Revision Deep Plane Facelift & Neck Lift at 1 Month Post-Op

Restoring Definition 15 Years After a Mini Facelift

This 58-year-old woman presented 15 years after a mini facelift performed elsewhere. Over time, she noticed the return of jowling, neck laxity, and facial heaviness, and was seeking a more comprehensive, lasting solution. Dr. Janet Chao performed a revision deep plane facelift and neck lift to address deep tissue descent and restore natural contour and definition to her lower face and neck.

At just 1 month post-op, her results already show a marked improvement in jawline sharpness, neck smoothness, and midface support—all with a natural appearance. While swelling will continue to improve over the next few months, this early outcome demonstrates the powerful yet elegant lift that the deep plane technique offers, especially in revision cases.

Dr. Chao specializes in natural-looking facial rejuvenation using advanced deep plane techniques that lift the deeper structures rather than pulling the skin, making her a trusted choice for revision facelift surgery in San Diego and La Jolla.
