Deep Plane Facelift and Necklift Before & After Case 131

The before photo shows visible laxity along the jawline and neck, with soft tissue descent contributing to a less defined lower facial contour. The after photo shows a cleaner jawline definition and a smoother neckline, with the midface appearing fuller relative to the before state.

This patient underwent a deep plane facelift and necklift combined with facial fat grafting at Dilworth Facial Plastic Surgery. The deep plane facelift addresses tissues beneath the superficial muscular layer of the face, allowing repositioning of the deeper structural layer rather than skin alone. Fat grafting was performed to the face to restore volume in areas where fullness had diminished.

For prospective patients considering a deep plane facelift and necklift in Charlotte, the procedure is typically suited to individuals with notable laxity of the lower face and neck, as visible in the before photo here. The after photo shows the lower face and neck with a more contoured appearance compared to the before state.

Joshua Surowitz MD & Andrea Garcia MD performed this combined approach at Dilworth Facial Plastic Surgery. The procedures were done together, addressing both tissue position and volume in a single surgical setting.
