Her medical education began at Dicle University Faculty of Medicine, and her career reflects nearly two decades of surgical practice. Over that period, she has developed a clinical focus that spans both facial and body aesthetic surgery.
The deep plane facelift is one of the procedures Dr. Tunç performs — a technique that addresses the deeper structural layers of the face rather than surface skin alone. This approach targets facial aging at its source, working beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a supportive layer of muscle and connective tissue).
Dr. Tunç approaches facial rejuvenation as a matter of restoring natural contours rather than pulling skin tight. The deep plane method repositions tissue as a unit, which many surgeons consider a more anatomically sound path to a refreshed, natural appearance.

Dr. Tunç's Surgical Approach
The deep plane facelift performed by Dr. Süphan Tunç works beneath the skin's surface to reposition the deeper facial tissues as a single unit.
The deep plane facelift performed by Dr. Süphan Tunç works beneath the skin's surface to reposition the deeper facial tissues as a single unit. This distinguishes it from older facelift techniques that primarily tightened skin, which could produce an over-pulled appearance.
At the heart of the deep plane technique is the SMAS — the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face. Rather than simply tightening this layer, the deep plane method involves dissecting beneath it.
