THE BEST VERSION OF YOU

WHAT IS A FACELIFT?

Unfortunately, you can’t turn back the clock, but you can choose to have a facelift designed to remove heavy, tired features to make you look younger again. Having performed hundreds of facelifts, I recommend a deep plane face and neck lift which I have found to give the best, most natural and most long-lasting result.

Deep Plane Facelift: Rejuvenation Beyond the Surface


The deep plane facelift emerges as a groundbreaking technique in pursuing timeless beauty. Unlike traditional methods, it targets the deeper facial tissues, providing natural-looking results. Explore this advanced procedure with Mr Athanassopoulos and his expert team at Athanassopoulos.com and Alpha Hospital Group.

What is a Deep Plane Facelift?

The deep plane facelift is a surgical procedure beyond tightening the skin. It adjusts the underlying muscles and connective tissues, creating a harmonious facial appearance. The result is a long-lasting, youthful look without the telltale signs of surgery.

THE SURGERY

DIFFERENT TYPES OF FACELIFT

  • Deep Plane Facelift

    The deep plane facelift offers a superior solution for those looking to address the signs of ageing, such as deep lines, wrinkles, jowls, and loose skin. Performed by Mr Thanassi Athanassopoulos, with years of experience in facial rejuvenation, this procedure ensures a harmonious and refreshed appearance that preserves individual character.

  • Key Benefits

    • Natural and Long-lasting Results: By working on the deeper layers of facial muscles and tissues, the deep plane facelift achieves subtle and enduring enhancements.
    • Comprehensive Rejuvenation: Ideal for correcting sagging cheeks, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds, the deep plane facelift revitalizes the midface, lower face, and neck regions.
    • Reduced Recovery Time: With specialized surgical techniques, the deep plane facelift often results in a smoother recovery process, minimizing swelling and bruising.

  • Recovery

    A complete facelift is a delicate procedure, and you should plan at least two weeks off work with no strenuous activity for at least eight weeks. Swelling, bruising, and tenderness will occur during the first few days but gradually resolves with time. Swelling may persist for longer.
