Dr. Dedhia'S PERSPECTIVES

AI-assisted profile summary

Signature technique

Dr. Raj Dedhia's signature technique is the deep plane facelift, an advanced approach to facial rejuvenation that he applies with specialized expertise. This method involves repositioning the deeper layers of facial tissue, specifically the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS), rather than merely tightening the skin. His practice emphasizes releasing and repositioning tissues at a deeper anatomical level, which differentiates it from more traditional facelift methods. Dr. Dedhia utilizes this technique to address multiple signs of facial aging simultaneously, including sagging in the mid-face, jowl formation, and neck laxity. His focus is on strategic tissue repositioning to achieve comprehensive and natural-looking results, grounded in a thorough facial analysis for each patient.

During detailed consultations, surgical techniques and recovery expectations are thoroughly discussed, allowing patients to make informed decisions about their post-operative journey.

This structure provides clarity regarding the recovery process and aims to accommodate patient needs without detailing specific aftercare protocols or support services in his public profile.

This personalized assessment allows him to tailor the deep plane technique for targeted correction of specific aging concerns. His goal is to ensure that any intervention maintains overall facial harmony and natural expression, aligning the surgical plan with the individual's distinct characteristics and desired outcomes.

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. Most patients return to desk work at 2-3 weeks and to exercise at 4-6 weeks. Final results become visible after 3-6 months as deep tissue swelling fully resolves.

The deep plane technique repositions deeper facial tissues — including the SMAS-platysma composite and the released retaining ligaments — rather than simply tightening skin, which produces more natural, longer-lasting rejuvenation.
