Growing older is an inevitable fact of life that first shows on the face and neck. Sagging cheeks, jowls, deep smile lines, a poorly defined jawline, crepey skin, and loose neck skin can all make you appear older than your actual age. While many non-surgical anti-aging treatments help refresh the skin and improve moderate signs of aging, they may have limitations when it comes to managing severe facial sagging, skin laxity, and deep wrinkles. These treatments may no longer provide the desired lifting effect.
For people with advanced skin laxity, a deep-plane facelift offers more natural-looking, long-lasting results.
At Designer Bodyz Clinic, we offer an advanced deep-plane facelift in Mumbai to reposition deep-seated facial tissues and restore youthful facial contours without affecting your natural expressions. This facelift type addresses the root cause of your aging skin and deliver naturally smoother, firmer results. Experienced plastic surgeon at Designer Bodyz Clinic provides a personalized treatment plan tailored to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.
A Deep Plane Facelift is a surgical approach to an advanced facelift, designed to correct moderate to severe facial aging concerns. It involves lifting and repositioning of the deeper facial structures- the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS), along with the skin above, for long-lasting, natural-looking restoration of youthful facial contour.
Generally, a deep plane facelift is recommended for:
Along with a neck lift, autologous fat transfer, eyelid surgery, or other facial rejuvenation procedures, it can provide comprehensive, desired outcomes.

A personalised consultation with a facial plastic surgeon can help determine whether a deep plane facelift will be worth an investment for you.
The procedure involves lifting and repositioning the deeper facial tissues responsible for age-related sagging, helping restore facial volume, redefine jawline, and improve the neck without creating a tight or overdone appearance.
Here are the general steps involved:
The surgeon thoroughly evaluates the patient’s facial structure, extent of ageing, skin quality, medical records, and aesthetic goals to develop the best surgical plan.
A deep plane facelift is a highly invasive procedure, so to ensure maximum comfort, it is usually done under the effect of general anaesthesia or intravenous sedation.
The surgeon carefully makes cuts within the hairline or around the natural ear contour, in hidden areas, so that incision scars stay hidden.
Through the incisions, the surgeon carefully releases the deep-seated ligaments and elevates the SMAS layer and overlying skin without placing excessive tension on the skin.
The surgeon carefully repositions and elevates the descended facial tissues to restore lost volume, improve definition, and soften deep folds/creases. If needed, the neck tissues are even tightened to improve overall facial balance.
After the underlying tissues are repositioned and lifted, the surgeon carefully redrapes the overlying skin and excises excess skin. Lastly, the surgeon closes the incision using fine sutures and may cover the operated area with a sterile dressing.
The entire surgery takes 3-6 hours, depending on the complexity of the procedures and the number of procedures performed.
For every patient, the recovery phase is slightly variable. Strict adherence to the surgeon’s recommended aftercare plan ensures expected results and smooth recovery.
Here’s the typical recovery timeline:
During the initial consultation, the surgeon provides a detailed list of instructions to follow in the days leading up to the time of the surgery.
