Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS) Fellow Deep Plane Facelift Surgeons
15 active deep plane facelift surgeons in the DEEPPLANE™ directory list FRCS (Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons), a UK fellowship. DEEPPLANE™-verified surgeons are listed first; within each group, surgeons are ordered by the DEEPPLANE™ Score (median 42), with the full country distribution. This is a directory snapshot of what each surgeon lists on their profile — not an official FRCS registry.
What FRCS means & how to verify it
Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS) is a UK fellowship; a surgeon described as a fellow of FRCS has met that body's requirements at the time of listing. DEEPPLANE™ shows FRCS on a profile exactly as the surgeon records it, then groups all 15 such deep plane facelift surgeons here, ranked by the DEEPPLANE™ Score. To verify a specific surgeon, confirm their current standing directly with the certifying body and cross-check their licence with the national medical regulator where they practise. This page reflects the DEEPPLANE™ directory, not an official FRCS register, and credential status can lapse — always confirm before booking.

About FRCS: what it means for a facelift patient
FRCS — Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons — is a postgraduate surgical qualification awarded by the royal surgical colleges of the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The modern intercollegiate FRCS is the exit examination of UK higher specialist surgical training, awarded through the colleges of England, Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Ireland. Specialty variants exist — for facelift patients the most relevant is FRCS (Plast), taken in plastic surgery.
DEEPPLANE™ tracks FRCS, FRCS (Plast), FRCSC (Canada), and FRCSI (Ireland) as separate credentials, so this hub lists surgeons who record the general FRCS. For any UK surgeon, the authoritative check is not the fellowship itself but the General Medical Council register, which shows licence status and specialist-register entry.
How to verify a surgeon's FRCS status
- Check the surgeon's licence and specialist-register entry on the General Medical Council's online register at gmc-uk.org.
- Confirm the fellowship with the awarding college (for example, the Royal College of Surgeons of England at rcseng.ac.uk).
