- Results: natural and refreshed: her results were praised for looking natural and refreshed — jawline and neck significantly improved without the telltale distortion of skin-pull techniques

Real Housewives of New York star Sonja Morgan underwent a the deep plane approach by Dr. Andrew Jacono in 2021, documenting her journey on social media. Her results showcased the natural-looking rejuvenation that the deep plane technique can achieve, with a refreshed jawline and neck without the "pulled" appearance. Morgan's openness about her procedure helped normalize facelift discussions among reality TV audiences.
Dr. Andrew Jacono, who performed Morgan's procedure, is one of the leading practitioners of the extended deep plane facelift technique. This approach goes beyond the standard deep plane method by releasing the retaining ligaments of the face more extensively, allowing for a more comprehensive lift of the midface, jowls, and neck in a single procedure. The technique is known for producing longer-lasting, more natural results because it repositions the deeper tissue structures rather than simply tightening the skin[1].
Morgan's decision to document her facelift journey publicly was significant for several reasons. She shared pre-operative photos, recovery updates showing bruising and swelling, and eventual results, giving viewers an honest look at what the facelift process actually entails. This transparency helped demystify the procedure for her audience and set realistic expectations about recovery time, which typically involves 2-3 weeks of visible bruising and swelling before patients feel comfortable returning to public activities.
The results of Morgan's deep plane facelift have been widely praised as an example of excellent surgical outcomes. Her jawline appears more defined, the jowling that had developed was eliminated, and her neck contour was dramatically improved, all while maintaining her natural facial expressions and recognizable features. Her case is frequently cited by Dr. Jacono and other surgeons as evidence of what the deep plane technique can achieve when performed by an experienced specialist[2].
