a city long associated with high standards in aesthetic medicine. His office at 521 Park Avenue places him within one of the most established medical corridors in the United States. Patient care in his practice is highly individualized. Dr. Hanna and his team assess each person's facial anatomy, goals, and health before recommending a surgical plan, whether that involves a deep plane facelift alone or a combination of procedures.
He maintains an active professional presence, having been featured in podcast interviews and academic speaking engagements on oral and maxillofacial surgery. Dr. Hanna has spoken at university settings on surgical management topics alongside respected colleagues. Affluent patients seeking facial rejuvenation often value the combination of aesthetic sensibility and reconstructive depth that Dr. Todd Hanna offers.

What recent patients say
4.9 / 5 · 81 Google reviewsI had the privilege of undergoing extremely complex facial surgery with Dr. Todd Hanna, and I cannot express enough appreciation for the extraordinary level of expertise and care he brings to his work. Dr. Hanna represents a rare combination of surgical mastery and artistic vision. As a dual-degree, double-board-certified maxillofacial and head and neck surgeon with advanced fellowship training in oncologic and microvascular reconstructive surgery, his background allows him to approach the face with a uniquely comprehensive understanding of both structure and aesthetics.  What truly distinguishes Dr. Hanna is his ability to achieve harmony. In complex cases involving custom implants, skeletal adjustments, and delicate balance between bone and soft tissue, he approaches every patient individually with a deeply thoughtful and highly customized surgical plan. The result is not simply technical success, but a natural and harmonious outcome that enhances the overall balance of the face. Equally remarkable is Dr. Hanna’s calm professionalism, precision, and willingness to take the time to explain every aspect of the process. Throughout the entire experience, it was clear that he operates at the highest level of his field. There is a reason why Dr. Hanna is widely regarded by many patients and colleagues as one of the most accomplished maxillofacial surgeons practicing today. His work reflects not only extraordinary technical skill but also a profound understanding of facial harmony and structure. I am deeply grateful for his care and expertise and would recommend Dr. Hanna without hesitation to anyone seeking truly world-class maxillofacial surgery.
Dr. Todd Hanna and his team are extraordinary. After I experienced a jaw fracture and required surgery, I was fortunate to be placed in their care. From the very beginning, when I was still in shock after the accident, Dr. Hanna’s calm presence and confidence immediately put me at ease and reassured me that everything would be okay — and it truly was. Dr. Hanna is not only an exceptionally skilled surgeon, but in many ways an artist. I am still amazed at how he was able to repair my jaw so precisely that there are no visible signs that I ever had surgery. His attention to detail and mastery of his craft are remarkable. Throughout my recovery and follow-up visits over the past year, the entire team consistently showed professionalism, warmth, and remarkable generosity. They made what could have been a very difficult experience feel manageable, and I will always be deeply grateful for their care.
I cant not say more great things about my experience and surgery with Dr. Plana. She was truly everything i was looking for. She is incredible listener, answered ever question and made me feel so comfortable. When i went in for my surgery i felt so good and wasn't nervous at all, i knew she knew my vision. Im beyond happy with my results. The whole team at Hanna Face and Jaw were extremely welcoming and polite. I knew from my consultation i was in the right place.
My wife recently had jaw surgery with Dr. Hanna. Unfortunately, we found Dr. Hanna because her first surgeon did a terrible job, leaving her unhappy and in significant pain. I don’t know all the details of the surgery with Dr. Hanna, but it was life-changing. What I do know is that Dr. Hanna is the most talented and professional Doctor my wife and I have ever met. Dr. Hanna is quite literally the Michael Jordan of surgeons. 12/10.

Dr. Hanna's Surgical Approach
Dr. Todd Hanna approaches the deep plane facelift as a structural procedure rather than a skin-tightening operation.
Dr. Todd Hanna approaches the deep plane facelift as a structural procedure rather than a skin-tightening operation. The technique targets the deeper layers of the face, repositioning tissue at its foundation to restore youthful contour along the cheeks, jawline, and neck.
Central to this method is the SMAS — the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue that sits beneath the skin and above the deeper facial structures. In a deep plane facelift, the surgeon works underneath this layer rather than simply pulling on the surface.
