Benefits of Dr. Lam’s Deep Plane Facelift
A facelift with Dr. Lam is fundamentally different from the approaches of many other surgeons. Rather than pulling the skin tight, his technique restores the underlying structures of the face to where they were before aging occurred. By releasing key retaining ligaments that connect the SMAS tissue to the underlying parotid gland, he repositions the cheeks, jawline, and neck in a way that looks natural and holds over time.
His multi-vector lifting approach is central to this philosophy. The jawline is restored along a more horizontal vector to reestablish definition, while the middle and upper face are elevated more vertically to counteract gravity. This avoids the overly tight or “windswept” appearance associated with older facelift techniques.
