Deep plane facelift in Beverly Hills

In their own words

Quoted word for word from the surgeon's own public posts and videos. General education, not medical advice.

Whether you are having a deep plane, SMAS, preservation or endoscopic facelift, the incisions are paramount in the outcome of the results.
Preserving and designing a natural hairline with near invisible scars are perhaps the most critical aspect.
Careful incision placement to avoid distorting the natural sideburns for men and hair tufts for women will also keep the scars as discreet as possible.

Feeling anxious before surgery is completely normal.
In my experience, anxiety often becomes more manageable when patients understand exactly what to expect, from the procedure and its risks to recovery and long-term results.
The right surgeon should make you feel informed, heard, and comfortable asking questions.

Understanding the face goes far beyond what we see on the surface.
Anatomy, facial nerve function, movement, and the way tissues respond to treatment all play an important role in achieving safe, natural, and balanced results.
