With time, aging changes around the face and neck become more and more apparent. Many people experience a disconnect when they feel youthful and energetic on the inside, but look tired and sagging on the outside. The deep plane facelift is the gold standard for removing those signs of aging and restoring your confidence.
If You’re Concerned With
- Loose facial skin
- Loss of elasticity in your neck
- Sagging jowls
- Undefined jawline
- Sunken cheeks
And Your Goal Is To
- Look decades younger
- Achieve visibly firmer skin
- Smooth out deep wrinkles
- Contour your jawline
- Reduce smile lines
Deep Place Facelift surgery may be the perfect solution for you.
Why Deep Plane Facelift?
What makes a deep plane facelift special is it targets far beneath the superficial layers of skin to restore a youthful contour and reduce facial wrinkles and folds. It completely resets the entire underlying framework of the face and neck, leaving behind a defined jawline, a smoother appearance of the midface down to the neck, and a younger-looking facial structure.
Many people fear the “F” word because they believe every facelift leads to the overstretched, windswept look that screams plastic surgery. But a deep plane facelift will not give you this result. Patients love it for the natural, yet dramatic results it delivers. If you’re near Orange County and ready to:
- Reverse those stubborn effects of aging such as sagging jowls, a droopy “turkey gobbler” neck, and smile lines that seem to creep up with time.
- Discover newfound confidence in your appearance which leads you to blossom at work, social events, and around your family at home.
- Look like you’ve just returned from a rejuvenation vacation.
- Achieve natural results that can last more than 5 years longer than traditional facelift results.
What is a Deep Plane Facelift?
The deep plane facelift is a sophisticated approach to facial aging that delves far beneath the skin’s surface for profound transformations that exceed superficial adjustments. Men and women throughout Orange County in search of natural, dramatic and enduring results choose this technique.
The deep plane facelift is so effective in comparison to other facial rejuvenation techniques because it targets the layer even further below the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) layer.
During the traditional facelift, plastic surgeons trim, lift and adjust the skin and SMAS layer separately. The deep plane facelift elevates the skin, muscles, and SMAS as a single comprehensive unit, promoting a less invasive surgery and longer-lasting results.

Who is a Candidate for Deep Plane Facelift?
As with any facial plastic surgery, best candidates are in good overall health and do not smoke. Ideal deep plane facelift candidates are typically women and men who have more pronounced signs of aging such as the following:
Everyone ages at different speeds, so there is not necessarily an ideal age for deep plane facelift. If you’re in your late 50s, 60s or beyond and have moderate to severe facial aging, deep plane facelift is probably your best bet. If you are in your 40s or early 50s and only notice moderate aging changes, though, you may benefit enough from a mini facelift.

- Significant jowling
- Puffy under eye bags
- Sagging cheeks
- Skin laxity in the neck

How is a Deep Plane Facelift Performed?
Deep plane facelift incisions are typically made near the ears in the sideburn area, within the natural folds of the ear, and behind the ear along the hairline. Through these incisions, Dr. Taghva operates below the SMAS layer, which is the focus of a traditional rhytidectomy, to meticulously reposition and reshape the tissue at a deeper level.
Despite the intricate manipulation of deep connective tissues and muscles around the jowls and mouth folds, the scars from a deep plane facelift are generally smaller compared to those from a traditional facelift.
How Much Does a Deep Plane Facelift Cost?
Based on reviews from patients on RealSelf, the average cost of a deep plane facelift in 2024 is $17,150, with potential variations from $8,900 to $46,000. 98% of more than 600 patients on RealSelf deem the higher price tag of the deep plane facelift to be worthwhile.
