Deep Plane Facelift

 Dr. Samir Ghoraba performs deep facelift procedures by making a surgical incision in front of the ear and extending it behind the ear in the case of a neck lift as well. The face is integral to our identity; it’s often the first thing we recall when remembering someone. It serves as the focal point of attention, and we all endeavour to maintain the beauty and harmony of our faces throughout different stages of life. However, several factors can adversely affect our bodies overall, with particular impact on the face. These include sun exposure, fluctuations in weight, aging, gravity, and smoking, among others. As we age, significant changes occur, such as loss of volume in deep and superficial facial fat, relaxation of facial muscles, skin sagging, accumulation of fat in the neck area (known as the jowl), the emergence of expressive movements (wrinkles) around the mouth, eyes, and forehead, and the loss of facial definition, leading to a square-shaped appearance. If you’re experiencing any of these signs, it’s advisable to consult Dr. Samir Ghoraba for an examination and to determine suitable medical interventions to address these issues. These interventions may include non-surgical methods like fillers and Botox, as well as surgical approaches such as fat injections, mini facelifts, or deep facelifts.

How is a deep plane facelift performed?

A deep facelift involves a surgical incision in front of the ear, which may extend behind the ear if a neck lift is required. Dr. Samir Ghoraba then conducts a surgical dissection of specific facial skin regions, reaching deep facial tissues to address sagging facial muscles and reposition them to their natural alignment. The muscles are secured in place to achieve a beautiful, natural, and attractive facial contour. Any excess skin is meticulously removed before the incision is accurately closed. Additionally, excess fat is extracted from the neck, and fat grafting may be performed during the same procedure to restore fullness and natural vitality to the face.

What are the advantages of a deep plane facelift?

Dr. Samir Ghoraba’s centres are distinguished as the sole facilities in Egypt and the Middle East offering deep facelift procedures. Unlike traditional facelifts, which primarily tighten the skin and utilise basic sutures to reinforce muscles, resulting in temporary outcomes, Dr. Samir Ghoraba’s deep facelifts yield natural and enduring results. He meticulously repositions the muscles to their original alignment instead of merely shortening them. Deep facelifts are particularly effective for addressing sagging around the mouth and chin, neck sagging, signs of aging in the lower two-thirds of the face, loss of fat in the cheeks, sagging cheeks, periorbital sagging, and lack of definition in the jaw and neck bones.
