Seeking the highest level of expertise to address advanced signs of facial aging, this patient in her late 50s presented with lower face and neck aesthetic concerns. She consulted with Dr. Erin Smith to address her concerns. Under examinaiton, notable was midface descent, which resulted in prominent nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and a loss of definition along the jawline due to jowling. Additionally, while the cervical region lacked excess adipose tissue, the patient exhibited distinct platysmal laxity and visible neck banding.
To achieve a comprehensive and durable restoration, she elected to undergo a deep plane facelift with Dr. Smith. Utilizing an advanced surgical technique that repositions the deeper structural layers of the face rather than merely tightening the skin, Dr. Smith was able to achieve an exceptional, tension-free result. The patient’s postoperative outcome reveals a masterfully etched jawline and a smooth, revitalized neckline. The midface volume has been elegantly repositioned, softening the nasolabial region and eliminating the marionette lines that previously drew the eye downward. The patient is thrilled with her sophisticated and natural-looking rejuvenation, which reflects both her aesthetic goals and the surgeon's specialized proficiency in facial aging.
