In this article, the authors describe their approach to deep plane facelift, based on their knowledge of facial anatomy and dynamics of facial aging. They emphasize the cohesive mesoface unit comprised of skin, subcutaneous fat and the mesoface fat pad. They describe their approach to the deep plane face lift focusing on repositioning of the mesoface fat pad with limited undermining.Results
