Deep Plan Facelift surgery provides more natural and long-lasting results by lifting both the skin and deeper facial layers (SMAS). This procedure, performed by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Güncel Öztürk in Istanbul, targets the root causes of facial aging, giving a younger and fresher appearance.
A New Level in Facial Rejuvenation
Deep Plan Facelift is an advanced surgical procedure performed by renowned plastic surgeon Assoc. Dr. Güncel Öztürk in Istanbul. This method is designed to address the deep causes of facial aging. Unlike traditional facelift techniques that only tighten the skin, this method also lifts and repositions the facial muscles and connective tissues. The result is a more youthful, natural and long-lasting appearance.
As we age, skin elasticity decreases, facial tissues sag down and wrinkles deepen – especially in the cheeks, jawline and neck. Traditional facelift surgeries usually only tighten the skin, which can sometimes lead to an artificial or over-stretched appearance. The Deep Plan method, on the other hand, targets the SMAS layer and deeper facial connective tissues, repositioning the mid and lower facial areas naturally.
By releasing the tension of the deep tissues and lifting these structures as a whole, this technique adds volume to the cheeks, softens nasolabial lines, redefines the jawline and eliminates sagging in the neck area – all without distorting the facial expression.
