Turn Back the Clock, Not Your Identity
Experience the Deep Plane Difference. A longer-lasting, natural facelift and neck lift that restores volume and contours without the “wind-tunnel” look.
Why Choose a Deep Plane Facelift?
Traditional facelifts often pull the skin tight, leaving patients looking ‘operated on’ or flat. The Deep Plane Facelift goes deeper. By releasing the ligaments that hold the facial muscles (SMAS) in a dropped position, we are able to reposition the tissues vertically-exactly where they were in your youth.
The result? A smoother jawline, a refined neck, and rested eyes that look like you, just younger.
The Defined Neck You Remember
A heavy neck or ‘turkey wattle’ can add years to your appearance, even if your face is smooth. Dr. Yeung performs a dedicated Neck Lift in conjunction with the Deep Plane Facelift to sculpt the jawline and remove excess fat and skin.
We address:
- Loose neck muscle bands (Platysma bands)
- Excess skin under the chin
- Accumulation of neck fat
The Yeung Difference
| Vertical Vector Lift | Volume Preservation | Hidden Incisions |
|---|---|---|
| We lift upwards, not sideways, to avoid the “swept-back” look common in older techniques. | We don’t just pull tight; we redistribute fat to restore the youthful ‘apple’ of the cheek. | Incisions are hidden in the hairline and around the ear so your scars are virtually invisible. |

What to Expect: Recovery Timeline
We believe in transparency regarding your healing journey.
Downtime: Typically 2 weeks for social events.
Garment: You will wear a neck compression garment for the first few days to reduce swelling.
Final Result: Results settle over 3-6 months as the tissues soften into their new position gradually and keep improving over the remaining of the year.
