This 57-year-old patient visited the Buckingham Center to consult with double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Erin Smith regarding her facial aging concerns. Her primary area of concern was mid-face hollowing and sagging lower face. Although she had previously attempted to address this with dermal filler at another clinic, the results fell short of her expectations. After having the filler dissolved, she sought a superior, permanent surgical solution. Upon facial analysis, Dr. Smith identified significant volume descent from the mid-face into the lower face and jawline. Dr. Smith recommended a deep plane lower facelift paired with a neck-rejuvenating platysmaplasty.
At her three-month post-operative review, the patient's results are nothing short of extraordinary. Dr. Smith’s specialized expertise and refined surgical technique yielded an elegantly natural, refreshed appearance. By meticulously lifting and repositioning the patient’s own descending fat pads back to their youthful anatomical position, while expertly suspending the deep SMAS layer and platysma muscle, Dr. Smith restored crisp jawline definition and mid-face volume. The patient is absolutely thrilled with her rejuvenated, beautifully balanced outcome.
