Abstract
AbstractThe deep-plane rhytidectomy was first described in 1990 and has gained traction in the past decade as supported by anatomy, embryology, and clinical evidence. Consumer dissatisfaction in facial rejuvenation procedures often occurs because procedures are too conservative and are undone. From the consumer's perspective, an outcome is a combination of the esthetic result, predictability, and the length of the recovery process. The length of the recovery process is often the limiting issue affecting the consumer's willingness to proceed with the procedure. As one of the early pioneers in deep-plane rhytidectomy, the lead author will define contemporary advances in deep-plane techniques such as dissection entry point, flap design, and flap fixation concepts that allow an aggressive approach to treating both the superficial soft tissue envelope and deeper facial aging structures. These technique modifications and insights will provide the surgeon with an understanding of how to achieve significant, natural, long-lasting results with predictable short recovery periods—maximizing outcomes and minimizing postoperative processes.
