Deep plane facelift expert Dr. Andres Bustillo emphasizes the importance of surgeon skill in achieving optimal outcomes.
MIAMI, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / March 19, 2025 / As interest in facial rejuvenation continues to rise, one of the most advanced techniques-the deep plane facelift-is gaining attention for its ability to deliver more natural and longer-lasting results. However, due to the complexity of this procedure, the expertise of the surgeon is more crucial than ever. Dr. Andres Bustillo, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon based in Miami, highlights the importance of selecting a qualified and experienced specialist when considering a deep plane facelift.
Andres Bustillo, MD is a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon with over 20 years in practice in the Miami area.
What Sets the Deep Plane Facelift Apart?
Unlike traditional facelifts that primarily tighten the skin, the deep plane facelift goes beyond the surface. This advanced technique involves repositioning the deeper layers of facial tissue and muscle to achieve a more comprehensive and natural-looking lift. Because it addresses the underlying structural changes that contribute to facial aging, patients often experience longer-lasting improvements with a softer, rejuvenated appearance rather than an overtightened look.
The deep plane facelift is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing moderate to severe sagging in the midface and jawline. By releasing key ligaments and repositioning the deeper structures, the procedure enhances cheek volume, refines the jawline, and restores a youthful contour to the face. The result is a smoother, more refreshed appearance with reduced tension on the skin, which helps to prevent an unnatural or pulled look.
The Growing Popularity of the Deep Plane Facelift
As more patients seek natural results with longer durability, the deep plane facelift has become an increasingly sought-after procedure. According to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS), the demand for advanced facelift techniques has grown significantly in recent years, reflecting a shift toward procedures that focus on deeper structural rejuvenation rather than surface-level skin tightening.
This rise in popularity underscores the need for highly skilled surgeons who understand the intricacies of deep tissue manipulation. Because the deep plane facelift requires precise knowledge of facial anatomy and expertise in handling deeper layers of tissue, it is not a procedure that should be entrusted to an inexperienced practitioner.
Why Surgeon Expertise is More Important Than Ever
The deep plane facelift is more technically complex than traditional facelift methods. Unlike simpler skin-tightening techniques, this approach requires extensive knowledge of facial musculature, nerves, and blood supply. If performed incorrectly, patients risk complications such as nerve damage, prolonged swelling, or an unnatural appearance.

What to Consider When Choosing a Surgeon
Given the intricacies of the deep plane facelift, patients should carefully evaluate their surgeon's qualifications before undergoing the procedure. Key factors to consider include:
Board Certification: Ensure the surgeon is certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS) or the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Experience in Deep Plane Facelifts: Not all facelift surgeons perform this advanced technique. It is crucial to select a specialist who has extensive experience with deep plane facelifts specifically.
Before-and-After Photos: Reviewing previous patient results can provide insight into the surgeon's ability to achieve natural-looking outcomes.
Patient Reviews and Testimonials: Firsthand experiences from past patients can help assess the surgeon's reputation and skill.
Personalized Consultation: A good surgeon will provide a thorough consultation, discussing the procedure in detail and creating a customized plan tailored to the patient's anatomy and goals.

What Patients Can Expect from the Deep Plane Facelift
A deep plane facelift typically requires about two to three weeks of recovery time. Because the procedure addresses deeper layers of tissue, patients often experience some swelling and bruising in the first few weeks. However, the advanced techniques used in the deep plane approach result in a smoother healing process and a more natural-looking transition to the final outcome.
Many patients report that their results continue to improve over several months as residual swelling subsides and the facial tissues fully settle. One of the biggest advantages of the deep plane facelift is its longevity-while traditional facelifts may last 7 to 10 years, the deep plane facelift can maintain its results for 10 to 15 years or more.
Patients considering the procedure can schedule a consultation at Dr. Bustillo's Miami practice to discuss their candidacy and receive a personalized treatment plan.
