About
Specializing in deep plane facelift surgery in Boca Raton, Florida, Dr. Arthur Handal is a plastic surgeon practicing at Handal Plastic Surgery. As of October 2026, Dr. Handal appears on DeepPlane's directory as a surgeon focused on facial rejuvenation and the deep plane technique.
Dr. Arthur Handal practices in Boca Raton, a coastal South Florida city known for refined aesthetics and discreet, high-touch private care. The surgeon's clinical attention centers on the face, where a deep plane facelift addresses the deeper structures that drive facial aging.
The deep plane facelift is the procedure most closely associated with Dr. Handal's listed focus. This technique repositions the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a connective-tissue layer beneath the skin) rather than simply tightening the surface.
Dr. Handal's approach reflects a structural philosophy of facial rejuvenation. Instead of pulling skin, the deep plane method releases and lifts deeper tissue, aiming for a natural rather than a tightened appearance.
The distinction of the deep plane facelift lies in where the lift happens. By working beneath the muscle layer, the method repositions tissue as a single unit, which can soften the midface, jawline and neck in one structural correction.
Facial rejuvenation surgery is listed among Dr. Handal's specialties alongside the deep plane facelift. Together these describe a practice oriented toward the aging face and the natural contours patients hope to restore.
Handal Plastic Surgery operates from 5503 North Federal Highway in Boca Raton. Beyond surgery, the practice offers non-surgical facial services, injectables and skin care, placing surgical rejuvenation within a broader spectrum of options.
Dr. Handal is listed as a member of The Aesthetic Society, an organization focused on aesthetic plastic surgery. Such membership signals engagement with a professional community centered specifically on cosmetic surgical practice.
Recovery is a central consideration for anyone weighing a deep plane facelift. The technique involves deeper dissection, and patients typically plan for a staged return to social and physical activity over several weeks.
Patients considering Dr. Handal often arrive seeking a refreshed yet unchanged look. The deep plane facelift is frequently chosen by those who want to avoid the over-tightened result associated with older skin-only methods.
Boca Raton draws patients who value privacy and a calm recovery setting. The city's quiet residential character and coastal climate make it a considered choice for facial surgery and the weeks that follow.
A consultation with Dr. Handal's practice typically explores facial anatomy, goals and candidacy. The surgeon evaluates skin quality, underlying tissue and the specific pattern of facial aging before recommending an approach.
Handal Plastic Surgery lists a wide range of facial procedures and treatments. This breadth allows the practice to match an intervention to the degree of facial aging a patient presents, from non-surgical options to deep plane rejuvenation.
