Extended Deep Plane Face Lift and Adjunctive Procedures for Rejuvenation of the Upper, Middle, and Lower Face
A detailed surgical video course featuring Andrew A. Jacono, MD, FACS, demonstrating extended deep plane face lift techniques and adjunctive facial rejuvenation procedures for the upper, middle, and lower thirds of the face.
This recorded surgical course demonstrates an extended deep plane face lift and complementary procedures for facial rejuvenation. The program focuses on surgical anatomy, operative planning, soft tissue preservation, deep plane dissection, ligament release, midface elevation, eyelid rejuvenation, lip lift, and neck contouring.
Instructor: Andrew A. Jacono, MD, FACS.
About This Course
Facial rejuvenation surgery requires a precise understanding of anatomy, aging patterns, soft tissue repositioning, volume restoration, and procedure selection. This course demonstrates how extended deep plane facelift techniques can be combined with adjunctive procedures to improve the upper, middle, and lower face.
The video includes a detailed review of the patient’s preoperative appearance, surgical goals, step-by-step operative technique, local anesthesia infiltration, flap elevation, deep plane access, ligament release, midface mobilization, neck dissection, and closure.
