Signature technique

La technique de prédilection du Dr Canlı est le deep plane facelift, une procédure avancée de rajeunissement facial qu'il met au cœur de sa pratique. Cette méthode sophistiquée va au-delà du simple resserrement cutané superficiel : elle vise plutôt à repositionner les structures faciales profondes, notamment la couche SMAS (système musculo-aponévrotique superficiel). Le Dr Canlı souligne que cette technique exige une connaissance anatomique approfondie et une précision chirurgicale rigoureuse afin d'obtenir des résultats optimaux. En agissant sur les couches musculaires et fasciales sous-jacentes, il cherche à offrir un rajeunissement facial plus complet et d'apparence naturelle, en accord avec l'orientation actuelle de la médecine esthétique vers des résultats durables et harmonieux pour l'ensemble de sa patientèle.

The deep plane facelift technique employed by surgeons like Dr. Mert Canlı involves precise dissection beneath the SMAS layer to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. This advanced approach differs significantly from traditional facelift methods by addressing the deeper anatomical structures that contribute to facial aging.

The SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) serves as a fibromuscular layer that connects facial muscles to overlying skin. In deep plane techniques, surgeons work beneath this layer, allowing for more natural tissue repositioning without tension on the skin surface.

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.
