Find your deep plane specialist

There is no single "best" deep plane facelift surgeon — the right surgeon is the board-certified specialist who performs 50+ deep plane cases a year, has 30+ documented before-and-after results matching your anatomy, and verified patient reviews on two platforms. DEEPPLANE™ lists 1,411+ listed deep-plane-focused surgeons across 70+ countries, each ranked by an unpaid authority score (verification status, outcome grading, review volume, society membership) so you can shortlist 2-3 by credentials rather than ad spend. Top US specialists cluster in New York, Beverly Hills, Miami, Dallas, and Boston; deep plane fees there typically run $35,000–$75,000. If you are weighing geography alongside the surgeon, compare the best country for a deep plane facelift.

Yes. Submitting an inquiry through DEEPPLANE™ is free for patients. The surgeon decides whether to offer the first consultation at no charge — most surgeons listed here do, especially for international patients. Any consultation fees are disclosed before you book.

Pricing ranges roughly $10,000–$18,000 in Türkiye and Mexico, $15,000–$35,000 in the UK and most of Europe, and $35,000–$300,000 in the United States (typically $35,000–$75,000). Use the country and budget filters above to narrow down to surgeons in your price range. Total trip cost including flights, accommodation, and recovery support varies independently of surgeon fee.

Yes — we recommend 2–3 consultations before choosing a surgeon so you can compare approach, price, and communication style. Your inquiry is shared with a maximum of 5 surgeons so you receive real interest rather than spam. You can always follow up directly with any surgeon who replies.

The USA pioneered the deep plane technique (Dr. Sam Hamra, Dallas, 1990). Highest concentrations of dedicated specialists are in Beverly Hills, New York, Miami, Dallas, and Boston. Filter the directory above to /usa or apply the country filter to see ABFPRS- and ABPS-certified surgeons sorted by authority score, Google rating, and verified case volume. The "Verified" badge means the surgeon claimed the profile and confirmed control of the practice email domain — it is not a check of their board certification or their before/after work.

Turkey hosts the world's largest pool of dedicated deep plane specialists outside the US — concentrated in Istanbul (Nişantaşı, Şişli) plus smaller hubs in Ankara, Izmir, and Antalya. Filter to /turkey or use the country selector to surface TPRECD-certified surgeons. Top-tier all-inclusive packages run $10,000–$18,000 vs $40,000+ for the same credentialing in Beverly Hills.

London's Harley Street is the UK's deep plane hub, with GMC-registered consultants and CQC-regulated facilities. Filter to /uk or /london to see BAAPS and BAFPRS members ranked by tier and patient outcome data. Pricing typically lands £15,000–£35,000 for hospital-based deep plane procedures.

Seoul's Gangnam district performs more facial cosmetic surgery per capita than any city worldwide. KSPRS-certified specialists at Asan, Samsung, and Severance teaching hospitals lead the market. Filter to /south-korea or /seoul; expect $15,000–$30,000 all-inclusive packages with K-beauty post-op skincare integration.

No surgeon can pay for a position, and wallet activity does not affect placement. But the ordering is simpler than a score: listings are sorted by verification tier first, then by subscription start date, then alphabetically by surname. Review volume, Google rating and our authority score are shown on profiles but do not enter the sort. From 1 September 2026 a verified tier requires a live DEEPPLANE™ badge on the surgeon's own site, so the first sort key is partly a function of linking to us. See /methodology.
