PERSPECTIVES FROM Dr. Turner

natural-lookingpersonalizeddeep-planeevidence-basedcomprehensive

Signature technique

Dr. Scott J Turner is renowned for his expertise in the deep plane facelift technique, which he considers a significant advancement in facial rejuvenation surgery. Unlike more traditional methods that primarily address superficial tissues, his approach involves working beneath the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer. This allows for the precise repositioning of deeper facial structures, effectively addressing multiple signs of aging such as jowl formation, midface descent, and neck laxity. Dr. Turner's meticulous execution of this comprehensive tissue repositioning aims to achieve natural-looking results by respecting the patient's unique anatomy and aging patterns.

Ask Dr. Turner about the technique

Recovery view

Dr. Turner emphasizes a meticulously structured approach to patient recovery, integrating comprehensive protocols that begin with thorough pre-operative assessments and extend through precise surgical techniques. His philosophy centers on optimizing outcomes and minimizing potential complications through this organized post-operative care. Patients consistently highlight feeling super cared for throughout their surgical journey, reflecting the practice's commitment to attentive support. This structured framework ensures that each patient receives dedicated guidance and monitoring, forming a robust foundation for healing and achieving the best possible results. The focus on patient safety is paramount, guiding every stage of the recovery process to ensure a smooth and effective return to daily life.

Who is a candidate

Dr. Turner's approach to patient candidacy is highly personalized, focusing on each individual's unique anatomy and specific aging patterns to develop tailored surgical plans. He evaluates patients seeking facial rejuvenation, particularly those who could benefit from the deep plane facelift to address concerns like jowl formation, midface descent, and neck laxity. His practice philosophy extends to comprehensive patient care, often collaborating with other aesthetic practitioners to ensure a holistic treatment strategy that may include both surgical and non-surgical solutions. Furthermore, Dr. Turner demonstrates a commitment to evidence-based practice and patient education, as evidenced by his discussions on topics like filler migration, ensuring candidates are well-informed.

Read more ▾

Dr. Turner is listed as a member of the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, reflecting a professional commitment to aesthetic standards and ongoing peer accountability within his field.

His clinical focus centers on the deep plane facelift, a technique that repositions the deeper facial tissues rather than simply tightening the skin surface. This approach aims to restore natural contour to the midface and jawline.

Deep plane facelift surgery works beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of muscle and connective tissue), allowing the surgeon to lift and reposition sagging tissue as a unified structure.

Dr. Turner's practice extends across Sydney, Brisbane, and Canberra, giving Australian patients several points of access to consultation and follow-up care throughout their surgical journey.

Beyond facial rejuvenation, Dr. Turner's surgical repertoire includes rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, neck lift procedures, and a range of breast and body operations, though his public commentary emphasizes facial work.

Dr. Turner has contributed to professional discussions on the ethics of aesthetic surgery, including a widely referenced conversation on whether patients should trust online reviews of surgeons.

His approach to facial aging treats the face as an integrated structure, addressing volume loss, tissue descent, and skin laxity together rather than in isolation. This philosophy underpins the deep plane methodology.

Dr. Turner emphasizes patient education during the consultation process, encouraging realistic expectations about what surgery can and cannot achieve for each individual face.

Recovery from a deep plane facelift is a gradual process, and Dr. Turner's team guides patients through each stage, from the initial swelling in the first two weeks to the settling of final results over several months.

The deep plane technique is regarded within the field as one of the more technically demanding facelift approaches, requiring detailed knowledge of facial anatomy and the nerves that traverse the deeper tissue planes.

Dr. Turner's Sydney base places him within a competitive Australian aesthetic surgery market, where patients increasingly seek longer-lasting, natural-looking results from experienced specialists.

His engagement with professional bodies and public education signals a surgeon oriented toward transparency and measured communication rather than promotional excess.

For women considering facial rejuvenation, Dr. Turner represents an established Sydney option whose credentials, specialization, and clinical focus align with the priorities of patients seeking deep plane facelift surgery in Australia.

If I could give 100 stars out of 5, I absolutely would!! Dr. Turner is an AMAZING surgeon. From the moment I first met him, I knew he would be the doctor for me. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and answered every single question I had. I never once felt like I couldn’t ask him something or that I was being rushed. I am SO happy with my results so far, and I’m incredibly grateful for the care and support Dr. Turner and his team, Amy and Jacinta, have shown me throughout the entire process. Thank you for changing my life! ❤️

I cannot recommend Dr Turner highly enough. My journey started with Jacinta his receptionist, who was incredibly understanding and listened to my difficult past experiences trying to find a surgeon for a complex rhinoplasty and septoplasty revision. Other surgeons had turned me away or quoted impossible prices, but Jacinta quickly organised an interstate Zoom meeting with Dr Turner. I strongly believe the staff are a reflection of a surgeon's manner, and Jacinta's kindness and professionalism proved that. Dr Turner was warm, welcoming, and completely transparent. I was initially reluctant to show my goal images because a previous doctor who had even given me a digital morph of what he could achieve pulled out of my surgery just two weeks prior, claiming my expectations were all of a sudden unrealistic, despite them reflecting his digital morph. Dr Turner was the complete opposite. He listened to me, validated my expectations, and gave me absolute confidence in his abilities. Surgery went perfectly in May. I am now three months post-op and already thrilled. My breathing is amazing at such an early stage, and my nose is starting to take shape. Dr Turner thoroughly explained that my swelling will take 12 to 18 months to fully go down, leaving no stone unturned or questions unanswered. Because I live interstate, Dr Turner is also happy to accommodate me by doing follow-up calls via Zoom so I do not have to travel unless there is an issue. I could not recommend him more highly and hold such respect for him. Dr Turner is an extremely talented, kind, and compassionate surgeon who genuinely cares about all patients, including complex ones. Thank you so much Dr Turner.

I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars — Dr Turner deserves 100. After a previous bad experience, I needed corrective surgery and was extremely anxious going into the process. Dr Turner came highly recommended to me, and from the moment I had my consultation, I knew I was in the best hands. He took the time to explain everything so thoroughly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident moving forward. I had consultations with other surgeons, but Dr Turner is truly a cut above the rest. I’m now 2 days post-op and already so excited about my results. The care, professionalism, and attention to detail have been incredible. I genuinely can’t say enough good things about Dr Turner. If you’re looking for the best surgeon, this is your doctor.
