PROCEDURE
Deep Plane Facelift
For many, the onset of ageing brings along its subtle, yet persistent reminders that we are indeed not getting any younger. For starters, our skin starts to lose its elasticity as collagen levels diminish. Consequently, the soft lines that once only appeared with a smile deepen, the vibrant contours of youth begin to soften, and you’ll start to notice the formation of more prominent wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, jowls, nasolabial folds, and sagging skin particularly around the neck.
In our modern world, where 50 is the new 30, accepting these visible signs of ageing no longer has to be a foregone conclusion – instead, we have advanced medical treatments such as the deep plane facelift designed to bring back your youth in a natural way.
But what is the “deep plane”?
The deep plane refers to the region sandwiched between the (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) SMAS layer and facial muscles. Our face is intricately structured, comprising layers such as the skin, the fatty tissue beneath it, the SMAS, facial muscles, and finally, the protective lining over the facial bones, not to mention the bones themselves.
A deep plane facelift in London zeroes in on the deep plane, during which Mr Kshem Yapa repositions the cheek fat to its original, youthful spot. This procedure often produces more inconspicuous scarring than traditional facelift measures as it does not require as much undermining of skin and can have a more powerful impact on your midface.
