PERSPECTIVES FROM Dr. Aytaç

AI-assisted profile summary
naturallastingcomprehensivedeep-plane

Signature technique

Dr. Selçuk Aytaç's signature approach to facial rejuvenation centers on the advanced deep plane facelift technique, which he combines with vertical midface lift methodologies. This sophisticated strategy is designed to address aging comprehensively by working across multiple tissue layers, specifically releasing and repositioning the SMAS layer along with the overlying skin. His method aims to create more natural and enduring results compared to conventional facelift procedures. By integrating vertical midface lift techniques, Dr. Aytaç ensures that both lower facial sagging and mid-facial volume loss are simultaneously addressed, providing a more complete and harmonious rejuvenation than what might be achieved with single-technique approaches.

Ask Dr. Aytaç about the technique

Recovery view

Dr. Selçuk Aytaç offers a clear perspective on the recovery process following deep plane facelift surgery, emphasizing the initial and long-term outcomes. He notes that patients should anticipate an initial period characterized by swelling and tightness, particularly evident in the first week post-procedure. This early stage is a normal part of the healing journey. Dr. Aytaç highlights that while immediate results may show these temporary effects, the true aesthetic benefits unfold over time. He specifically points to two-year outcomes as the point where the natural appearance patients desire fully emerges, underscoring the importance of patience and understanding the phased nature of recovery.

His medical education was completed at the Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul University — a training background rooted in one of the country's oldest and most respected teaching hospitals. This foundation informs the surgical discipline he brings to facial aesthetic procedures.

Dr. Aytaç is listed as a member of TSPRAS, the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons. Membership in this national body reflects a commitment to recognized professional standards within the field.

The deep plane facelift represents a central focus of his surgical practice. This technique addresses facial aging at a deeper anatomical level than traditional methods, working beneath the muscle layer rather than simply tightening the skin.

A deep plane facelift repositions the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system — the fibrous layer of tissue and muscle beneath the skin) as a single unit. This approach aims for a natural appearance rather than an overly pulled result.

Dr. Selçuk Aytaç also performs the vertical midface lift, a procedure that elevates the cheek and mid-face tissues in an upward direction. This vertical vector often complements the goals of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan.

His approach to facial aging treats the face as an interconnected structure. Rather than isolating a single feature, he considers how the midface, jawline, and neck relate to one another during the aging process.

Affluent patients seeking facial rejuvenation often value discretion and natural-looking outcomes. Dr. Aytaç's emphasis on tissue repositioning rather than surface tension aligns with these priorities.

Recovery after a deep plane facelift is a subject he addresses directly with patients during planning. The technique involves a structured healing timeline, and clear expectations form an important part of his consultation process.

Istanbul serves as the backdrop for his practice — a city known as a meeting point between Europe and Asia. This East-meets-West medical hub has become a significant destination for patients traveling internationally for aesthetic surgery.

Dr. Selçuk Aytaç maintains a presence on Instagram under the handle @op.dr.aytacalten, where surgical interests and practice information are shared. Social visibility has become a common way for prospective patients to research surgeons before consultation.

His clinical interests extend across the broader field of aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. Facial rejuvenation, however, remains a defined area of specialization within his overall practice.

The combination of academic affiliation, focused specialization, and more than a decade of surgical experience positions Dr. Aytaç as an established figure in Istanbul's facial surgery landscape. Patients considering deep plane facelift surgery frequently prioritize this blend of institutional grounding and procedural focus.

Prospective patients are encouraged to verify all credentials independently and to engage in a thorough consultation. Facial rejuvenation is a deeply personal decision, and the relationship between surgeon and patient forms the core of a successful outcome.

What is the recovery time for a deep plane facelift?
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.
