Dr. Safa Manav, MD, FEBOPRAS performs deep plane facelift in Istanbul for international patients, mostly from the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK and Europe.<\/strong> The operation lifts the deeper tissue layer of the mid and lower face together with the skin, which gives a natural, long-lasting result without a pulled look. Surgery takes place at an academic hospital, with a 10-day all-inclusive programme in Istanbul.<\/p>

What is a deep plane facelift?<\/h4>

A facelift mainly addresses sagging in the mid and lower face: jowls, deep folds and loss of jawline definition. In a deep plane facelift, the surgeon releases and repositions the deeper supporting layer of the face rather than tightening the skin alone. Because the skin is not stretched, the result looks natural and tends to last longer. A deep plane facelift is often combined with a neck lift, temporal lift, eyelid surgery or facial fat grafting for a balanced result.<\/p>
