I converted to the extended deep plane facelift and necklift with a shorter skin flap elevation in the face to achieve more complete release of the facial ligaments to obtain more mobilization of the skin/SMAS composite flap, and a more medial suspension resulting in improved correction of the midface, nasolabial fold, marionette fold and jowl. Treatment of the deep neck structures allowed for more refinement of the submentum in the deep necklift procedures as well. In this article, we shall review the surgical technique of the deep plane facelift and necklift as well as postoperative management pearls, the management of complications from the procedure, and the incorporation of ancillary procedures.
