Deep plane” is much catchier moniker than “SMAS facelift” thereby contributing to its greater popularity as a descriptor. Nevertheless, both procedures are closely aligned, separated conceptually by the small but important differences presented here. However, facelift results are determined more by the skill and aesthetic sense of the surgeon as well as a given patient’s age and anatomy rather than the type of technique employed. Not covered here is the fact that there are multiple SMAS variations that can be tailored to a specific patient’s anatomy whereas deep plane technique is the same for every patient regardless of anatomical differences. More to come on that.

This is a common practice that should be avoided. Other misleading practices, whether intentional or not, include different lighting in the before and after images. Lighting from above casts shadows that often makes a condition appear worse compared to full frontal lighting. Facial expression is also important. Subjects should be shown in repose in both the before and after images. A slight smile in the after images always makes the result look better. Fortunately, the vast majority of surgeons are faithful in observing these principles as closely as possible.

Every new technique in plastic surgery goes through the zealot phase both because it is new and there is FOMO. “Over the muscle” breast augmentation is the latest example. It is heavily marketed by an implant manufacturer whose product is especially suited to this approach. Also, some surgeons looking for a differentiating niche embrace it enthusiastically. It definitely is a valuable addition to our tool box of techniques but more time is needed to appreciate not just its advantages but also its limitations

Grateful to be recognized as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor in their annual peer nominated survey, now for the 25th time in a row. The real star of this duo though is the girl of my dreams: the first woman Chairman of the Real Estate Board of New York in their 130 year history, the most NYC Real Estate Deal of the Year Awards in history (10), the most space leased for tenants (over 100 million square feet), a key player in Times Square revitalization in the 90s as well as leasing most of the new buildings at the rebuilt World Trade Center site. Truly the GOAT! Here listed #15 in Crains 100 most powerful NYC leaders.
