Deep Plane Facelift and Necklift Before & After Case 145

Before surgery, this patient presented with significant laxity along the lower face and neck, with pronounced vertical neck banding, deep perioral lines, and fine rhytids covering much of the facial surface. The soft tissue of the mid-face and jowl area showed visible descent, and the skin texture was coarsened throughout.

Joshua Surowitz MD & Andrea Garcia MD performed a deep plane facelift and necklift combined with CO2 laser resurfacing of the face. The deep plane facelift and necklift addresses laxity in the lower face and neck by working at a deeper tissue level beneath the skin, while CO2 laser resurfacing treats surface texture and fine lines across the facial skin.

For those researching deep plane facelift and necklift in Charlotte, the photos above illustrate one outcome this combination can produce. In the after image, the neck banding appears less prominent, the jawline shows a more defined contour, and the jowl transition is smoother relative to the before photo. Skin texture across the central face, including the perioral area, appears more even and the depth of surface rhytids is visibly reduced compared to the before image.

The two procedures address distinct layers of the face, with the surgical component repositioning deeper tissue and the laser treating the skin's surface. The after photo reflects a visible change in both structural contour and surface quality.
