Dr. Ayvazyan's Surgical Approach
Dr. Artem Ayvazyan approaches the deep plane facelift by working beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a fibrous layer of tissue that supports the muscles of the face).
Dr. Artem Ayvazyan approaches the deep plane facelift by working beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a fibrous layer of tissue that supports the muscles of the face). Rather than tightening skin at the surface, the deep plane method releases and repositions this deeper structural layer.
The central principle of the technique is sub-SMAS dissection. This means the surgeon works in a plane below the SMAS, freeing the tissues from their aging attachments so they can be lifted as a single, unified unit.
