4.9 / 5 · 101 Google reviewsNatural methods, reliable expert team. Always our first choice, Professor Ayaz 🙏❤️
I met Dr. Ayaz Aslan about 7 years ago. Since then, I've confidently referred everyone I know who's considering cosmetic procedures to him. All the procedures he performs are very natural and truly produce amazing results. I had a full facelift with him two years ago. Now, nobody can guess my age 😊 My face looks very natural, understated, and exactly as I imagined. The fact that Dr. Ayaz is also a microsurgery specialist is a huge advantage; there isn't even the slightest scar. He's a doctor I'm so glad I met, both for his medical skills and his humanity. I wholeheartedly recommend him 💙
I am so happy to have such a wonderful doctor. Thank you so much for your patience and everything you've done. 🙂❤️

Dr. Ayaz Aslan approaches the deep plane facelift by working beneath the SMAS layer to reposition facial tissues as a cohesive unit. This technique targets the structural causes of facial aging rather than simply tightening the skin surface.
The SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) is a continuous layer of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face. In the deep plane method, the surgeon releases and elevates this layer along with the overlying skin, allowing deeper tissues to be lifted together.
