Say hello to Kelly! At 56, she was ready to refresh her look and restore confidence regarding her appearance. From her home in California, she connected with Dr. Schmidt virtually after reading dozens of glowing reviews and knew she had found the right fit.⁠

Her goals? To soften deep folds and marionette lines, lift the heaviness in her brows, and smooth the signs of aging in her neck and lower face. She also wanted to improve fine lines and etched wrinkles around her mouth that had become more prominent with time.⁠

To achieve this, Dr. Schmidt performed a customized facial rejuvenation plan: a cheek/neck lift with platysmaplasty, brow lift, and dermabrasion to the perioral and nasal areas—all tailored to her anatomy and aesthetic goals.⁠
⁠⁠
“I’m incredibly happy with my facelift, necklift, brow lift, and dermabrasion results! Dr. Schmidt and his entire staff are responsive, kind, and professional. I also really liked his anesthesiologist, who was reassuring and made it easy. I zoomed in for my initial consultations, then spent one week in Denver before flying home to California. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!”

Our patients don’t always say, “I want a deep plane facelift.” What they describe is wanting to look like themselves, only more rested, which is a common goal and one that usually involves two procedures rather than one.

The first is the way tissue settles over the years. Along the jawline and through the neck, structures gradually lose their position, and no cream or treatment will lift them back. This is the work an extended deep plane facelift and deep plane neck lift are designed to do, repositioning tissue beneath the surface layers so the result holds far longer than more superficial techniques allow.
The second lives in the skin itself. Sun exposure, fine lines, and the gradual change in texture build up over decades, and while a lift restores position beautifully, it leaves the surface much as it found it. Resurfacing is what addresses that. Dr. Schmidt generally uses dermabrasion, still regarded as the gold standard and often confused with microdermabrasion, which only removes dead skin cells. Dermabrasion works closer to a laser treatment, refreshing the skin so it generates new collagen as it heals.

Treated together, within a single recovery, the two produce something neither achieves alone.

Meet Deborah! Her journey initially began with us when she came to Dr. Schmidt, hoping to improve the appearance of a scar on her neck from a previous surgery. But during her consultation, something meaningful happened. As she and Dr. Schmidt talked through her concerns, she realized there were other areas she’d been quietly hoping to refresh as well.

That thoughtful conversation opened the door to a plan that felt truly aligned with her goals: a neck lift, lower facelift, and lower blepharoplasty to restore balance, rejuvenate her features, and help her feel like herself again.
In this video, Deborah shares what her experience was like: a consultation that never felt rushed, a team that made space for all her questions, and a plan that emerged naturally from feeling heard and understood.

Today, she’s thrilled with her results, and the transformation has given her renewed confidence in the way she presents herself to the world.

What exactly is a fat cell? Let’s break it down!

In medical terms, fat cells are called adipocytes. Think of them as tiny storage containers holding fatty acids—the energy your body stores.⁠

As you gain weight, these adipocytes expand to store more fat. When you lose weight, they shrink back down—they don’t disappear, just contract. This natural process is what makes fat grafting so unique: we’re using your body’s own living tissue, packed with these adaptable cells, to enhance your features.⁠

Curious about the evolution of the facelift? I’m breaking it down.⁠⁠

I’m exploring the deep plane facelift and why it’s become the leading approach in modern facial rejuvenation.⁠ ⁠When facelift techniques were first being developed, they were limited to skin-only techniques, offering minimal lift, wider scars, and short-lived results. Today, many surgeons utilize an intermediate but significantly more impactful approach that prioritizes resuspension of the deeper connective tissue layer known as the SMAS. A select handful of surgeons with a much more specialized understanding of facial anatomy and technical expertise are able to perform a procedure yielding even more profound rejuvenation: the deep plane facelift. This advanced variation of the procedure involves lifting the majority of the SMAS layer and releasing key anchor points to maximize repositioning—allowing me to deliver longer-lasting results and more transformative outcomes.⁠ ⁠

Sometimes, it’s not just about what you see in the mirror but how you feel about what you see. ⁠

This patient had become self-conscious about the fat that had developed under his chin and decided to make a change by undergoing neck and jawline liposuction. These profound results left him with a radically changed profile - and a renewed sense of confidence. ⁠

It’s my goal to make every patient feel confident, informed, and cared for, just like him. Click the to schedule a personalized consultation and experience it yourself.

Rebecca was 52 when she decided it was time to address changes she could no longer ignore... softening along the jawline, looseness in the neck, and visible neck banding that made her look more tired than she felt. She had already explored non-surgical options, but they didn’t meaningfully address the bigger structural changes she was seeing.

After careful evaluation, she underwent an extended deep plane facelift and deep plane neck lift with platysmaplasty. This approach allows the deeper layers of the face and neck to be repositioned rather than simply tightening the skin.

Just under four months after surgery, Rebecca noted a significant change, not only in her appearance, but in how she felt. She rated her satisfaction with the appearance of her face as moving from a 3 out of 10 before surgery to a 9 out of 10 after. Now, as shown here in her photos nearly nine months out, her jawline appears more defined, her neck smoother, and her scars have healed flat and well blended.

This transformation reflects what’s possible when surgery is chosen thoughtfully, addressing the root cause of change and honoring the patient’s goals, rather than chasing trends or surface-level fixes.

A facelift is designed to address structural aging, not surface-level skin damage. It lifts and repositions the deeper facial tissues that sag and descend with age. What it does not do is improve the surface of the skin itself.

Wrinkles, skin texture, sun damage, and fine lines are a different category of aging
entirely. Think about your own hand. Stretch it out as hard as you can, and look at your palm. Do the creases disappear? They don't. Skin etched with wrinkles behaves the same way. A facelift repositions the fat pads and deeper connective tissues that have settled with age, and it can help slightly with skin laxity, but it was never designed to erase deeply etched wrinkles or significant textural change. That requires a different approach entirely.

Dermabrasion, unlike microdermabrasion, which works superficially to remove dead surface cells, removes the deeper layers of skin in a controlled way. This treatment stimulates new collagen production as the skin heals. The result is smoother texture, softer fine lines, and improved skin quality that a facelift alone cannot create.

When Dr. Schmidt pairs a deep plane facelift with full-face resurfacing, the result
addresses aging more comprehensively.
