Deep plane facelift chirurgie vereist een nauwkeurig begrip van de gezichtsanatomie, met name de SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) laag.

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.

Dr. Pasquale Bernardi provides a personalised recovery timeline during consultation.

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.
