Gloria Marchese, MD

Sapienza University of Rome, founded in 1303 and one of Europe's oldest universities, is where Dr. Marchese completed medical education, according to the information DeepPlane holds. Its medical faculty has trained generations of Italian physicians and remains a central institution in the country's healthcare system.

The MioDottore profile describes Dr. Marchese as a Senior Resident in Maxillofacial Surgery, currently collaborating with Plastic Surgery Academy as a surgeon and aesthetic physician. That combination — hospital-based maxillofacial work alongside an aesthetic practice — is directly relevant to surgery of the aging face.

Dr. Marchese is listed as a member of three professional bodies: Plastic Surgery Academy, the European Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery (EAFPS) and the Associazione Italiana di Chirurgia Plastica Estetica (AICPE). These memberships are as reported to DeepPlane and have not been independently confirmed.

DeepPlane holds no board certification record for Dr. Marchese at this time. That absence is not evidence either way, so readers who want confirmation can check the FNOMCeO national register of Italian physicians and the relevant specialist and European board listings directly.

Deep plane facelift sits at the centre of the surgeon's listed aesthetic work. This form of rhytidectomy (the medical term for a facelift) releases and lifts the deeper SMAS layer (the sheet of muscle and connective tissue beneath the skin) rather than pulling on the skin alone.

Beyond the facelift, Dr. Marchese's listed specialties include neck lift, periorbital rejuvenation, lip lift and fractional CO2 laser resurfacing. Treatment of orbital bone fractures also appears on the list — a reconstructive skill that calls for detailed knowledge of the bones and soft tissue around the eyes.

Conditions named on the MioDottore profile include blepharoptosis (a drooping upper eyelid), blepharochalasis (excess eyelid skin), basal cell carcinoma, localized fat deposits and couperose (visible facial redness). This mix spans aesthetic, reconstructive and skin-related care of the face.

A maxillofacial background matters for facial aging because the face ages in layers, from bone to fat to skin. Surgeons trained in the facial skeleton are used to thinking about structural support and tissue repositioning together, rather than treating sagging skin as an isolated problem.

For patients in their fifties and sixties, the aim of a deep plane facelift is usually a rested, natural result rather than a pulled look. Combining the facelift with neck or eyelid work is common, and the surgeon's listed range allows those questions to be discussed in a single consultation.

Recovery after a deep plane facelift generally involves one to two weeks of visible swelling and bruising. Patients often plan for several weeks before important social events, with final results settling over a number of months; individual timelines depend on which procedures are combined.

Appointments can be booked in person or as a virtual consultation through the MioDottore platform, according to that profile. Dr. Marchese also shares work on Instagram at @dr.gloriamarchese, where prospective patients can get a sense of the surgeon's aesthetic approach.

Rome offers a calm, beautiful setting for both consultation and recovery, with established private clinics and good international flight links. Anyone considering surgery in the city is encouraged to confirm credentials, ask about the surgical facility and review the full treatment plan in writing before booking.
