A deep plane facelift in Philadelphia rejuvenates your appearance by elevating the underlying muscles, tissues, and fat to a more youthful-looking location with minimal trauma to the superficial skin layer. It thus provides a highly natural-looking transformation with less recovery time and discomfort than conventional techniques. Dr. Allan Wulc, in Philadelphia, PA, uses a precision-oriented approach to achieve your ideal look.
What Is a Deep Plane Facelift?
A deep plane facelift significantly reshapes the facial contours to reflect a more youthful, attractive countenance. Like a conventional facelift, it focuses on correcting sagging cheeks and loss of definition in the jawline, jowls, and nasolabial folds. However, there are some major technical differences between a traditional facelift and its deep plane counterpart.
During the procedure, Dr. Wulc first leases the anchoring facial ligaments, which allows him to elevate and reposition the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS), a network of fibrous connective tissue beneath the skin. Through gentle lifting of the muscle, tissue, and fat layers, Dr. Wulc achieves a tension-free result that comes with minimal trauma to the superficial skin layer. This reduces discomfort, bruising, and overall recovery time. A deep plane facelift provides a far more natural-looking transformation than is typically possible with other methods.
