Dr. Conderman’s approach to facelifting has evolved over time and he is well versed in both traditional and more modern facelifting techniques. This technical evolution revolves around his approach to the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer of the face. The SMAS is a fibroconnective and muscular tissue layer in the face and neck that is located deep to the skin’s outer layer. Facelifting techniques revolve around the depth of dissection and how the SMAS layer is manipulated and addressed at the time of surgery. During his fellowship training he gained extensive experience with a SMAS plication and imbrication technique and now largely performs deep plane facelifting techniques which allow for a more natural and long lasting result.
In addition to the techniques that more directly lift the face, Dr. Conderman employs methods of neck-rejuvenation at the time of facelifting, that include a platysmaplasty (tightening and suturing of the platysma muscles – a superficial muscle that can have a significant impact on the appearance of the neck), as well as surgical techniques to address the deeper structures of the neck that include descent of the submandibular glands, the digastric musculature and deeper fat layers.
The deep plane facelift approach focuses on the lower two-thirds of the face and neck, offering extended longevity and transformative effects. This technique involves simultaneous lifting of the SMAS and skin layers, leading to longer-lasting results. What sets it apart is its ability to combat the long-term effects of muscle movement on facial folds with a more natural repositioning of aging tissues in the face and neck.
For those seeking facial rejuvenation without surgery, our clinic offers injectable fillers and less invasive techniques. These minimally invasive option requires less recovery time, though it’s essential to note that a surgical facelift offers longer lasting results.
