Undergoing a deep plane facelift in Turkey provides a comprehensive experience that combines world-class surgical expertise with affordability and comfort. Patients can expect personalized consultations, precise surgical planning, and natural results achieved through deep tissue repositioning rather than surface tightening alone.
The deep plane facelift targets the deeper structures of the face, including the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) and underlying muscles. Unlike traditional facelifts that only tighten the skin, this technique lifts and repositions deeper layers, effectively addressing drooping cheeks, nasolabial folds, and jowls while maintaining a natural appearance.

Aging, gravity, and reduced collagen production cause the deeper facial structures to descend over time. This leads to hollow cheeks, deeper folds, and skin laxity. Environmental factors like sun exposure, smoking, and stress can accelerate this process, making the deep plane facelift an ideal choice for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Your Deep Plane Face Lift procedure is carefully planned to give you the best, most natural-looking results.
A thorough facial assessment helps determine the ideal vector and depth of lift needed.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure comfort.
Small incisions are made around the hairline and ear to access deeper facial layers.
The surgeon releases and repositions the SMAS and deeper tissues for a lifted contour.
Lastly the skin is redraped over the repositioned tissues to finalize the procedure.
In Istanbul, surgeons often combine the deep plane lift with complementary procedures like neck lifts, eyelid surgery, or fat grafting to achieve balanced facial rejuvenation. The deep plane method can also be customized — for example, focusing only on the midface or jawline depending on the patient’s needs and goals.
Choosing the right variation depends on your facial structure, skin elasticity, and aging pattern. Younger patients may benefit from a limited or mini deep plane lift, while older individuals with significant sagging may require a full deep plane facelift for maximum rejuvenation. A detailed consultation ensures the approach aligns perfectly with your aesthetic expectations.
