What is a Deep Plane Facelift?
A deep plane facelift is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the face by addressing sagging skin, deep facial folds, and loss of volume. Unlike traditional facelifts, this technique works on the deeper layers of facial tissue, resulting in more natural and long-lasting outcomes. It is particularly effective for individuals seeking a comprehensive solution to facial aging.
In Switzerland, the deep plane facelift is performed with precision and care, adhering to the highest medical standards. Patients benefit from the expertise of Swiss surgeons, who combine advanced techniques with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring optimal safety and aesthetic results.
How Does a Deep Plane Facelift Work?
The procedure focuses on repositioning the deeper layers of the face, including the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) and underlying fat pads. By lifting and tightening these structures, the deep plane facelift restores youthful contours and improves skin elasticity without creating a stretched or artificial appearance.
Performed under general anesthesia, the surgery typically lasts 4-6 hours. The incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, often hidden within the hairline and natural creases around the ears.

BRST Mia Clinic Zurich
"I had a consultation with Dr. Farid at the end of last year. While I ultimately decided not to go ahead with surgery yet for personal reasons, I was extremely impressed by his knowledgeable and frank discussion about my anatomy, the surgical techniques he uses, and his qualifications. He answered my many questions about aging in depth, including how it affects other parts of my body, and skin laxity. What stood out most was his honesty. He could have easily recommended multiple surgeries. But instead he was straightforward and even told me that, in some cases, I didn’t need anything at all, or at least not for another decade. The clinic itself is modern, clean, and beautifully designed. Clearly of the highest quality. I also met Dr. Martina, who is radiant, confident, and gives off such a positive vibe. If I ever decide to move forward with surgery, I would feel completely confident choosing BRST. I felt very comfortable with the team and their approach. I left feeling like I had the information I needed to make a completely informed choice. I likely will come back in a few years when I'm ready."
