Description:

This 44-year-old woman was tired of looking and feeling older than she actually was. She chose to do what more and more women in their 40s are choosing: comprehensive facial and neck rejuvenation.

She underwent a deep plane facelift and deep plane neck lift, including submandibular gland reduction, anterior belly of the digastric reduction, and platysmaplasty. To complement this foundational procedure, she also chose upper and lower blepharoplasty along with an endoscopic brow lift—essentially addressing the upper face, midface, lower face, and neck in a single operation.

Increasingly, patients are choosing this comprehensive approach because it creates harmonious, long-lasting results. Many women worry that doing “more” surgery will look less natural, but I believe this case demonstrates the opposite. By treating the face as a whole rather than as separate parts, the result is greater facial harmony while maintaining a natural appearance.

She is shown here six months after surgery.
