Dr. Dunne'S PERSPECTIVES
AI-assisted profile summarySignature technique
Dr. Jonathan Dunne's signature technique in facial rejuvenation is the deep plane facelift, which he integrates into his comprehensive focus on facial surgery. This advanced method involves repositioning the deeper facial tissues, specifically targeting the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system), rather than merely tightening the skin. By releasing and lifting these underlying structures as a connected unit across the mid-face, jawline, and neck, Dr. Dunne aims to restore youthful contours and achieve results that appear more natural and are often longer-lasting. This approach is designed to avoid the 'pulled' look sometimes associated with older, skin-only facelift techniques, reflecting his emphasis on anatomical precision and respect for facial nerve anatomy.
