Traceless Deep Plane Facelift Before & After Case 2373

This patient, a 59-year-old mother, chose to undergo a Facelift - Traceless Deep Plane Facelift in Los Angeles to address shifting contours and visible signs of aging on her face and neck. Her main concerns included jowling along the jawline, deeper folds near the mouth, and relaxed skin extending into the lower neck. Seeking a refreshed appearance while maintaining natural facial movement and discreet incision placement, she explored options for a deep plane facelift that would offer lasting enhancement without visible scarring.

During her consultation, she and Dr. David Stoker discussed a surgical plan that combined a traceless deep plane face and neck lift with a subtle upper lip lift. The procedure addressed excess skin and underlying tissue laxity throughout the jawline and neck. Laser skin resurfacing was performed to improve overall texture, minimize visible pores, and even out sun-related changes. Incisions were carefully hidden, enabling her to resume professional and family activities with confidence as healing progressed.

The outcome for this patient, visible just over two and a half months post-operation, includes smoother neck contours, restored definition along the jawline, and a more youthful upper lip. The improvements are noticeable yet natural, as scars remain hidden and facial expression is preserved. Laser resurfacing further enhanced the result by refining the skin's finish and reducing signs of photodamage.
