Deep Plane Facelift by Dr. Zubowicz: Stunning, Best Results
Understanding the Deep Plane (Composite) Facelift by Dr. Zubowicz
The deep plane (composite) facelift is a sophisticated surgical technique designed to rejuvenate the face by addressing the underlying structures that contribute to aging. Dr. Zubowicz, a renowned
lastic surgeon, has perfected this method to provide natural-looking results that stand the test of time. Unlike traditional facelifts that primarily tighten surface skin, this advanced procedure targets the deeper layers of facial tissue, offering a more comprehensive and long-lasting rejuvenation.
What is a Deep Plane (Composite) Facelift?
A deep plane or composite facelift involves lifting not just the skin but also the deeper muscular and connective tissues of the face, collectively known as the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System). This technique corrects sagging by repositioning these deeper layers to restore youthful contours. The term “composite” is a variation of a deep plane facelift where the skin is not separated from the SMAS. This preserves robust blood supply to the skin, provides a platform to reposition the fat pads of the face to a youthful position and allows for a tension free closure of the skin resulting in nearly invisible scare.
Compared to traditional facelift techniques, which mainly pull the skin tight, the deep plane facelift addresses the primary causes of facial aging—muscle laxity and fat descent—leading to more natural movement and fewer signs of surgery.

The Deep Plane Facelift Procedure Explained
During the deep plane facelift, Dr. Zubowicz carefully lifts the skin and SMAS layer as one unit. By releasing specific attachments and repositioning these structures, the face’s youthful architecture is restored. This method notably improves the jawline, cheeks, and nasolabial folds, providing a firm yet natural contour.
The composite nature of the facelift means that Dr. Zubowicz also addresses the muscles around the eyes, which can correct drooping eyelid skin and reduce under-eye bags without separate invasive surgeries.
Typically performed under general anesthesia, the surgery lasts several hours. Post-operative recovery involves some swelling and modest bruising, Most patients look very presentable in 2 weeks.
Benefits of the Deep Plane (Composite) Facelift
Patients who undergo this advanced facelift often notice the following advantages:
- Improved Facial Symmetry: Repositioning deeper tissues harmonizes facial features.
- Restoration of Midface Volume: As sagging fat pads are lifted, the cheeks regain a youthful fullness.
- Natural Movements: Because the technique preserves the facial muscles’ function, expressive movements remain fluid.
- Longer-Lasting Youthfulness: Traditional facelifts tend to blur or stretch again over time; the deep plane method’s firm anchoring prevents this.
- Subtle Enhancement: The procedure avoids artificial looks by focusing on underlying anatomy rather than mere skin tightening.
