Male Deep-Plane Face and Neck Lifting

In this article, the authors describe their preferred advanced deep-plane techniques and modifications that have universally improved outcomes and durability in both men and women. Performing a proper extended deep-plane facelift and neck lift avoids the need to camouflage scars and stigmata of lifts seen in superficial musculoaponeurotic system plication and other techniques. In the author ’s experience, vertical vector deep-plane surgery is more durable, natural, and less reliant on lipofilling and volume addition. The subtleties of examination and analysis, surgical technique, clinical outcomes, and gender-specific considerations in the reconstruction of gonial and cervicomental a ngles, deep planar volumetric reduction, facial volumetric change, limited skin delamination, and revision techniques are discussed.
