Dr. Christina Yver approaches the deep plane facelift with a focus on comprehensive facial rejuvenation, aiming to restore a youthful contour that appears natural and long-lasting. This advanced surgical technique addresses the deeper structures of the face, rather than merely tightening the skin.

Her methodology involves precise sub-SMAS dissection, where the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) layer (a fibrous tissue layer that covers the muscles of the face) is lifted and repositioned. This differs from traditional facelifts that often separate the skin from the SMAS, which can lead to a pulled or unnatural appearance.
