Dr. Akıncı's Surgical Approach

The deep plane facelift technique employed by surgeons like Dr. Kadri Akıncı represents an evolution in facial rejuvenation surgery.

The deep plane facelift technique employed by surgeons like Dr. Kadri Akıncı represents an evolution in facial rejuvenation surgery. This advanced procedure addresses facial aging by repositioning the SMAS layer and its associated structures rather than simply tightening superficial tissues.

The SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) forms a crucial anatomical plane in the face, connecting facial muscles to overlying skin. During deep plane dissection, the surgeon carefully releases specific ligaments that tether this layer, allowing for comprehensive repositioning of facial tissues.

Recovery from a deep plane facelift typically involves 2-3 weeks of initial healing, with most visible bruising resolving within 7-10 days and sutures removed at days 7-10. International patients can generally travel home after 10-14 days once swelling has stabilised and wound checks are complete.

Deep plane facelift results typically last 10-15 years, significantly longer than traditional SMAS or mini-facelift procedures, which tend to last 5-8 years.
